DIED..
HENRY BROADWATER.

Henry BroadWateT, { prominent and
highly esteemed citizen of New
Germany, died last Saturday morning
at the age of 81 years, months and
~ days. He was a veteran of the
Civil War, and when he decided to en-
list in the service of his country he
left his pillow standing in the furrow,
and for the next three years served
his country faithfully and well in the
cause of human freedom and against
secession. Shortly before taps were
sounded for the gallant old veteran, he
requested that his body be buried with
military honors at the hands of the
American Legion.
Agreeable to his request, thirteen
members of Earl H. Opel Post, of
Salisbury, went to the late home of
the deceased, Monday afternoon, with
a firing squad, color bearer and H.
H. Statler as bugler, and officiated at
the burial The exercises were very
impressive, and many friends and rel
atives attended the obsequies to pay
their last respects to one whom they
held in high esteem not only as SOL
der, but also as a citizen, friend and
neighbor.
He is survived by his wife, three
sons and three daughters, as follows:
Charles and James, at home; Salem
of Deer Park; Bertha, at home; Della

THE PASSING OF A FRIEND.

In the death of Charles A. Deffin-
baugh, editor of The Mountain Demo-
crat, Oakland has sustained the loss
of one who has ever held the welfare
of the town and community upper
most in those things he deemed ma
terial and essential to the betterment
of the whole people.
As one engaged in the making Of
a newspaper it was always his desire
to be fair, honorable, clean and trust
worthy. He was true to his prlncl-
pies in his dealings with all men and
in all that he did. He was broad
minded in his relations with those
who held opposite views politically,
in spite of the fact that he was looked
upon as being intensely partisan. In
all the years he was engaged as pub
Usher of The Democrat friendly
and fraternal spirit with those like
wise engaged was ever existent.
The Republican keenly feels his
passing. His was kindly disposition.
As boys we were friends and with the
passing of the years this friendly
spirit was not allowed to lag, but be-
came all the stronger.
We have lost fine, true-hearted,
trustworthy kindly neighbor, and in
his death we can truly say We have
lost one whose friendship we valued
and the remembrance of whose eX-
ceeding kindness and true fraternal
love and consideration we shall ever
cherish.
May his spirit rest in everlasting
peace.

of St. Marks Church.

St. Marks Lutheran church has en-
joyed an unusual Christmas season.
The pastor, in simple, yet striking
manner, held before his people
throughout the season of Advent, the
coming of the Master, which did much
to make Christmas such an enjoyable
season for his people.
The stately Christmas tree standing
on the lawn in front of the church, il
Illuminated with colored electric lights,
was a new feature and attracted at
tention as we'll as much favorable
comment. The current for the lights
was furnished by the West Penn Pow
er Company free of charge.
The annual children's Christmas
service on Christmas eve was well
rendered before crowded house. The
children, directed by Mrs. Lewis Bush,
gave half an hour of recitations and
exercises and sung Christmas songs.
This was followed by striking pag-
cant, "The Old, Old Story" directed
by Mrs. Ernest Townshend.
The early dawn service on Christ
mas morning at six O'Clock was well
attended. The church choir rendered
beautiful Christmas anthem and led
in the singing of the carols. Pastor
Shilke gave a short eXhortation on
"Those Who Greeted the Master"
This was indeed beautiful service.
Sunday school Sunday morning was
we'll attended. The church service was
also we'll attended. The pastors SER
mon, "The Great JOY" was interest
ing. At the evening service he spoke
of the Christmas carols and gave a
brief review of the three most strik-
ing ones.
In connection with the morning
service the following members of the
council, who had been elected the pre-
ceding Sunday, were installed: j. c.
Renninger, w. H. Hinebaugh and
Henry Lauer. Officers of the Sunday
school were also installed, as follows:

THE BOY OF TODAY.

Just at present there is a laudable
disposition on the part of our public
men to come to the defense of the
boys of the present generation. At
a recent address in Chicago, Cameron
Beck, personnel director of the New
York Stock Exchange, declared that
the present generation of boys is the
finest in all history. "They are eX-
ceptionally honest" he declared, and
business men are trying to do every
thing they can to help boys" Mr..
Beck was backed up in the same meet
ing by Judge Benjamin F. Jones, for
mer president of the Lions Inter
national Organization, who declared
that in spite Of the dark picture of
modern youth being painted by some
judges, publicists and writers in gen.
eral, he is of the opinion that the
boys and girls now have finer con-
ception of life than ever before.
Another public man who has come
to the defense of modern youth is
DR.. Mather A. Abbott, headmaster of
the Lawrenceville School for Boys
who wrote recently in the New York
Nation, that he finds a remarkable
standard Of truth telling and honor
among the boys of his acquaintance.
A boys word, he declared, once given
g ,o,o1v, hrO1ynn onI Tho -hO1 Ia
he is a clean minded individual.
The words of these men who have
an intimate contact with modern
youth, ought to be reassuring to come
of our dark minded pessimists who
have been telling US that the present
generation is going to the dogs. 1t
is true that there are some boys who
turn bandits and others who drink
synthetic liquor and make fools of
themselves generally. But the num-
Der of these, does not compare even
fractionally with that of the bright
and active youngsters who are enter
ing our business world today from the
bottom, who are studying to become
the mechanics, the electricians, the
chemists, the doctors and the lawyers
of the future. Interest in science and
mechanics among boys is new greater
than it has ever been.
Most of US feel sure that the world
is on the eve of great scientific dis
coveries which will add to the peace
the happiness and the longevity Of
our people. We are confident that
many of these discoveries will, comi
within the next ten, twenty-five OF
fifty years. But these things car not
come if the boys and girls of today
are going to the dogs.
But they are not, and the grea
benefact0rs of mankind for the mex
generation are now in the schools, il
the workshops, and in our great bust
ness establishments occupying minol
places but with the real American
spirit which Will enable then, to rist
above their surroundings.

MOUNTAIN LAKE PARK

The Christmas service conducted at
the M. E. church showed the efficien-
cy of Mrs. H. C. Leighton and Miss
Mildred yelling, who trained the chill
dren in their parts. Everybody pres
ent were not only entertained but
had several lessons bearing on the hol-
iday season brought home to them.
Several of the young people were
at their homes here for the holiday
season, including Mr.. and Mrs. L. w.
Stephenson, of Rosewood, Ohio; Miss
Margaret Leighton, of the Maryland
University; Carlton Chance, Garth
right May, Niles Falkenstein and Ar
chic Oswald.
The heavy sleet of Christmas night
caused several of the large trees in
the Park to fall, one of which struck
the garage at the Oswald home, do
ing some damage. Another fell on the
Edwards property and smashed a Sec
ton of the fence and carried down
several telephone and electric wires.
No other damage, so far as we can
learn, resulted.

burg, West Va, was here visiting his

NO OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES?

An Eastern business executive, writ
in the January issue of Success Mag
azine, has denounced college gradu-
ates and has refused to employ them
hereafter. He gave eight reasons why
he had had his fill of college trained
men and they may be summed up in
a few words: Predudices against the
business world; lack of ability to
think, to make reasoned and practical
deductions; because of pleasure low
ing habits; their unwillingness to
start work at salary that they are
worth and constant desire for raises
in salary; because of the notion that
they are better than the non college
workers, and because of their I'M
willingness to stick to the job, their
laziness, irregular hours, desire for
much time off and their casual atti-
tude toward their work.
After reading these reasons over,
it is the opinion of the writer that the
eastern executive was somewhat hasty
in his assertion. Does any man who
has come in contact with only small
percentage of college graduates of
the United States or the world, have
right to make a generalization that
is supposed to apply to all college
graduates?
Take the reasons that the executive
gave for not employing college train
ed men. They can be applied just as
easily to thousands of men who never
even saw a college OF university and
they will probably outnumber the
college attendants. 1t is readily adj
mitted that many graduates of col
leges are as he says, but the word
does not include a majority by any
means and it is unfair to the college
men for him to generalize upon the in
efficiency of few.
What would the medical profession
be without college trained men? How
far would the world have advanced in
scientific methods, knowledge of the
universe, if it were not for the col
lege trained men? What would the
law profession be without college
trained men? Any sort of engineer
ing, modern agriculture, in fact any
business, profession or research work.
This eastern executive did not
think as he sat in his Office writing
the article against college graduates
and trained men that if it had not
been for them, the building in which
his office was located probably would
never have been erected, and that
modern sky scrapers would be only
imaginative.
He has said that no college graduate
need apply to him for employment
because he would get no consideration,
and that he had had his fill of them.
Good enough. College graduates
probably have no desire to work under
such an employer.
In the meantime, all the colleges
and universities throughout the world
will keep on graduating thousands
and millions of men and women, and
they will continue to find employment
notwithstanding the fact there is a
business executive who, having been
made sour by contact with several
demons" feels that all graduates of
! colleges are worthless.
The fact that there is crime in the
world does not make everybody a
criminal.

And this image seems to be reflect

again, to envelope in semi-mystic glory
the Father" and the Savior" of this
capitalistic republic.
But why were these particular men,
George Washington and Abraham Lin
coin, chosen to be the national demi-
gods?
Who was George Washington?
There have been many efforts by
critical writer's to show that Washing
ton was merely an ordinary land-thief
and speculator-a sharp, greedy, land
ed aristocrat and owner of many black
slaves who never closed his eye to the
chance to make a few dollars. In re-
cent times, many efforts among the
petty bourgeois iconoelasts to show in
a timid way that Washington danced
all night, fiirted with women and liked
to drink wine," have caused little
tempests of scandal.
For the intelligent American work
ing class all of this is self-evident, and
unimportant. or course Washington
was land SPECTATOR, a slave driver,
money grabber a drinker of wine
and chaser of women. We know that
simply because we know that George
Washington was the best possible ex-

George Washington the Father"

Gratis had grown so powerful as to
already feel that they no longer re-
quired the military protection of Eng
land. The war between England and
France in which took the American
form of the so-called French and
Indian war" had developed the milit-
airy capacity and the confidence OF
the American colonial wealthy classes.
In this war George Washington was
developed into a man Of military ex-
perience. Washington was far from
being a weak figure. Appointed a
colonel when mere boy OF %, George
showed qualities that were to be use
full in his revolutionary part later on.
He was with General Braddoek when
the British forces were disastrously
defeated by the French and Indians.
In this defeat George. as commander
Of the colonial irregular troops, is
said to have done fairly well in saw
ing the regulars from humiliation.
But in doing so he learned a great les
son in the weakness of the methods OF
the classic military school of Europe
for application under the conditions
of fighting in the backwoods. This
lesson Washington was able later to
extend into greater lesson-one that
is good even to this day-that the
military science undergoes deep
change in the conditions OF revolution
airy civil warfare. n
