Doris MALLIN CATHERINE GILBERT Louise MARks THEY ARE OUR BOYS IN VIETNAM A sixteen year old boy in the Dallas Senior High School called us on Thursday to take exception to. the heading which’ we run weekly for the boys in Vietnam. He said that if the boys in Vietnam were old enough to die for their country, they were old enough to be called men. Why didn’t we call them men in Vietnam, instead of boys in Vietnam? We had never run into this before. Each week we pay postage on the Dallas Post, send- ing the paper without charge to the boys whose names are on the list. They are boys. They our OUR boys. are very young, eighteen or nineteen, age of maturity, which is twenty-one. It is never possible to know just what the sore spots are in anybody’s mind, especially in the mind of young folks, but there is usually some one thing that burns up anybody, and who knows what it will be? We were somewhat flabbergasted at the phone call. What we should have done was to invite him to write a letter to the editor. Maybe this boy will never have to suffer the indignity of being called a boy in print, under the heading of Boys From the Back Mountain in Vietnam. Maybe the war will be over before he is graduated from High School and reaches draft age. We hope that it will be over speedily, and that the boys will come home, safe, and without asterisks in the column to denote their death. But if he does go to Vietnam, he will probably be just as glad to get the home-town paper as the other boys who snatch at it when it is delivered. Growing up is a difficult business at the best, with- out the complications of looking forward to being drafted . or the realization that it is an adult world, run by adults, and even, by and large, by senior citizens. Want A Fresh Air Fund Child? by Mrs. Edward E. Kale Last week's article about the ee Air Fund and sits aprogram or placing city children as guests in small town homes for two weeks during the summer has caused a great deal of comment among local | families. 4 To the families who were hosts last summer, it has brought to mind all the happy incidents, the trying moments, and the lasting attach- ments of the newly formed rela- tionships. For many families it has created a great surge of interest and a good many questions. “What kind of room and entertainment must be we provide?” “My children are all small, would this be fair to them?” “My children are all in college, am I still eligible to be a host?” “What kind of families do these children come from?” “Are they poor?” “Are they friendly?” “Are they 3 . 3 frightened?” “What do they like . once any child in New York to eat? “What do they like to do?” City, between the ages of 6 and 12 The best aniwers come. from the | and whose family cannot afford to families who have known these send Shem ou of the oity for 2 hildio vacation are eligible, they come Those with small children found it Bom Sones varying from Se to be a valuable experience in shar- pe : > 0 a A Fi jos i ing, and an enriching experience | PD Sze to give SY onuaren i . the best background possible. in understanding someone new.

Can you remember the first time you ever actually felt spring? Ii you were brought up in the country, it might have been the first time since the ‘winter snows when you were allowed to run barefoot. There was no mistaking spring. The little brooks ran bank full, and the maple trees shed their red blossoms, and there were trilliums in the woods and purple violets in the meadows, and the afternoons grew longer and longer until finally there was that magic moment when the sun streamed through the northwest window at supper time, and suddenly there was no need to light the lamps. If you were a city child, spring was a little harder to diagnose. The small city squares with the goldfish pond in the center, and the ‘stern warning signs, ‘Keep off the Grass,” hinted at spring. Regi- mented rows of tulips bloomed in the plot around the monument. Then suddenly, it was here, that softness in the air, that hint of something wonderful just around the corner, that luxurious feel- ing of laziness, the knowledge that summer was actually on the way, and that school would close, and that there would be excursions on the paddle-wheel steamers down the Bay, with a whole three months to enjoy to the full. : There would be strawberry shortcake, and steamed crabs, and watermelon and sweet corn, and sudden showers wetting down the scorching bricks, and storm drains swirling with the floof@he water, and the heavenly coolness spreading through the upstairs rooms as shutters were flung wide and the house drew a long breath. Spring . . . a threshold to such a wonderful year. Spring in the Back Mountain. Spring, with small boys pelting down the street on their bicycles. Spring, with little girls jumping rope in the school gard. Spring, with white sheets billowing on the line, th®Zitening to take off into the sweet wind. Spring, with kites in the sky, and birds on:the wing. A tiny wren disputing her premises with a kitten, and coming off victorious. An empty blue eggshell on the lawn, and a mother robin aniing round trips to her nest, where three gaping mouths are open to the skies, awaiting the nourishment which they know will come. Spring, the renewal of faith, with the snows of winter forgotten. “For lo, the winter is past, the rain is over and gone; the flowers appear on the earth; the time of the singing of birds is come, and the voice of the turtle is heard in our land.” Horse-Shoe 4-H Club Returns From Dalton Show, Wreathed In Glory Horse-Shoe. 4-H Club members the Hunter Seat Championship and brought home the bacon in a big the Junior Working Hunter Cham- way from the Horse Show May 11 pionship. at the Golden Eagle School of Rid- Reb Spencer won the Stock Seat ling ‘at’ Dalton.
