NOW THAT IT'S OVER

CHRISTMAS is over and Santa Claus
~ has returned to his home among
the snow clouds. He is tired and will
take years vacation. His local help
ers are tired, too, but most of them
will stick on the job without cease.
The day was one of great good cheer
in Winslow, thanks to everyone VINO
Iabored in behalf of the many ac-
tivities that will make the Christmas
of 1924 one to be remembered long
by all who had the privilege of par
ticipating.
All the churches, many of the lodges
and clubs. schools, citizens in their
private capacities, a n d business
houses contributed generously OF
time and money and stocks of goods
to spread the Christmas joy over
every inhabitant.
The festivities at the churches were
we'll prepared and well attended.
School entertainments provided diver
tisement for several pre-Christmas
evenings. Long rehearsals, and many
sacrificed hours were gladly given to
these preparations, and the glory OF
a task we'll done and appreciated is
nav enough for those engaged. The
free matinee given for the children
bv the B. P. o. Elks Christmas after
noon was a generous gift, and the
more substantial gift of well-tilled
Christmas dinner basket to each OF
half a hundred needy families was
true exemplification of the Christmas
spirit. The preparation and manage
ment of the municipal tree enta1led
much more work than can be realized
except by those who made it possible
and carried it through so successfully.
And all the manifestations of the sea-
son called for effort on the part of
many people, to each of whom The
Winslow Mail takes the privilege OF
thanking, on behalf of ALL for their
splendid efforts, and to add note
of congratulation for services so ably
rendered.

Der to date. Temperatures for the

NOTES FROM THE
MOTHERS CLUB
A PARENTS CREED

l believe in the American child and
his ability to work out a safe de-
mOcracy for the future. I believe the
home, the school and the church share
the responsibility of developing his
ability. l believe that my first duty
is to my own children in my own
home. l believe that my next duty
is to other children in my communi-
ty. believe that my duty reaches
to the children of my state, my nation,
and my world. I believe that only
through the working together of all
patriotic people can better child con-
ditions be brought about. l believe
the Parent-Teacher association makes
possible cooperation of all patrio-
tic people. 1 believe that such CO.
operation is coming. I believe I can
help it to come.-Washingt School
Mothers Club
CHILD TRAINING IN THE HOME
Everywhere, students of social con-
ditions and workers with children are
emphasizing the vital need of home
training in religious and moral issues
with particular stress being laid
upon the Importance of religious in
struction, that the child may have
something fixed and definite to guide
him in his various contests with life.
There can be no leadership that is
abiding without character, as char
acter is rooted deep in essential re-
ligion-the right attitude of a boy to
his God and to his fellow men,

GERRYMANDER

"Gerrymander" is a political
term which was created in 1912
when Elbridge Gerry was gov

believed at that time that Gerry
was in favor of the redistricting
of portion of the state to OBJ
tain a Democratic majority. The
new district resembled a sala-
mander in shape. The COM
bination of Gerry's name and
mander furnished the word,
which means the redistricting
Of territory to win an advantage
for one political party. The pro
nunciation is "ger-ry-man-der."
