PracTical paTrioTism was The Theme oT our evening school This year, and over TiTTeen hundred local cfTizens donned work cloThes To learn This business oT preparedness down To The lasT square knoT. Under The supervision oT The evening school principal, Mr. Reid, groups meT every week To sTudy The besT CLYDE C. REID' T, gn si':zl. way To grease an engine, or adiusT a gas mask. Two of The mosT popular women's classes were home nursing and TirsT aid, and many a son or husband who had borne up bravely under TournigueTs and respiraTion, Tled in horror when Mom goT ouT her TracTion splinTs.

WiTh a clear undersTanding of Their adopfed counTry, They were well prepared To Take up Their responsibiliTies as warTime Americans. ln addiTion To regular evening classes, Two groups oT Torums were presenTed To enable The public To arrive aT a beTTer undersTanding oT The world in which we live. OuTsTandA ing speakers Trom The realms oT journalism and educaTion discussed America's parT in The war and in The peace To come. W'
