Manners
of the
Moment

IF YOUR boy friend is the kind who
likes to do some of his heavy read
ing in the book stores. may you be
blessed with patience. For you'll SIM
ply have to learn to relax and wait.
He will always have to finish chap
ters In books he doesn't want to buy.
You'd probably better start reading
something yourself-a best seller that
you'll find in every book store.
Another thing you must learn is to
control your bushes when the pro-
prietor eases you out. Remind your
self that your boy friend is q very
discerning purchaser of books {.
that he is not the kind to buy trash
that if he has to read through
couple books before he can decide
he doesn't want them, it's a sign of
intelligence. Then if you feel indig-
nation arising in you, it will be
turned upon the proprietor instead of
your boy friend. Which is, as you can
see, far, far better
Whatever you do, don't try to kill
the browsing spirit in the lad It's
much pleasanter to have around most
of the time than lot of other manly

A ATeacher'S
Ideals Will
S urV / V e
For a Generation of
Men Will Carry the
Indelible Mark.
BY ANGELO PATRI.

By ANGELO PATRI.
THE teacher in our schools is deli
cately placed. On one hand he
is a public servant responsible to pub
lie authorities for his work. His
courses Of study are prescribed, the
amount Of work to be done is meas
ured out, the very conditions under
which he must give his lessons are
ordered by authority He is rated and
paid, engaged and dismissed by. the
will Of those in authority. And yet,
he is free as air in his class room.
Free because teaching is a communi-
cation Of the spirit.
The teacher can teach precisely
what is demanded according to the
law and yet be creative, original, free
in the teaching. There never has
been discovered law or a jail strong
enough to bind or to hold the spirit
when it wills to be free. Teachers are
then, in the end, personally RESPONSE
bic for the effect of their teaching.
1t is the gravest responsibility that
can rest upon human being, for
it entails the quality Of the spirit
of the next generation. What is the
teachers duty, then, to this coming
generation?
None of us is all-wise. None knows
what the future holds for us in the
near tomorrow, much less the distant
years. Some few principles we can
feel safe about, and can teach with
faith. Some sort Of ideal each of
us can cherish with some certainty
of belief and sincerity. I believe the
teachers first duty is loyalty to an
ideal. Not loyalty to persons, but
loyalty to an ideal. I think that the
real teachers ideal is the formation
of character that will enable the next
| generation to 60 forward with power,
strong in the faith of the righteous
ness Of whatever cause is theirs.
We do not know what their cause
will be, but we know they will have
one. We know that unless they are
fired by faith in that cause it and
they must come to naught. It be-
comes our first duty then to inspire
the children with faith in rightness,
faith in the success of their ideals. It
is fashionable in some places today to
scorn the simplicity of those who be-
lieve in the ultimate triumph of right
Yet right will triumph. It must be-
cause it is right and the law of the
universe is rightness.
| 1t makes little difference what the
course we teach. It makes all the
difference in the world how we teach
it, how we approach it. It makes little
difference how much ground we cover,
but 1t makes all the difference in life
when the quality Of the spirit we put
into the covering is tested. How sin
cere is it? How loving is it? How
high the standard it sets?
Each day spent under the influence
Of teacher ought to see the children
a little finer, bit more earnest, a de-
gree more idealistic than they were
before. Each day should find the
teacher little more selfless, a little
closer to the infinite power that con-
trolls all life and growth. 1t is the
teachers chief duty to maintain these
ideals Of service, for his own sake,
and for the sake Of the generation Of
men upon whom they are setting
their indelible mark. Come what may,
the teacher is free spirit and per-
sonally responsible for his 6aWn works.

There's vast difference between the
stuffed duck sitting on piece of

toy. He's alive! People shouldn't give
children living presents unless they're
prepared to take care of said creatures

about the fact that one can raise

be raised off the ground. Wire mesh

protection from rain. Bunny must

- 81 years of age, and I feel
that I could be happier for five or
six years if I stayed single. Is it
true that after one is married romance
fades and that boy and girl are no
longer sweethearts? l realize that
sharing happiness as well as sorrow
with the one you love is a beautiful
thought, but can a dream like that
be made into a reality? Is marriage
worth while? E. A. S.
Answer-Certainly marriage is worth
while or the seeking of mate would
not be the primal instinct of the
human heart. Millions upon millions
of people cannot have been wrong
throughout the ages.
You may say that not all marriages
are happy, that many marriages are
failures and bring only disappoint-
ment and misery to those who enter
into them, but so do many people
make failures in everything else they
attempt. There are no sure things
in life, and the rewards of happy
marriage are so great that they make
it worth the risk.
Indeed, even an unhappy marriage
has its compensations, or else the
divorced would not be rushing back
into it before the ink on their de-
crees absolute is dry, as we see them
continually doing The greatest guar
antee that marriage is worth while
is that even poor, hen-pecked down.
trodden husbands when freed from
the matrimonial yoke that has CALLED

punishment instead of cherishing their

program in the National City
Baseball League tomorrow will be
the Heurich-Dixi Pig contest on
the South Ellipse. Action starts
at 3 p. m.
The Brewers are tied for first
place with Rose Liquor in Section
A of the unlimited division with
two victories and no defeats.
In an effort to bump Heurich
off the top ladder, the Pigs are
sending Claude Bailey, who has
shown a great assortment of stuff
in recent games, to the hill. The
Brewers will probably use Randy
Heflin, imported Fredericksburg
High School twirler, or Walter
James, veteran right handler.

Rose Liquor faces an inspired
Union Printers team on the East
EllipSe at the same hour. The
Printers are bubbling over with
enthusiasm these days. They
have been drilling diligently for
the annual Union Printers tourna-
ment, which takes place in this
city at Griffith Stadium starting

Charlie Booker, the under
handed artist, will undoubtedly
pitch for the Liquor clan, while
either Ben Schneider or Lefty"
Bean will oppose him.

Section B of the unlimited class,
with three wins and no losses.

The Pharmacy team has a much
easier opponent to tackle tomor-

cages White Haven, which has not
been going so hot in the second
