Week to be Observed
County Teacherss Association
Is Sponsoring Event; Asks
Parents To Visit Schools

Members of the Garrett County
Teachers Association arc sponsoring
American Education Week from No
vcmber to IL, and during that time
all schools are asked to cooperate in
observing the event, Ernest Spocr-
lci, president, has announced.
The general theme for the week is
Education for New Tasks" and the
daily topics are: Sunday, Building

Peace Thursday, preparing for the
New Technology" Friday, Educating

Community Life"
The ensuing paragraphs were re-
leased by the Teachers Association
concerning Importance of schools and
the cooperation desired from parents:
Few parents stop to realize the i'm
portant place that the school holds
in present wartime world conditions.
The schools in Germany have pre-
pared their children to hate. Amcri-
cas- schools arc trying to prepare
their children to take their place in
democracy. They cannot do this job
without the parents support behind
them. Parents and schools must share
the responsibility. Parents should be
Just as much a part of the school as
the pupils. Why should the children
be interested, if the parents are not?
It's only through the children I'M the
schools today that a better world can
be built tomorrow. The hope of
America lies in them.
Here is challenge to all parents
in Garrett County:
During this American Education
Week visit your school, Get acQuain-
ted with your childrcns' teachers.
Find out what the problems of the
school arc. Show the school that you
arc interested in it. Lend it your sup
port, Do all that is in your power to
make it better school, That is the
hest way in which YOU can help your
children. Be in school with your child
some time the first week in November

Capper Ruling
Notes Wording
Complex Wills

In an opinion putting the courts
construction upon the last will anc
testament of the late Annabcll Resh
of this county, Chief Judge Walter
c. Cappcr warned against the dangers
and difficulties presented when wills
arc prepared by persons unfamiliar
with the law.
The jurist's remark constituted tho
conclusion of an opinion to case
in equity brought by Thomas Resi-
son and executor of the estate OF
Annabcllc Resi-, Hilary Resi-, another
son, and Carl W., Lois f. kaese
grandchildren, against Clarence Resi-
son of the testatrix, Eta NJ. Mar.
CROFT and Elsie Glover, daughters
and Claude Rcsh, Gladys NJ kacse
Mark f. Kacsc, Carl W. kacsc, and
Lois +. kacsC, grandchildren
Under Mrs. Resins will the defcn-
dants to the case were bcqucathcd
sums of $40 each. Her husband, James
Rcsh, was given nothing but the tcs-
tatriX's love and affection.
TO Thomas and Hilary RcSh, res
pcctivcly, were devised properties
known as pheasant Hill Farm" and
"Owl Hollow Farm their tenancy
subject to certain conditionns Both
sons, under the will were given tho
power of appointing one or more of
their children to live on the farms
and the will expressed the further
stipulation that the same power was
10 be conveyed to these children. The
farms were not to be disposed of
the will stipulated, until the Youngest
grandchild of each son I'D attained
his or her majority
Judge Cappers opinion upheld the
right of the testatriX to invest power
of appointment in her sons to hand
over the farms to their designated
children, but declared void and of no
effect the provision vcstiGg the same
power in the teStatriX's grandchildren
This latter provision, his opinion held
constitutes violation of the "rulc
of pCrpctutics."
In drawing up her will, Mrs, Rcsh
made no provision for the dstribu-
ton of a sum of $6,13595 produced
from her personal properties Judge
CappCr's opinion ruled that the money
should be distributed to the husband
and heirs under the Maryland statute
pertaining to distribution of personal
property, less the cgacics of $40 each
provided for some of the heirs in the
will.
Quoting source opinion, Judge
Cappcr's ruling concluded with:
willis arc hard to understand; often,
without legal advice, they arc unin-
tclligiblc and arc of doubtful con
Struction. Many tcstators fail to
make themselves UNDERSTOOD"
The plaintiffs in the case were rep
resented in the Garrett County Cir
cult Court by Ernest Ray Jones, at
torncy, and the defendants by Will
liam S. Jenkins. Cumberland, and
Walter W. Dawson, Oakland attor-
