Borne poets and composers have aid fortunes for everyone but themselves, yhOe otliera have been i smart enough to "clean op" while iw $e (retting was good. On the oth ."jftnd, some musicians don't know wnher t sell ng outright and poeyet theses. or ,tke a chance on pities frjun future sales. 1 John Philip Somas, the famous jttndmaster, faced that situation twice, and must have resolved the conflict with a flip of a coin, be cause he sold his "Washington Post March" outright for $35. Later he took a chance on publishing his equally well-known march, "Stars and Stripes Forever" on a royalty basis and pocketed more than $300, 000. A few years ago an American hand leader sued two popular com posers for $100,000, alleging plag iarism in connection with their pop ular song success, "Buttons and Bows."

In May, of 1949 he wrote "I , am nearly eighty three years of age, but strengtth from above has . been supplied to-, gether with the fulfillment of the promise 'My .God will supply all your need.' Not only the supply of the need but the timing of help has signalised the tokens of His provi dential care." iSome would say that Rev. Mr. Chisholm was wealthier with a faith like that than those more fortunate authors and composers who have made fortunes only to waste then! in riotous living and end out their OUK JUVEaE , ' D2LKQUENCYUP days devoid of both money and the Court ruled that the basic melody of sustaining faith of a true believer. the song was in the public domain, thus depriving the band leader of a larger fortune than Bach, Beethoven and Brahms had amassed in their (entire lii'e-time. That is a far cry from the trou bles that beset a British songwriter, James Alexander Belfour Campbell Tyrit, in September of 1963. While his name may not be familiar to American audiences as it is to Brit ish theater-goers, people on both , t sides. the ( Atlag; his J,Kol 'lamous songs witn equal gusto, De cause the man with the five names composed "Show me the way to go home" and the perennial favorite "Lot me call you sweetheart." That fateful September morning he was sentenced to a year in a hospital and put on three years probation for leaving a hotel without paying an -18 bill that he owed. The magis trate actually ordered him to repay the hotel the money he had "swin- iled" from them. What happened o the cash that must have poured n from his song successes is any ody'e guess! , There, is additional irony in the i ! act that the first, complete version , i the Jiationel anthem, "The Star i.i tgled Banner," hy Francea Scott ?v ;-.al4 : WZWjWMjpvViiHU Je recently, when, it was purchas- " I r' a;' permanent memorial to the I wyer-CPet.

This was not entirely unexpected, although the rise is a large one. We have mentioned- on previous occasions that juvenile delinquency can usually be traced to parents. We hope 'that parents in this community will take note of the increasing rate of juvenile delinquency and do their Dest ito sees tnat the rate in our community does .not rise. The FBI reports an 11.4 per cent increase in police arrest of young sters below the age of nineteen, al though these statistics were based on cities, generally, and not on rural communities. Although we are not of the opinion that the younger generation is go ing to the dogs, we do believe that parents should redouble their efforts to find constructive recreation pro grams for their children and that communities should likewise do all that is possible to provide outlets for the enthusiasm and energy of its youngsters.

This represents only about half of the total number of people drowned each year but they are crowded into the three sum mer months. The annual death toll in the Unit ed States from drowning grows larger each year. More than one half of those dying in this manner are young persons under twenty-four years of age. The largest single age group of persons drowned is the group between fifteen and nineteen years. Every vacationist should be care ful this summer. A period of rest and relaxation from work is fine and necessary, but carelessness should not rob it of its pleasure. To venture too far in the surf or yto take chances in a swift current means running the risk of drown ing. Swimmers should be extreme ly careful.
