Mrs. Nellie Knudson, 2562 Van Buren, today is probably the happiest mother in Ogden. She received a telegram from the war department stating her son. Pvt. Lyle G. Knudson, of the U. S. Air Corps is a prisoner of the Japanese somewhere in the Philippines. A year ago Mrs. Knudson was Informed her son was missing, and last month another telegram said he was still mission. Word that Knudson was a prisoner of the Japs came through the International Red Cross. Private Knudson, born at Portage, is a graduate of Bear River high school, and is a brother of Mrs. H. D. Thomas, formerly of this city. He enlisted in the Air Corps in 1940. The last letter to his mother, more than a year ago, revealed he was stationed at Clark field at that time. Mr. and Mrs. C. J.

THIRTY-NIN- E PLANS FOR DAY Little Princess Contest Junior Baseball FOR CACHE AND BOX Civic Club Plans Legion To Sponsor C0LING PRICES SET NUMBER TREMONTON CITY, UTAH, THURSDAY, JUNE 17, 1943 children, of which Mr. George N. Anderson is chairman. Originally there were 25 children whose mothers said they would use a day nursery and an additional 25 for the before and after school services. However, only part of these children would use the center at any one time, because some of the mothers expected to work in the tomatoes only and some in the poultry only. Furthermore, not all the mothers could work every day. While some of the special committee members thought additional children would be enrolled, a second survey in Garland by the ledies' Relief Society failed to enlist any more. Day Care Centers are expensive to operate and even though the federal- - government will contrilf bute of the expenses, the fees charged for the attendance do not amount to enough to make up the other half. Therefore, local contributions are necessary. The Garland City Council decided there were not enough children from their town to use the Center to warrant a grant of funds. Announcements of the abandonment of the idea were made in the Relief Societies in Garland and In the First Ward in Trmenoton did one-ha- not result In any protests. Thus it seems that mothers who expect to work in the canneries have arrangements made for the care of their children, which they believe to be satisfactory. The Day Care workers for Box Elder County will visit a few women who have expressed a willingness to look after children while their mothers work. All such homes must conform to certain standards of health and sanitation. The Day Care Mother must be of suitable temperament to care for children, like them and understand their needs. Any woman wishing to apply for such work or any mother wanting day care for her child should write Mrs. Norma Queen, 1st National Bank Building, Brigham City. She will call on you at your convenience to discuss plans. Hospital News 4 -- Israel Hunsaker, who has been receiving treatment at the hospital is much improved.
