VALENTINE DAY 40 YEARS AGO
o.
Valentine Day At Ocean View A Half
Century Later

My heart leapt up whene'er 1 heard
That Valentine Day was near;
For Valetine Day was such a word
AS thrilled but once year.
There's Thanksgiving 1 know,
The days of Easter, the Fourth, and
the Yule;
But Valentine Day is unique, I
trOw,
Being holiday spent at school.
8
In pre-school days excitement STIR
red,
The teachers put out, and his arms
out Of place;
For big boys grew bold under the
spell of this word,
And ousted the teacher, daring dis
grace.
In later days the teacher announced,
''No school, my dears, this after
noon,"
Was he afraid he would be bounced
By boys who should respect his
throne?
After dinner, schools came,
From districts, far and near,
The lassies and redolent beaux.
"Bull Pen" was the game
That drew the men, and the boys,
too big to fear.
Such crowds, now-never boosted,
even by the shows.
6
Little boys played corner ball." or
cat;"
The girls and the "sissies" in games
with kisses,
Joined in circles by dozen and score.
Some, eighteen and older, never
played-just sat
In the schoolhouse, the fellows and
the misses,
And made history we call days Of
yore."
Oh, we had the hideous pictures,
Which we put in the mail,
And guessed wrong very often
Who, by faces with such fixtures,
Tade our vanity grow pale,
Till anger to laughter did soften.
8
III, "the good old days that are
gone,"
hey were 1awless and free.
10 the lads and the lasses Of the
age now on
now Valentine Day as did we?

SELBYVILLE TEACHER
WINS $500 IN GOLD
Last Saturday was lucky day
for c. w. Jarrett, Principal Of the
SelbyVille Public Schools, and he is
just $500 richer by having exercised
MS ability to suggest a slogan"
which was submitted in the contest
that ended last Saturday by him be-
ing awarded the winners prize by
the jury created to make the award.
He was the first prize winner IN
Contest No. 6, in a field Of twenty
eight others entering the contest.
The Public Ledger IN its report OF
the contest said last Sunday, viz:
And here is one of those curious
things that make these contests so
popular. The first prize winner is
man familiar with the best in Eng
fish literature, with Latin and Greek
and German and French, While the
fourth prize winner manages a gro
Gerry store.
1.-The second prize winner is a pur-
agent and the third gentle
little lady who keeps house for her
father"
Mr.. Jarrett is superintendent OF
public schools in Selbyville, and al
though he has been a keen conpetl-
tor in these contests for three years, I
this is the first prize he mas ever
won.
He is AZ years old and married. He
was graduated from Bucknell in 1906
and for a time taught Latin and
English at the Lyken (Pa.) high
School. Later he went to Mahanoy
City, Pa, to become head of the Eng
fish department in the high school
there. He next transferred to Mill
Vile (DeI.) High School, and five
years ago changed to Selbyville.
"Of course, 1 am pleased after
working all this time trying to place
among the winners" he said.
The Public Ledger-as new
as the morning.
There you have his winning slo-
gan. Simple, isn't it? But then the
greatest things in life are simple.
