AN OPEN LETTER TO SENATOR
ELECT JOHN J. WILLIAMS
Ny dear Mr.. Williams:

My dear Mr. Williams:
We extend to you our hearty
congratulations, our best wishes
and, we hope, sour continued sup
port through many successful
years in the Senate chamber of the
United States.
You have been chosen by the
people of this commonwealth to
represent them in this particular
branch of their government and
thereby you have come into the
exalted position of serving, not on
ly our state but. sharing in the
serving of fOrty-seven other states.
We naturally expect you to be
loyal to your own party as far as
it is compatible with the welfare of
the citizens of our state and the
country, but, please above all
things, do not be just politician.
No matter how clever, how keen,
how polished and refined, we do
not want a politician, the man who
is constantly maneuvering for
votes and personal benefits.
We know you will be subjected
to heavy pressure from groups and
clever individuals, but we hope
You will always be controlled by
your own good hard common
sense and moral standards that
will bear daylight investigation to-
day and tomorrow.
We know you personally, we
know some of your brothers and
sisters. Your father lived and died
in this community. We feel we
have right to expect and demand
your best efforts for all citizens
regardless of race, color or creed
If this is your position in the days
to come you may count on OuI
support and the support of every
right thinking citizen in this land
of ours.
In all the turmoil and confusion
that is bound to exist and in the
struggle for supremacy everywhere
we will do we'll to remember these
words of Abraham Lincoln. He
said, Il have had so many evi
dences of Gods direction that
cannot doubt this power come:
from above. | am satisfied tha
when the Almighty wants me to dt
or not to do any particular thing
He finds a way of letting me know.
, May this be your source of wis
dom and courage.
Very sincerely yours,
SALLIE G. HALL
Chairman of Citizenship,
Frankford New Century
Club.

COMMUNICATION
October %, 1916

OClODCl AEy 1OfO
To Boards of Education,
Boards of School Trustees,
superintendent, Principals
and Teachers:
The State Board of Education
most seriously regrets what seems
to be a growing tendency on the
part of the children in the public
schools to resort to the school
strike rather than the use of prop
er and orderly means of making
known their grievances.
Therefore, the State Board of
Education calls your attention to
the following statements of pol
icy, adopted February "a, 1888, and
confirmed by this Board on the
above date:
The State Board of Education
recognizes and respects the juris-
diction vested in local boards as
the governing bodies of local
school districts. 1t is, however, the
statutory obligation of this Board
to establish general policies affect
ing the administration of public ed
ucatiOn in this State. Without in
the least infringing upon the clear
jurisdiction of local boards, this
Body feels that the time has come
to state the policy of the State
Board of Education with respect
to interference by students with
the orderly functiOning of the pub
lie schools, through strikes, walk
outs, or illegal demonstrations.
The State Board has not been
asked to judge and is not now judg-
ing any particular issue. Accord
ingly, these remarks are not in
any sense to be considered the
findings or judgment of this Board
on the merits of any case. How
ever, we do view with concern the
attitude of the students that their
immediate whims can and should
affect the functions of the public
schools. We urge that students
through their parents, cooperate
with local boards to put an end to
such disturbing conduct. Although
local boards may give weight tC
student opinion in establishing
plans and policies, petitions, which
are to have formal consideration
should be solely by adults.
The State Board of Education
cannot admit or cOncede the righ
of pupils to interfere with the con
duct of the regular class work OF
the administration of the public
schools. The public schools of thu
state are maintained largely b!
general taxation and this boart
considers it to be it's duty to keel
them open so that any child o
proper age may attend classe
without interference or intimida
ton on the part of his fellows.
Accordingly, kindly be advise,
that this Board will exercise it
full powers in support of the or
derly administration of public edu
cation in the schools of this state
1t expects local boards of educa
tion or trustees to support with
out equivocation this policy. Thi
support is also expected from prin
cipalS and teachers, and, in tn
event that they fail to combat, O
that they foment, aid or abet, law
less activities among students, the
shall be subject to prompt dismis
sal for neglect of duty or incompe
tence, as provided by law.
Very sincerely yours,
State Board of Education

SCHOOL NEWS

The fourth and fifth grades OF
the Milford Elementary School saw
ed the Democratic party from be-
ing. completely whitewashed in the
state. The schools had been used
as a voting point and when the
children returned Wednesday they
found the tables and booths set up.
The teachers decided to take ad-
vantage of this real life situation
so ballots were fixed. the clerks,
judges. etc, were appointed and !
with all the paraphanelia necessary
to a big election, the classes voted. |
The candidates were the regular
major party candidates.
At the conclusion of the voting
the votes were duly counted and
the results announced in all the,
rooms. The Democrats were over
whelmingly victorious. Just how
the /GallOp Poll can survive this
shock remains to be seen. Perhaps
it can use this to predict a DEM
ocratic victory in 1860, or some
thing. Anyhow the Democrats owe
the fourth and fifth grades a vote
of thanks. Here was one corner
of the front which held
The Agricultural Department Of
The Milford High School
Is Slipping
A survey of conditions in the De-
/ partment of Agriculture of the
Milford High School reveals that
it is merely existing rather than
progressing. This is a deplorable
revelation when one stops to con-
slider that the demand for educa-
ton is at an all time high. The
farm youth of America needs train
ing in an ever widening field of
skills and science. The agricul-
tural department of our school is
not meeting that challenge. This
failure seems chiefly from the fact
that there is insufficient funds to
carry on the old inadequate pro-
gram to say nothing of a new and
expanded program.
The school is lacking facilities
sufficient enough to carry on the
minimum program. The shop ia
cilities are less than they were a
year ago. No tools that have worn
out have been replaced. No new
tools have been added to give
training in new skills so much
needed.
Inc pupils are unable to do any
electric welding because of a lacl
, of protective welding helmets. The
l boys are unable to cut, thread an(
tap pipe and bolts because Oul
tools are worn out. We have onl,
few sizes of drills left.
, In the agricultural classes tn,
pupils have only these materials t,
! work with that the boys can brin!
in from home or that they can so
iicit free of charge from CONNER
cial businesses. Many demOnstra
y tiOns, experiments and projects ar
{ left untouched because there All
! is being used a text book type O
= instruction that is about as poo
- method of teaching agriculture
i science as can be devised. The tex
l. books beifg used are of the 1872
y vintage. Conditions are discoul
y y aging to the pupils, the teachin
= staff and to progress.
