THE attention Of Americans everywhere is
focused on the fasta approaching holiday
season. Christmas this year falls On 4 sun

ber billions Of dollars will he spent In the
United States for Christmas gifts arrange
ments, parties and for travel. We hope
these billions Of dollars, spent Wy Amefi-
cans, who are the only people on earth VINO
could spend such an amount for Christmas,
will bring about a realization Of the values
Of Christmas and it's meaning.
Christmas has been oVer-commercaliz-

Teachers Merit System

Of trustees and school officials to decide.
Ii seems 10 us that teacher should
prefer to be paid for his work In other
words, he would appreciate better pay for
service and better work in the school or
college in which he il teaching.
Under such a system, automatic yearly
raises would be eliminated, at least As far
as they are supposed TO be the teacher
full adjustment each year 4 seniority
raise, somewhat on the order Of army SEN
orlty, might be maintained, but the ma
lor condition which would determine the
scale Of pay would be the teachers per
Torrance.
We believe such system would give
new incentive to teachers to improve them
gcIvcs, would provide better level Of in
struction in schools and colleges. and
would be fair to all concerned.

During the greater part of last
week Caldwell, was honored
with the presence of a rare and
highly distinguished visitor. He
was Mr.. Walter Taylor, of
Brooksville, Fla, whose ances-
tors were held in slavery in the
Southland during many years
previous to the closing days of
the Civil War. His mother lived
until within a few days of one
hundred years.
While here Walter was enter
tanned at the homes of Mr.. and
Mrs. Henry Brumbach and Mr..
Ralph Brumbach and on Thurs
day noon he was the dinner
guest at the home of Mr.. and
Mrs. Clyde Y. Harris. On Friday
he was also the dinner guest at
the home &C Mr.. and Mrs. Arthur
L. Schafer.
For more than forty years
Walter has been the highly eff
ficient, pleasing and most court
eous fishermen's guide at Camp
Gulfport, located on the east
shore Of the Gulf of Mexico and
at a distance of seventeen miles
from Brooksville, the principal
modern properties of which
camp are owned and operated by
Mr.. Pat Murphy, a prominent
and popular Brooksville druggist.
This camp is annually, during
winter and summer months,
visited by many hundreds of
vacationists and all are highly
pleased with the treatment they
received at the hands of Walter;
this we know, because this writer
has been there.
On Thursday evening recep-
ton, instigated by Mr.. and Mrs.
Robert c. Moore, Mr.. and Mrs.
Henry Brumbach and Mr.. Ralph
Brumbach, was held in the
Moore cottage at Seneca Lake
and was attended by some fifty
invited persons. During the
evening a most delicious dinner,
consisting of almost all delicacies
from roast turkey down to and
including pickles, was served by
the lady members Of the party.
Walter was the honored guest
and among the presents bestow-
ed upon him was a fine gold
watch encased in a beautiful
case that might have been the
envy of all who gazed upon it.
To say that Walter was delight
ed with his presents would be
only stating a fact mildly. The
occasion was also the rs anniver-
sary Of the birth of Mr.. Ralph
Brumbach and he, too, was pre-
sented with an elegant present
