The two major purposes of the auxiliary's child welfare program are to assure care and protection of the children of veterans and to improve conditions for all children. The auxiliary deals with the four basic needs of every child, physical, mental, emotional and spiritual. Hospital r e s e a r c h p r o g r a m s , s u m m e r camps, scout activities and scholarships are some of the ways in which these aims are attained. Junior Initiations At a ceremony on Monday evening, the nineteenth, the Mc- Henry unit of the auxiliary initiated eleven new junior members. These girls will step naturally into adult membership when they become of age. Those who received their pins at this cere- "hiony were Mary Pat Mraschek, Barbara Seeber, Karen Nerstad, Bernadine Reid, Charlene Reid, Elaine Vycital, Janice Mikota, Kay Anne Mikota, Suzanne Matchen, Mary Grace Meyer and Debra Lynn Meyer. Pan American Part of the program at the last meeting was taken over by Pan American activities. There was a display of Mexican and Cuban objects and also a film on Mexico. Award Dinner Miriam Miller attended a dinner at Elgin where she was presented with a certificate lauding the McHenry unit for their rehabilitation work. Miriam is chairman of this committee and has worked hard to make it a I successful year. 1 VALUE QF MILK NEED BE STRESSED, SAYS WALTER WINN Consumers will drink more milk if told the truth about its value, its price, and the economic facts of its production, Walter Winn of Richmond, president of the Pure Milk association, said recently. Speaking before a special meeting to launch a dairy promotion campaign, Winn said, "The dairy industry today must take stock of its position and move toward higher sales, better public understanding, and an expanded market." The campaign to increase milk consumption is being initiated by the Illinois Agricultural association, stated-wide Farm Bureau organization. The meeting was in the IAA offices in Chicago. Some seventy-five representatives of dairy, farm and consumer groups attended. "Although nutritionists say we should use at least 25 per cent more milk than we do, the headlines say we have too much," Winn said. daity products government storage amounts to only six pe: cent of a year's supply. "I can think of no other business where a six per cent surplus has been so disturbing to the mental attitude of 160 million people and to the price of a commodity. "We have much in our favor," Winn said. "We have a rapidlygrowing population, amounting to a new city of 50,000 each week, all of whom depend on milk for life itself. "We have a product which is not even approached by - any other food in its contribution to nutrition and health -- a product which is economical, supplying 30 per cent of our\food requirements for only 15 Ver~«nt of our food budget. "Milk is good for everyone. Let's not keep that a secret any longer. We need only tell the I truth about milk. There was | never a better time than right j now," Winn concluded. •« I _? _--. j PROCLAIM MAY 1-7 "CORRECT POSTURJt WEEK" IN STATE THE A M E R I C A N WAY "The record showg" we have been losing' ground in cotal consumption of dairy products for many years. In the 1930's the per capita consumption was about 800 pounds. Today it's 689 pounds -- 14 per cent less. "The quality of dairy products has improved since the 1930's. Dairy products have risen in price since 1940 far less than all other foods. If milk had kept pace with" the inflation of all other food prices, it would be 31 cents a quart today. Milk prices have only increased 92 per cent since 1939, while all other foods have gone up 141 per cent." Winn pointed out that we are not increasing milk production faster than the rate cf population. "The number of dairy cows decreased every year fiom 1944 to 1952, but the production per cow rose enough so that the total volume declined only two per cent. "Meanwhile, the population increased so that the amount of milk produced per capita is now much lower," he said. " . Winn said that the amount of Sftand tall! Sit tall! Walk tall! Sleep tall! Think tall! This {s a recommendation for your good health and good appearance. The government has set aside May 1 through May 7 as "National Correct Posture Week." Remarks to this effect have been entered into the Congressional Record by the Honorable Guy M. Gillette, Senator from Iowa. In further emphasis of the importance of this week, the Honorable William G. Stratton, Governor of Illinois, has issued a proclamation, at the request of the Illinois Chiropractic society, officially establishing "Correct Posture Week" in Illinois May 1 through 7. He has issued this proclamation to create an awareness in the citizens in Illinois to the relationship between good posture and good health. The purpose behind "National Correct Posture Week" is to direct public attention to the fact that correct posture pays dividends in good health and efficiency in whatever york we are called upon to do. m ( ADVERTISEMENT) At Last, Something To Cheer About Confucius, was known to his disciples as Kung.

America's Scuyl* WHAT TO DO ABOUT BLOOD STAINS In the process of living, nearly j all of us -- man, woman, or child I -- at one time or another have ' "little" accidents. A scratch, a j hasty or careless slip of the knife, j Gardening, working around the ! house, or on the car, in the I kitchen . . . whatever the circum- ! stances or the place, accidents {happen, and when they do, a blood stain on the garment worn at the moment is the result. Blood, being albuminous and saline, requires digestion to remove its stain on a garment. A living substance, blood is perhaps as complex chemically as anything you might care to name. Not only does it contain oxygen, salt, iron, manganese and %n entire host of minerals and salts, but at the same time blood from a vein also contains the carbon dioxide which it is carrying away from the body as waste. C02 is a fixative, and when venous blood stains a garment, the carbon dioxide immediately begins fixing the stain. Here are the suggested precautions: As with nearly all stains, if the garment is washable, sponge or rinse out in CLEAR COOL WATER. Nothing else. If the garment is a cleanablc one, LEAVE IT COMPLETELY ALONE. And please tell os about the stains when you bring the garment in. Because, when you do tell us, we can employ "spot-digesting" techniques known to the cleaning industry in order to remove the spot before standard cleaning procedures are undertaken. And above all try to bring a blood stained garment in as soon as possible after staining. The reason for this is that the sooner the garment is spotted and cleaned after the staining has occurred, the better tho odds for getting the stain out completely. Remember, for good cleaning and better spot-removal, always BRING IT Tft - RAINBOW CLEANERS, North Front Street j around the turner north of National tS^JEHONE 927 for pickup service or save 10% cash ft carry.
