OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
TO AN OLD cANDLE-LAMP
1t was half hidden in the water
weeds
Amid the ruins of some cab
in home;
Lovely with age, as things which
serve our needs
Are like, bneath Times fin
gering, to become.
Even the child who found and
brought in,
Sensed something of the
grace, sedate and true,
Wrought by the carful potter,
who had been
Purveyor of what light that
cabin knew.
How long ago it sent its mellow
CLEAN
Across the room, or what it
shone upon,
We could but guess; renewing the
hewn beam,
The simple furnishing, the
work half done
And for the moment laid aside,
while hands
Rested a little; and baby
slept
Unconscious of the challenging
demands
Whose cloud already DER his
cradle crept.
Then, by the yellow ray, the
father read
Some ancient story from an
hallowed page,
STOPPING toward the light his
noble head,
Deciphering calmly words of
royal rage
David's, perhaps, or Saul's-it
mattered not
Cause or effect; the phrases
were divine,
Reverently accepted, every 1.-THE
and jot
Laying down Cody precepts,
line by line.
There was a hymn; then in the
quiet room
The meek petitionings of
honest prayer,
While tender shadows in the
kindly gloom
Moved like holy benedic-
ton there.
Then, the lamps glimmer ming
ling with the stars,
The light without melting to
light within,
Marked the faint outline of the
window-bars,
Shutting all danger out, all
SoAGIy 4i'
Though long ago the cabin fell
to dust,
And lost in dust the ancient
potter's wheel,
Yet who looks upon their relic
must
Some stirring of their valiant
virtue feel
The flame there lighted guides
the spirit still,
To higher aim and purer mo-
tive turned,
Because upon that humble home
stead's sill,
Serene with faith, that gal
liant lamp-light burned.

Plight Of jews

aEAI Ux Jews
We are sorry to note the troubl
which the Jews Of Europe are hay
ing, particularly those in Germany.
and now in Italy.
For some time we have noted 5
tendency in this country to discuss
the relative position and relation
ship OF Jews and Negroes 1t now
appears that some Negro leaders
feel that Jews are not as sympa--
thetic and helpful toward the Negro
group as they might be. Jews, espe--
cially in the merchandising field.
where they are very powerful. are
charged with not giving Negroes
enough economic opportunity.
While there is much truth in this
assertion, it must be remembered
that Jews in America are influenced
IN their attitude toward Negroes BY
the mores of the dominant group,
which IS the white American group.
jews might be sympathetic, but be-
ing classed as white, they dare not
show too much friendliness for fear
count.
Of course this places the Ameri-
can jew In an almost untenable
position. On the one hand he wants
the sympathy and tolerance of The
Negro, for the jew himself is L
minority group which faces certain
prosecutions and petty meannesses.
in spite of his white skin; and on
the other hand he must hold himself
aloof from, and even is tempted to
practice prejudices against, and to
thoroughly exploit, commercially,
the Negro, because the Jewish upper
class is accepted by upper class
Americans (mairlly for financial
reasons).
Negroes who feel the pain Of
Jewish economic Indifference are
prone to gleefully sanction Jewish
persecution in distant lands. Our
view is that it is never right to sane
ton persecution, no matter against
whom it is practiced. Our differences
with Jews here, we think, may be
amicably settled without condoning
either Hitler or Mussolini's intoler-
ance.

Father Divine bought an estate at

the river from the ancestral home
Of the Chief Executive, were sadly
disappointed when the ever cheerful
Leader announced, with colored
boy among his guests, that he was
sure the people across the river in

vineites, would continue to be good
neighbors to the people of his
county.
In many sections of the country,
North and South, Negroes are
boldly run out when they move near

Policy Racket

the policy "numbers") racket, not
to mention the potentialities for
cash, which makes it, if not entirely
acceptable, at least not vigorously
condemned by some of the so called

lty. While we have always thought

pletely stamped out. But with the
sensational expose Of the rackets Of
New York, it is revealed that some
people deliberately go in for orr
ganized crime and vice because of
its possible large and quick reA
wards, and the few who manage to
traffic successfully in the degrada-
tion Of others are even lauded Us
being smart and clever"
Some people feel it is no more
a disgrace to play the rackets than
go on relief and since many respec-
table people have found it necessary
to go on relief, il others can stay
off by playing the raelsets, they are
justified. This IS question that
can be answered or decided only by
the moral training Of the individual.
1t is hoped, however, that the
teachers Of morals will redouble
their efforts rather than slacken
their pace, in spite of the alluring
examples contrary to their teach !

The injured man was in an uncon-

a group of boys. 1t is not known how
long he lay there. He was taken to the
office of Dr. Baumgartner and later
to the home of his daughter, Mrs. Jos.

THE REPUBLICAN BEGINS
ITS SIXTY SECOND YEAR
TOday's Issue Marks Start On
Another Milestone of History

With today's issue, The Republican
enters upon its sixty-second year. The
paper was founded on February %,
1877, the first number appearing the
following Saturday, March 4, 1877.
Down through the years, several
extra Thursdays have slipped into the
calendars and the volume just closing
really had SIS papers. This was done
purposely just so the sixty-second
year could start again on the date
nearest the date upon which the first
paper was published.
At the time of the founding of The
Republican by the late Capt. James
A. Hayden, of Mountain Lake Park,
there was also being published the
Garrett County Herald, with Hiram
P. Tasker, editor, but it ceased pub
LEGATION sometime afterward. The
Herald was a Democratic organ and
was succeeded later by the present
Democratic publication.
The Republican is not only the old
est newspaper in Garrett county but
is likewise the earliest established
business enterprise in the county that
has gone on through the years unin-
terruptedly. The paper has had but
two owners since it was established,
the founder and the present publisher.
Capt. Hayden was its editor until
July A, 1890, when the present pub
Usher took charge. He published his
first paper upon his 21st birthday
anniversary which occurred on July
II, of that year. He will have rounded
out AZ years of continuous service by
July of this year.
Six persons are kept busy in the
office and printing plant in the publ
cation of the paper and varied
branches of printing operations. The
office equipment, with two linotypes,
Kelly automotic job press in ad-
dition to the regular newspaper and
other job presses, is the best and most
up-to-date in this section of the
country.
The subscription list of The Repub-
lican, conceded to be Garrett County
leading newspaper, is approximately
500 more than any other newspaper
published in this county and is stead
lily gaining new patrons.
