l feel that the business people
of the town should know tina. my
order to try doors of business
places has been rescinded, on. the
flimsy excuse that the residents
would not get enough attention.
All business places can be tried,
front and back in approximately
11a hours, leaving the remainder
of the 8 hour tour of duty to po-
lice residential districts and attend
to other police business. Why was
such an order issued in the first

thousands of dollars tied up in

the past several years that he had
given little or no time to the SUI

BILE handcuffs', but in any case
you all know that it is impossible
to operate even the smallest of
businesses or ANY department
without supervision by a QUAIL

of hiring an inexperienced, or un-
qualified person to run their busi.

Suppose we were all wealthy
and all healthy. And suppose we had
10 work only one day week, and
could devote the others TO recreation
and rest. And suppose we had no wor- :
ries, no problems. no responsibilities
Would we all be happy ;. really :
happy?
OF course not For week or two
we might revel in our good fortune.
and enjoy our freedom from care. And
then suddenly life would become
colorless and empty. For where would
we find incentive2 How would we re- :
capture an1bltiono What would we
substitute for perseverance and for
titude and hope: the qualities that
crown existence with achievements,
And what would happen to FAITH
the true foundation of happiness?
In this work-a day world, with all
its turmoil and care, the man who
depends on God lives with smile in
his heart. And week after week his
shoes wear smooth the threshold Of
his Church as he rejoices in the love
Of His Saviour. He doesn't dream Of
happiness in land of make believer :
He has found happiness.

MRS. MARTHA GLOTFELTY

Several weeks ago in this column
spoke of something that has con-
cclncd me for some time. 1t was
/ the manner i'm which English
courses are being taught in our
4 schools. said at that time, that
it is my opinion that this very inn
poltant part of our educational
program is one Of our weakest
points. The following letter which
| received soon afterward from a
college teacher Of English thinks
the same. The letter speaks for it.
self
Dear Mrs. Glotfelty;
wish to send you a bit of fan
mail" concerning your two articles
in The Republican about our schools.
What you bring out there need to
be said and re-said. am not now
speaking specifically of the stu
alton in Garrett County, with
which am out Of touch; but rath-
en-, as college teacher of long
standing, Of the general situation.
In this college, for instance, we Sc
lect our students from the upper
half of their high school classes;
yet every year from forty to fifty
freshmen have to take a semester
of remedial English. with no
credit before they can he admitted
to regular freshman English.
Other departments have the same
story to tell, until we wonder what
they DO learn in school. Only re-
Gently someone spoke Of boy who
had no idea where Iowa is. could
multiply examples.
am familiar with the state
ment that since more than half of
the graduates from high school
don't 90 to college, the aim of the
schools should not be college
preparation; but it seems to me
that if the majority Of our young
people end their education with
high school Tor carlier), that is all
the more reason that there should
be given material which will en-
rich their minds and spirits, teach
them to write and speak intelli-
gently, and familiarize them with
some useful facts.
am glad for every bit Of evil
dence that people are getting
stirred up about this problem; and
wanted to tell you so.
Sincerely yours,
