W'e have parent-teacher associations and clubs of many kinds, but we are still not succeeding as we should. There is too much shifting of aur re sponsibilities The home is trying to cast the burden of making perfect citizens of their clflfftrrn on'the schools, and the schools are too ofteifdependfrig on* the home to do more for the children.

Knowing your school would be a fine and yet we do not. It is extremely doubtful if per of the Williamston folks know the Williamston teachers i by either name or face. „ I School opportunities slip by too many boys and I girls, from one cause or another, generally of either parent or teacher. And the sad thing is that passed opportunities never come by again. 'I he week's program offered is a challenge to the people who ar spending such large sums for educa tion to take a vital interest in malting every dollar j count the most for their children. Much of the ignorance of the day is the fruit of ' neglect. Most of the young men wtfb are entering 1 the prison doors today areitfie of neglect. We need to give more attention to our children. | The Automobile Beats Them All I The automobile beats them all. Our country may | improve her high-powered cannon, an plane bombs, | H )ison gas, or any other black Jeaih method, but w;* can never do the killing stunt quite so easily as the | automobile is doing. The question of "W hat is Success?" can easdy be answered: Killing by automobile. Certainly, with the many millions of cars >n the i road daily, filled with passengers, we may expect some incidents. However, most of the automobile trouble comes from carelessness rather than accidents, i Our next General Assembly will have no more im than to try to regulate the automobile traffic Our forefathers* made the crime of burglary one of the greatest offenses and prescribed the death penalty against any person whit enters the home M another in the night. The severity of the |»enalty is based on the supposition that when a person enters the I tome of another, although he has no intention of doing bodily harm, yet unde rthe circumstances and the pressure that might ari*e, should he IK* detected while pillaging the house he would kill if necessary. \o«, .aim, about, the drunken automobile driver.- 1 Is there any less danger in being on the public traffic lanes where In* drives than there is in a house where a burglar slips in and steals. It is |»ossibly an ex treme, view to say that the person who takes the wheel of an automobile while drunk and drives a mong thousands, endangering the lives of all, should lie punished by death". It is not an extreme sugges tion. however, that the penalty must be multiplied ■j Many times more than it now is. At any rate our laws must l>e so strengthened that riding the public highways will be safer, whether it i- to make each driver procure a license to drive and | furnish a bond for his actions, .or whatever it is, something must be done.
