An institute of the state chapter of the American Association of Social Workers will be held in Chapel Hill March 28-29. There are to be three sessions.
Subjects for discussion will be of par- ticular interest to all League members. Miss Gertrude Richman, field represen- tative of the American Red Cross, will conduct the lecture and discussion for the first two meetings. "Selection and Objectives of the Training of Volun- teers" and "Content of the Training Course and the Use Which the Agencies Can Use of the Volunteers So Trained" will be the topics for these sessions.
Also, a panel discussion of the prob- lems typical of the use of volunteers in rural and urban areas, in public and private agencies will be brought out. Miss Annibel Maxwell, staff member of the Child Guidance Clinic, and Miss Mossman of Greensboro will represent the Greensboro-Winston-Salem local group of social workers on this panel.
At the last A.J.L.A. Board meeting Mrs. Lipscombe (our latest staff visitor) told the Board that in her opinion the Winston-Salem League had one of the outstanding placement systems in the national organization. The present place- ment chairman, Elizabeth Graham, and past placement chairmen who have worked so hard to establish our place- ment program, please take a bow.
We wel ome the Sacramento Cali- fornia Service League into the National Association of Junior Leagues.
The Thursday edition of a local news- paper has a new feature column-Mary Garber's latest brain baby. "Voluntari- ly Yours" covers volunteer work and work openings in the community. Leaguers assisting Mary in editing the column are Mary Belo Carlyle, Reby Randolph, Ann Pepper, and E. Sue Cox.
Delegates to the Annual Conference in Kansas City will be elected at the April meeting. Too, that all important Admissions Committee is to be elected. Your ballot is needed.
The Board of Directors will form the next discussion group at the Clinic. Weekly meetings will begin in April.
Emmy Brawley and Adelaide Trotter Reece have been granted non-resident memberships. Emmy is with her father in Rye, New York, until Bob is per- manently placed by the War Depart- ment. Adelaide is in Fayetteville. Dr. Reece is a lieutenant in the Armed Forces at nearby Fort Bragg.
Mrs. Sam Thorne was accepted as a guest member at the March meeting. She was a provisional member of the Raleigh League. *
Your quota of $15 at the Thrift Shop can be more easily obtained if you send in rummage in tip-top condition. Polished shoes, wrinkle-less clothes and other tricks of making old things look newer will help to fetch higher markings on your discards. April 1 begins a new rummage year for the Shop and the stock needs some spring additions.
The National Conference of Social Work will be held in New Orleans the week of May tenth. Nancy Martin has been asked to be the A.J.L.A. spokes- woman and present the case of the vol- unteer in social work.

"What Do We Get For Our Money ?"
Seven thousand dollars each year is a lot of money. The average Junior League member is a careful shopper when she spends out of her own pocket- book, and collectively we expend League funds even more slowly and even more critically. As befits any trustee, this is a very proper attitude. Let us ask, and ask again, "What do we get for our money-seven thousand dollars a year- at the Child Guidance Clinic ?"
Herein, we shall not in any sense, pooh-pooh the question, or those who so frequently ask it. We shall try as simply and briefly as possible to answer it, or at least, since answering it in figures seems so difficult, we shall try to supply a sort of measuring rod. .
After the reorganization of the Clinic when we sponsored its operation in con- nection with the Bowman Gray School of Medicine, the Clinic began bookkeep- ing all over again. We shall use only the records since March 1, 1941, at which time the League stepped up its contribution to $7000 annually.
Up to the present, the Child Guidance Clinic has treated 99 cases. This does not include 47 prospective cases that came for interviews which are known at the Clinic as "Inquiries."
When a parent comes to the Clinic with a problem about her child, she is not listed as a "new case." At this time, the service of the Clinic is explained to her. She learns just what she may reasonably expect from treatment by the therapist, or she may be advised that her problem is not one which the Clinic can help. If she does not return, it is not to be immediately supposed that she went away empty-handed. The inter- view itself may have helped her resolve her difficulties alone, or it may have pointed out other means available within her reach. If she wants to continue, she may ask for a second interview, which may help her to settle within her- self what cooperation she honestly de- sires to give. When she makes an ap- (Continued on page 5)

C. D. V. O. Notes
Under the auspices of the American Red Cross, a course in nutrition will be given here, starting after Easter. The nu'rition committee is composed of: Miss Helen Vogler, chairman, Mrs. Charles Babcock, and a member from every P. T. A. in the city.
The object of the course is to train civilians to run a canteen in case the city is ever called upon to feed large numbers of soldiers or refugees. The 20 hour course is a prerequisite to a can- teen course, which every person work- ing in the canteen is required to take.
The major points that will be em- phasized in the course are: Food Essen- tials For Health; Charts on Food Needs and Food Values; A Practical Plan for Meeting Daily Food Needs; Making the Food Dollars Count for Health."" ;:
The C. D. V. O., with Mrs. Melville Prongay as director performs two main functions: 1 - Enrolls volunteersw and places them in jobs or training in line with their capacities. 2 - Provides a central place in which all accredited training courses for volunteers may be listed and arranges for such additional courses as may be necessary.
The most important project of the C. D. V. O. in February was the choosing of Air Raid Wardens from each sector of the city, and starting training courses fo" them. In March. under the leader- ship of Mr. Banks Newman, a Messen- ger Service will be organized through which the youth of the city may find its place in Civilian Defense. Young peo- ple between the ages of 15 and 21 will be trained and assigned to casualty sta- tions and to Air Raid Wardens. Their work will be vital in case of an emer- gency for if all means of communica- tion are down their job will be-to get the message through.
Part of the money given to the C. D. V. O. by the Beauty Parlor committee after the Fashion Show, has been used to set up a colored division with a colored supervisor as an experiment for a month. 1

pointment to come with her child, then the Clinic lists a "new case."
So in a year's span, the Clinic has listed 99 cases and 47 inquiries. At first glance, these figures appear disappoint- ing in proportion to the money spent. Certainly they have an intangible sig- nificance. First, however, let us con- sider that in every case not one person alone is involved. Where one finds a child troubled by an emotional conflict, there is always at least one harassed adult; there is the probability that another adult, frequently the father, is
equally disturbed; there is the impact on other children in the family; there is the possibility that in a school ciass- room, a teacher and 35 other children are working less efficiently because of one child, who, wrestling ineffectually with the problems of his everyday liv- ing, becomes a boisterous, unruly, or morose element in the group.
How far our contribution of $7000 stretches we shall never know. But that it provides a helpful means toward achieving a normal, healthful life for more than "99 cases" can never be doubted. M. B. C.
Mrs. Charles Neal (Mary Martha Li- brook) belonged to the Winston-Salem, North Carolina, League before coming to Los Angeles. She worked on the Oc- cupational Therapy program of the Win- ston-Salem Junior League Home, and with the Theatre Group (costumes and scenery). The latter interest has car- ried over in her Los Angeles work, for she has joined the Theatre Group here. -Los Angeles Newssheet.

Professional Status Quo
What, if anything, does a professional derive from her League membership? What, if anything, can be done to bring the professional and the League into closer relationship ?
The Winston-Salem League has a membership of less than twenty profes- sionals-but of this number at least half are potentially indispensable as volun- teers since they hold positions requiring only part of their available time each day. The majority of these girls are able to attend the League meetings and to keep abreast of and participate in the activities of the organization.
For the full-time professional her as- sociation with the League offers very little except from a social standpoint. She is able generally to attend luncheons and the annual banquet (when and if held), but aside from this she must rely on news publications and conversation for any information she receives of the League's work. In her present status she can be of very little service to the League, but it does not necessarily fol- low that she lacks interest or the desire to cooperate if the opportunity should present itself.
A professional member must be kept in close contact with the work of the organization. She can get out of it only as much as she puts into it-and by the same token, she can put into it only as much as is made possible for her.
Obviously, the League must make the point of contact possible. The Place- ment committee must know what each girl is interested in doing, and what hours she has free for volunteer ser- vice. The interest of the professional should not be merely recorded on her placement card, but should be appreci- ated to the extent that any expression of her willingness or desire to help is taken advantage of.
There is a mutual feeling among the professionals that they not only desire but need to know more about the wel- fare work and the volunteer program of the League. How they might get this could be brought about in a number of

Shopping Around
In spite of war. pestilence and infla- tion, women need to buy in the spring- time. This year the buying urge must be satisfied with thrift and discrimina- tion, but somewhere in your war budget there should be a "morale-building fund" to allow for sprucing up yourself, your offspring, or your house.
If you want to economize on your head yet get the lift that only new spring headgear gives, gather up your discarded hats, go to the Ideal milli- nery department, and yell for Mrs. Wheeler. From then on, all you have to do is sit in front of the mirror while she literally creates-on your head-a vision that is directly related to the shape of your face, as well as to your personality. Of course she has equal success with a new hood.
Moving from head to toe, we'd like to recommend the Joyce gillie at Sosnik's. It combines the new laced-up ballet effect with the well-known comfort af- forded by the Joyce platform construc- tion; in natural and red . .. The I. Miller shoe-handbag combinations in parsley green or the new petunia (a darkish purple-red) seem to harmonize with al- most anything. Shoes come in three de- grees of dressiness, beginning with a swell tailored stitched pump.
A little junk jewelry now and then can do your morale a world of good. Our heart goes out to the big-link plastic chains at Montaldo's. In the moderately deluxe class is the set of three totem-pole faces for grouping on your lapel; or the plaited suade neck- lace dangling ceramic masks and real jingle bells. The over-size hair pins trimmed with pearls would be very ultra stuck in your turban by day, behind your pompadour by night.

If it's your house you want to dress up, look at the Anchor Store's new striped design in Bates bed spread (also perfect for slip covers.) It has a rope effect bordering the stripes and comes in elegant mellow colors-soft beige with soft green or dark red, dull blue or dusty rose monotones, or a smart yellow combined with dark red. Another style gives a chintzy effect with wild flowers in diamonds on a white ground.
William Pfohl's Salemware, faithfully copied from old Wachovia pieces, is now on sale at Arden Farm Store. The "kitchen colors" are just about perfect -a rich reddish brown, soft tan, and the best green we've ever seen in pot- tery-a dark jade. Among the pieces of this ware which can be put right in the oven are bean pots, all the way from individual to family size; onion soups (designed from old bowls); pie plates; turquoise custard cups; and a deep bak- ing dish to replace the Pyrex job.
For spring flower arrangements, con- sider the Pfohl pottery tandards, tavern cups, shaving mugs, fat squatty syrup jugs, and replicas of love-feast mugs in a beautiful soft cream.

Georgie Comes To The Clinic
Georgie was three and a half years old when he came to the Child Guidance Clinic. He was brought by relatives who felt unable to cope with the speech de- fect, the frequent spells of crying and screaming, the habit of banging his head against the foot of his bed which Georgie had developed.
Georgie had pretty black hair, twinkly eyes, but he was pale, and his frail little legs looked too slight to carry him. He was lonely and had the starved look characteristic of children who have had little affection.
Georgie's mother was mentally ill, and his father was young and irresponsible and cared little for his child. Most of his life, Georgie had lived in hospitals or hospital-like places.
His relatives felt more responsibility and a sense of obligation to solve the problems caused by his head-banging and speech defect than a feeling of love and sympathy for the child.
Georgie's treatment at the Clinic was studied as an individual problem, as are all cases brought to Dr. Rose and Miss Maxwell. For fifty minutes two morn- ings a week, Georgie "played" with Dr. Rose in a room filled with toys in which a three year old would be interested. He was not able to adjust himself at once to the new experience of having someone in whom he could feel confi- dence, and he became ill for a time. But when he returned to the Clinic, he brought back the same interest and eagerness he had showed at the first evidence of affectionate sympathy from his new friend, and gradually, as he be- came less afraid of the developing rela- tionship with Dr. Rose, his speech began to improve and his continued crying ceased.
The pounding of his head on his bed, which at one time had been so vigorous that the paint was actually removed, decreased.
By the time Georgie left the Clinic, five months after he began treatment, he was a different child. He seemed to realize that something of which he had

Books For Victory
It is a matter of record that some Boston lady contributed a 1924 copy of the Social Register as her part of the Victory Book campaign, a national drive to collect ten million books for the boys in the armed forces.
Even her misguided gesture is better than no gesture at all. Winston-Salem has not done her part in helping pro- vide army camps and ships with am- munition against boredom, homesick- ness, and questions about "the use of it all."
Surely we have enough good books in our private libraries to give at least one, and maybe one hundred, to a good cause. Fiction and non-fiction, if they are good, are needed. And paper novels, the kind you pick up in the station and drug stores while you are waiting, are most acceptable for hospitals. The li- brary is the collection point. If you have too many to carry yourself, someone will call for any books you can give.

Georgie Goes To The Clinic
(Continued from page 10)
been previously afraid was gone, and he expressed himself as he said good-by in the best way he knew, by singing the "Happy Birthday Song" twice through.
The story of Georgie would be only half complete if his treatment alone was described. Every day that Georgie came, a relative who brought him met with Miss Maxwell. With her, Georgie's prob- lems were discussed. She felt free to talk over the difficulties which arose with his care, and she helped work out the solutions which eventually brought Georgie a more normal life.
A very important part of the child's adjustment lies in the parent or guardi- an's realization of his part in the Clinic's treatment. While the child has a pri- vate conference with Dr. Rose, in which he is encouraged to do anything he wants to do, to talk if he likes, to make things, or just to sit, the adult has a conference with Miss Maxwell. Both the
adult and the child must progress if treatment is to proceed successfully. Many children come only once a week; others, like Georgie, need more frequent conferences.
The Clinic works because, first of all, the parent or guardian who brings his child has made one of the most impor- tant steps in the whole process of re- adjustment: he has realized the need for trained, skilful help. If he is able, he pays for this service; fees are based on income.
The parent understands what is ex- pected of him when he makes his appli- cation to the Clinic for service. It is up to him to decide whether he can use the help that is offered.
Cases are also referred by other agencies in the city, who recognize the Clinic's contribution to the establish- ment of normal home life.
The importance of the Clinic at this particular time in our national emer- gency is steadily increasing. Even chil- dren in our own families develop prob-

lems if the family relationship is troubled, and when the armed forces and war-time industries are causing breaks in family ties, the need for an agency able to make adjustments is obvious. An increase in volume of cases here in our own Clinic is expected, as well as aris- ing difficulties in the problems presented.

suggested ways ranging from a luncheon or night meeting to an annual meeting with the officers at which time they could become acquainted with the gen- cral program of work being carried on. June Day is not an answer to this for the professionals as not all of them can attend. The objection, however, has been raised to adding another meeting to the too many meetings now being held. A practicable and agreeable solution to part of the situation comes in a sug- gestion for some published form of vol- unteer service being done through the medium of a news letter or the news- sheet.

After the April meeting it will be time to nominate the provisionals again.

"I Will Do My Part"
"We cannot suspend our way of life while we are learning to defend it."
Let us not forget, at the first glow of patriotism, and, also, at the first twinge of fear, our community service is truly first in the matter of Home Defense. Most of us are taking courses, in First Aid, Nutrition, in Motor Corps, in Civil- ian Protection. Many of us have reg- istered at the Office of Civilian Defense. Others are serving on boards and com- mittees.
Of course, there are always the few, who are "too busy", or feel there is "nothing they can do." This is a danger- ous psychology, when multiplied by thousands, it can sow the seeds of de- feat. There is something for every one to do.
We can help in other ways too. Let's double up on car driving. Take a car- load when you are going any distance and take turns using cars. Walk when you can. Begin to plan a vegetable garden for next spring, even if you have only a small plot of ground. Save all your old papers, rags and metal. Don't waste food, don't complain and don't spread rumors. And above all, don't stock up supplies, even if you can afford it. It's unpatriotic.

Uniform Hospitality
It was originally planned to publish in the Magazine the names and addresses of the League chairmen of hospitality for members of the armed forces for whom League members might ask the extension of this courtesy. However, it has been decided that so many un- pleasant contingencies might arise from the publishing of addresses in the Maga- zine (which has never been done here- tofore) that the list of these hospitality chairmen will instead be sent to the Magazine Chairmen of each League. Any League member can secure from her Magazine Chairman the name and address of the person to whom she should write on behalf of her friends or relatives in camp near almost any League city.
