Friday, August 7, 1936 Don't Follow the Liberty Leaguers Perhaps iherr is nothing so new under the sun as the claim of the Libert) Leaguers that they are Jef fersoman- Now we notice where they are headed, and the Republican Party will receive them with open arms. The country will probably not lose so much if they land in the Republican I'arty. The thiny for the rank and file to loo out for is the unfounded ap|ieals to pull them into the sane fold We all know that business conditions are im proved at least 100 jiercent with most people We all know that general business is now in the hands of the people generally, and out of the hand- of con centrated wealth We all know that when we get back in the clutches of concentrated wealth, our free dom will be gone for a time We can t expect a good government from a few wealthy people whose only desire is to manipulate the business of the coun try for their own personal gain as we may ex|ie<t when all tin- people woik in harmony and for the common good of all Our liberties are not in danger when the people are in charge, but the people will mour when the autocrats get hold of the reins again. A Costly and Unnecessary Expense The heaviest expense and one that isn't necessary in our school system is caused by grade repeaters. It is estimated that about one third of the school chil dren fail to make their grades each year, which means that one-third of the teacher- salaries is wast ed annual! because the same children come to school to go over the same grade twice. There are probably many reasons for grade repeat mg, tnd one is found in the home where parents fail to give their children the proper attention, and allow the pupils to go to school day after day with their lessons unprepared. The children become discour aged and disgruntled creating a condition that Is difficult for the school people to handle. There are many other causes for grade repeating. Probably the worst and most pitiable of all, is the physical defects, including weak eyes, deafness, bad tonsils, dcayed teeth and others that are overlook ed until after the child's chances and opportunities have been thwarted. Many of these ailments could easily be remedied, and the coat of the treatment would be far leas than the teaching of grad failures, not to mention the loss suffered by the child. Many of the counties in North Carolina are hav ing regular dental clinics, making available treatment to those who are unable to care for the costs them selves. 1'his valuable service is made possible through a cooperative plan in which the county accepts one half the cost and the State the other half. The total cost to the average county is about $900 a year, the cooperating counties having found the cost ol the dental clinics lar less than the cost of teaching re peaters. This county is well able to take on the service, but so far we have been content to condition our cars for a long trip and leave go the children in their race through life. We are spending millions to make instruction available to our children, but neglecting, too often, the teak of conditioning them to receive the instruction and training provided. Many, many dollars would.be saved each year by keeping the children physically fit to make their grades and pass on well equipped to meet the battles of life. The Olympic Games a The contests held in connection with the Olympic games are getting much publicity these days, and are bringing out the mule and the ox in men of practi cally every civilized nation of the earth. That is, the muscles and endurance of men are be ing tested just as the strength and endurance of the mule and the ox are. The Olympic games are not conducted for the pur |*ise of training statesmen, lawyers, preachers, poets, or scientists. They are purely contests of brute pow er and strength. Such may do a lot of god, but we > annul see any such effects. , The Better and Finer Things Morganton News-Herald. It is (rossible for the world, if it continues its mad marc h toward preparation for war, to wipe out all that civilization has been able to accomplish in the past 30Q years. Once the spark is lit that sets the pow der magazine? of war aflame there is no stopping until it has burned itself out to its blackened embers. If tear, greed and jealousy could be removed and nations could turn the vast power of modern science and in vention and resource toward the things that make for Utter and liner and larger things, there is no limit to the ends we might go. What a tragedy all people cannot see and understand it in this way. Compared to the marvels and the beauty and the wonder pos sible in such exalted living, the greatest gains ol war are cumman and little and of no consequence. Standings BASEBALL Results The heading immediately above probably ahouid read "Individual glueing Marks," judging from reeulti of the past two weeks, but let it stand?maybe the boys"ll get going again this week. The Martins' .300 hitters have dwindled almost to the vanishing point. Gay lord, Douglass, Armstrong, and Black, all of whom were doing better than .300 two weeks ago, dropping below that figure Gay lord and Black are still within strik ing distance, however, and may get back in the neat few days Csrbitt stepped out to raise his average to .328 to pace the whole team, with the exception of Jimmy Sudduth, newcomer, whose .370 sounds good for the 7 games he has piayed in so far. His 10 hits include 3 doubles and 2 hom ers, and he had some tough luck on several other well-hit balls. Douglass, Ferrell, Armstrong and Earp dropped down in the standings, but are due to snap back into it. Corbitt leads in. runs scored, total hits, two-baggers, stolen bases and is third in total bases Black is showing the way in total bases and runs batted in and is second in homers. Fred Walters hit three round-trippers in the past two weeks to lead in this particular with 9. He is second in runs batted in, total bases, and thud m runs scored Gaylord stands second in runs scored, doubles, and stolen bases. And that's about all there is to brag about?except one other little detail: The Martins are still leading the league, 2 1-2 games out in front Monday morning. Prob ably the Martins' pitching staff had something to do with that part of the record. Check up sometime and see.
