The Dawson news. (Dawson, Ga.) 1889-current, 1925-10-06

In England there are now 100000 unem-
ployed worknen, according to official reports.
England is reaping the result of its foolish
dole system, under which certain amount
is paid weekly to every unemployed person.
1t encourages laziness and trihingness, and it
is reported that industries cannot procure
enough labor to operate their plants.

A skillet placed on a cake of ice was heat
ed sufficiently by radio waves passing through
the block to fry an egg. The waves also
were passed through the ice to light lamp
and likewise through a mans head. Radio
continues to be an absorbing mystery, which,
like that of electricity itself, may never be
wholly understood.

OUR SCHOOLS MUST
BE ABOVE REPROACH

Over half the money paid in
taxes is used to keep our public
schools running. This vast ex-
penditure must be spent wisely
and well if the people who pay the
taxes and the parents who have
school children are to be kept sat
isfied. For many weeks an ugly
rumor has been going the rounds
concerning alleged Irregularities
in the handling of special funds
during the past school year. This
paper doesn't believe in paying
attention to idle rumors taken
generally, but when tales spread
which threaten to disrupt school
district, and hurt the influence of
our one public institution in which
all have certain pride, it appears
to be duty for the mess to be
cleared up justly and without
fear or favor.
A number of tales are afloat.
Ii they are false, then they should
be traced to the source and IL
bel action should be followed un.
less retracted. If they are true,
they should be substantiated, and
the guilty one forthwith dismiss
ed. This paper feels the three
members of the board of educa-
ton are anxious to deal fairly by
both the district and the teachers.
They cannot be expected to heark-
en- to idle stories. If any person
in the district has actual know
ledge of the misuse of school
funds, it is the duty of such per-
son to come before the board with
such informationt and substanti-
ate the same by affidavit or depo-
sition. 1t is then the duty of the
board to act upon the same. If
no one has any positive informa-
ton of the abuse of funds, they
are doing the district grave wrong,
and the one against whom it is re,
peated a great injustice, in spread
ing such tales. School children
are quick to pick up chatter, and
the influence for good of any
teacher is neutralized when there
exists an honest feeling in the
minds of the pupils that such
teacher is not "square. !"
The News Record doesn't pre-
tend to know the truth or falsity
of the tales that are going. the
rounds. 1t does desire to serve
wisely and well the school district,
and thus uses this method of de-
manding that one of two things
be done at once: Either prove
these stories false and let them
die, and give the teacher clean
start the coming school year, or
prove them true and dismiss the
teacher as one unworthy of his
calling. One thing is evident-no
good school work can be done the
coming year in the Vashon High
School unless the atmosphere is
cleared by action being taken "a
long one of the two lines above
suggested.
