"Our
Growing Edge"
MRS. MARTHA GLOTFELTY
The Public School

The public school is the peoples
school, and responds to their will.
More than any other American
institution, it has been shaped by
the tireless efforts Of the people.
The public school represents the
aspiration of parents for the future
Of their children, and of all citi-
zens for the welfare of their coun-
try.
The free public school is am in
tegral part Of the structure of
popular government. 1t is essential
to the preservation of our freedom
as a people The public school be-
gan as one of the first ideals of a
free world 1t continues as the bull
wark Of a free society.
The public school is a local insti-
tuition. 1t began as an extension of
the home. 1t was the purpose of
its founders to keep home and
school close together 1t is a vital
center of community life.
It's doors are open to all chill
dren, regardless Of wealth, birth or
social background. 1t is the unity
ing force in America. 1t helps to
make our people one No other
institution touches the life of every
citizen. The public school binds us
together in common ideals and pur-
poses. 1t symbolizes the motto Of
the United States-"Out Of many,
One"
The public school keeps vigorous
ly alive the spirit of enterprise. 1t
emphasizes qualities Of initiative,
self-dependence and Imagination
which has produced a wealthy and
powerful nation.
The public school can contribute
to the maintenance of our freedoms
only when it practices those free
doms itself Freedom to learn and
freedom to think have always been
basic to our free way of life.
Our prosperity owes much to the
public schools which have produced
a general high level Of education.
Educated people produce more, and
ignorance and poverty generally
90 hand in hand.
Free public education contributes
to the sound health, the deep loyal
ties and the courageous spirit Of
the men and women who makes up
our defense forces. In the class
rooms and laboratories of our
schools and colleges are developed
the technical knowledge and skill
which contribute to national Sc
curity. The public school is a
bright light Swallowed by the catas-
tropics of war and the uncertain
ties of peace.
We say we love and cherish our
public schools, yet we do not al
ways prove it by our deeds. We
spend more money on cigarettes,
on liquor, on refrigerators, and on
cars than we spend on educating
our children. Just how much of
your time do you spend trying to
understand your public school ?
Just how often do you talk with
and meet your children's teacher :?
How well do you cooperate in
making the task of educating our
children easier for those who are
trying to do it? These are ques-
lions we should all honestly ask
ourselves.
The public school is our response
bility. You and l can help to make
it force that will enable our
people to move forward in our
twentieth century with calm as

New Farm Corn .AllOtments
Available

Any producer who intends to
plant corn in 1855 on a farm
where no corn was planted dur
ing the years 1852, 1858 or 1854
should apply for a new farm"
corn acreage allotment if he
wants any price support or an
ACP payment in 1855, J. Leon
Tarburton, Chairman of the Kent
County Agricultural Sterilization
and Conservation Committee, said
today.
Marketing quotas do not apply
to corn, the Chairman explained
however, under the acreage allot-
ment program, the production of
corn in 1855 on farm which
has no corn acreage allotment
would make all the crops from
the farm ineligible for price sup
port in 1855. Likewise, the pro-
ducer on such farm would be
ineligible for any payment under
the 1855 Agricultural Conserva-
ton Program.
Application forms for ''neW
Farm" corn acreage allotments
are available at the County ASC
Office. January Is, 1866, is the
last day such applications may be
filed.
