1.-THE human mind has invaded many
places and overturned many widely &C
copied concepts in it's quest for know
ledge. 1t has gone into the field OF
microscopic things, Stalked disease to
its origin and rid the race of the super
stition that epidemics are the acts OF
God to be accepted for their soul
purifying effects. The depths of the
earth have been compelled to yield
their secrets and add not only to mans
knowledge but also to his material well
being The physical and natural
sciences have enabled man to inveSti-
gate hidden recesses and bring forth
truths capable of translating the con-
ditions of all men to plane not at
tainable by all the royalties OF the long
ago. Society has builded great enter
priSeS which have cemented the bonds
of interdependence and the messengers
of the nations speed over land and
sea-and through the air, bearing the
products of mans ingenuity along the
tortuous channels of trade. All OF
which we term progress to be viewed
with optimism, were it not for the fact
that with all his ability man has not
learned the art of living in harmony
with his neighbor.
There are those who say that while
we have enjoyed stupendous material
progress, we have become material
minded; we have measured achievement
with material measuring sticks. We
have been so concerned with materia,
well being that we have lost sight Of
spiritual values! We have gained q
modicum of political freedom; but the
individual is still lost in the complex
ties. of modern life and social anC
economic justice is far from complete
The educator has been negligent of hi:
opportunities, his voice has. been weak
he has lacked vision and leadership, hi
has left his post in the face of criticism
and danger and permitted civilization
to totter under the blows of social anc
economic chaos. He has countenancec
the exploitation of the weak and turned
his face against the advent of new
day. The educator has proved himsel.

COUNTY FAIR"
HUGE SUCCESS
Thousands of Elyites Frolicked
an Entertainment Given by
Drum-Bugle Corps.

Carnival spirit reigned supreme at
the Washington auditorium, THURSDAY,
Friday and Saturday evenings, when
thousands of Elyites frolicked at the
American Legion Drum and Bugle
Corps County Fair"
Everything in carnival entertainment
from Madam Zenda, the fortune teller,
fish pond and keno games to big time
floor show acts featuring Twin City
stage and radio stars was on the pro-
gram. Dancing, guessing contests, ex-
hibit booths of local stores and refresh
ment stands kept the large crowds en-
tertained.
The newest fashions of the season
were gracefully modelled by nine local
young ladies in the style show which
shared the spotlight with the floor
show as-the outstanding features Of the
Thursday and Friday programs. Spon-
sored by Handberg's Shop, the style
show presented beautiful creations In
evening and afternoon gowns, beach
costume and riding habit. The models
included Verna Martin, Helen Roiko,
Frances Shepel, Sarah Hanson, Lois
Odgers. Coral Hillman, Isabelle Nan
kervis, Barbara Schmid and Ernestine
Hellberg.
Without doubt the best entertainment
of its kind ever seen here, the floor
show scored tremendous hit with the
audiences each evening. Virginia Bran
ma, nationally known blues singer, and
80
Williams shared the floor show honors'
Miss Brannas singing brought storms
of applause and the dance teams pre-
sentation of current popular steps was
easily the best act of its kind ever seen
here. The rag doll dance scored big
hit with the audience.
Legion committees, under the dlrec-
ton of Harold Dillon and Albert Nc
Mahan, chairman and sub-chairman
for the event, accomplished an excellent
lob in arranging the multitude Of details
for the carnival. The arrangement OF
the booths and concessions and decor
alton of the auditorium was particularly
good.
Miss Katherine Peshel won the bicycle
which was given as the grand prize at
the keno game.
Music for the jitney dances, Thursday
and Friday evenings and the grand
ball Saturday was furnished by Tony
Trotto's orchestra from Virginia Much
credit for the success of the show is
due James Kearney, Virginia, who pro-
fessionally guided the programs on each
evening as master of ceremony.
