Good Idea

The president general of the National Society Daughters
of the American Revolution has asked for nationwide OBJ
Of February American History month, time of
calling for rededicaton to the principles of 1.-The just pride
of patriotism" That sounds like a good idea.
The president has declared "Americansm is faith, be-
lief that man. with Gods help capable of sef-rule Based
eternal principles of freedom and justice, it is meless
Just essential in this age the past Only by thorough
understanding of the principles which this nation
built understand the spirit of America and
to our posterity Freedoms Holy Light"
This organization feels that the emphasis place
years upon love of country and just pride
in its history citizens will be buwarked against
nsidous poison of reasonable conspiracy That is why
the OAR has as a special project the encouragement of
history teaching the fifth sixth seventh and eighth
grades.
Apparently the OAR is the only group doing some
worrying about lack of history in schools Just last
Sunday article in This Week magazine point
ing many of cherished national memories
fading because today textbooks longer find for
the article asks that we put pride back history books
This pride be returned by putting back in history
the brave tales of past which point gaantry
vaor herosm which have become cOnspcuousy absent
That there already is evidence of change related
several months ago by Dr. George S. Benson director of
the National Education program who showed the difference
in the 1916 edition of Magruders American Government
and the edition The difference in that book concerned
the definition of Socialism, The 1866 edition explains why
nation has the highest standard Of living known to
man and it because Americans have carried forward the
spirit the Declaration of Independence through private
enterprise.
So we say Giving a proper perspective to the i'm
portance of history in lives is a good idea.

Two Charged With
Being Delinquent
Hearing Held Wednesday
Under Supervision Of
Juvenile Court

Two young men of Oakland were
given a hearing Wednesday under
jurisdiction of the juvenile court,
on charges of being delinquent.
The charges grew out of the fact
that a group of teen ayers had
ganged up on Ernest Peters, II,
and beat him up for no apparent
reason, last Friday evening on
Third street.
Warrants we're sworn out for the
arrest of three who were identified.
but at the hearing it was decided
to hold only two of them one of
them was said by States Attorney
S. r. Pagenhardt. to have admitted
doing the beating. while others held
the youth.
Since the case was heard before
the magistrate sitting as a juvenile
officer. the law prohibits the pub
LEGATION of the names of the per-
sons involved. However, the States
Attorney. who was firm in his con-
demnation of such action, indicated
that if there were any future oc-
currences they would not be tried
under the juvenile law but would
be tried under the criminal statutes
wherein the charge is recorded
permanently against a persons
name
Because of the unwantOn attack
and the attitude of the boys in
volved. Pagcnhardt pressed for
sentencing the boys to the Mary
land Training School but w O. Bit
ger, magistrate. withheld his de-
cision in the matter until proper
study of the case had been made.
Pagenhardt termed the formation
of these juvenile gangs as danger
Gus and asked for stiff penalties to
prevent any recurrence. He said
eight or ten persons had been in
volved. He said he had information
that told of the boys tossing coins
to see which person would be Sc
lected to do the beating while
others of the gang held the victim
helpless,
Peters. a son of MIR. and Mrs.
Ernest Peters, ST.. just recently
moved 10 this community. Mr..

At a meeting of members of the
Loar Auxiliary to the Garrett Coun-
ty Memorial hospital on January
IL. they agreed to make their prof.
ect this year the raising of money
to pay for an Isolette which was
recently installed at the hospital.
This is a continuation of projects
to furnish needed items at the hos
pital. Last year the organizations
project was the purchase of an
oxygen tent, for which they paid
S6735O. The money was raised
largely by subscription and through
memberships.

raise S785.22 to pay for the Isolette.
Miss Irene Sharpe, hospital super
intendent said both the IsOlette
and oxygen tent are used constant
ly by the hospital and provide a
very real service there.
The Isolette is an infant incubator
which has forced air circulating
system. Bathing, feeding and lifting
the baby can be accomplished with
safety. There is an access door to
the isolette for placing supplies in
side the incubator. II is possible to
weigh the baby without the neces-
sity of opening the hood. 1t is a
completely air conditioned isolation
unit. Independent of the atmosphere
in the nursery, protecting its pa
tent from germs. From the time the
newborn baby is placed in the $50
lette until its removal to regular
bassinet the hood is never opened.
An infant usually remains in the
Isolette until it weighs five pounds.
On Wednesday, February Is, the
organization is planning a dutch
treat" luncheon at which there will
be representatives from each COM
munity in the surrounding area.
At this time plans will be formu-
lated for the raising of funds to
pay for this Isolette.
