Strengthening of
Family Stressed
At P-TA Meeting
Stressing five points on what can
be done in a community to enrich
family life, the Rev. Fred McGinnis
addressed the Juneau Parent
Teachers’ Association last night on
the family in the community.
The suggested program he point
ed out is that: a study group could
be set up to discover ways in which
civic organizations, schools and
Churches may educate for marriage
and family living;
A family-life institute could be
sponsored wherein subjects related
to family-life can be explored and
critical problems discussed;
A community council could be
formed to survey local needs, re
sources and ways of cooperating for
strengthening family life; j
Program of study for preparation
for marriage and family-life could
be introduced into school and to
church educational work; and
That a joint committee could be
set up to place an appraisal on all
mass media such a radio, television,
journalism and movies to express
approval of the better and objec
tions to the poorer type in ways
that will be effective in influenc
ing these media for the betterment
of family-life.
For the second consecutive time, I
the second grade taught by Mrs. i
Dale Belcher won the award in,
having the highest number of par-1
ents present at a P.-T.A. meeting.
The sum of $7.50 was given to the
grade and is to be spent by the,
teacher for what is needed most
in the classroom. The high school
study hall was filled to overflowing.,
A girls’ trio, mixed quartet and a j
boys' octet under the direction of
Miss Marjorie Iverson, instructor of |
vocal music in the Juneau High j
School, gave several selections.
Refreshments were served by the j
second grade mothers following the i
meeting.
Thanksgiving
Television
Movie Planned
HOLLYWOOD, Nov. 20— MV-More
than 50.000,000 people will see a
Thanksgiving television movie that
departs from the usual depiction
of the holiday.
There will be no pilgrims, tur
keys or Indians in “That I May
See." Instead the film will be about
the Crucifixion and Resurrection,
more commonly associated with the
Easter holiday.
The basic theme of the movie,
however, stresses man’s reasons for
“being thankful to God."
Every television station and net
work in the country has sched
uled at least one showing of the
film during the Thanksgiving sea
son.

YOUR LIFE
INSURANCE...
Most fathers whose children
are young have a special prob
lem. This is clearly seen if we
compare the situation of a
lather whose youngest child is,
say under 10 years of age with
another whose children are
grown.
As a rule, the father of a 5
jrear-old needs more life insur
ance until the child has com
pleted his education than
would be needed thereafter.
But he may feel that the ad
ditional amount of protection
is more than he can afford on
a regular Life or Endowment
plan of Insurance.
Moreover, he realizes that
the protection for his growing
family should be in the form
of a fixed monthly income for
living expenses, so that his
wife will know what she will
have to spend each month.
The New York fife’s Family
Income policy offers a very
practical solution to this prob
lem. Let me tell you about it.

If you drink whiskey... make this
"showdown "taste test today:
BE YOUR OWN WHISKEY EXPERT!
Have V\ oz. of Calvert put in one
glass, and the same amount of any
other whiskey in another—without
knowing which is which.
Taste each one for smoothness, flavor
and freedom from harshness. Then
pick the one that really tastes better.
We’re sure you’ll choose smoother,
mellower Calvert, because its taste
is determined by a “Consumer Jury”
of thousands like you. But if you still
prefer another brand, stick with it.
