spiced with humor.
You'd probably meet some
Of the grandchildren. too.
And she might tell you some
thing about Mr.. Remsberg
for she obviously is proud Of
her husband, q prominent
dairy farmer who has been
president of the Maryland
and Virginia Milk Producers
Association since 1919 and is
internationally known as q
Judge Of dairy cattle.
But you would never learn
from Mrs. Remsberg herself
that she. too. is prominent in
her own right.
Actually, however, she is
one Of her States outstand-
ing club leaders. And Mary
landers take special pride in
her role in home demonstra-
ton work over the last 80
years.
Active In Clubs
Shortly after her marriage
Mrs. Remsberg became q
charter member Of the Mid
dletown Homemakers Club
and she has been active in
the mid-valley, county and
State homemaker organiza-
tons from their founding.
Five years ago she stepped
into the national spotlight

Comments On
coEVAL LIFE
BY Victoria A. VeIascO

Progress is relatively slow, espe-
cially in the field of mental proc
esses. The emancipation of the in
telIect comes after a long, tragic
struggle.
Filipino forum. [volume] (Seattle, Wash.) 1928-196?, 1959-04-23


The vestiges of colonial men
talfty are still evident in the midst
of material progress. A captive
mind housed in the superficialities
of sheer material comfort is one
of the great tragedies of modern
life.
How glaringly stupid it is for
people who boast of academic adj
vantages to still cling to the old
traditions of the colonial period
when the peoples mind was the
willing captive of the reigning
power.
Their education is a monument
of magnificent failure. The sheep
skin" that adorns their office, but
is a disgrace to the system that
produced it, belongs by merit to
the garbage can. Their mentality
is of the colonial type, only fit for
the slaves and the unfortunate
victims of imperial designers.

GREAT DISCOVERY

Sra. de Pascual just discovered
an interesting secret.
What's that, did I hear you
say?"
Well, she just found out that
she has been much gossiped about,
inside out, from head to toe, back
ward and forward, wise and other
wise.
Hurt? NO SIR, not Sra. de Pas
cual. She says it is more of a
benefit than an injury because,
actually the gossipers have done
just the very opposite of what
they thought they were trying to
do.
They have told the world Sra.
de Pascual's Gas yet undiscovered
by herr own personal worth.
Great discovery, isn't it?
Spring, with that nameless pa
thos in the air
Which dwells with all things
fair,
Spring, with her golden suns
and silver rain,
Is with us once again.
Many highway accidents win be
eliminated when people learn that
our modern cars come equipped
with everything but brains.
