When she and her husband
moved into the lovely farmhouse
that tops a small hill she shortly
decided that the land and barn
must be used..
Not being of a
haying and plowing mind she
started a day camp. It was not
long before she mused upon the
fact that full use was not being
made of the barn and surrouridding buildings., Late afternoons
and evenings they were empty.
Being an actress herself the logical answer was a summer theatre
added to the camp and so she
dovetailed a theatre in the
scheme of activities.

Plastic Garment Bags
-usefu I home accessory
or dangerous hazard?
A STATEMENT OF TEMPORARY POLICY
by KILLIP LAUNDERING COMPANY
Experience shows that practically every great industrial innovation
encounters certain unforeseen roadblocks. Do you know that when the
first horseless carriages were introduced early in the century they
were condemned by many as a pub-lic menace? Some people even went
so far as to insist on municipal ordinances denying the automobiles
the use of the public roads.
Now, because a few isolated
cases of baby suffocation which
have been widely publicized, we,
and the dry cleaning industry_ as a
whole, are caught in an impasse. A
short time ago American industry
made available to us one of the
most novel protective plastics ever
to emerge from the chemical laboratory. The delicate film is chemically inert, hence has found wide
application not only for packaging
foodstuffs, but also as a protective
covering for dry-cleaned garments.
The crystal clear transparency
makes it ideal for that purpose.
But unfortunately, the delicate
plastic film possesses certain electrostatic properties. If carelessly
left within reach of a small infant,
the child might innocently cover its
face with the material and, on inhalation,
shut off respiration.
That's the "big hazard." Yet the
valued plastic garment bag is actually no m·ore of a menace than
would be sharp tools, insecticides
or dangerous medicinals.
The
"danger " is paten tial only if a
child's mother or nurse fails to
place them out of the reach of little
children.
Killip Laundering Company has
been delivering dry-cleaned garments in the transparent plastic
bags for many months. All of our
customers have welcomed them enthusiastically.
However, because
of the widespread furore and alarm
over isolated cases of suffocation,
we have to make a definite decision
-whether to continue or discontinue
plastic bags.
While the reported
fatalities have been greatly magnified, we have to recognize that the
suffocation of even a single child
is one case too many.
Accordingly,
in deference to
families where there are small children, wisdom seems to dictate that
our policy should be to revert to the
use of the conventional paper bag
we have used for so many years.
This will be only a temporary policy
because we are assured by both
the film manufacturers and ihe bag
makers themselves·that they arealready hard at work to produce a
"safe" protective bag that will embody all the good features of the
transparent cover we are temporarily abandoning. As quickly as this
new "safe" covering is perfected,
Killip will be the first to make it
available to its customers.
We shall be most grateful to our
friends for their patience during the
transition.
Meanwhile, many customers who insist on receiving their
dry-cleaned garments in a plastic
film cover will be cheerfully accommodated if they will make
known their wishes to our routemen
or notify our office.

LETTER
Dear Sir:
While at first glance there may
.be no connection between the
letter from Mrs. leRoy Cooke
on page 11 of your June 11th issue, deploring the fact that
watchers of the Memorial Day
Parade did not salute the flag
of the United States as it passed
and the report by Abbie Utz on
page 12 of the same issue regarding "World Literature" and
"Business English" as taught at
BCHS, a little reflection on the
matter will show the latter is
directly responsible for the condition lvtrs. Cooke deplores.
The people responsible for
destroying learning in our--public:
schools base their teaching on
the hypothesis that if you love
your own Country you must, of
necessity, hate all others. Nothing could be further from the
truth but it provides a short,
Quickly Cut to Your Specifications snappy slogan for destroying love
of their own Country in our
children.

There is, of course, no objection to the children or adults
of the community sharing with
the rest of us their opinions and
experiences in other lands but
when, as reported by Mrs. Utz,
this process becomes a part of
the curriculum in our school
and is based on the fallacious
reasoning set forth above, the
process becomes political action
for ''World Government'' disguised
as "public education."
Also, please remember that
in the auditorium of our High
School, the banner depicting the
"Web of World Collectivism"
(United Nations Flag) shares the
place of honor with the flag of
honor With the flag of the Republic of the United States of
America.
