Don't Take
Him Back

You should not have taken
him back. That seems to be Q
harsh statement. But a decent
woman owes it to herself not to
mix into sordid, low affairs. II
your husband had fallen from
grace and been unfaithful be-
cause of a temporary emotional
spree, I would say, take him
back. But your husband has
no honor and enjoys wallowing
in sordid sex affairs.
They Are
Inferior
In your purity of mind you
failed to notice the type of man
he was. The very fact he made
the statement he did when you
had the operation showed his
caliber. He is the type OF man
that thinks women were made
for the pleasure of men not to
be mates and companions. Such
men never honor womanhood.
You have your children, start
all over, put your husband out
of your mind. You are not in
love with him but with an ideal
and that ideal really never ex-
listed. except in your own mind.
Don't fool yourself by trying
to interpret his return to you
as love or any feeling for you.
He came back because his self
ishness made him realize that
because you loved him so much.
you would do all in your power
to make life pleasant for him.
So he said the things you
wanted to hear, that he loved
you" alone. But they were
empty words, a bait to make
you do his will.

SCIENTIFIC ROADS PREVENT
ACCIDENTS

The road builder has the largest
share in the job Of making the ma
tons motor traffic safe, said Harold
Hammond, of the National Conser-
walton Bureau in a recent address.
He pointed out that in the golden
era of road building that followed
1925, the highways that emerged
were regarded as masterpieces Of the
builders art and science. Disillusion
came fast. No sooner had the pave
ment hardened, than these roads be-
came scenes of death and destruc-
ton on an unprecedented scale, and
of maddening congestion as traffic
density grew and movement slowed.
The modren, safe road is very diff
ferent from the old highways. Mr..
Hammond defines it in these words:
More roads mean more arteries on
which to move people and goods
efficiently Better roads means roads
that will perform this basic job of
transportation with less waste and
less hazard than anything we have
known in the past. In the language
of the man in the street, we want
reads that will give mora mileage
for our money, in terms of operating
and maintenance cost. and we want
roads that to the greatest possible
degree will discount or eliminate the
human factor as a cause of acct
dents"
Such roads have been built-and
they work. They make it impossible
for the driver to get out of his
proper lane; there is no cross traffic;
intersections are eliminated. Cars
moving in opposed directions cannot
meet. Here, in better roads, is the
indispensable step toward the logic
al solution of the traffic accident
problem.

Basketball Results

Our boys basketball team finally
won a game, beating the West Not
tingham Jr. VS., 1917, but they re-
main without victory in league
competition. Following that close
victory over West Nottingham. they
dropped another we'll played practice
game to Tome, 1913. On that day,
Tones girls smothered ours. Our
boys later added another practice
victory to their won column.
In regular league competition,
North East leads both girls and boys,
without a defeat. Perryville's boys
are in second. They have no girls
team. In last comes the Sun, our
boys having lost twice to Perryville
and once to North East, while our
girls have lost the one game they
played, to North East.

The French Course

This is the first of a series Of
articles to inform our readers Of the
different courses given in our high
school. These articles will try to
point out the value Of the different
subjects to the students in their
later life, etc.
French, people might say, is per-
haps the least beneficial subject
taught in our high schools today,
but French also has uses.
First of all, two years of modern
foreign language is required before
one can enter almost any good
College.
Then too, we all meet with French
in our reading. You often read books
in which the main characters make
remarks in French. If you have an
understanding of French, you are
able to translate these and get q
great deal more out of your reading.
Rising Sun High School gives a
two year French Course, taught by
Miss Nutter. Naturally French can
neither be taught nor learned in q
day, but after these two years fair
knowledge of French should be OBJ
tanned. However, If any student de-
sires to learn more of French and
how to speak it more fuently, he
can take up further course on this
subject in college.-Gen. Gibson.

Hans Helmes, German enter
tainer, gave us an enjoyable half
hour in one Of the few paid assem-
bliese of the year. This graduate Of
Columbia University was, through
years of patient practicing, able to
initiate violin and a trumpet with
his voice in songs such as would be
played with these instruments. Not
only that, he demonstrated his ability
to pitch his voice to every note on
the piano-high or low, and even
to pitch between the notes! He has
range, volume, and precision in his
voice.
Many of his feats seemed impos-
sible. He had been told that many
were impossible when he asked the
advice of music teachers. But never
theless he kept ON. He remembered
what Napoleon Bonaparte had said
Nothing is impossible" and he
went ON to his present heights, pay
ing his way through college through
the advancement Of this hobby.
There is a lesson for all Of us In
