SCHOOL NOTES


Hl-1 CluD HOlOS interesting session
The M. & M. Hi-Y club held a
most interesting discussion period
last Thursday. The discussion was
based on the theme Honesty" Ev-
ing and many good, sound, fiawless
arguments were brought forth. The
program for this week will be one
with great hopes for inter-city fell
lowship. Coach Dick Larkins of Ohio
State University has charge of the
program. He plans to bring pictures
of some of Ohio States football
games in the past, and his talk will
be along football lines. HiY clubs
of Crooksville, New Concord, Ma
rietta and GAINESVILLE have been ex-
tended invitations to come, and it is
hoped that they will accept. The
Hi-Y club is working hard toward
having a successful assembly, and
they promise to write many pages
in M. & NJ Hi-Y club annals
Father Preston Talks
Last Wednesday morning at the
chapel services in the high school
auditorium, Father Louis Preston
delivered one of the finest talks
heard for many days at Dear Mt.
Airy" His presentation was based
on the Fourth Commandment. His
vividness in painting a picture of
true mother love held his listeners
undivided attention, and left an in
delible mark on every heart. There
was no lingering doubt as to the
sincerity, directness, and truth of
that wonderful statement "a mans
best friend is his mother. The min
isterial association has provided the
local students with many fine ad-
dresses and it is hoped their efforts
in the future will be as much appre-
ciated as those of the past.
"One Point Games Hold Spotlight"
M. & M. high schools basketeers,
both boys and girls, again split hon.
ors over the week end. The girls
emerged victorious over Caldwell
lassies, 18 to II. The Little Reds"
led throughout, but were seriously
threatened when Nash, Caldwell
luminary, broke through time and
again, and in all rolled up IA
counters.
The boys game was fast, with
Caldwell scoring in the last five Sec
onds of play to completely destroy
NJ & MS slender hopes of winning
the Big Six League Cage Champion
ship. The M. e M. "Big Reds"
held lead in the first quarter, 5 to
2, and then a Caldwell rally placed
the Noble county Redskins" at the
helm, to S. Coming out at the
half, the local quintet outplayed
the visitors to bring the score to
at the end of the third quarter.
Then, suddenly finding themselves,
the big Reds" pushed through
Caldwell's inspired defense and with
the score IL to 9 wavered in their
victory march and were barely beat
en- 13 to 12. The game was heart
breaker, but we offer no alibi, and
turn to this weeks game with re-
newed hope of defeating New Lex
ington, high schools leaders, who
flung the sting of defeat squarely
in the locals faces earlier in the
season at McConnelsville. The line

STRAIGHT FROM WASHINGTON
(By Stephen M. Young)

If France and other defaulting
nations have friends on Capitol Hill,
they are singing low. France
maintains the largest standing army
in the world. It's government re-
fuses to pay the American people,
but spends twenty-nine of every
$1O0 raised by taxation, upon it's
army and navy. A congressman
said the only things worth while in
France are American cemeteries.
Congress is likely to close Amer
ican money markets to the sale OF
securities of nations who have de-
faulted on debts owing the Amer
ican people: also to levy a heavy
tax or embargo on French wines
and champagnes. Europeans will
understand that language.

Doris Duke inherited thirty mil

Concentration of vast wealth in
the hands of few makes mockery

There must be more equitable

RIDING TO PROSPERITY

A NEW picture of improved economic condi-
L n tons is given in figures just compiled by
the Travellers Insurance Co.
These figures show that automobile regis
tration in the United States in 1884 is running
close to the all-time record, and that gasoline
consumption is near the high mark Of few
years ago. For the first time since 1880, car
registrations are up-to better than 25,000,0o0,
gain of approximately per cent over 1888.
Gasoline consumption, also up about 6 per
cent, is the first gain in that field since 1881.
incidentally, the increase in auto registra-
tons shows a rise of not quite per cent in
private passenger cars and of more than per
cent in commercial vehicles.
All in ALL this is pretty fair evidence that
things are getting better More people are
driving cars now than at any time in four
years. That looks as if somebody had more
money than he did have.

STOP RIVER POLLUTION

A COMMITTEE of sportsmen and engineers,
n appointed by Secretary of War Dern, is
trying to evolve nationwide plan for the
elimination of pollution from American rivers
Here is program long overdue. No one
who lives in or near any American city can
have failed to notice the atrocious way in
which we have permitted industrial and other
wastes to turn once-sparkling rivers into be-
fouled, oily streams that are an offense to the
eyes, frequently to the nostrils and occasionally
to health itself.
Nobody can fish in such rivers, for the fish
are all dead. Nobody in his senses would swim
in them; even to go boating upon them is no
fun But it should be possible to restore many
of them to something like their original condi-
ton, and if that could be done both our recrea-
tional facilities and the looks of our country
side would be vastly improved
The Indianapolis times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1922-1965, 1934-12-15
A CONTRAST IN RELATIONSHIP

A MEXICAN and Japanese statesmen ex-
n change strongly worded notes about
naval limitation, and the naval stats of the
country hurry to perfect their plans for action
in case of war. Meanwhile japanese freight
steamer becomes disabled in a mid-Atlantic
gale, and American freight steamers rush to
the rescue, standing by in a binding storm to
save lives If the Japanese ship should
founder.
The contrast between the official relations
which nations maintain with each other and
the relations which their private citizens main
tain could hardly be more striking.
Japan is our potential enemy, and We are
Japan's potential enemy. so each of us must
prepare for war. But American sailors risk
their lives to save Japanese sailors from the
sea. and japanese sailors would do the same if
conditions were reversed.
Isn't there some way we car, translate this
ready neighborliness into the field of interna-
tional politics?

DREsIDENr RoosEvELTs executive ord

DRESIDENT ROOSEvELTS executive order
creating and manning the Federal Prison
Industries Corp. is aimed at an unem-
ployment problem or sinister aspects-idleness
in Federal prisons.
This corporation, authorized by the last
Congress, will set up industries in the 81 Fed
eral penal institutions for making articles for
state use. Today only about rs per cent Of the
1900 Federal prisoners are engaged in pro-
ductive labor The newer Federal prisons are
excellently equipped with other facilities, but
they lack means Of employing the inmates,
largely by reason of political pressure from
Congress.
The new corporation. headed by DR.. M. L.
Britain, seems to be composed of men intelli-
gent enough to work out the difficult problem
and strong enough to resist special pleading.
The recent Ulman report to NRA outlined
plan for state prisons that should dovetail
with the industrialization of Federal prisons.
This report urged that Federal relief and
PWA funds be used to set up prison plants for
the production of supplies needed by the state
itself. Thus idle convicts would get jobs with
out competing against free labor, and at the
same time would get training against the day
of their liberation.
Idleness among any group of able-bodied
men is dangerous to the peace and order of
society. Idleness among men cooped up in
prisons is particularly hazardous.

WHERE rs $3.50
A MONTH FOR AID?

By Unanimous.
In the state of Indiana in October,
according to an article in q certain
paper, there were 10000 families
working on Government employ
ment relief projects. In the same
paper, it also stated that in October,
1884, there was sum of three mil
lion dollars appropriated for the en-
ployment relief work. Three million
dollars for ten thousand families.
You divide three million by ten
thousand and you get three hundred
Three hundred dollars for every
family on relief work.
Did they get it? I should say not.
They got $12 a week, or about $50
for the month of October. What
happened with the rest of the $3.50
for each family? You know as well
as do where it went. I am not GO
ing to put it down on this piece Of
paper, but if you wish to tell the
public, do so.
Mr.. Editor, think I have made
my problem perfectly plain. You
may add the answer. 1t can be done
with one word.

Relief For the AGED

What a grand civilization looms
at the prospect of the grand old
men of our times and those to
come freed from hunger worry,
and shelter and financial worry.
Men freed give to aspiring, eager,
inquisitive youngster from the
wealth of their background ex-
periences paid for so dearly in
their bout with life.
Even the savages listened to
their old men. Most frequently
the medicine man, the doctor, or
the chief was an aged and wise
soul. If the young generations
would heed their old men there
would be less rashnesS, less error,
far less misery. In the end, young
folk have their own way. 1t is
only too evident that little
knowledge from the wise old heads
could hardly harm them.
Youth should be protected, tu-
tored, prepared and given oppor-
tunity to express itself.
Once out into the stream of life
it should take firm hold of the
horns of government and the adj
miniStration of business.
In old age there should be pro-
lection, peace, prosperity. All
should heed the words of the wise.
The wise generally are the oldest.
