DUNHAM SPEAKS
 AT JUNIOR C. OF c.
Life Is Like Game, Princi- pal Tells Club, to Play
 According to Ability
COLOR KALEIDOSCOPE

A. s. Durham, principal of Jul neau High School, addressed the Junior Chamber of Commerce at the regular Friday luncheon in the grade school.
 We must have objectives to aim for in our work said Mir Dunhan. We perhaps wouldn't do anything unless we really had to. If there isn't an inner drive in the individ- ual there must be drive from some outside force"
 Another point of the speaker was that the student makes his own record. If the student is in the habit of being prepared, he builds a reputation that gains the last ing confidence of the teacher Only the student himself can build that record, said MT. Durham.
 Life is like game, was the third and concluding point. You must play the game according to your ability, he advised his audience. ''The boy that we are all proud of is the fellow who works hard in spite of his lack of ability. The fellow who is in complete disgrace is the fellow who doesn't play the game up to capacity"

THE PRESS CoUNsELs AHERrC,

The May issue of the Industrial
News Review contains a number OF
brief excerpts from editorials COM
menting on the Supreme Court
packing proposal, taken from news
papers, largely country weeklies,
throughout the United States.
In making up this compendium of
editorial opinion on an issue that
has justly been described as the
most vital faced by the American
people since the Civil War. the staff
of the Industrial News Review ex-
amined thousands of newspapers. 1t
was found that the press was. over
whelmingly opposed to the plan, on
grounds of principle, not partisan
ship.
Most heartening of all, the quail
ity of the comment shows that the
editors of smaller papers with cir
culations from a few, hundred to
several thousand, have studied and
deliberated the issue as deeply and
periodically as the editors of great
dailies.
The editors of America are stepped
in the American tradition. And they
see the Supreme Court proposal as
a measure that can easily lead to
dictatorship. They realize that if
one President can pack n court for
liberal ends, another President could
pack it again for reactionary ends. !
They know that this tool of power
could be used to abrogate freedom
of speech, freedom of the press. free !
dom of assembly and all other civil !
liberties-by placing in the highest !
judicial positions controlled judges !
who could evade the spirit Of the |
Constitution by Interpretation that !
would be completely alien TO the
ideals and intentions OF its great !
authors.
The press of America is counsel
ing the people to consider basic !
principles underlying the unequaled
personal liberties given to Ameri-
can citizens $50 years ago. and to
not be misled by programs which
do not let the people vote on meas
ures that might destroy those liber-
ties and substitute dictatorship for
free government.

BRAND NEW MOTHERS,


Today means more to you, I'm sure,
In oh, so many ways ...-
Although you've celebrated lots,
And lots of Mothers days.
In years gone by, you sent nice gifts
and fowers-here and there.
To your own mothers-and to those
OF friends, for whom you care.
But since last Mothers day, a sweet
Someone has come to you;
And, with it, love-and hope-which
seem
To start your life anew.
May joys of Mothers day increase
Each year surpass all others!
May all your hopes be realized!
God bless you-brand new mothers!

SalmOns Reunion At

vel Hill, held their eleventh annual
reunion at this shrine of Methodism

ords which have been kept and still
are in existence. The church, how

as 1860, for it is said that Bishops
Asbury and Coke. in some Of their
writings, made mention OF visiting
the congregation. This would make
is 81 years older han existing rec
ords show.
Adjoining the church for more
than a century was located the ia
nous Zoar camp grounds, which for
ten days each summer served as a
vacation spot .or rural folks of that
section. The camp was abandoned in
1919. The Salmons family are said
to have been very active ut this fa-
nous camp half century ago.
