COUNTY TEACHERS
START FOR HOME

With closing exercises at New

event left of the first semester pro-
gram for the 1944-45 school year.
trains and buses today were carry
ing a majority of the faculties OF
the various schools in the county
school system to their homes for
the summer vacation period. Rain
caused postponement of the closing
exercises from last night until to-
night
While number of the teachers
who have served throughout the
first semester reside in North Caro-
lima, the majority are residents Of
other states, one coming from as
far West as California.
Some thirty states of the unior
were represented on the faculties
of New Hanover County schools
during the semester just closed,
according to Superintendent OF
Education H. M. Roland, High
mark Indifferent state representa-
ton, however was in 1912, Mr..
Roland said, when a total of AZ
states had a representative on
New Hanover County school teach
err list
The war emergency also brought
small exodus of pupils from other
states who came to Wilmington
with their parents, one or both Of
whom were engaged in defense
plant work here, and as result
from both the pupil and teacher
angle, school officials were en-
abled to get pretty fair picture
of the educational standards pre-
vailing in most of the states OF the
Union, Mr.. Roland said

YMCA WILL HOLD
SPECIAL CLASSES

Applications for admittance to
the special swimming classes to
be conducted by the Y. M. C. A.,
physical education department for
under-age boys, are coming in
rather rapidly, according to a
statement made yesterday after
noon by Russell H. Caudill, boys
work secretary. Applications will
be accepted up Until such time as
the maximum number that can be
handled expiditely are received,
Mr.. Caudill said The first class Of
instruction will be held next Tues
day morning at 10 o'clock.
This special swimming class is
new departure for the Whining
ton "Y'' Mr.. Caudill pointed out,
although for years parents have
been requesting the Association to
hold classes for boys under 10 in
order that they might be taught
how to swim as early as possible
in life.
Despite these annual requests,
Y. M. C. A.. authorities were 10th
to take on this added responsibility
until few weeks ago, when the
membership committee finally
yielded to the demands of parents
and authorized special class for
small boys this summer.
Under the plan adopted, age linn
it's will be idisregarded but boys
accepted for the swimming lessons
must measure 40 inches to their
shoulders. Mr. Caudill said.
| the classes will be conducted by
Adam W.. Smith, physical director,
and a member of an international
Olympic swimming team and Mr..
Caudill, who is the author Of we'll
known text book on the subject of
swimming. Both men are known
to be highly qualified both as
swimming instructors and as life
guards. r.

A Greater Thing
BY Chaplain
Frank M. Thompson

And verse of Laplang song
Is haunting my memory still:
"A boys will is the winds will,
And the thoughts of youth are
long, long thought -
This is the month when a host
of young folk will be graduated
from school and college. They are
all aglow with life. The years lie
before them Beautiful dreams and
aspirations lure them on. Nothing
seems impossible. The deepest
seas will be explored; the highest
mountains conquered.
Alas, how often the vision splend-
id disappears as they face the
grim reality of life. AS a young
man put it before youths con-
ference: 1--WE are expected, with
a tennis education, to fit into a
baseball world Meaning, there
by, that tennis is gentleman S
game; no chickering's; no questions
are asked; you abide by the rules.
In baseball, the decision is rotten;
kill the umpire.
The observation is thoughtful.
There is much selfishness, greed,
brutality in the earth. There is
also much that is good, worth
while. All honor to those who see
the lovely; hold on to their youth
full ideals; keep their faces toward
the sun and come down to the
end of their days unembittered, un-
terrified
Great it is to believe the dream
When we stand in youth by the
starry stream;
But greater thing is to fight
life through
And say at the end, The dream
is true

Teen-age girls gain a feeling oi self-reliance when they learn how to cook simple foods. With pa- tience, modern equipment and TO. liable recipes, any mother can teach her young daughter how Go plan meals and prepare food.
 Flavored gelatin desserts, pre- pared chocolate and other flavor puddings, ready-to-use prepared cake and biscuit mixes, dehydrated soup mixes--all these are easy and produce palatdble dishes. So inc clude them in your teen-age cook ing lessons.

and walked around the car to rec appear at his side. He had ale ready slid over Into the drivers seat.
 His heart banged in his chest, For days he had wanted to drive car; now he had to, SO that in activity he could forget what that figure standing there on Drum" head Hill had reminded him of.
 Of Thayer, whom he had sent from him that morning weeks ago with the cold fury of his words. He could still remember-may- be some day he'd forget--how her face had crimsoned, then paled until her eyes were enormous. She had turned and walked away pride in every line of her.
 Two days later he had left for the hospital where he was to have further treatment and receive his leg, be instructed in It's use.
 He had stayed away longer than he need have, much longer, but at last he had come home secure in the knowledge that he appeared whole again. It seemed he could never grow tired of looking at the toes of his two shoes projecting from beneath his trouser cuffs Two shoes--two feet ..
 He had wanted to Swagger just Q little that first night of his homecoming. Thayer was over- due from the office and he stood up for IS minutes before she ar- rived so that her first sight of him might be that way. He began to grow tired with standing.
 He was momentarlly shocked to see how pale and tired she looked when she came. She said, Brock you're back V. Y" and came to- ward him as If nothing had been wrong between them. He had been cautioned against too-swift movement, now he forgot. He never knew how 1t happened, how he slipped, blundered caught him. self and crashed foolishly into a Sit- ting position in nearby chair. Thayer cried, "oh, Brock, are you hurt7" and he was right back where he had been on the night of his homecoming from duadalcanal, iri- priSoned in c chair, looking up at her. Nothing was changed. Nothing.
