THE SHEPHERD WITHIN THE
FOLD.
By DIR. Bowen.

The man of God gone Home,
Rewards of duty come,
The Manse and then the tomb
Gone Home.
Servant of God passed on,
The heights of Glory won,
The Masters words, Well Done
Gone Home.
All sorrow left behind,
All worries of the mind,
The unwithering Chimes to find
Gone Home. )
The ills of life all flown,
The Promises dearer grown,
The Pulpit for the Throne
Gone Home.
Loved faces and loves smile,
Sore partings for awhile,
Then where no taints defile-
Gone Home.
Where joy Eliminates,
There by the Pearly Gates
His loved ones he awaits
Gone Home.
At rest from cares and fears,
Near those his heart endears,
His old Pensioners
Gone Home.

the school year will not be reappoint-
ed after the final semester of that
school term, according to ruling of
the County Board of Education.
This regulation will not apply to
teachers now married, who will be
permitted to continue.
The action of the Board, Superin-
tendent James M. Bennett said, was
prompted by criticism of the school
officials upon the score of not having
sufficient vacancies to appoint Nor
NAL School graduates to positions in
the county.

Old BACHE L0RS
ARE SLAMMED
BY US. EXPERT
Generally Speaking He Is
Failure In Federal
Service.
United Pres. Staff Correspondent

United Press Staff CORRESPONDENT
WASHINGTON, March lathe
"old bachelor generally speaking,
Is a failure in Uncle Sans service.
Herbert D. Brown, efficiency ex-
pert for the Government. told ths
United Press today in an exclusive
interview that he had yet to see n
really successful bachelor in ths
service.
The bachelor man, unlike the ''old
maid'-designate by Brown as the
gem of Government servants - is
selfish and does not get very far, he
said.
Favors Little Men
Little men, the rNapolenns.' are
likely to be buzz saws Brown said.
s'BaclGbones often come in short
measure.
1.-THE lean, hungry man who sleeps
less at night is the second of two
physical types usually successful in
business life"
Big men, six feet tall and a yard
wide. are often too cumbersome to
SuCCSSu LII NIOVSGIIIlGIlJ OI
cial life, Brown said. Fat men are
too easy going. The expert said these
two types let the slim and sprightly
chaps run circles around them.
n Married men make the best en-
&ployes," Brown continued. There
must be a great deal Of give-and-
take in commercial life and there is
no better place to learn 1t than
through the exigencies of married
life."
Against Youngsters
Youngsters are not stars in the
business world, he pointed out Men
do not get their stride until after
they are 30. By that time they have
settled to their work as a career.
1.-THE restless, squirming, intelli-
gent optimist is likely to rise in the
world. AT 40 or so years he may
find himself a leader. This type is
always of the belief that progress
ds being made.
but the other mental type of
man sticks to the statu quo. He
always presents an excuse for not
doing something new The most in
excusable person 1 can think of is
the one who instinctively seeks a
treason for not doing some advisable
thing"
Brown said the college man al
ways has a chance to rise. College
men should not be mere theorists,
tbut think also on the practical side
oof things, he warned.
There is another type Of man
who is successful in the commercial
field" the chief efficiency expert
ssaid. HE comes from the outside
Rnowing little Of the problems of
the task he is undertaking. This
man is active, resourceful and full
of accomplishments. He supplements
and leads but leans on the detail
man who has grown up in the serv-
ice. The two make a good team"

MEIGHAN JAILED

On the day he was elected Shep- herd of the Lambs, the highest honor in the theatrical profession, Thomas Meighan spent the entire morning in jail. The charge against him was grand larceny, for, according to the thrilling plot of Tongues of Flame" he had failed to account to his en- ployers for s2O,OOO in gold entrusted to his care.
 As a matter of fact, the jail was built on the back lot of Famous Play CTS Long Island Studio, and Tom could walk out of it any time Director Joseph Henabery gave the word. But some of his fellow Lambs would have had a good laugh if they could have seen their new shepherd languishing in the grilled fold.
 Bessie Love and Eileen Percy are featured in support of Meighan in Tongues of Flame" which will be shown tonight at the Liberty.
