The County Comptroler's report as pub
lished in two of our County papers is a full
detailed account of the receipts and expendi-
lures of the peoples money, and should be in
teresting reading 20 every tax payer in the
County. How few give it even a cursory
glance. This failure on the part of the public
makes possible neglect Indifference, and eX-
trayaganc on the part of public officials. AS
Auditors of the County Comptroller's books,
appointed by the Resident Judge of this Coun-
ty' we feel that it is not only our privilege
but our duty to call the tax payers attention
to our county affairs, as revealed to US in the
performance of our duty said auditors
1t is a pleasure to note that the present
Sheriff has been having the prisoners work
out. and fair sum turned in from that
source.
We commend those of the County officials
who have faithfully performed the duties of
their offices with little, no extra cost to
the county
The body directly responsible to the people
for the expenditure of their money is the Levy
Court. Their task is a difficult one and nee
essarily trying one. It should require their
combined best efforts to see that no funds are
spent or allowances made, except where it
insures to the benefit of the tax producer.
The people are clamOring for lower taxes
| and for economy in administration of Govern
ment County well as State and Nation.
We commend Mr.. Meredith for his splendid
/ report and for his fathfulness to the tax paw
ers in the performance of his duties as Coun-
| ty Comptroller. We urge the tax Oavers not
only to read casually. hut carefully and criti
caly, the County Comptroller's reports as
they shall be published from year to year.

SCHOOL COLLEGE FAILUREs

Continued from Page Two
a college catalogue and look up the
entrance requirements for the course
he expects to follow. Not all high
school courses prepare for all college
courses.
Regular School Attendance Essential
In summing up we might say: that
regular attendance is essential to sue
cess; that good health should be a
prerequisite for entrance into college
he should be sound in body and
mind so that he may build a strong
head on strong shoulders; that mental
distractions and character defects
must be contrOlled; that heredity
plays no small part in adjusting him
self to his new environments. If a
student is of the fright sort" should
not failure inspire him to greater eff
| forts? Failure may become the step
( ping-stone to success. The lives of
our greatest statesmen and inventors
illustrate this, where only after re-
peated failure they achieved ultimate
success. The fact that in our local
high school we have sent twenty stu
dents to college in the past four years
with only four failures leads US to be-
lieve that if sixteen can make good
in college the four that failed must
either have been "lying down on the
job" or did not possess the ability to
"carry on" If there are two boys in
the same family brought up at the
same table one having normal growth
and development, physically; the other
being stunted and dwarfed in stature
surely the condition of the latter could
not be attributed to the cook or the
food he ate. If two students enrolled
in college one making good and the
other failing surely you would not at
tribute his failure to the method Of
presentation of subject matter or th'
course of study. Going to college, W.
might say, is similar to sitting dow
at the same table. The extent t.
which they assimilate this menta
food is purely a matter of individual
difference in the student.
At times an unscrupulous teache
may find it easier to pass a student
II whom she should have failed, rathe
II than face the usual criticism of a
II irate parent. At best it is a cOntinu
II Gus conflict between the teacher an
pupil to keep the latter at work. Tn
u teacher who is as "easy as an oil
III shoe" permitting pupils to "sli
III through" on high marks and with yer
III little effort, rarely, if ever, failing an
II student in her classes, becomes rathe
U popular with that type of pupil. W
= are also familiar with the teacher VIII
: intends to stay only until the end c
the school year and as a result, is onl
marking-time and drawing her salar.
In many instances the teacher ca
look for little help or cooperate
| from the home. We are living in tn
'unspanked age" The home seen
to throw the entire responsibility upo
the school, with the result, that whe
a student fails the parents nose
out of joint" and according to his NJ
ton the schools are being poorly MAJ
aged. In case of failure it would
wise for one to turn his eyes inwai
upon himself before looking for q
external excuse.
After all, is not the student recei'
ing as high an education as his Il
tellectual zeal will permit?
