y OUR
"a TOWN y
THE BELL

have had a singular meaning
to man. Bells have been the
courier of rejoicing or
mourning and with a double
voice which can be either ju-
bilant or sad.
In our earliest childhood we
heard the old town clock
striking out the hours. We
learned to count by the old
town clock. Many is the time,
on a cold bright winters
night, when we heard the
bell toll the hour and, with
a sense of real security, we
have turned on our pillow
knowing that all was well.
On a lazy fishing day, you
can hear the bell. Or on a
picnic out in the country. Did
you ever awaken from a bad
dream to see the waning
moon on a sultry summers
night just as the old clock
strikes three? Or perhaps
you've heard the bell, sharp
and clear, on a cracking De-
cember eve when the frost
slips through the keyhole.
The bell has moods the
same as you and I. In late
July you may have heard
the almost macabre tolling of
the bell during an almost
tropical thundershower. The
lonely hear the bell and liken
1t to the heart throb of some
lost soul. In another place,
another hears the great bell
pompously pounding out the
hour and stops to mediate a
minute.
Or in the court room in
summer, the flies buzzing, can
be heard the bell as 1t shocks
all into a sudden musing.
Ever see the look of fright on
small faces when they visit
the belfry and see the big
iron hammer raise to strike?
The old town clock Is of
the past and the future. 1t
is a part of us without which
our town would never be the
same. AN iron Metfuselah
which will be ringing long
after you and cease to hear
it. Our town may see many
changes but never take away
our beloved bell!
LETTER
A letter by some small per-
son has come to our atten-
ton which we think is clas-
sical. As the result of the
current sale of stamps by the
tuberculosis Society, a note
was received together with
coin of the realm. The note
in a juvenile scrawl said
simply. MY father has
been dead since January. 1947.
/ am sending 2 cents for the
Q stamps are missing. We
are not able of taking them
and are returning the rest
of them" This small person
wins our nomination for the
biggest contributor to the
campaign.
ooolTY
Seems like we're getting
more helpless every day. la
days of yore. when we had
coal oil lamps and pumped
our own water we could face
the elements but now If even
a fuse blows out we're help
less. Nature has a way of
reminding us that we're not
such great shakes after all.

U. $. Editor Demands Investigation of Head Tass News Agency in Capitol

HAMILTON, N. Y., (P)-Alex- ander F. Jones, president of the American Society of Newspaper Editors, yesterday demanded a government investigation of the head of the Tass News Agency in Washington.
 Jones, in a talk prepared for the third annual foreign policy conference at Colgate University, charged that the Soviet govern ment had assigned Mikhail Fed orov to Washington because of his Politburo training rather than his journalistic skill.
 'Federov is not newspaper man at all," Jones said, yet "he is listed as a member of the con- gressional press corps and is en- titled to walk into the White House."
 In Washington Federov de- scribed Jones' statement as a "crazy idea" and "most irrespon- sible." Federov said Jones "has no foundation for saying I had no training. I worked in the Moscow office of Tass."
