MEETING WITH LEONID PLUSHCH Our editor Ms. Ulana Lubowych and Public Relations Chairwomen Mrs. Camille Smorodsky visited Leonid Plushch and his wife prior to attending the International Women's Tribunal "Crime Against Women" in Belgium. Ms. Lubowych speaks of the meeting: Leonid Plushch and his wife are people of high ideals. They hold great regard for the law and for the freedom of thought. Tayana Plushch even insisted that her husband's opinions are not necessarily her own. They respect individuality in each person. They were deeply concerned about the plight of others who suffer persecution because of love of a nation and its people. HOW TO ORGANIZE A NURSERY SCHOOL Irena Lonchyna — Education Chairman of U. N. W. L. A. has written a short article giving instructions on how to organize nursery schools for youngsters. The following are suggestions offered: 1. initiators of nursery schools should be Branches of UNWLA in their respective communities. 2. a list of children, ages 3-5 should be compiled (such a list of names may be received from the parish). 3. parents of these children should be contacted by post or telephone, though personal contact is best, and a meeting arranged to explain the necessity of such a school and the benefits derrived from it. 4. initiators must be familiar with education ordinances of their state, city and community. 5. arrangements for insurance coverage should be made. 6. Up to date file should be kept on each pupil with information pertaining to his or her health and safety. 7. a parents committee should be organized. 8. suitable premises should be found. 9. a good teacher should be engaged. BETWEEN US AND THE TELEPHONE... Ms. Lubow Kalynowych has picked a rather interesting topic for discussion this month — mainly that of v isits. Actually a problem seems to exist between young people with children of their own and their parents when it comes to visiting each other. Parents demand that their married children come to see them often and stay long. Young people today are barraged by a variety of interests not to mention the time consuming ferrying of their children to the various lessons, meetings, etc. Ms. Kalynowych suggests that our elderly citizens also find interests to fulfill their lives and keep visits short and pleasant for everyone.
