and Mrs, Bill Achatz and Billy, of Silver- ton, and with her mother in SUITS Salem, club on "The Importance of the Newspaper in the Present World Situation." On leave from his duties as editor of the Harris-burg Telegram, which daily publishes six editions, Colonel Welker knew whereof he spoke, when in opening his talk he slated that "any newspaper worth its salt if reflective of -the community." Turning to the present world crisis, he noted that newspapers throughout the United States are aiding Ihe war effort in their devoting of untold space to the publication of material pertinent to the conduction of the extensive program necessary to the promotion of our offensive campaign. Further elaborating on the policies of papers in this country he staled that it was necessary in a democracy that newspapers take many different viewpoints to give a complete picture of situations. The press associations were given credit by the colonel for the coverage of the war, the only exceptions being those newspapers such as the New York Times, that in addition to having the services of the press associations, are represented by their own foreign correspondents. Correspondents of these large papers furnish most of the material for their papers and it is through their efforts that much valuable present day history is preserved for posterity. The New York Times has inaugurated a program whereby it inscribes copies of its paper to liberties for preservation of the present day news.

In telling of the fascination of a newspaper career Colonel Welker mentioned the human-interest and tragedy angles of the profession and the variety of experiences involved. Listed as Pennsylvania's greatest tragedies was the series of plane crashes experienced while the attempt was being made to fly mail over the Allegheny mountains. Deviating from the newspaper field Colonel Welker gave1 sidelights on army life and told of the background of his unit, one troop of which had its origin before the time the Revolutionary war. The cavalry he defined as a reconnaissance unit, going ahead of the other troops furnishing the other branches of the army with information of the lay of the land and activities of the enemy. They were termed as "Indian fighters" out on their own.

A special guest at the meeting was Lieut. Lillian Garrick of the WAACS, who spoke briefly on the activities of the WAACS and the requirements for entrance into that branch of the service. At the business session of the club, which followed Colonel Welker's talk, members passed a resolution admitting to temporary memberships under special provisions the wives of army officers making their homes in Salem and elected Into temporary membership Mrs. A. D.

Stevenson ad Mrs. D. Fletcher. Applications for regular membership were accepted and members made plans for a bridge party for club members and their friends the evening of April 6, with Mrs. Robert Wor- WE'VE KEYED OUR PRICES AND FASHIONS TO YOUR WARTIME LIVING.
