The School and Citizen

No matter how exalted or hum
BILE a person may be, there is one
sacred duty which he owes to hui
mainly and which it is imperative
ly incumbent upon him to pay.
That duty is the protection and
fostering of our public school sys-
tenn.
We are living in an age of edu-
cation and advancing intellectual
development, and the human mind
that is deprived of the best ad-
vantages obtainable, will be ham
pered and hindered at every step
in life.
1t matters not how bright nor
how acute the infantile mind may
be, if that mind is denied the adj
vantages of education then the
child grown to maturity will be
retarded and Inundated because
of its intellectual deficiencies. It
will be a living monument to the
neglect and the indifference of its
parents. 1t will be a mark of
shame and a blight upon the com
munity that reared it in it's ig-
norance. 1t will be an object of
pity where it should be one of
pride.
Education and the advantages
of intellectual advancement have
made America a great country.
And America is even yet in its in
fancy.
Our school system should be
encouraged and raised to the high
est point of efficiency. The in
Nstructors should be upheld and
given to understand that they
have the backing of a united com
rlunity, and that the community
expects satisfactory results.
We have brought these children
into the world, and in their in.
fancy and youth they are helpless
It is our duty to give them an edu.
cation that will enable them to
successfully cope with the intri
cate problems of existence that
will confront them later in life
To do less would be to neglect a
sacred duty, to shame the innocent
ones for whose very existence
we are responsible.
Let us keep our schools and
our children in mind. Let uf
leave no stone unturned that viii

to Mrs. Elder
She parted questions by Dis
trict Attorney Davis L. Keedy re-
garding alleged trips to Boston
with Elder, dinners and theater
visits, with the statement:
II don't remember whether I
did or not"
The alleged kissing incident was
the basis for rumored ill-feeling
between Elder and Norton, accord
ing to previous testimony.
Miss Dill was on the stand only
is minutes. Direct testimony was
under the guidance of Defense
Attorney Charles r. FairhurSt.
Q.-Is it true that Dean Elder
kissed you in your office. A.-No.
Q.-Is it true that Dean Elder
chucked you under the chin in
your office? Ale did not.
O.-Is it true that Dean Elder
ever embraced you in your office?
A.-No.
Q.-At some time did Mr..
S. Alan Norton speak to you about
something he claimed had hap
pened in your office? Ayes, he
did. He said to me I am sorry ]
made an untrue accusation and
let's forget it,
Denies Seeing Peep-HOle
She denied seeing a peep-hole
through the wall in her office
which Norton made, until long
after the "kiss-and-tell" incident.
Miss Dill said she came to Mt.
Hermon School in 1929 and was
secretary to Elder for only one
year, later becoming registrar and
serving in that capacity in 1885
when she resigned.
Under croSs-examination she ad-
mitted she had seen Elder at
Greenfield and Brattleboro, VT,
and at dinner merely discussed
matters of business with him."
Testimony designed to show
that Elder was i'll in Vermont on
May IS, the day he allegedly
accoSted Norton with a shotgun
at the latter's garage here was
given by Houghton SevernS. of
Brattleboro, VT.
SevernS said Elder attended a
meeting of the Holstein-Friesian
Association and Seemed pretty
well used up, as he slumped in
his chair"
Elder Tells Story
Then Elder himself took the
witness stand in his own de-
tense.
Elder first told of his connec-
lions with the school, and Of his
business associations with Nor
ton, 66, who was cashier, under
questioning by Defense Counsel
charles R. Fairhurst, who asked:
did you have a secretary"
With broad grin, Elder re
piled:

tarieS and one Of them was
Miss Evelyn Dill"
At this point the noon recess
was taken.

HOUSE TO PASS
REORGAN|zING
BILL TODAY


The first bill in response to
President Roosevelt's plea for re-
organization Of the Federal Gov
ernment-a measure granting the
President six executive assistants
was slated for House assage to-
day.
Representative Cochran I'D of
Missouri, chairman Of the special
House reorganization committee,
predicted that the measure would
be approved by an overwhelming
vote. Republicans planned to OPP
pose it, with SOM party spokes-
men heaping ridicule rather than
criticism on the measure.
Bankhead For Bill
The measure is designed to give
the President six competent as
sistants, whose salaries would be
$4,000 a year, to help him keep
in close touch with the many ac'
tivities of the Government.
Speaker Bankhead declared that
the measure should have been
passed 20 years ago." to aid Presi-
dents in their enormous task.
Cochran maintained that the meas
ure was essential to proper admin
istration Of the huge Government
machine.
Taber Leads Attack
Representative Taber Of New
York was to lead the Republican
attack on the bill as an unneces-
sary expense to the Government.
He said:
under the Constitution the
Cabinet is supposed to advise
the President and inform him Of
conditions in their departments.
This sets up q buffer between
the President and the Cabinet.
Imagine the ridiculous situation
of q Cabinet officer raising a
question in q Cabinet meeting,
only to have the President tell
him to take it up with Mr.. A."
