p. T. A. Meeting

The P. T. A. meeting which was
held in the High School auditorium
Thursday night was enjoyed by all
present. After short business
session the Civic Club of the school
presented one-act play entitled Cor
ville's Big Date" The characters
took their parts very well and the
auditorium liked the little play very
much. Following the play Mr.. Fock-
Ter, principal of Chesapeake City
High School, gave very interesting
and pertinent talk on County Fed
Grated Taunt Teachers Organization"
From his talk many good points were
brought out concerning the activities
of the P. T. AS. Mr.. Fockler said
that different P. T. AS. of Cecil
county had various interests. Some
are interested in having the best pos
sible schools for the children. Some
are vitality interested in all school
questions which might concern the
children. Mr.. Fockler felt that the
public did not know enough about
the schools. He talked about several
questions which every parent should
know something about. Some of
them were: What are our children
doing in Cecil county in their school
work compared to other counties :?
Is there testing system in our
schools Do we have a good work
ing system? In the high schools
how many fire periods does the prin-
cipal have? What is the supervising
system of our schools?" Mr.. Fock-
Ter felt that P. T. AS. did not know
enough about these things. He said
that there are many functions or
things that P. T. A. society can do.
First, they can appoint committee
to study all school problems that
might be in dispute. This commit
tee could study these questions from
every angle and then try to get the
best things possible for the schools.
He said committee of this type
could work with the supervisor and
officials of schools to try and get i'm
provements in the schools. Mr..
Fockler proved to everyone from his
talk that the P. T. AS. can really be
of value to a community and to a
school if they would indulge in these
various activities.
Concluding, Mr.. Fockler said that
more interest was going to be given
to the County Federated P. T. AS.
and other organizations of this type
all over Cecil county.
Mr.. Beachley, principal of North
East High School, was also a visitor
of our meeting.

Rising Sun High School News
BY THE JOURNALISM CLUB

At this time the Journalism Club
of Rising Sun High School wishes to
thank Mr.. Ewing, of the Midland
Jaurnal Office, for the space in the
paper each week and also for the
copies of the paper which the MEM
bers receive.
We feel that those pupils who are
interested in writing are greatly
benefited by the Journalism Club and
can gain experience. Through the
Midland Journal we can get our news
published, and by having our own
news articles appear in print we can
tell the public what we. are doing in
our school.

THE HOME WHERE THERE ARE
NO BROKEN TIES
Evangelist John Moses Baker
Baltimore, Maryland

Are you laying up your treasurers
over yonder,
In that land where none will ever
sigh?
Are you living every day for the
Master?
Remember, He is coming by and
by.
Have you put on your wedding gar
ment,
The Righteousness of Jesus Christ
our King?
Are you sowing the good seed in
every word and deed?
A blessed harvest you some day
will bring.
The glorious fruits are ours of a
Saviour's dying love;
We may always find in Christ
sure retreat,
When the storms Of life are beating
all around us;
Our safety in His blessed keeping,
oh, how sweet.
The years are passing by into the
shadows;
The sun is sinking low in western
skies;
Are you setting your affections on
that city,
The home where there are no
broken ties?

BEARING OUR CROSS"

AS we struggle up life's lone path

Many are the crosses and snares,
Many are teardrops we shed on the
way,
Many are the tolls and cares
Yea, remember our dear loved
Master,
The Footsore path He trod,
On to the scene of disaster,
But onward to God.
Forget not, how they pierced His
side,
How His feet with nails were
torn,
: raving mob not sat-
How the raving mob not satisfied
Crowned Him with many a thorn.
So, we that follow tht loved Galilear
Must walk Ger the sorrow stream
W. must endure humiliation,
We must love, watch and pray
The Master bore it all bravely,
Twas finish just for me,
So Master if | perish,
| will Dairy a cross for The.

 CASE DELAYED

Continued from Page D therefore could not comment. Judge Dickenson undoubtedly will decide Attorney Bronson eXpalined that the amendment was not filed before the hearing last Thursday, because the argument did not reach its fin- ality until the budget was passed that very evening.
 Rowland Demands
 Controller Elect Rowland appear ed at the meeting of the board of finance on Thursday and demanded that he be provided an appropria- ton of $6,000 for the auditing of the controllers books. No action was taken.
 Again, MT. Rowland read his de- inand at the meeting of the board of aldermen on Thursday evening, and again no action was taken. At the same meeting, an opinion by Corporation Counsel O'Connor was read into the minutes, reciting "that the Mayor has the priority over the controller in controlling the audit of the books"
 Feature Comes Up
 It was after this that the feature was clearly placed before us, said Attorney Bronson today.
 The arguments heard in superior court last Thursday pertained only to whether 1t was the Mayor or the Controller who had power to hire the personnel of the Controllers of- flee. Judge Dickenson reserved de- cision, ordered counsel for both sides to file briefs on the subject by today (which procedure has been followed), and promised an early decision.
