Board Qualities

Approximately 100 persons at

night, called by the Garrett County
Council of Parents and Teachers to
discuss qualifications of school
board members and to conduct reg

Questions from various persons
we're directed at a panel which in
cluded members of the Board of
Education, the County Commits
sioners and Willard L. Hawkins,
county superintendent of schools
Mrs. Kermit Glotfelty, council
president, pointed out the organi-
cation had no desire to interfere
with the prerogatives of the State
Central committees, or members
of the legislature, but it did feel
its members had a right to offer
suggestions regarding qualified
persons to appoint as school board
members. The group suggested
only one name. that of Mrs Mary
Martin. of Mt. Lake Park, former
county council president, but no
action was taken. The council will
make a continuing study of meth
DDS to be used in the future for
recommending qualified school
board members, it was stated.
The discussion moved into other
channels, including the plan to i'm
plement teachers salaries and boost
school construction funds by bill
to provide penny tax on each pack
of cigarets sold in the county.

islative committee of the county
teachers association reported on the

to pay more taxes the answer was
unanimous yes on the vote

ported in the newspapers the fol
lowing day
Mr.. Hawkins spoke briefly on
what parents could do to better the
school program. He suggested they

Ii Runs Through
My Mind
BY POLLY ]. HANSr

It's little wonder there is strain
and sometimes friction among
mothers and daughters. Mothers
want their sons to measure up to
their dads. That accomplished, they
are satisfied
But they want their daughters to
outshine themselves on all sides
And especially do they want them
strong where they recognize weak
ness in their own lives.
A house after a slumber party
looks for all the world like a hotel
room that has just been vacated.
There'l Be Better Day
The job of homemaker," wrote
young woman to her aunt, is
just like stringing beans on cord
that has no knot tied in the end"
Id like to say TO that young per-
son, Cheer up. Therell come a day
when homemaking is like stringing
beans on a cord-but you will have
learned to put them on one end
with the right hand at the same
time using the left hand to string
the other end
Little, Some, or Much
We can hardly use the term with
out chuckling, for that's the way
the report cards a few years past
affected many of us.
There was page of statements
other than academic on which the
teacher had to check-little, some
or much. No doubt the teacher
found that Neutrality-suspicious.
it gave us parents a headache to
try to figure it out.
Not so with an early report card
that Mr.. William NJ. British, super
intendent of Washington county
schools, read at the county teachers
meeting
Wonder how the teachers would
like to whip up report cards for
each of their students that told how
many questions they had answered.
Report Card in 1926
Elizabeth has been engaged.
during her attendance at this school
in storing her memory, that strong
and capacious storehouse of man
kind with useful ideas, lessons and
information generally.
Pursuant to this end, she hath
deposited in her memory for future
use the multiplication and other
arithmetical tables
She had repeated the principal
divisions, oceans. islands. etc, and
answered 100 questions on the map
of the world.
She hath recited the principal di-
visions, lakes, rivers, bays, CULTS,
etc, and answered Al questions on
the map of North America.
She hath defined the boundaries
of u of the United States and re-
peated IS of the chief towns and
80 of the principal rivers belonging
to these u states and answered Sc
questions corresponding to the
geography of that fine country
On the map of South America she
hath committed to memory the diff
ferent countries belonging to that
great peninsula and repeated So
chief towns and 33 of the principal
rivers and answered 80 questions
corresponding with its geography.
Let no one say hereafter, that
females cannot learn, for that is
an assertion without foundation.
Elizabeth is a living proof to the
contrary and she merits the appro-
baton and encouragement of her
parents and friends
Give Him a Monument
Any teacher who made such a
startling discovery that females can
learn-ought to go down in history
along with Columbus,
Why, we might still be spinning
the flax if it hadn't been for that

Rayburn Backs
|Gas Bill As II
Wins First Test
BY ROBERT X. WALSH

DS Ie0A&Ae4 AAa NNNAAOAA
Speaker Rayburn sparked a
House debate on a bitterly dis
puted natural gas bill today by
warning that Federal regula-
ton of producers prices would
decrease gas supplies. stifle COM
petition and hurt the consumer.
The measure to exempt pro-
ducers from Federal Power
Commission control won its first
test when the House voted 272
to 1876 to take it UP Immediate
ly. This vote rejected an effort
to return the bill to committee
for a comprehensive study of
the industry and consumer price
situation.
After a scheduled three hours
|of general debate this afternoon,
however, opponents could pro-
pose as many amendments as
they wished. The issue was so
controversial and with both par
ties so widely split that both
sides were wary about predict
ing the outcome.
Speaker Rayburn, IN one of
his rare speeches on the floor,
urged friends and foes of the
exemption bill to agree at least
on permitting House considera-
tion and a decisive vote. At the
same time, the veteran Texas
Democrat made his own position
clear on the bill itself by de-
claring that enactment of the
Legislation would mean more
land more competition and more
land more gas and reduction in
the price of gas to the con-
Isumer."
He contradicted contentious
that consumer prices would soal
even higher than the $2.42 rate
lin New York and SO in some
other cities, if the pending bill
lis passed.

he owns no oil or gas stock ant
