Iu a mass -failure to exercise the
power to vote in the last presides
tial election, more than half the
eligible voters stayed away from
the polling places. This made it
possible for only some 24 percent
of registered voters to place Truman in the white house. Local citizens were as guilty as the national
average, with only a handful of
persons casting their ballots.
The patriotic Boy Scouts and
adult civic leaders are determined
that this sorry showing shall not
be repeated—if vivid notice of election day responsibilities can help
urge people to the election booths.
Throughout the Nation, inost of
the organizations Cub Scouts, Boy
Scouts and Explorers numbering
over two million, are expected to
visit 30,000,000 homes in their nonpartisan campaign.
The Scouts "Get Out the Vote"
Campaign is sponsored jointly With,
the Freedoms Foundation. Many
of the Nation's leaders of all political parties have endorsed the
Scouts' efforts to further the cause
of good citizenship by encouraging
more citizens to have a part in selecting the Nation's leaders.
Officials believes that the Liber-
ty Bell message distribution by the
Scouts will be the largest single
job of its kind ever done in the
nation.
The 50,000 hangers allocated to
the Valley Trails" Council, which
has its headquarters in "'Saginaw,
will be distributed as follows, Saginaw County, 30,000; Tuscola County, 7,000; Gratiot County, 6,000;
Isabella County, S,000; and Clave
County, Z.OO0. Definite territory assignments have been made for each
of the 148 Scout Units and in most
instances these include all of the
rural residences in the county a3
well as those in cities towns and
villages. The distribution will be
made by the boys under the direction of their local leaders. All of
those participating will he awarded a pocket piece by the "Freedoms
Foundation, •commemorating the
event.
An accurate count made in each
of the districts has revealed that
there are between 57,500 and 5 .00
residences in the five county area.
As soon as this was discovered, an
appeal was made for additional
hangers, but the supply had been
exhausted; so plans had to be adjusted accordingly. The 50,000
available have been spread uniformly so that no one area or segment of the Council territory will
be missed completely.
The Cuhs, Scouts, Explorers and
Leaders hope that the citizens, ot
the country will heed the plea
i printed on the bell and act accerd-
ingly. .;

St. Cecilia's School Observing
American Education Week
St. Cecilia's Scho. children are
planning to put forth an all-out effort to make American Education
Week a huge success.
The spirit of patriotism is the
greatest motivating power to urge
on to fulfillment any project in
American education. Hence, plans
for American Education Week are
well organizfed and carefully planned. Definite assignments are taken by different teachers with their,
classes to give a display of the'
work in the school. An open house
for the public will be announced at
a later date.
The theme of the patriotic display is "A Day At St. Cecilia's". A
grpup of pictures which will be
displayed will give the observer a
good idea of a typical day in the
school life of our children. The
series of pictures will show the
pupils' entering the church, where*
our day really begins with the holy
Sacrifice of the Mass. Flag raising
follows, then scenes through the
morning classes, cafeteria service
at noon, recess period, afternoon
sessions, .dismissal, safety squad
service; and the" day's termination
with the family Rosary at night,
The eighth and seventh-grade
classes are preparing a school assembly, the high lights'Of Which
are a voting demonstration and
the finale, - "I. Am tjie United
States," which .will include alt important professions in our American democracy. Hovering over- all
will be the Mag of Freedom, symbol of faith, hope, and charity.
A very tangible pi'oof -of the
creative ability of the modern age
may be seen iH the construction 61
"the little red schoolhouse" in
contrast with the up-to-date school
of today which was achieved by
tbe sixth grade.
Realizing that the strength and
happiness of a nation depend o.
the health of that nation, the fifth
and fourth grades are making tv_
appropriate health and music posters.
A "Book Fair" will also be held
in the school during American Education Week.
