GET ENJOYMENT OUT OF LIFE

A writer. visiting in Europe recently, observed the
average European family gets much more out OF the simple
things than the average American family.
In Spain, for example. the average wages are very low.
An American visitor can and does spend in one day what
the average Spaniard may spend in a month. In our own
community there are those that complain because they only
have electric washers, driers, electric refrigerators, and of
course a car (al paid for, tool Yet there is still heard from
these people the cry that they are deprived the necessities
of life.
The interesting observation is that happiness is OBJ
viously a relative thing. And accepting the figures which
show that more suicides are committed by milionaires than
by poor men, one can readily see that money does not
make for happiness. In fact it often works out that the more
money one attains the less happiness he actually finds.
The moral of all this is to develop a philosophy of life
which will allow you to enjoy what you have and what
you are doing, or to find a way to do something you enjoy
doing. There is no reason why you should not be getting
something out of life, and enjoying the little things, each
day, as you continue your journey toward the grave.
We learn much from these European families who get
so much out of so little, and who laugh SO much each day,
and have real pleasure, even though they are, relatively
speaking, ~pitifully poor.

Lawrey Proised

AN unfortunate impression was
created by the TwlnbrooK column
of last week dated January 8,
1883, concerning the new issue
of the Twlnbrook Directory. The
Twinbrook Citizens Association
wishes to clear up that impress
sion. Plainly stated, the fact is
that full credit for the Direc-
tory must go to one man and
one only, to Tom Lawrey, imme-
date past president of TEA.
Overcoming the obstacles of in
credible growth and a rapid shift
in population new families
moving in daily, old names be-
ing removed-Mr. Lawrey almost
alone undertook the task of put
ting the directory together. He
assembled the material, read
proofs and solicited advertising.
To Mr.. Lawrey and those who
helped him, TEA extends its most
sincere thanks for remarkably
good job in producing fine di-
rectory.
On behalf of the TEA Execu-
tive Committee,
Mrs. Jean Everhart, President
Twinbrook Citizens Association

ing from $40 per day to 500 per day. That was a
hundred percent increase in just one year And
now they were raising 1t by so percent just
one year later. In the 1947-51 period, legislators
were paid $50 expenses for the entire legislative
meeting)
Do a little quick arithmetic It's easy. The
legislators get salary Of $500 per year. With
expenses of $50 per day they would be getting
$2700 for their expenses during the present 90day
session Add the $500 salary to the $27OO
(expenses) and you get $4,000. So that's $4,000 for
80 days work! Now divide the number ninety (for
how many days there are in the legislative ses-
sion) into the $500 total to find out how much
they'd be getting per day. It comes to daily
pay of $50. And that amt hay!
The responsible legislators (of which there
some) said they regretted the whole thing
very much. In fact, they were deeply sorry
shout it. $50 were the taxpayers.) After
talking to their constituents, the Assembly
men, to man, were, in fact, very deeply
sorry about IL.
On Monday night when they reconvened
after the abortive raid on the State treasury
(that would have cost $110700), the House quick
ly rescinded its action on the $10per-day increase.
That night, Senate President Della allowed as
how the Senate would undoubtedly keep its ex-
pense ceiling at 500 per day, too. CThe Senates
little raise would have tapped the State treasury
for another $26100.)
Meanwhile, rumors have begun to circulate
that citizen vigilantes are mapping plans to nail
down the State House, paddock the State treasury,
and petition the General Assembly to go home.
In the old days, under the kings colonial COVER
nors it was lot simpler. The governor simply
dissolved the legislature Now 1t isn't quite so
simple. The citizens have to wait four years,
sometimes for the next election.

Ideo With Merit

"A ERIT pay increases Tor teachers are
NA good! wedding out unqualified teach
ers is good
taltering steps designed to accomplish
both OF these are beng taken by School
Superintendent Whittier and the School
Board. And they deserve support.
One might think that both of these
points paying good teachers more than
just average teachers and firing teachers
who can't teach at all - are so obviously
worthwhile that they should have been put
into effect years ago.
Principal obstacle to this, probably, has
been the teachers shortage. Beggars can't
be choosers and Montgomery County has
almost been reduced to begging for teachers.
The reason a 5000 annual pupil increase
every year in recent years and Is percent
turnover in teaching personnel each year.
Now, however, Superintendent WHITTIER
apparently feels he can begin to work toward
these two worthwhile detectives. And we sus-
pect large part OF his reasoning is the fact
that the school board is now requesting a
major teachers pay increase which will, if
approved by the county government, tend to
create more of a buyers market here as far
as teachers are concerned.
In any event. the idea of paying our
better teachers more money is good one.
And it is reaSsuring to know that the school
system is now about to look more closely at
its teaching staff with view to wedding out
the not-very-good ones Both improvements
are long overdue and the twin proposals
deserve the support of the County Manager
and the County Council.
