People Should Cross
Street At Corners

Crossing streets at intersections,
one of the most important safe walk
ing rules, will be the subject en-
phasized in Maryland schools this
month, as suggested to teachers by
the Automobile Club of Maryland.
In making the announcement To-

children why they should cross
streets only at corners.

the Gross Only At Corners" cam
paign, is one of the ten first-prize
winners in the 9Th National Safety
Poster Contest, conducted by the
AAA and affiliated Automobile

In the December issue of THE
Maryland Teacher" official publiea-
ton of the Maryland State Teach
ers Association, the newly elected
president Harry r. Poole, principal
of the Smithsburg High School, pre-
scented his first annual message TO
the members of the association,
which reads as follows:
Maryland teachers, ours is a
great professionl Perhaps the great
est, for without it, other professions
would not exist. Furthermore, in
size, we can boast that more people
belong to our profession than to all
the others combined.
Surely, tomorrow is entrusted to
us. We must assume the tremendous
accompanying responsibility, for our
destiny depends upon the type of
citizen who emerges from our school
systems. The ingenuity of man has
made the world small place 1t
is, therefore, imperative that the
citizens of all nations understand
one another if they are to survive.
Such an understanding must be
taught in classrooms in every part
of the world 1t must emanate from
the minds and hearts of educators
if it is to be shared by pupils.
To-day, throughout the world,
leadership is mandatory. Every
teacher and school administrator &C.
cupies a position of definite leader
ship. BY failing to lead, the teacher
The globe-independent. (Hagerstown, Md.) 1943-19??, 1950-12-14

forsakes sacred trust placed in
him, for nation rises no higher
than its leaders. Leadership pre-
sents its share of obstacles, but with
determination they can be over
come.
Accept the challenged AS the flu
ture Of the world depends upon its
educators so the future of this state
depends upon its teachers. Let us
be imbued with the faith placed in
us by the citizens of our state"

presidents committee appointments

uprooted trees from being hauled

Here is real human interest
story if l ever heard of one:
"Skippy" Byron, son of Major
General and Mrs Joseph W. Bryon,
who enlisted in the Army Air Force
and is now an instructor at Lack
land Air Force Base, San Antonio,
Texas, in a recent letter to his
father, gave him the good news that
he had received his first promotion,
to Private First Glass.
In giving the information Skippy
wrote: ITS a long haul from
one stripe (Pfc.) to two stars (Maj
GEM, but | am on my wayl"
When a boy gets promoted from
Private to Private First Glass, and
Immediately visions himself on the
road to the rank his father holds,
you begin to realize that it is young
men like Skippy Bryon that have
made, and will continue to make,
this country great.
Congratulations to the local I'm
ions of the CLIO. for the fine job
they are doing in helping under
privileged children.
Last Christmas this group gave a
very fine Christmas party for all the
underprivileged children, not only
of Hagerstown and Washington
County, but also groups in nearby
counties in Pennsylvania, and else
where on this page you will find the
story regarding a similar Christmas
party, which they are going to stage
again this year.
While it is true that there are or
CARNATIONS, operating through the
Community Chest, that provide for
underprivileged youngsters, they do
not have the funds for extra curric-
ular activities, such as Halloween
and Christmas parties, and it is fine
thing to see these Union groups dig
ging down into their pockets to bring
little joy into the lives of these
kids from time to time.
