Description
An account of the resource
Public service comic published as a part of the National Social Welfare Assembly Comics Project. The Comics Project lasted from August 1949 - July 1967 and produced over 200 pages promoting citizenship and social values. <br /><br />Publisher's Note: "Published as a public service in cooperation with The National Social Welfare Assembly, coordinating organization for national health, welfare and recreation agencies of the U.S."<br /><br />A father talks to his son Jerry about his failure to do a good job cleaning up the garage. Jerry says, "Aw, Dad, What's the difference? It's not very important." His father replies, "Hmm...With that kind of attitude, you'll get into sloppy work havits. If everyone felt that way about his job, what do you think would happen?" <br /><br />The father goes on to give examples of people we count on to do their jobs: a plumber, switchboard operator, garage mechanic, and finally "a man who works on a space capsule." Jerry concludes, "I get it Dad...Every job, whether it's big or small, is important enough to do right!"

Description
An account of the resource
Binky says: "Never Underestimate A New Idea!"<br /><br />Comic description: Allergy enters a soap-box derby and tells Binky that he was going to try something new and different with his car but decided against it because he was afraid that the other boys would laugh at him. Binky tells Allergy that the Wright brothers were also laughed at for having new ideas and today, they are world renoened inventors. Binky's story gives Allergy the courage to try out his new ideas on his soap-box car.<br /><br />[Image description: The comic book cover shows three students sitting at desks and working on their hobbies. One is making miniature ships, the other is sculpting animals, and another is admiring a stamp collection. All three look up and stare at Superboy who is flying above a desk with a sign on it that says 'reserved for superboy'. Over his shoulder he has a giant bag that appears to be holding something large and heavy. As Superboy lowers it onto the desk, one of the students says, "Here comes Superboy now! Gosh, I wonder what his hobby can be?"]<br /><br /><br />Public service comic published as a part of the National Social Welfare Assembly Comics Project. The Comics Project lasted from August 1949 - July 1967 and produced over 200 pages promoting citizenship and social values. <br /><br />Publisher's Note: "Published as a public service in cooperation with The National Social Welfare Assembly, coordinating organization for national health, welfare and recreation agencies of the U.S."

I'll test it on Clark Kent later-- and if it weakens him, too, I'll have proof of Superboy's secret identity!". In the background there is a line of people forming and a sign that says : "Today Dedication Ceremony, Superboy Guest Speaker".]</span><br /><br /><br />Public service comic published as a part of the National Social Welfare Assembly Comics Project.

Joe meets with his school counselor, at his parent's suggestion, and his counselor enrolls him in a new course. Joe tells Buzzy that he likes his new course so much that he has decided to stay in school. His grades in all his other subjects have also improved. Buzzy reminds the reader to carefully consider important life decisions. <br /><br />[Image description: A text panel on the comic book cover reads: "How would you like a Superboy souvenir in your home? A memento of some great adventure or deed performed by the BOY OF STEEL? You'd like it, of course, but no more so than eager customers in Smallville, flocking to purchase mementos of their famed boy citizen! Everybody is happy-- except Superboy himself-- when he learns there is a mystery behind the Superboy Souvenirs!". The image on the cover shows superboy using his super-strength to place a giant meteor onto a petastal. The petastal has a sign that says: "Super Souvenir Meteor which Superboy Caught Before it Smashed into a City!". Next to Superboy is a man in a suit saying: "Thanks for pouring the concrete base and bringing the meteor here, Superboy! Now just one more little detail... building a wooden shelter over it!". A thought bubble by Superboy says: "Hmm! As a souvenir, this meteor is more trouble than it was as a menace! All I had to do then was to CATCH it!".]<br /><br />Public service comic published as a part of the National Social Welfare Assembly Comics Project. The Comics Project lasted from August 1949 - July 1967 and produced over 200 pages promoting citizenship and social values. <br /><br />Publisher's Note: "Published as a public service in cooperation with the National Social Welfare Assembly, coordinating organization for national health, welfare and recreation agencies of the U.S."

What Are YOU Getting out of School?
Description
An account of the resource
Buzzy asks: "What Are YOU Getting out of School?<br /><br />Comic description: Jan reflects on how when he first started school in America, he studied very hard but felt lonely. Soon he was able to make friends and participate in extracurricular activities. Jan tells his friends "That's what school means to me-- not only learning and the studying but all those other things you get a chance to do." Buzzy says that Jan has reminded him not to take all of the advantages of a free education for granted.<br /><br />[Image description: Superboy is on a stage surrounded by an audience and lifts a huge 1 ton weight over his head. A sign next to him says "Clark Kent performing Superboy feats". He looks surprised and a thought bubble says: "Gosh! This isn't the fake prop prepared for Clark's act, but the REAL THING! Lana Lang's tricked me!". Lana Lang sticks her head out from behind the curtain on stage and her thought bubble says: "I've proved Clark is Superboy once and for all!".]<br /><br />Public service comic published as a part of the National Social Welfare Assembly Comics Project.

<span>Comic description: This comic tells the story of how the United Nations helped Indonesia gain their independence. Indonesia has a long history of being colonized by other countries. First the Portugal, then the Netherlands, and then Japan. The UN helped Indonesia to gain their independence on December 27, 1949. Dr. Soekarno became the first president of Indonesia and was admitted as the UN's 60th member nation. <br /><br />[Image description: The cover of the comic book shows a woman holding up a small green rock of kryptonite underneath Superboy who is flying above her. A ray from the kryptonite hits Superboy causing him to waiver and giving him a dazed expression on his face. A thought bubble above the woman reads "It's real kryptonite, all right! I'll test it on Clark Kent later-- and if it weakens him, too, I'll have proof of Superboy's secret identity!". In the background there is a line of people forming and a sign that says : "Today Dedication Ceremony, Superboy Guest Speaker".]<br /><br />Public service comic published as a part of the National Social Welfare Assembly Comics Project.
