The space for ‘comments’ was also quite ade- quate and it enabled the guests to praise or compliment their hostesses or try their wit. The staff punster for instance who was in fine fettle, made one long rolling pun of every item with a complimentary turn at the end. Moreover, since the house was somewhat small and the invited the School Board, vary from be- ginners and advanced courses in to golf i; and from beginner's English to college credits, and not only does one have a choice of subjects but a choice of extent as well. That is, there are ten and twenty week courses, so that one may begin taking, say ao course in ‘household repairs’ for up to Christmas and course in ‘music appreciation’ after Christ- mas. It was one of these short and many had to return home early or go on to other destina- tions, the affair took on the aspect of a ‘continuing party’. Those who wished to stay, stay- ed; those who could not, stirred the pot of fun for a while and left their place to later comers, and what was most important, everyone had a good time. A GOOD RECEIFE In this way a fairly large party was arranged with not too courses that our two hostesses | had taken, ‘Menus in Party Dress’. It was | given by one of the home eco-} nomics teachers of the city and was intended to show how to prepare new and attractive ways. to prepare dishes and menus for a party.

REUTHER’S BRIGHT IDEAS By Lewis Milligan “ Svalter P, Reuther, presidens} of the United Auto Workers, has Proposed that the automobile in- dustry divide its profits with un- ion members, Not so long ago Mr. Reuther conceived the brilliant idea of securing a guaranteed an- share. in the profits of the in- dustry. Instead of profits there may be losses which would be borne by the companies and their shareholders. Mr. Reuther does not propose that his union should share such losses. UAW funds are’now said to total not less than $50 million to which: $20 million was taken from members by the special strike fund levy in the raising of monthly dues from $2.50 to $5.00, ich Mr, Reuther proposes to that the wanes during those periods, and should not suffer the loss of asa fee for union membership. Since: there are not likély to. be any serious he was so sure of the of the sikes while the industry is in annual wages that he announced it would be the chief item in future collective bargaining. To provide the means for enforcing this demand, union dues were raised from $2.50 to $5.00 month- ly, in order to build up a UAW strike fund. But the bright prospect or promise of a guaranteed annual wage has faded; it faded in the light or of the the un- tea members might well call for asharing of the extra increments from the strike levy.’ But Mr. Reuther does not believe in that kind of profit-sharing; it comes too close to home, That money is needed for “union security”, which guarantees an annual wage or business recessions, While he is in the mood for fact that there could be no guar- antee of sufficient annual: trade annual wage, A‘ in motor cars to provide for ali ing up bright ideas for the future benefit of union members, Mr., Reuther should reflect upon the causes of the present decline tributory plan was adopted, ou it was merely a form of out- of- work relief.

Mr. Reuther has now ad- vanced another bright idea, —| ‘an annual sharing of profits among union.members, This pro- posal comes at a time when the sale of cars has. fallen off and of auto union are out of work.
