This Monday a regular meeting was held. First, we had the Color Guard ceremony with Joan Durland and Lucille Nickels as Color Bearers and Mary Douglas and Agnes Miller as the Color Guards. We gave the salute, promise and slogan, and then reviewed the ten Scouting laws. After the Color Guard was dismissed, Miss Larkin reminded us to hand in our tests and get our badges checked, as Investiture will be held early in April. She showed us several examples of good badge work, and urged us to be ready next Monday to indicate the number of badges we will expect to earn this year. The remainder of the meeting was spent in knitting. Miss Larkin and Miss Bauer reported that we were to. knit eighty squares for the afghan for the Red Cross. We now have completed about fifty. The Girl Scouts are still hoping that they might obtain some yarn from our readers and friends. ' Our meeting closed with "Run Along Home" and "Taps." JEAN NICKELS, Scribe. The train was pulling out and the old gentleman was just settling down comfortably. Suddenly the door burst open, and a young man tumbled into the coach and seated himself, panting and puffing opposite. The latter looked on with disapproval.

St. Mary's -- SI the United States statutes do not prohibit the employment of aliens by private employers engaged in National Defense industries, Manager Norma Scott of the United States Employment Service office in Woodstock advised one day this week. "It is the stated policy of the Federal government that there shall be no discrimination in the employment of workers in defense industries because of race, creed, color or national origin," said Manager Scott. "As to the law, there is only one restriction: In the case of secret, confidential, or restricted government contracts, and in the case of contrates for aircraft parts or accessories, the employer must secure permission from the head of the Federal department concerned for the employment of aliens. "There are no other Federal laws limiting the employment of aliens by private employers in national defense industries, and there are no Federal laws whatsoever limiting the employment of foreign-born American citizens of any particular national origin." In many instances, uforeigners" who ha^e been turned away from jobs because of some vague suspicion that they may be disloyal aliens now have sons serving in our army and navy. Listed among those who died fighting off treacherous attacks upon Manila and Pearl Harbor were men named Wagner and Peterson and Monzo and Rossini and Mueller and Rasmussen, Manager Scott pointed out. "Our country needs the skills and services of every able-bodied and loyal person, citizen or alien, and to deprive it of siich services is an economic waste," she said. All employers are urged to make a thorough investigation of government regulations befane establishing any hard and faat rales barrios from employment.
