School Aid Program
No funds have been allotted
for School Aid as yet, Mr.. Beatty
stated. However, it is expected
that about 300 students in high
school and colleges will be aided
with part-time jobs during the
coming school year. About 200
high school students will be al
lowed to earn $500 per month
which provides carfare, lunches,
books, and other essentials. These
jobs will be planned and super
vised by local school officials. AS
soon as funds are available, quotas
will be allocated to counties. At
that time principals and county
superintendent will be able to
take applications for this aid.
Under the College Aid Program,
twelve percent Of the student
bodies, based on last years en-
rollment, in all non-profit colleges
of the State are eligible for aid
in the form OF partrtime jobs
averaging $500 per, month. 1t
is expected that the NYA will aid
nearly 10o0irneedy college students
during the coming year. Appli-
cations are made direct to the in
stitution which the student wishes
to attend. Selections are made by
the college authorities on the
basis of need and ability to do
good college work.
Mr.. Beatty stated that in
creased emphasis will be placed
on vocational guidance and dis
tribution OF occupational informa-
ton for young people. 1t is ex-
pected that funds viii be al
located for Junior Placement
services in connection with exist
ing employment agencies.

Only yesterday District Commits
sioner George E. Allen indicated he
would resign before the expiration of
his term January IS, 1887. He ex-
planned he would not leave, however,
until after the political campaign in
November. The Commissioner did not
state his reason for leaving the Dis

Allen indicated he probably would
return to the hotel business, from
which he came to the District Build

James Noe, a lieutenant OF the late
Senator, declined to comment on the
decision.
In a five-to-four decision, the court
upheld the New York milk act inso-
far as it authorized the fixing OF
a one-cent price differential in favor
of independent milk dealers without
well-advertised trade names. Well
advertised dealers contended the sec
ton requiring them to sell their milk
for a cent more quart was unconsti-
tutional.
Justices McReynolds, Sutherland,
Van Devanter and Butler dissented.
McReynolds said the majority's views
presented a case of rank discrimina-
ton"
The court. however. found another
section of the act invalid. This sec
tion provided the benefit OF the price
differential was available only to in
dependent dealers in business con-
tinuously since enactment of the legis-
lation in 1898. Justices Brandeis,
Stone and Cardozo diSSented. The
question Of whether this section can
be separated from the rest of the act
was left to the State courts.
Large Crowd Disappointed.

legislation. Among those present in

The best guess at the District Build
ing was that some one not now in
the corporation counsels office would
get the call Apparently that will be
the case even if Democratic leaders
give the Commissioners a free hand
in the appointment, according to talk
at the District Building.

neys were mentioned prior to the ap-
pointment of Prettyman. They were

counsel; Walter Fowler, another as

the post as yet.
Prettyman was named two years ago
as the successor to the late William
w. Bride, who resigned after the Com
missioners received a request from the
White House for the appointment Of
Prettyman, according to reliable re-
ports.
Prettyman formerly had served for a

Transforming the Common Task

TT IS safe to say that the great ma
jority Of individuals perform the
u usual routine duties over and over
again. 1t is not difficult for them to
foresee when they arise in the morn
ing just what the days work will be,
and if the work is of somewhat un-
interesting character the perform
ance of it may be allowed to descend
into a mere perfunctory operation,
mechanical round, which affords lit
tie pleasure to the individual.
There are few things more delight
full than the ability to look forward
to ones daily work and to enter upon
1t with zest and spontaneity. The
trivial round, the common task,
becomes transformed when per-
formed in this way. Sloth is ban
ished, and any sense of drudgery
abolished. Duties which might 9TH
erwise seem monotonous or arduous,
if not indeed onerous, are lightened
when the heart, having learned some
thing of the true nature of service,
sings at its work. :.
George Herbert must have recog-
nized this fact when he wrote,
"Who sweeps a room as for Thy
laws
Makes that and the action
fine"
Indeed, the efficient performance of
our present task is often the first
step towards the gaining of a more
responsible and congenial one. I'M
provement in any phase of our eX-
perience must begin right where we
are. Today, the present moment, is
ours in which to make a new begin
ming from which to transform our
activity in the trivial round, the
common task" into something APP
proXimating perfection.
The keynote of such transforma
ton lies in an apprehension of the
truth about God and mans relation
ship to Him. AS it is seen that God,
Spirit, is the author or creator of
spiritual perfection only, as must
inevitably be the case, it is also seen
that the man of His creating mus be,
and is, spiritual and perfect; for like
can only produce like. What a new
and delightful incentive for right
eous and useful living comes with
such a revelation! How changed be-
comes ones outlook upon life in gen.
eral! Not personal aggrandizement
or gain, but opportunity for helpful
service becomes ones chief concern.
Unsettled love has been admitted into
thought, and has begun it's benevo-
lent reign in our everyday experience.
No greater blessing could possibly be
ours.
1t has been truly said that in the

Simultaneously with their safety
campaign for employees, the company
is putting before the public, in 1886,
the results of trespassing on railway
property and attempting to influence
those who may be tempted to do so,
to refrain from this practice.

killed on railroads was 1854 and in
