THE SIGNIFICANCE OF EASTER

Nothing is a better sign of
springtime than the Lenten season
and the coming of Easter. Some
nineteen hundred and twenty years
ago our Lord was nailed upon the
cross by Roman soldiers. Here
Christ died a mortal death on
BLACK" Friday and rose from the
dead the following Sunday-the
latter day we now celebrate as
Easter. This rising from the dead
proves that Christ is the Son of
God and that he died to redeem us
from our sins.
Many persons look forward to
Easter because it means a vaca-
ton from school and new clothes
for this season. Children look for
ward to the visits from the Easter
Bunny and Easter Egg Rolls. All
of these things are a part of the
Easter spirit, but most important
of all, is the joyous message OF
Christ. Christians all over the
world are praising God for Son
who did die for them. Since we are
supposed to be Christian nation
it is our privilege to celebrate a
happy Easter.
The staff and adviser of this pa
per extend to all best wishes fol
this vacation.

ERNA y. MARTIN

EANA Es MAI I'm
The Librarian of the Milford High
School, Erna E. Martin, is a true
rebel, this resulting, in large
measure, from the fact that she was
born and reared in true southern
fashion near Charlottesville, Vir-
ginia.
A non-believer in clubs, Miss
Martin is principally interested in
travelling, cooking, reading, and
flowers. She considers travelling
rather expensive, but earnestly be-
lieves that it gives to one a liberal
education. In fulfilling this desire
to travel she has visited England,
Western Europe, Mexico, and Eas-
tern United States.
Miss Martins path to higher ed
ucatiOn began at the University of
Virginia, then on to Peabody Grad
uate Library School, and the Uni
versity of Delaware. She has also
taken advanced study at Harvard
University, the University of Vir-
ginia, and William and Mary Col
| lege. This extensive study has
brought to her three well-earned
degrees which include a BIS in Ed
ucatiOn from the University of Vir-
ginia, a BS in Library Science
from the George Peabody Graduate
Library School, and an MA from
the University of Delaware.
In a student Miss Martin appre-
ciates courtesy and earnestness OF
purpose.
Miss Martin chose library work
as her career, First of all be-
cause of my liking for books and
then because l enjoy seeing and
knowing that others have found
books that they enjoy"
The students of Milford Higl
School hope to be bathed in the
warm charm of her southern hos
pitality for many years to come.

EDIToRIAL

During the recent outbreak of
illness, substitute teachers became
fairly common in Milford High.
Many students deserve a great deal
of credit for treating the substi-
tutes as their guests and eo-opera-
ting with them.
A minority OF the student body
overlooked the obstacles facing
any teacher who takes another's
place:
/. Little knowledge Of each stu
dents personality, interests, ability,
and his attitude toward him and
the particular subject.
2. Often little or no preparation
for the course.
8. Many times she has been CIV
en- the position on short notice,
thus given little time to prepare the
lesson.
Knowing and remembering these
hindrances, let's try to make the
Job easier for them and paint a
better picture OF onr school.

"LIFE ON OTHEk WOkLDS"
by H. Spencer Jones, +. II. s.
For the assidious reader of sci
ence, Life On Other Worlds, by
H. Spencer Jones, F. r. S., is high
ly recommended.
The book deals with the question
of whether or not there exists life
on other worlds. This factual book
vividly describes the conditions
which we may hope to encounter
on the various worlds of our solar
system. The author tells of the en-
virOnments in which we may look
forward to finding life. He believes
that there are stars that conceiv-
ably could possess a solar system
similar to ours.
The book contains excellent illus
| trations and is well-written for the
public at large. The few scientific
terms which are used are either
easily understandable or are ex-
planned by the author.

By MurieI Nissen

DEAR MISS NISSEN: A few
months ago my brother married
one of my close friends who is a
very fine girl, with a good Office
JOB and the makings of a splendid
wife. However. she is becoming
the laughingstock of her family
and friends because of a childish
demand for courtesies from her
husband. He has always been
most thoughtful and attentive in
the little courteSies such as light
ing cigarettes, opening doors. etc.
However, she goes to extremes in
expecting these attentions. She
will sit in a car for five minutes
waiting for him to open the door,
or sit with an unlighted cigarette
until some one lights it for her, al
though a cigarette lighter may be
within arms reach.
Lately, my brother seems to be
resenting her attitude to the point
where things that formerly came
naturally to him now appear to be
a nuisance. ANNA.
ANSWER: One Of the notable
paradoxeS of our age is the fact

Problems Today
Brides Unreasonable Demand
For Courtesies Irks Husband

THAT women are more and more
seeking equality with men-even
to the point of usurping age-old
masculine privileges-in so many
things. yet continue to demand
meticulous attention to details
which modern living actually
should have outmoded long ago.
While there is nothing so pleas
ant to see as a mannerly gentle
man observing the amenities of
social life, the picture changes
abruptly when an exacting wife
reduces courtesy to actual Subser-
Vance. A wife is certainly lacking
in consideration when she expects
her husband to walk across a room
to service her cigarette, when the
means of lighting it are at her
own fingertips.
However, Anna. wouldn' t
worry too much about your sister,
in-law if I were you. At the mo-
ment, she is simply glorying in the
fact that she has acquired a man
unto herself and is working the
poor boy to death as a mark of
her triumph: The fact that he is
beginning to be irked by her i'm
positions is proof that he's not the
doormat type. and friend wife will
soon come down from the clouds
and take her place in the world
lof reality.
One should never judge the be-
havior of young bride-or hus-
band-too harshly in the first
months of welded bliss. Newly
weds live in a world of their own,
and cannot be expected to con-
form to normal standards for the
first few months. at least. Your
ISiSter-in-law sounds like a nice
girl in spite of her foibles, and
you should encourage your family
to be patient with her until the
lsettling-down process sets in.
DEAR MISS NISSEN: A friend
Of mine is expecting a baby in
September. and I'd like to give
her shower. When is the best
time to do this-just before the
baby arrives, or after? What
should be served and when?
MARY.
ANSWER: The best time for a
stork shower is about six weeks to
two months before the baby is
due. I haven't the space to out
line refreshments, etc.. your pub
lie library will have books on
parties that will give. complete
information on the details for
your affair.
