But the Governor has in mind
the education to be found in the
schools and what the schools are
doing to supply It. He has reason
for pride in what has been accom-
plished in the past four years: more
than 500 school buildings newly built
or reconstructed; annual school sup
port increased from $6,400.000 to $10,-
100000 salaries of teachers increas-
ed on an average of more than fifty
per cent; students in the normal
schools increased from 500 to 110O
He has been an earnest and effective
champion of the schools and has re
ceived loyal support from the State
superintendent, DIR. Thomas, also, and
that is important, from the tax-pay-
ers
Education Week should be one of
the many occasions for carefully
considering what has been, is being
and should be done for our schools.
ITS rather difficult to get the logic
of the action of the Portland city
council in asking the officials in
Ward to resign. If the courts could
find no evidence of any wrong do

they should resign? Inefficiency can

Berwick was the ninth town in
corporated in the State of Maine.
The year 1913 was the date of it's be-
ing incorporated although settle
ments were made in the section as
early as 1924. The titles are derived
from Sir Ferdinando Gorges and
Rowles Sycamore of the Neewicha :
wannock Indian tribe. Among the
names Of pioneer settlers the best
known are. Frost, Shapleigh, Heard.
Plaisted, Spencer, Broughton, Leader
and Wincoln. The surface extent is
1901 acres inclusive of water. It
is a thriving and industrious com
munity and one of the towns in
which the State takes justifia BILE
pride. Berwick suffered greatly in
the Indian wars and their attacks on
the first settlers were particularly
atrocious under their cruel chief
Hopehood. One of the most noted
founders Of families in Berwick was
John Sullivan, an lrishman by birth
and education. He arrived in Maine
In 1923 and soon after opened a
school in Berwick. He lived to the
