She just sorta threw a can of soup in the direction of the children and kept on writing names on notices. After Mutual, the chairman whose idea was being be-ing used, came by and picked up A VERY UP-TO-DATE TALE called "FIASCO" Once upon a time, there was a PTA President who was enthusiastic enthusias-tic about PTA. This PTA President surrounded herself with chairmen who matched her in enthusiasm. What these chairmen lacked in knowledge of PTA they more than notices and names and she and made up in enthusiasm.

AUXILIARY HOLDS MEETING The regular meeting of the A- her business. Before every PTA meeting, she always intended to drop a card to every Eiishop of every ward of Des-eret Des-eret Stake to announce the meeting meet-ing at church gatherings. Somehow, two days before meeting date, she would find it was too late to get a card in the mail with the information. infor-mation. So, off she would trot to the local paper with a notice. There : announcing the meeting and that she would plead with the editor to plus the personal notice should as- the notices so they could be handled hand-led more quickly at the post office and sacking them, she carried them to the family car. Her husband, who was busily ogling ZSA ZSA Gabor on T.V. said "yes he would mail them in the morning. The chairman had assured the Executive Committee that she would place a notice in the paper sure a very large crowd out. The next time she thought of the notice not-ice was five p.m. Wednesday and too late to get anything in the paper. But, with two or three pats on her back and a smug feeling; of self-satisfaction she consoled herself her-self with the knowledge that it really would be all right as everyone every-one would surely have their mailed notices in plenty of time.' merican Legion Auxiliary was held Wednesday night prior to the post meeting. Lois Bracken, Auxiliary President, conducted the meeting. After brief preliminaries, Mrs. Bracken Brac-ken introduced Fay Jacobsen, Head of Science Dept. of Delta High School as guest speaker. He spoke on radiation fallout. The next meeting of the Auxiliary Auxili-ary will be held the third Wednes-dady Wednes-dady in November. Members are urged to bring their Christmas gifts for the Veteran's Hospital at this November meeting. 9 r s -a t - .. ! v - y: i Fine Arts Guild Fine Arts Guild will meet Thurs day. Oct. 26. 4:00 p.m. at Delta Elementary School for a discussion on "Ways of Listening to Music" by Prof. Jay Welch of the Univer sity of Utah. Prof. Welch is professor of music at the university and Assistant Director of the famed Tabernacle Choir. All members will want to attend this meeting. A cordial in vitation to any interested persons is extended by Joyce Long, club president. MISS ROCHELLE CROPPER Mictrothed "please put this in". This went on and on she would barely make the deadline. Now one of the more enthusiastic enthusias-tic chairmen of the group came up with a very good idea of sending personal notices to every student's parents of Delta Jr. Hi and Delta High School. She even designed the notice. The chairman, whose job it was to notify the public of PTA meetings, had to be pushed into accepting the idea but she went along. This was Monday of last week. Tuesday she spent more time at the schools than she did at home. She left at 9:00 a,m. to approach one of the principals about securing secur-ing the names of all students of that particular schooL He arranged for three young girls to help com pile the list. Next, the chairman went to the other school, dragged a student from his class to draw cartoons illustrating each forthcoming forth-coming PTA meeting. She had Mrs. Snow's dept. in an uproar for quite a while. BUT THOSE NOTICES HAD TO BE PRINTED. She had left dirty dishes, unmade beds, cobwebs, dirty laundry, ironing iron-ing all in the name of CIVIC DUTY. By now, one would have thought that she had dreamed up the whole idea herself. She arranged for friends to help her with addressing and folding each notice. She called Hinckley and left a message with a friend to please see that the Secretary brought $15.00 worth of three cent stamps to the Executive meeting that afternoon. She wheedled whee-dled one of the principals into letting let-ting her take home all the student registration cards to complete the mailing list. Durina the Executive meetina. everyone present aot in the act. them into individual doorways can All were busily folding, addressing, come from nowhere.

Thursday morning and many pails of Mr. Clean - diluted - with- water - and - much - elbow -grease came and went. Thursday afternoon, carpet cleaning was the order of the day and finally at five she stopped, cleaned up and went to a grocery store. Her conscience was bothering her no end at the way she had fed her family the night before. This night she would feed them well in plenty of time to get the dishes done before going to PTA. As she was putting the groceries into the car, she spied two sacks in the back seat that looked supiciously familiar. Running Run-ning around the car, jerking the door open and tearing one of the sacks apart she became hysterical. Sure enough there were the PTA notices still not mailed. Not given to swearing, she ran into the local paper office and yelled "My G-, Bob, the notices aren't mailed and the meeting starts at 7:30 QED. EPILOGUE: Just because one gets closer to forty than thirty-five everyday is no reason to think all the petty meanness has disappeared. The first thought that ran through the Publicity Chairman's- mind upon discovering the notices still not mailed was "Who can I blame it Helen Mar McCullough Camp, Daughters of Utah Pioneers, will meet Friday, Oct. 20, at 2:30 p.m., at the home of Mrs. Lu Swalberg, Delta. Hostesses will be Mrs. Swalberg, Swal-berg, Bee Willden, Jean Harris and Emily Bunker. She knew what ZSA ZSA does to her husband. She should have taken tak-en him by the shoulder and shook him to make sure that he understood under-stood her. None of these things did she do. She wrote a tale of woe and took it to PTA with her and pleaded for two minutes of time to read it. And any day now you will see me taking 300 notices into the Delta Del-ta Post Office and slipping them into the letter slot hoping that Ed Miller- and Cleo Whicker are elsewhere! For an interesting T.V. program try channel four, Sunday night, 10:30 p.m., for "Way of Thinking". The program is a discussion by Dr. Albert Burke on the Dynamics of Communism. It is very good. Sunday, Dr. Burke was stressing the fact that our policy makers had better believe that Communists Commu-nists mean it when they say they will rule the world. Such a thought is in every piece of Communist literature. Something that I've been trying to say for sometime and I find it very difficult to put into words me and my two syllable word vocabulary vo-cabulary has something to do with the purpose behind Communist Commu-nist atrocities. I'm going to try it right now. A Communist believes in Corn- Mr. and Mrs. Lester W.

Everything he reads, says, or does is in the name of the "Glorious Future". The word "I" is a forgotten word in Communist dogma. "We" or "Party" or "Proletariat" "Pro-letariat" are the words used. But, a Communist being a person with dreams of a better world in his view would like to see this "Glorious "Glor-ious Future" become the "Glorious Present". A Communist would like to see this world Communist-ruled TODAY in his life time. From the moment a person accepts the Communist Com-munist doctrine any and everything every-thing to help make this the "Glorious "Glor-ious Present" is used. Therefore, atrocities are committed in the name of the CAUSE. It's just something that I've been trying to figure out for sometime. For an article that makes you practically ill all over the place try "My Life On the Blacklist" by Ring Lardner, Jr. in the Oct. 14 issue of the Saturday Evening Post. This famous or infamous writer (depending (de-pending on how well you like Ring lardner, Jr.) is telling of his career since he declined to testify as to whether he was a communist or not in 1947.
