Boy Scouts

..Friday, February 17, 1956 THE BOCA RATON NEWS Page 3,

Forty six years ago a great youth move-ment was founded and this week the countrypays tribute to the Boy Scouts of America.

Of the countless weeks set aside to callattention to everything from pickles to free-dom, we cannot think of one more deservingof sincere commendation than Boy ScoutWeek.

More than 3% million boys belong to this'fine organization which has gained a reputa-tion for being the best safeguard against ju-venile delinquency this country has.

A favorite story of ours was related by aBoy Scout leader, who said that during WorldWar II, no man with a Boy Scout backgroundwas ever jailed on one of the largest Armyposts in the country. This is significant be-cause parents can be assured that while theirchildren are pursuing the Scout program ofhandcrafts and outdoor living, they are also

building strong character.During this Boy Scout Week there should

be more than praises for the work of the or-ganization. It should also be a time foradults to ask themselves if they are able tohelp with Scouting.

Rev. Marvin Murphy, West Palm Beach min-ister, says that leadership for youth is need-ed; that money contributions alone are notenough. He emphasizes that adults shouldwork with youth organizations like the BoyScouts as well as their own children.

It would be a fine thing if this nationalobservance of Boy Scout Week would instill adesire in many men, whether they have sonsor not, to take part in the Boy Scout work.They will feel deeply rewarded for their ef-forts, especially when they can look backover die years and realize that they had ashare in shaping a boy's character and life.

Church Building FundBoca Raton Methodists will begin a cam-

paign next week to raise funds for erectingan educational building. The $32,000 whichthe church hopes to secure during the com-ing campaign will be used toward the pro-posed $50,000 educational building.

The Methodist congregation has • been apart of this community since 1925 and it isgood to see the group grow as it has donein recent years.

Churches are a 'bulwark of this nation'sfreedom. The right to choose the church inwhich one wants to worship is a privilege

enjoyed by people in few other countries.The work the churches do in making a God-loving people is recognized by most peoplewhether they are affiliated with churches ornot.

The effort of the local Methodists in build-ing additional church facilities is part ofthose of Christian churches everywherewhich build a strong foundation so that com-munism and other such ideologies do notgrow in this country where freedom of wor-ship is basic.

All Boca Raton will join incongratulating Dorothy Steinerupon winning the title of CitrusQueen at Winter Haven Wednes-day night.

Of course there was never anydoubt in our minds about whoshould bring home the title.Dorothy is not only a beautifulgirl, but she is charming,

Perhaps the first to "dis-cover" Dorothy was Photograph-er Hank Cohen.

Like other press photographers,he sees many lovely young girlswhile making pictures for thenumerous beauty contests whichpop up in every city and hamletthese days.

It was when Dorothy was a15-year-old Seacrest high schoolstudent that she entered theGladioli Festival's queen con-test. Hank predicted .even beforethe night of the exciting eventthat the "little girl from BocaRaton'' would be the win-ner. And she was. Ever since,Hank has not missed an oppor-tunity to photograph her.

Dorothy went on to -win otherbeauty contests and received thecoveted "Miss Dixie" titleseveral years ago. She recentlywas named co-queen of the Amer-ican Bicycle Association.

To mention so many titles thatDorothy has achieved might makeone think that she does nothingbut think of beauty contests.Quite the contrary. She has beengetting an education during thepast few years and is majoringin music at college.

Wherever Dorothy appears,she captivates those who meether by her wholesome ladylikemanner.

Boca Raton can well be proudof her. We know she will bringthis community much goodwill.

ing the drive and fervor thathave been hers in working for thelibrary, the Art Guild and otherorganizations.If the sale of the Club is con-

summated, and Hildegarde nolonger considers Boca Ratonwinter home, impetus given tocommunity endeavors by her en-thusiasm and efforts will longbe remembered.

Probably the biggest story ofthe week for South Florida isthe possibility that J, MyerSchine will sell his beautifulBoca Raton Club to ArthurVining Davis.

As one far on the outer ring ofactivities emanating from theClub, my reaction is only one ofsober reflection upon how closethe Schines have become asso-ciated with this community. Par-ticularly, ray thoughts turn toHildegarde Schine, a splendidwoman of dynamic energy whohas gladly lent her help in pro-moting some fine civic pro-jects.

"Lent her help" i s actually avery inadequate way of express-

Use of the telephone early inthe, filing period to obtain taxInformation was suggested todayby District Director Laurie W.Tomlinson of the,Internal Reve-nue Service to taxpayers whofind themselves with one or twoproblems in preparing their 1955Federal income tax returns. Thetelephone number to be called bytaxpayers of this area is TEmple2-8669, the West palm Beachfield office.

"Most taxpayers", Tomlinsonsaid, "should be able to com-plete preparation of their ownreturns with careful study ofthe tax forms and accompanyingbooklet instruction. In those in-stances, however, where inter-pretation of regulations is com-plicated by special conditions,the district office will gladlyprovide assistance", he said.

IVM i{ \ M

"Taxpayers who begin prepara-tion of their returns now will beable to obtain needed informa-tion more easily than if theywait until the closing days ofthe filing period. They wiXHalsofind it possible to prepare amore accurate return, and onewhich will permit them to com-pute all possible deductions,"Mr. Tomlinson said. He pointedout that the instruction bookletreceived by Florida taxpayerswith their 1955 forms is as sim-ple as writing on a complicatedsubject can be.

Meeting in the Boca EatonHotel, the NAM board of direc-tors unanimously agreed that thepublic interest requires appro-priate legislation to protect em-ployers and the general publicfrom these abuses.

The NAM said employees mustbe protected in their right to joinunions if they choose, but italso said employees should notbe required to join unions to get,or keep their jobs.

Furthermore, the NAM boardsaid, both employees and em-ployers should be protectedfrom coercion by violence, re-taliation, threats or boycotts.

It also mentioned work limita-tions, featherbedding, misuse ofunion funds for political pur-poses and dictation of • labor-management relations on an in-dustry wide basis through con-trol of the labor supply.
