BY Ellen Haged0rn

You'd think it would be SIM
pie to write something appro-
pirate for Mothers Day! But
so very many beautiful and
inspiring words and songs have
been written, that l feel quite
incompetent to cope with the
situation.
Years ago l read and copied
into a scrapbook a poem by
William S. Adkins called, "Just
try to be the fellow that your
mother thinks you are"
In it, small street urchin
wistfully tells of his mothers
belief that he is wonder and
that nothing mean or ugly can
touch him.
Each busy day we adults
brush shoulders with pettiness,
indecision, temptations. Per-
haps we ride rougshod over
the other fellow in our desire
to get ahead. So many pitfallsl
The verse ends with these
homely lines:
Don't aim to be an earthly
saint
With eyes fixed on a star.
Just try to be the fellow
That your mother thinks you
are"

engineering degree from Virginia
Polytechnic Institute and in 1887
went with the Pc System as a sub
station and hydro plant operator at

From that time until his present
promotion, the $10,000,000 plants
new superintendent has worked in
PES power plants at Cumberland
and Williamsport, as clerk, operator,
load dispatcher, engineer and in
other capacities.
During the war McVay entered
the Army Engineers Corps as Lieut.
enant and rose to a 1t. Colonel by
the time the war was over. He made
a brilliant record in the service both
as an officer on the Alaskan (Alcan)
Highway project, and also in Europe,
where he commanded heavy bridge

was presented to the voters of Hag-
erstown for their approval or disap-
proval, and although the members
of the Commission were so per cent
Democrats and so per cent Repub-
licans, at no time did politics play
any part in their discussions.
Having arrived at a tentative new
charter, the members of the Com
mission, cognizant of the fact that
the press-both Republican and
Democrat after feeling the pulse
of the public, had stated editorially
that they did not believe that any
Charter, carrying SO many vital
changes in our present form of city
government as were proposed in the
tentative new charter would be
approved by the voters, decided to
call in the representative of the
press and radio for round-table
discussion.
AT the conference, the various con-
troversail proposed changes were
frankly and freely discussed and, as
a result, the members of the Com
mission voted unanimously to have
the Charter rewritten, leaving out
all the controversial changes that
were proposed, with the thought in
mind that these proposed changes
might be voted on later on, one by
one
When the revised, proposed new
charter is written, the Charter Com
mission will meet again to discuss il
further and will probably vote to
present it to the voters of Hagers-
town at the City Election in March
l949.
