The feature Of the vacation
school has been the exceptional
memory work done by the pupils
Of the Douglas public school.
1t has been established and
shown that young people can have

of consecrated Christian people is
one of the most uplifting and posi-

Of young people.

Mexico's Bid

Golfers posthumous publication of the Mexican motor trip description of the late William G. Shepherd, the veteran war correspondent, will bring forth express sions of opinion. It will probably also result in increased Mexican tours next summer when the Laredo, Texas, Mexico City motor highway will be completed and open all the way to the Mexican capital. It is almost necessary, though, to read the Shepherd description to become really enthused over the trip. Judging by what he says the motorist will be plunged into a fairyland.
 Other than that it may be stated that this is Mexicos first contribution to the proposed and much-discussed Pan-Amer- ican highway which will run from the lower tip of this side of the globe to the topmost one In short some day 1t may be possible for the man who has the lels- ure and the money to drive from northern Canada to the end of South America The distance from Laredo to Mexico City IS only 800 miles long, but it traverses country of such beauty that 1t would require Shepherd to give 1t justice.
 We could quote at length from his charming article on this parkway. He himself made the trip, perilous as it was i over du uIlIlIllSIlSu oIlOI Ciy bOIoIS his death. His article says, "This road is Mexico's surprise gift to North America. It's even more than that. It's her gift to all South America as we'll, for the high way that the Mexicans have been hewing through the mountains and across the great central plateau is, with its exten- sion south from Mexico City, the first 1,O00-mile link in the great Pan-American narkwav which will one day reach across the soil of 12 nations, from Canada down to the lower tip of South America. :"
 One of the longest stretches of straight road in the world is on the route, 45 miles without curve. The road reaches $500 feet above sea level at one point north of Mexico City. Climate such as one dreams about is to be found. This sounds as if we, were almost selling the road to Con- necticut motorists. We're not. We believe in seeing the United States first. But if YOU want something in motoring hitherto believed impossible consider the new Mex ican trip as that vacation of the future.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1933-12-08
You Can See It Coming

Government regulation of liquor prices is in the offing. The first few days of prohibitions repeal certainly indicated that. And now we have it in writing that Uncle Sam will keep close watch on the industry to discourage all attempts at profiteering and to prevent lacking of either wholesale or retail prices. Ot course, to do this there must be reason able tax on domestic brands and similar tariff on imported ones.
 In an effort to be fair the federal gov ernment is. calling upon the distiller, the wholesaler, and the importer to post with in few days the prices at which their products are being sold to the retailer. These figures will be made public and It won't require much understanding upon the part of the public to see just how much profit is being made by the retailer.
 No effort is being made to convict any retailer of unfair tactics in this procedure. It is simply an effort to keep liquor sales without bounds. We've got rid of our dry laws. Unless we move carefully and cautiously we may have them back. Dur ing the thirteen years that prohibition existed in the United States illicit sales of liquor deprived the government of mil lions in taxes. They also cost the average man pretty penny annually. The same fancy prices on legal liquor that were paid for the illegal stuff will simply be signal for the bootlegger to secure his former patronage at cut rates.
 It will be to the ultimate benefit of all concerned that these manufacturing prices be issued. There is no effort being made to deprive the liquor retailer of just profit. That can be made easily enough without high prices. It certainly doesrl't cost any more to make liquors to- day than it did before 1920. True, SUD- plies of bonded liquors may be low, but it must be remembered that the buying public right now hasn't funds for high priced liquors. They must be brought within the reach of the purse of all of us. We haven't waited 13 years to buy legal liquor at bootleg prices.

with flying wings. It is he who explores the unknown regions of the upper atmos- phere and determines attitudes, distances. etc, so needful if the successful navigation of the air is to be continued. While the flight from Africa to Brazil was just a mere 1875 mile journey, it was perhaps as hazardous to the Colonel as any he has ever made due to the fact that he was accompanied by his wife.
 If there were more air-minded people like the Lindberghs, aviation would be materially aided. However, it usually remains for some one man to blaze the trail. Others then fall in line. The United States has long held the Lone Eagle in high esteem. In the days to come it will learn to think in even higher terms of praise of this individual who almost single-handed had produced vast amount of data of priceless value to the government and to the aviation industry, If any one man has proved the value of the .airplane as a means of communlca- tion and travel it is Lindbergh.
