HAVEN'T GOT TIME

aid and ask our readers, partic-
ularly our young readers, to
think much of the lesson it tells
in so rough a way eff you
want anything done get a busy
man to do it," was the advice
of one of Americas greatest
sons. 1t is not the busy man
who hasn't time"-it is the
idler who realizes little of the
value of time and, therefore,
wastes the most prescious thing
in all the world. We do not
like to suggest doleful or grue-
some thoughts, but it is we'll for
us all sometimes to think of the
dead opportunities and recall
that the minute gone is gone
forever; that the hour wasted
can never be recalled; that the
years fritered away may be re-
GREETED, but cannot be lived
over again. Those who get in
the habit of thinking and so in
the habit of saying 81 haven't
got time" will, whenever they
think of the past or contem-
plate the future, have very
bad quarter of an hour. Fol
lowing is the poem:
Opportunity tapped at a door,
With chance for the brother
within;
He raped till his fingers were
sore
And muttered: Come on, let
me in.
Here is something l know you
can do,
Here's hill that l know you
can climb"
But the brother inside
Very quickly replied:
"Old fellow, | haven't got time
Opportunity wandered along
In search of man who would
rise,
He said to the indolent throng
Here's a chance for the fellow
who tries"
But each of them said with a
smile,
81 wish I could do it, but I'm
very busy today,
Very busy today;
And I'm sorry to say
That really | haven't got time. -
At last opportunity came
To a man who was burdened
with cares,
And said: 81 now offer the same
Opportunity that has been
theirs;
Here's a duty that ought to be
done,
It's a chance if you've got the
time to take it."
Said the man, with grin,
Come along, pass it in!
"I'll either find time or I'll
make it,"
OF all the excuses there are
By which this old world is ac-
cursed,
This haven't got time" is by
far
The poorest, the feeblest, the
worst.
A delusion it is, and a snare;
If the habit is yours, you should
shake it,
For if you want to do
What is offered to you,
You'll find time to do it, or
make it.
Don't know nuthin
Don't love nuthin
Don't dream nuthin

What are the Duties of The
Superintendent of County Schools !?

Not only does Texas desire to have
regular county superintendent in
place of county judges, but she aims
to make sure that the superintendent
will not be political nominees. The
proposed plan puts the selection of
the county superintendent in the
hands of the county board of educa-
ton to the end that this officer, like
his city colleague, may be chosen for
educational fitness rather than for
political expediency. The whole idea
is to make the county superintendent,
as he is in many states and as he
ought to be wherever the office exists,
a professionally trained school expert.
There are probably few cases where
the important work of school super
vision is assigned to county judge
or a sheriff, but there are still very
many localities where the Texas ideal
of professionally trained county SUI
perintendent, free from political ties,
is not yet realized. Educators every
where believe that adequate supervis-
ion by expert county superintendent
is so essential in the upbuilding of the
rural schools that the office of county
superintendent schould be wholly pro-
fessional and not political
The Richmond palladium and sun-telegram. [volume] (Richmond, Ind.) 1907-1939, 1913-03-31

Should the county superintendent OF
schools be judge, sheriff, polit'
ical officeholder, or just an educator
who knows his business and gives his
whole attention to the schools? He
is or has been all of these in differ
ent parts of the United States. In
Texas it is the county judge who
serves in many of the counties as ex-
officio superintendent Of schools, and
in at least one state the sheriff used
to hold the office. But Texas expects
soon to have real county superintend-
ents in all the counties that are still
without them, according to informa-
ton received at the United States
Bureau of Education.
The new Texas plan is based on the
urgent needs of the states rural
schools. Texas has three quarters of
million rural-school children. Effic-
lent county supervision is a prime
requisite for efficient rural schools.
She is endeavoring to relieve her
county judges, who make no claim to
expert knowledge of ruralschool SUI
pervision, of their duties as county
superintendent of schools, and to
select real superintendent whose first
claim to the position is professional
training and ability.

GIBSON MAY NEVER Be.
TRIED AGAIN AS SLAYER

NHwBURG, N. z. May 30.-one
juror saved Robert w. Gibson, al
legged slayer of Mrs. Rosa Menschik
Szabo, known as the Countess Szabo,
from being found guilty of murder In
the first degree here 1t is probable
he may not be again tried
Late yesterday the jury, which
had been deadlocked for almost
twenty-five hours, reported to SUI
preme Court Justice Arthur S. Tomp-
ldns that they could not agree, and 1t
was then developed that they had
stood eleven to one for conviction
since after the first ballot at 5:25
o'clock Wednesday afternoon.
The single juror who steadily held
out for Gibson's acquittal was Charles
Reynolds. a farmer.
Realizing that they were hopelessly
divided the justice discharged the
jury and remanded Gibson to the Co
shen Jail Gibson WAS almost a
wreck after the long vigil which was
the most trying part Of his latest
ordeal.
District Attorney Wilson said he
was not certain Whether GlDeon
would be put on trial again for the
murder of Mrs. Szabo. It is believed
that the prisoner will now be turned
over to the New York County author
tiles.
Assistant District Attorney Murphy,
OF New York, is here with warrants
charging Gibson with forgery and
larceny in connection with the hand
ling of Mrss Szabo's estate.
As the hours passed prior to the
jury's report Gibson. who had been
lying on a cot in his cell reading near
ly all day, became more and more
cheerful. Mrs. Gibson remained with
her husband nearly all the day. she
showed the effects of the severe
strain under which she had been dur
ing the past week.
