F or E ff ic ie nt Work in PhysicalTra in ing at V. M. C, A.The Junior Boys of the V. M, C. A,wcre entertain cd last Friday eveningby their physical dircctor, Mr, E. Fitzmcyer. There was 100 per cent. turnout as all the boys knew o f the goodtime that was in store for them. Theywcre first taken to the Ardmoremovics, wherc they saw "SubwaySadie," aild by a ll appearances seemedto cnjoy it vcry much, having manylaughs and gigglcs during the entireshow,After the show they returned 'to the"V," where they wcrc treated to refreshmcnts, vYhilc seatcd at the tablemedals were awarded to the boys receiving thc most points in a swimmingand gymnasium contest. These medalswere to bc contestcd for morally,phYliically and mcntally and each oncof the conditions reflected points infavor of the boys, The cont est extended ovcr a pcriod of several monthsand the grand finale came at this time.The winner of the first pr ize, a goldmedal, was \Varren P, Fairbanks, ofArdmore. From the observation ofthe physical director and also from theopinion of the boys \Varren was byall mcans the boy to receive this prize.He is known as the "Good Sport" andis also excellcnt in his work in physicaltraining; all members feel quite proudof him and hope that he will k ee p upthe good work. Second prize, a silvermcdal. was awarded to Harry Seaboldt, of Narberth, who deserves agreat deal of crcdit due to the factthat he is a little heavier than some ofthe o ther boys and therefore mustwork that much hardcr for his honor.Thi rd prize , a b ronze medal , wasawardcd to Charles Mason , o f Narbcrth, who also has been a ha rd andfaithful workcr in the contest. Inspitc of the weather and various conditions onc would always be sure thatCharles would be on the job. Therewere several boys that deserved honorable mcntion. but did not receiveawards since they were new and consequently cntered the contcst near theclose, Amongs t those arc R ichardHansen. of Brookline. and RobertHunnewell. of South Ardmore.The boys privileged to come to theparty were: Warrcn Fairbanks, RobertHunnewell, Theodore Dodgc, HarrySeaboldt, J immy England, AndrewBurns, Robert Mason, Charles Mason,Augus t "Vagner, Leonard Kurtz,Richard Hansen and Billy Davidson.

said, " is o ne o f t he g re at es t e ne mies of juvenile delinquency. Thisevi l i s diminishing year by year.\Var excit ement , l ack o f home supervision and contacts during theU war, and the 'let down' afterwardsg are among the causes of the seri

Several Narberth people, sending for the coats, have discovered them to bevirtually worthless, bearing no resemblance to the sample of cloth submitted."What can I do to get my money back?" asks the victim. "Must I throw thesethings away?"

All of us here in Narberth are on Sucker Lists. For the past few weeks."Blind" men have been s e n d i n ~ five ..cent neckties through the mails at a dollar orso for three or four. Another firm in the West, whose name is designed to re..semble that of a reputable rubber company, has been soliciting orders for raincoats.

Surely. If the purchases had beenmade of a Narberth busines man, a mis ..represented article would have been made good, but mail purchases are always agamble, and an expensive one. Don't be a "sucker."

But themail is also to be blamed for one of America's evils...... the SuckerList. The Sucker List is the term applied to any list of names circularized throughthe mail for the purpose of prying the prospective victim loose from a bit of hard..earned money.
