To Graduates About this time each year we try to write something we sincerely hope will be beneficial to the many who have recently or will soon complete the high school coLirse of study. Each girl and boy who earns a high school diploma deserv^es congratulations and whatever commendation we can of fer in the way of favorable comment. The number who reach that point in education is small compared with the number who enter school in the first grade. If the high school days have accom plished their purpose they have given the student an insight into ways of procuring knowledge and the use of education as well as stuffed their intellects with certain facts. With few exceptions, hig'h school grad uates, however commendable their present achievement may be, are not ready to take their places in the world scramble without And I’ll take the parachute.

In the case of the ten-year old who was killed in Rowan county, the officer whe made the investigation of the acciden stated that: “Child playing in road on way home from school, with a home-made scooter made from skates, rode his scooter in front of car from left side of road to the extreme right side of the road. Opera tor of car blew horn when first saw chil dren, then when child scooted in front of him, applied brakes. Child kept coming and when impact occurred car was com pletely off the highway and child jump ed off the scooter directly in front of car.” This is a case where a child was not warned sufficiently about the dangers of the highway—that highways should not|J be used as a playground. Or perhaps the driver of the car was at fault in not reduc ing the speed of his car until the children were passed. Certainly .someone somewhere was at fault; and if everyone concerned— teachers, principals, bus drivers, car driv-! ers, and pupils—would be always on the alert to teach safety habits, to warn of dan- mokt any of the questione a4x>ut the war. It is “We don’t know.’’ However, we may qualify that answer with whatever impreasion we may have received from read ing today.’a paipeM. Fertilizer Leader Hits U, S. Charges card across to the other. In case you did the words were “Go To Church and Dance.” IT r.4N H.AI'PEX HERE— LAl’GH OE THE WEEK One night this past winter, it seems, a Wilkes constable was getting ready for bed when he thought he heard a nol.^e in the chicken bouse. He had disrobed clear down to his long underwear, but didn’t want to take time, to put his clothes on again, so he just slipped on his shoes, grabbed his trusty shotgun and the flash light, and went out to investi- taxed to meet the demands of the farmer and other production vitrl to national defense.” Charles’ J.

Therefore, it is advi sable that tho.se who can, continue their i ^gj.g highway, to practice safe driv- education in institutions of higher learn- ) hab’+s, and to take precaution where ing. But in so doing, there should be a de cision as to what use the knowledge gain ed will be put to and what training should be acquired. This knowledge ;n advance will prevent lo.st time and encourage great er efficiency. - But all the education and all the train ing will never sub.stitute for hard work, whether it be physical, mental or a com bination of the two. Many boys and girls have already met, that character called “Hard Work” and are not daunted at the prospects of meeting him daily. Others, reared in an environment and under cir- cum.stances where work was not essential on their part to filling their physical wants, will find “Hard Work” a stranger. The acquaintance in that case will not be pleas ant but, like a dose of medicine, is essen tial sometimes for the well being of the patient. To each and every graduate we e.xtend congratulations and be.st wishes for the fu- tui e, which, at best, is uncertain. - children are involved, the accidents on the highways would be reduced to a minimum We all have a part in the preservation of lives on the highway. Let’s all do our part at all times. One Form of Sabotage The Coatesville, Penn.sylvania, Record recently published a letter written home by a young man who had been taken into the army under the selective service act. He said; “We give up a year of our live.s, the comforts of homes, and countless other things for barracks, hard work and duty from sun-up to sun-down. We do our part and do it harder than anyone at home, and yet it’s the people at home who are doing the kicking and squawking. “They kick about wages and squeal about hours, strikes, threaten to strike, tie up machiner>', and there you are . . . The people want soldiers—millions of them. Yet every day it’s becoming apparent that many of these same people think more of a few cents an hour than they do of thei> own children and relatives. It is interesting to know what young men who are serving their country in the army for less than a dollar a day think of the highest paid workmen in the world who threaten to block defense production un less they are paid still more. How much longer will the American people stand for this form of sabotage? Barber’s bill found in Deerfield, Mass, shows shaves cost 50 cents in 1756. Let’s quit laughing at the beards in our family albums.—St. Louis Star-Times. The nazi education is so debasing the German character and blunting the intelli gence of the German youth that in our own - Interest it would be a pity to interfere with the continuance of that process.—London E- ^Tiaies TEST FOR PEPPER (Greensboro Daily News) Florida’.s Senator Pepper is amongs' those who profe.ss to be most concerned over the defense of democracy. The tenor of his remarks leaves little, if any, doubi of hi.s willingness to make off “short of war” in the aid which he would give to Great Britain as the mo.st effective mean of pre.serving our own liberties and insti tutions. B'jt, while the Florida flame thrower is waxing eloquent on this theme, an incident which can hardly be classified as the acme of democracy or the operation of those rig’its and privileges which he would as sure to Americans by further British • aid has occurred down in his own bailiwick. At Quincy, Fla., a negro Was taken from the sheriff and lynched. From all ac counts it was an exaggerated case of mob- bery as two lynching efforts were requir ed before the purpo.se was attained. The hapless negro, charged with attempted as sault, was first taken from jail, pummeled and shot by the mob and left for dead. In some manner, however, he survived and made his way to a nearby house where h' i \vas again taken in tow by officers and dis patched in an unguarded ambulance to i Tallahassee hospital 25 miles away. H never reached that destination, as anothei or the same mob halted the ambulance, made off with its half-dead occupant and this time finished the heinous crime which it .set out to accomplish. And so far pro fessed investigators are up against a blank wall; officers in two direct brushes with the mobsters positively recognized nobody in the band. So far as we have noticed Senator Pep- pe»*, with all his concern for and undying interest in democracy and preservation of the American way, has uttered not a word of condemnation of the flagrant violation of just about all the constitutional guar antees there are in his home state from which he will presumably ask re-election.' Our own idea—and we will most happily apologize in event we demonstrably do the Everglades honorable an injustice—is that the senator would not advocate passage of federal anti-l3Tiching legislation, under which F. B. I. agents could sent to fer ret out mobsters who are never recogniz ed, must less aj^prehended, by local offi cers, even in exchange for excavation of that trans-Florida canal in which he ha; been so profoundly interested. • Get definite proof of yalue be fore you buy your electric refrig erator!
