THAT NEW HIGH SCHOOL

TIME new school board should. and
probably will, take early action
looking toward the erection of
a new high school or high schools for
Harrisburg. The situation at the
Central High school is approaching
the intolerable. The boys and girls
who attend one session a day there
are being cheated of a part of their
education, for no corps of teachers,
be they ever so painstaking and con-
scientious. can do two days work in
one and accomplish the best results.
DR.. Dibble is doing a good work
and his teaching corps is devoting
itself to the heavy task confronting
1t with devotion and self-sacrifce. but
they are working under a handicap
that should not be required of them.
There is only one solution-the erec-
ton of a new building or new build
ings.
The situation now presented to the
board differs materially from that of
several years back. so that the ex-

It's all right to say"Love me, love

MORE LIKE CHRISTMAS
BY WING DINGER

Hasn't seemed a bit like Christmas
'Ceptin' every now and then
When some coin for gifts is needed
Sometimes Ave and sometimes ten.
But to-day with ground all covered
With a goodiy lot of snow.
There's breath of Christmas spirit
Everywhere that one may go.
Tell you what. stores may be laden
With a lot of merchandise
Which, as gifts on Christmas morning
VIII to many bring surprise.
But there's nothing that makes faces
With the Christmas spirit glow
Like the sight of flakes a faIlin'
And the earth bedecked with snow.

I am a firm believer in the prin-
ciple of preparedness, not for ag-
gression. but for defense against
any foreign foe. from whatever
quarter he may come. In the pres
ent worldwide turmoil caused by
the European war our attention is
so pointedly directed toward pre-
paredness against possible enemy
beyond our borders that we may
forget quite vulnerable points at
home. Let me emphasize that In my
judgment foreign foe is not the
greatest danger that may threaten
our national life, for against him
we would be united as one man at
whatever cost of blood and treas
ure.
Far more insidious and dangerous
Is the domestic foe. who may, un-
recognized for years, by artful
means, in SIRENS song, appeal to
our prejudices, our love for riches,
our political ambition and our van
ity in his efforts to upbuild himself

ment.
