rons—does that suggest to you
packs of government boats pa
trolling our waters, ‘closing in on
lawbreakers afloat? Well, you
couldn’t be more wrong.
- USPS is a nonprofit organiza
tion wlmse chief objective is to
see that everyone who handles a
motorboat does so with a high
standard of skilL There are about
26,000 members, each one of
’whom has passed an examination
on piloting and operating a mtor-
boat.
Cembers cooperate in the fi
nancing and presenting of the
USPS’ greatest and most success
ful project: basic classes in pilot
ing and'small-boat handling. Last
year oVer 33,000 students were en
rolled in thestf classes. They are
given in about 200 cities, start
ing in the fall and again after
New Year’s, and they are open to
anyone. They are entirely free.
The organization was bom in
Boston in 1912 when a group of
boat owners in the Boston Yqcht
Club realized that operators of
what then was an entirely new
sort of boat, needed some tnstruc
tions. The idea spread, and the na
tional organization was formed in
New York City two years later.
Throughout the years the USPS
has been largely an inboard or
ganization. But now outbearders
are joining in fast-growing num
bers and the instruction courses
are being tailored to include more
on cutboards. especially in in
land cities.
Willard Crandall, our boats
and motors editor, told me the
lecture series is. not at all dry
or bookish, but a sort of winter
boating fun. The basic course cov
ers eight lectures on such subjects
as equipment, government regula
tions, rules of the road, seaman
ship, safety, navigation, piloting,
manners and customs. There are
four advanced classes in seaman
ship and navigating, and elective
dourses such as engine mainten
ance, sails, and weather. „
Boys are not eligible for mem
bership but may attend the classes
and on passing the examination,
if over 16, become eligible for the
advanced courses. On reaching 18
boys may become members. Same
applies to girls.
If you’re interested, a postcard
to National Headquarters, U. S.
Power Squadrons, P. O. Box 510,
Englewood, N. J., will bring you
all the information, including
when and where classes nearest
you start.

From Dretta McElyea, Berry-
ville, Arkansas: I remember when
we sheared the wool from our
sheep, washed it down at the
spring and carried it back to the
house, wet, in baskets; then spread
it on scaffolds to dry.
Sometimes mother invited our
good neighbor women in and there
was a wool picking to get the dirt
and trash out. Mother, would pre
pare dinner for all when the job
was done. The wool was then tied
in clean bed sheets. Daddy would
take our wool and the neighbors
wool and load them on what we
called the “hack.’’ Sometimes
there was more than he could tie
on the “hack” so he took the farm
wagon and drove to Roaring River
Spring (now a State Park) where
the wool was carded and made in
to long rolls.
Mother and we girls would spin
the rolls into thread, weaving some
into what we called “linsy” to
make our dresses. We colored this
thread with diamond dyes. -Some
was woven with three treads, which
made the cloth heavier and gave
it a “right” and a “wrong” side.
This was used to make pants for
the men folks and was colored by
boiling green walnut hulls, which
made it a pretty brown.
In those days we made knitted
out stockings, socks, and mittens.
We also made all our blankets, of
which I still have some I made
myself.
There was much work for the
housewife in those days.

Columbia.
