But â€" we can build pressâ€" ure groups which are thoroughly representative of the people, to take the place of pressure groups which fre out to serve special inâ€" terests, to the detriment of the public welfare. (Taken from ‘a memo published by the National League of Women Voters.) good. The average citizen can get in there and punch between elecâ€" tions through his own pressure group or groups. He can keep his representative posted on what he wants. He can keep himself postâ€" ed on what he wants. He can keep himself posted on how his representative is voting on what he wants. y. 0 I In our states and local communâ€" ities there have been few true pubâ€" lic interest groups. The League of Women Voters is one of.the very few on the national scene. Do you know which groups in your town or state might be called true public interest groups? If you are one of the people who think pressure groups are bad, the only_ answer is to help make them The Public Interest groups are not just those groups that claim to have the public interest at heart. . Many of the special interâ€" est groups claim that. The public interest groups are made up of a crossâ€"section of our citizens. There are no special â€"requirements for membership." They can claim to be true public interest groups almost in proportion to the degree that they are a real cross section. They are not merely "doâ€"gooders" who think they are doing something which is good for all of the other people. _ We are . learning that right solutions just don‘t stick unâ€" less lots of people understand them and support them. Public interâ€" est groups work to build that supâ€" port. ! IS POLITICS YOUR JOB? You will say that some of the *‘special interest groups are highâ€" ly desirable, depending on your slant on life. If you are a teacher you will probably be for the Natâ€" ional Education association and its stand on federal aid to education. If you are a manufacturer, you may be for the National Associaâ€" tiion of Manufacturers and its stand on fedcral taxation. If you are a metal worker, you will probâ€" ably support the position of your union .on legislation affecting laâ€" bor. : Each of these special interâ€" ést groups has a right to present its own point of view in a democâ€" racy. .We wouldn‘t have it any other way. _ But when we judge their political action we must take into account that they are made up of people who have the same point of view about a problem, beâ€" cause of a common profession or vocational outlook on life. Political Pressureâ€" groups" in our democracy,. We have a picture in our heads of their operation behind the scenes, manipulating things, pulling poliâ€" tical wires, putting the heat on senators and congressmen â€" in general, interfering with democraâ€" ey and keeping the people from getting what they want. . There is someâ€"truth in this pic« ture of pressure groups. But they serve a purpose in our democracy. The problem is not how to do withâ€" out them, but how to make them most helpful and most representaâ€" tive of the people. After all, our representatives can‘t keep in touch with 140 million individuals about current problems. We all have our own ideas about what government should do, but we know that at some point we have to begin to throw in our lot with others who are more or less of the same mind â€" that is if. we want to be most effective. You can‘t say glibly that pressâ€" ure groups are "good" or "bad." You will want to study them to be sure just what you are doing when you join any one of them. If you look at them carefully, you will recognize two kinds: (1) the specâ€" inl interest groups and (2) the public interest groups, 2 weeks from Chicago $430 Otherâ€"trips by AIR â€" RAIL .

P. 5804 Schools and churches will be having their usual Christmas celeâ€" brations and parties. Let them be happy ones by avoiding the tragâ€" edy of fire. PFoliow the simple rules that we have enumerated in this _ article and that everyone Christmas fire hazards are not confined to the home. _ Public places are often just as dangerous, or more so, if proper precautions are not taken. Most every public place is decorated and crowded during the holidays, and fire in any crowded place is liable to cause a panic. Packing material and rubbish should not be allowed to accumulate in stores at this time. Aisles and exits should be kept unobstructed and fire extinâ€" guishers ready to operate. .. Heat operated toys and new elecâ€" trical gadgets that do not carry the underwriter‘s label are quite apt to be the cause of our making your home a Christmas visit. They We doubt if there is anyone foolish enough to put a lighted candle on his Christmas tree, but if there is, we‘ll plan to come after his catches on fire. Another way, just about as sure to burn down the house, is to pour gasoline on the curtains and light them. It‘s in the same class with candles on a dry tree. § Christmas is the time of year when there is an abundance â€" of rubbish in every home, such as wrappings, empty paper boxes, cotâ€" ton batting, decorations and such. These make excellent fuses to start fires with and add greatly to the fire hazard in your home. Make it a habit to burn them up before they burn you up, putting them in the furnace where they belong. (Continued from page 5) shall we come to on Christmas day? That dried to a crisp tree in your parlor, all trimmed up with pretty inflammable decorations, is pretty apt to burn if you give it half a chance. Or those worn out Christmas tree lights that never did have an underwriter‘s labe] on them, present a serious fire hazâ€" Visitors are invited and welâ€" comed at these junior workshops at any time. Five to ten projects a year, sometimes more, are made by each child, many of the projects having a desirable correlation of art, soâ€" cial science, reading, or arithmetic. The fee of fifty cents a year per pupil helps pay for the cost of maâ€" terials used by the children in their projects. â€"The parents of Highland _ Park consider fifty cents little indeed for a part of their children‘s schooling that gives not only the joy of eonstrucâ€" tion but also that immeasurable necessityâ€"self confidence. There‘s another gain, important in its own right, and that is an attitude toâ€" ward handwork that all the readâ€" ing and theorizing in the world could not give to the individual. If from small childhood up, he has seen what could be done with his hands, every child will have a healthier respect for all who can use both brains«and hands with equal facility. Because such benefits had been envisioned by the board of educaâ€" tion, manual arts came into the primary grades of Elm Place and Green Bay Road schools, and stayed. WHOSE HOUSEâ€" Manual Artsâ€" (Continued from page 5) The decisions of what to make individually come from many things, like spring, suggestion from home, Christmas, or the inâ€" structor, who does some plain and fancy guiding towards projects that will give the particular expeâ€" rience needed. Reading suggests transportation, farms, Viking inâ€" terests. Spring ushers in nesting shelves, PLEASE signs for newly seeded Jawns, â€" house . numbers. Christmas buiges doorstops, trays, hurricane lamp and toys. Generally speaking, projects are not kept within definite grade levâ€" els. The informality of our proâ€" cedures makes it possible for the child to create the thing needed with a crudeness or a skill in diâ€" rect relation to his own stage of development. The farm wagon of a fourth grade boy should be 3 betterâ€"planned and executed piece of work than . that of a second grade child making a wagon also, but the educational growth and satisfactions to the child along the way are relatively the same. No marks or grades are given for this work. â€" They are not needâ€" ed, for evaluation takes place conâ€" versationally both along the way and when the work is finished.
