Patrons in the Cearfoss vicinity
have not yet become reconciled to
having their school closed and hav-
ing their children transported to the
Maugansville school, mainly be-
cause of the inconvenience of the
transportation system.
The bus which hauls the children
arrives at the homes of the first to
be picked up, about Tbs a. m. Then,
because the same bus carries both
the pupils from the closed Western
Reserve School, as well as the Gear
floss children, it is overcrowded and
many who get on at the last stop,
which is Cearfoss, have to stand all
the way to Maugansville.
In addition to this, both the ele-
mentary and high school pupils ar
rive at their respective schools soon
after o'clock, but most of them are
not allowed in the school libraries,
or their class rooms, to do any study
ing while waiting for the schools to
open for classes.
Then again, the children who be-
gin their school day at Tbs a. M,
arrive home about 5, or 5:15 q. M,
which means that the transportation
has wasted three hours, or more, of
their time-time that the little ones
should be using for rest particular
ly in the mornings) and the older
ones for helping their parents with
home chores.
Many may support the theory that
centralized education affords better
educational facilities and advantages,
but the one-room school at Western
Reserve and the two-room school at
Cearfoss have both contributed Hon
or Roll graduates to Hagerstown
High School

Did you know that roast can be
made from a few frankfurters and
that it can taste as good and look
as luscious as a prewar steak? Or,
if the sugar bowl is bare, syrup
can sweeten the cake and syrup can

peaks?

Navy Cutback Frees
Steel 10 Fill Other
Big War Orders
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
CLEVELAND, April "A cutback
in the new Navy program from "a
to IL combat ships is causing heavy
steel order cancellations, the maga-
zine Steel said today.
Cause OF the decision to elimi-
nate SO many ships is said to be that
naval losses have been much lower
than had been expected, y Steel re-
ported.
The publication said that at the
suggestion of the Navy, the Mari
time Commission may cancel orders
for 40 tankers, requiring about $500
tons Of steel each.
A statement by Navy Secretary
James Forrestal, said Steel, disclosed
that the action was taken at the re-
quest of James F. Byrnes, director
Of mobilization and reconversion.
Mr.. Byrnes felt it would not be
wise to build the ships now In view
Of the manpower and critical ma
terials required, reported the maga-
zine.
Despite removal Of this large
tonnage the War Production Board
has not slackened its pressure for
steel, in spite Of indications that
the European phase Of the war may
be near its end" said Steel.
Special efforts are being made
to screen second-quarter require
ments closely and some allotments
are being cut further to make room
for more important work"

Sharply in First Quarter
Ry the Associated Press.

BALTIMORE, April 2.-Southern
construction awards during the first
quarter of 1945 amounted to $780,
689, ,00O-57 per cent above the flg-
ure for the first three months OF
last year, the manufacturers rec
ord reported.
The March total of sos 1923 600
although below the preceding
months aggregate, was 81 per cent
more than that for the correspond
ing 1914 period.
Primary factors in the increase
the record said, were the larger
valuations placed on industrial
projects, public building and road
construction.
March highway awards were al
most four times as large as the
value of such contracts in the pre-
ceding month. Among the i'm
portant contributors to the higher
total were Louisiana's $488, 900
Marylands $336,O00 and Okla
homa's $328,000. Awards in Arkan-
sas, the District of Columbia and
Florida were above the 5000, 900 level
