Cí?,!cJ"t!in¥ series of broudcatttH, the
1 wentieth Century club, whose theme the past yeur has
been Democracy On The Air," yesterday entertained with
its annual spring luncheon in the Federated Club Rooms,
Programs, miniature replicas of the club's yearbook,
featured at distinctive red, white and blue design, and also
served as place cards for the event.
Mrs. J. M. Kibble served
as commentator for the
"broadcast."
Fink crepe paper served ax a
cloth for the beautifully decorated
U-shaped table with the "radio offi-
cials" table centered with a frng-
rant bouquet of «pírea and pink
iris. The ame floral motif was ac-
cepted on the performers' table.
Launching the "broadcast" was
Mrs. Sam Fort, who sang "The
Wren" and "The Wind's In the
South Today'1, accompanied by
Mrs Sam Watson.
Next to go on the "ether waves"
was Mr . W F. Saeger, who «ave tinies
a lengthy report of the recent dis- ¡
•tractions given them in enclosed
envelopes, which wen* not opened
until a given signal. Such im-
promptu performances were seen
as a trio playing "Chop Sticks,"
an a cappella choir giving a
silent version of "Home On The
Range", and a musical reading of
Mary Had A Little Lamb."
In expressing "thanks" to all
those who have appeared on the
Twentieth Century programs this
year, the club especially wishes to
thank Bandmaster Clyde Rowe,
who has released pupils during
school hours to appear several

A number scheduled on the
"broadcast", was a selected reading
by Mrs. W. .1 Adklns, but because
of conditions "beyond the com-

kins was unable to be present.
A highlight of the entire pro-
gram was Miss Helen McDonald's
rendition of "Rhapsody Hongroise
No. 2" i Franz Liszt', a sixteen-
page intricate selection, which she
played from memory. For an en-
core Miss McDonald played Hun-
garian Phapsod.v No I."
Next to take her place before
the "microphone" was Mrs. Tom
Sappihgton, only charter member
of the club, who installed the new
officers, likening them to impor-
tant items that go into making a
beautiful edifice.

18 Students In Borger High School
Employed Through D. 0. Program
Mrs. John Adamson of Sher-
man is visiting her daughter, Mrs.
M. F. Rawlings of Phillips, after
attending the Eastern Star school
Of instruction in Amarillo this
week Mrs Adamson is a grand
officer ol the Eastern Star.
Petroleum refining is the larg-
est manufacturing industry in Tex-
as, representing 41 per cent of all
manufactures in this state.
(Editor's Notei This is anoth-
er of a serlos of article* on Di-
versified Occupations, prepared
exclusively for the Borger Her-
ald by E. H. Pennington, In-
s true tor in the loeal high school.)
Like the ever-widening concen-
tric circles caused by a pebble
being thrown into a,still pool of
water, the Diversified Occupations
Program is constantly expanding
to take in more and more differ-
ent occupations. Unlike seme of
the other coursss in our high
school curriculum, Diversified Oc-
cupations cannot become the least
bit static, It must be in a oever-
ending state of revision, both as
to course content and as to occu-
pations In which students are be-
ing trained.
At the present time the D. O.
program in Borger High School, in
cooperation with the various em-
ployers, has In training 4 students
in grocery stores, 2 in clothing
stores, I in automobile parts, 1 in
an auto machine shop, 1 in an
auto top and body shop, 3 in of-
fice work, 2 working as doctor's1
assistants, 2 with motion picture
theaters, and 2 in hardware stor-
es, making 0 different occupations
in which the students are receiving
training.
Each and everyone of us is well
aware of the fact that there are i
considerably more than nine dlf-'
ferent occupations being success-'
fully carried on in Borger. There
arc many other worthwhile occu-
pations to be found here for which
we can train students, n partial
list ol them will include automo-
bile mechanics, machinists, car-
penters, cabinet makers, lumber
yard material men, dry cleaning
and re-dying, drafting, electric ap-
pliance service, electric motor and
armatuer service laboratory tech-
nician, meat cutting and butcher-
ing, plumbing, printing, radio
service and repair, refrigeration
service, and sheet metal work.
None of these represent a type
of work to which gravitate those
people who have no definite occu-
pation but are classed as manuel
laborers. They dc. however rep-
resent definite, sharply defined
occupations in which are employ-
ed many successful workers —
occupations in which there are in-
finite possibilities either as an em-
ploye or an employer.
In an effort to expand the train-
ing field, the employers are being
consulted concerning the possibi-
lities of a part-time employe be-
ing taken on for training. Some
students are being placed now,
who will work after school dis-
misses in the afternoon and on
Saturday, and who will be kept on
during the summer if that is at
all possible. When school begins
next September, these students
will have had a few months of
job training and will enter the
Diversified Occupations Class for
a period of two years. In cases
where it is not possible to take a
student now and keep him through
the summer, employers have
agreed to take a part-time student
beginning next September.
These employers select the stu-
dent each of them wishes to start
in his place of business, but be-
fore he can make any selection
the coordinator must present him
with a list of those students eligi-
ble to receive this training. A list
has been compiled containing the
names of those students who still
have two more years in school,
who are not going to college upon
graduation, but do have to find
employment.
Conferences are being held with
these? students to find out what
type of employment they desire:
their grades are thoroughly check-
ed; their teachers are consulted
concerning their progress, initia-
tive, reliability, ability to follow
directions, willingness to work,
loyalty, neatness, and cooperation
with others.
If the student measures up to the
standard that is set up, his name
will be submitted to employers
who hove employes doing the
kind of work the student Is inter
ested in.
The employer is furnished witn
all the necessary personal historv
of the student in order that a wise
selection can be made. Thus a con-
certed effort is being made to eli
minute wasted tirrte, effort, and
hopes in giving the beginner a
start in his chosen occupation.

T. B. Quiz
1. Do you have tuberculosis?
Answer — Unless you've recent-
ly had a chest x-,ay don't b too
sure of your "no" to thai ques-
tion. Tuberculosis is insidious. It
can be well entrenched in the body
before symptoms appear In fact,
when symptom* do appear they
mean that the body is losirg its
fight with the tuberculosis germ —
a fight that may have been going
on lor months, even years, with-
out the victim knowing anything
about it.
2. What causes tuberculosis?
Answer — The tuberculosis
germ, the luberculc bacillus, to
give its right name, is the one
and only cause of the disease. The
germ spreads from the sick to the
well. It enters the body mostly
through the nose or the mouth.
3. Is tuberculosis inherited'.'
Answer — No, the disease is not

Child Specialist To Address P.-T. A.
At Stinnett Friday—Public Invited
The subject, "Family Relations"
will be discussed in a talk by Miss
Dosca Hale, specialist in parent1
education and child development j
for the A. & M. College Extension |
Service, at tlje Stinnett Parent-1
Teacher meeting Friday afternoon |
at 3 o'clock in the high school
building.
The public is invited.
Miss Hale will discuss the var-
ious signs of a wholesome person-
alty, as follows:
1. Are many of us so com-
pletely absorbed in the world of
the grown-up that we can't imag-
ine ourselves in the child's place
and therefore find it very difficult
to understand our children, and
to deal Justly with them?
2. Do most of us think of our
children as individuals with dif-
ferent interests, and different ca-
pacities, who need to be treated
differently?
3. Do many of us attempt to
pattern our children's lives after
our own or rather urge them to do
the things we wanted to do, or
have done?
4. What are the dangers of
pointing to some child in the fam-
ily or person in the community
and saying "Why can't you do as

well as he?"
5. Do we enjoy our work and
put ourselves into it in such a
way that children and young peo-
ple catch our enthusiasm, and at
an early age know the joys of a
job well done?
6. Are the very small children
around us gradually learning from
dally experiences, to think, judge,
and make decisions for them-
selves?
7. Are we helping our children
to build up their own rot of val-
ues or philosophy of life—a way of
thinking and feeling about things?
8. Are we making it easy for
children to build up their own re-
ligious views and ideals or do we
try to impose our own views and
ideals upon them?
9. Are we so busy with other
things that we hand over the care
and training of our children to
others outside the home?
10. Do we admit the inheri-
tance which we have handed down
to our children, and do we some-
times wrongly accuse inheritance
of things caused by environment,
and which could have been cor-
rected?

with tuberculosis ir. the fafnily and
the strictest precautions are not
taken against the spread of the
germs, it would be strange ii oth-
er members of the family did not

4. Can tuberculosis be cured?
Answer — The answer is an en-
couraging "Ves.'' Tuberculosis us-
ually is curable if it is detected
and treated soon enough.
5 What are the modern meth-
ods of diagnosis''
Answer — The tuberculin test,
a skin test which shows whether
or not tuberculosis germs are in
the body. Many adults do have
(he (terms. The chest x-ray will
show whether or not the disease
has started up actively in the body.
(j. What is the proper treatment
for tuberculosis?
Answer — Rest, riot just taking
things easy, but absolute bed rest
for 24 hours a day under good
medical supervision, prelerably in
