would amount to Sl3,5SG.39 for
three months.
Out of the check received by the
County Commissioner represent
ing the : percent tax on the money
derived from the sale Of gas, the
town of Mt. Lake Park will receive
$329.19 and Loeb Lynn Heights
will receive 1882.
Three new wells were added to
the list this quarter, while two
were dropped as non-productive
Another one produced only 60 cents
worth of gas during the three
months, and probably will be
dropped this next time.
New ones showing on the list
were the Right well, the Lee well
and the Friend well. Mckee and
c. c. Mason wells were dropped
Several wells showed increases
over the previous three months,
the Joni Miller well, Mt. Lake
Motor, U. B. Church, Mt. Lake as
sociation, Dewey Rice and Riley
wells.
The Riley we'll showed the big
gest increase, reporting 81 ,913,O00
cubic feet this time as compared
to S,lGl 600 the last period. How
ever, the n. X. Welch well still is
the biggest producer, the figures
showing HATH, 900 during the 90
day period. The Riley well is next,
the Miller well third with 1885,
600, the Perrine wen fourth with
31,042,000, and the Rice well fifth
with 26,6G3,OOO.
Since the Welch well began pro-
ducing in October, 1850, the total
output there up to the first of
September totaled $40, 52G,0
cubic feet. At one time the well
produced 13,2O4,OO0 during one
month.
Payment for the twenty-one
months of gas production tax by
the Commissioners has totaled
$G3, 6422O. Out of the checks Mt.
Lake Park has received or will re-
ceive $5,328.51, while Loeb Lynn's
share will be $1,3SO.8l.

OUR.
MIND.
BY JACK NAKAMOTO

: Cynicism is a contagious disease
/ ct the soul which some of us seem
to be afflicted with today.
Naturally, cynicism has its place
especially in showing up human vi
ces. follies and hypocricies; it is
sometimes necessary antidote to
the sentimentalism and softhearted-
ness which tend to render our soci-
ETY. inefficient. A certain amount of
cynicism is also required to protect
ourselves from the sings and ar
rows of mad, competitive world.
Cynacism, however, for the sake
OF emotional outlet is destructive. A
typical cynic either makes remarks
or open criticisms and does nothing
about that which he ridicules. He
only knows the price of everything.
and the value of nothing. And the
sad part is that cynic himself
does not often realize that he is one.
and if he does, he thinks it is
smart" and sophisticated" to
speak caustically and defiantly a
gainst human nature
BY being cynical he thinks that
people will not step en- him or push
him around, thereby giving him
respect and even a certain measure
OF patronage. He may command
respect, or he may not, but one
thing is certain-he will be disliked
or even hated in time. His attitude
only reflects his feeling that all is
not well with the world where he is
concerned.
Apart from the cynicism found in
a tone or wayof speaking. there are
also some stock phrases betraying
this trait. such as ITO heck with it
-. Il don't give darn it,. {, shes
and so on
A Nisei who dates various girls
now and then found recently to his
chagrin that two of them had, as he
termed it. chips on their shoulders,
Although the Nisei girls were good
looking enough, they we're little
too case-hardened for my friend.
More than skin deep, cynicism is
bitterness that testers within our
soul, spiritual jaundice where ev-
erything takes on a color.

This year many schools were able to

and ill-eQuipped buildings and not hav-

The ultimate goal of 80 students to

by exhaustive study by colleges and uni

concerted effort of the United States
Office of Education, and by experts in
the National Education Association and
other interested groups, both lay and
professional. To give you honey ex-
ample of the effects Of a room with
more than 30 youngsters in q classroom:
teach 81 pupils for four hours day in
a school employing the extended day.
My duty is to see that each day these
youngsters receive instruction in the
basic skills such as reading, arithmetic.
spelling; that they experience the living
situations such as trips, projects, movies,
assemblies ETC., ad infinitum. All this on

six-hour day I could do much more.

Dr.. John Dewey

Dr. John Dewey was one OF the Americans
OF his time who really left his mark upon the
world. Millions of people have been Influenced
by his ideas He was the author Of the So
called progressive" conception Of education.
Even the critics of his belief that teaching
should be related directly to pragmatic consid-
erations admit the power OF his doctrine. No
other innovation in the history Of modern culture
has been more dynamic. The Dewey pattern
of school has become almost universal, despite
objections by many parents.
Back of DR.. Dewey was the scientific revo-
luton Of the Victorian age-Darwin, Huxley.
Spencer, Karl Marx and all the social changes
associated with the dogmas which they estab-
lished Thought" he declared, should aim not
merely to understand the world. but to control
and refashion It," Among those who agreed
with him were Lenin, whom he admired, and
Mussolini and Hitler, whom he hated. An
aggressive individualist himself, he wanted each
living soul to have "the utmost freedom of
initiative and curiosity" That of course would
involve a fluid condition Of society, and Dr.
Dewey was willing that 1t should be so. He
was a democrat unafraid of unlimited democracy,

What otoher recourses do private

would seem to be q Legitimate expense

certainly deductible for tax purposes!
The most amusing part Of Mr.. Tru-

the companies were using the tactics of

For Parents Ears

was quite shocked on two occasions
recently by the actions of two parents
one the mother of boy Of about 4
years, and the other, the father OF a
boy of about 10 years of age. Both OF
these parents appeared to be intelligent,
cultured, and well-to-do.
My amazement was indeed profound
when I saw that flne-looking mother
grab her sons ear and make him sit
down while she did some purchasing.
But he did sit still, and the expression
on his face showed plainly that he had
been hurt. Furthermore, not only the
ear, but the area around it, remained red
for long time.
The father of the other boy had called
the boy to dinner. But the minutes had
run on and the irate father came for
him and marched him home forcibly by
the ear. His pain was so great that his
face was pallid.
Could it be possible that these parents
were unaware Of the fact that by such
rough ear-handling their children might
become deafened for life?
My special plea Is this: Parents, please
don't pull ears! If you must inflict cor
poral punishment. please spank their
little buttockS.
