' • Dear Friends: We believe that the fact is well known to the majority* of our followers that Mr. Lucas, now running for the United; States Senate, was a member of the famous Bell investigating committee. He and other meinbers of the committee-- endeavored to ridicule our leader, Dr. Francis E. Townsend. Mr. Lucas' conduct in this investigation was so un- . American that it is doubtful whether any fair-minded Amer«.\ ican citizen knowing the facts could possibly support .him for election. The fact that Dr. Townsend was abused is not the important thing. It might have been your mother or father or some member of your immediate family that could have been subject to the humiliation that was heaped upon Dr. Townsend by Mr. Lucas. We recommend, to every Townsend club and all its members that they support the candidacy of Mr. Richard J. Lyons for the United States Senate. By electing Mr. ; Lyons we will then have defeated a man from whom We can expect no consideration. ^ 7 , Mr. Lyons believes that the Townsend Plan should have proper hearings before committees and if a hearing is refused, then he will fight to have it brought on the Floor of - the House apd Senate for debate and given friendly and im- • partial consideration. . ' Let every member get out every possible vote. Explain , to their friends, whel^her they are favorable or not, the, type of man Mr. Lucas is, and why their vote should be cast " for Mr. Lyons in preference to Mr. Lucas. In other words,;; let our motto always be "Support our friends and defeat ! our enemies." You can do this by getting the voters to the polls ! . Very sincerely yours, LWJ :LA -* L. W.

Again, have you any snapshots around the achoOl grounds-at the tennis court, the outdoor drinKing fountain, , the swings and seesaws, and other places where children gather? Picture your children there, and later on your snapshots will help them recall the good times they and their young friends had at school. When the children are old enough, they should have cameras of their own. A good box type camera will serve their needs admirably, and it is hard to imagine a better gift The growing boy or girl will delight in picturing friends, school activities, school scenes -- and inexpensive cameras are so simple now that any child can operate them. At home at night, "study" pictures are worth while, and you can make them with any camera. All you need is a couple of inexpensive photo bulbs, and a roll of fast super sensitive panchromatic film. Why not try to keep the full story of the school year in pictures? Some day these school-time snapshots will he highly valued possessions. * ' • John van Guilder. trACATION is over, mi a new 1 * school year has begun. The hectic rush and bustle at breakfast, the patter of small feet down long school halls as class bells ring, and much poring over texts and notebooks under the living-room lamp at night.
