ALAN GOLDSBOROUGH of Caroline County EDITORIAL NOTES. In no presidential year has there been less uneasiness on the part of the general public as to "what is going to happen to the country." From the standpoint of being investors and drawing 1 interest on stocks, bonds or savings bank accounts, the majority of our citizens are "capital. ists," that is, they have money that is earning them money. Both candidates for president fully realize this fact as do most candidates for other public offices. Political bushwhacking of industry is less popular than ever because every blow that is giv.cn industry is a direct attack upon the life savings ol many small investors.

The capita for our basic lines of industry no longer comes from a few wealthy men but from millions of men, women and children. Business in the United States has to be conducted upon such a lar scale today that no one man or group of men has enough money to conduc it alone as in the past. For tha reason most of our business is ownec by the great mass of the people who share in the profits and the losses. It is for this reason that all gov eminent, local and national, must be the most stable. Our public officials who have th law-making and regulating power in their hands are virtually the custod inns of the nation's wealth.

Just a the executives of an industry arc re sponsible to the stockholders for pro fits and losses, so are the officials government responsible for the law and policies whicli encourage or dis courage industrial stability with re suiting profit or loss to the citizens this nation! i Men qualified to hold public oflic realize this fact today more clearly than ever before and for this reason do' not make as many business dis turbing proposals as in the pas They appreciate more fully their duty toward all of our citizens rather than special service to any particular group or class. Man is a discontented animal. I he had not been discontented, he wouli still be tending 1 tho fire in his cavi and hunting in the wilderness for hi food. Discontent has been the grca motive power in the progress of man kind from its primitive beginnings its present stage of relative civiliza tion. Art, Government, arc the products of discontent.

The con structive dissatisfaction which inspire' us to nobler achievements is the great cst asset of the human race. Some of us, however, arc discon tented in an unconstructivc way. are unconcerned about corruption am ignorance and the cal lous disregard of the strong for th weak and unfortunate." We are un happy because we have not attaine a position of supremacy over others because we arc not more 'affluent than our fellowmcn. We feel hardly usei if a horse goes lame, a business dca goes awry, or if we do not win a fa job in the political lottery. Littl troubles fret us; we grow peeved an sour and indulge in that degcncrat ing vice, self-pity.

How trifling ai our wrongs seem in the face of rcn disaster. How insignificant and un worthy our" business or political wor ries become when the baby is ill an the doctor offers little hope. An when we suspect that our gnawin; ailment is but the first whispers the last mighty command to leav our little stage forever, how chea and mean seem most of our ambi tions and the causes of most of ou discontent. The past ten years might be calle the period of the discovery, of the pre school years. Child specialists an psychologists have recently been cal ing to parents' attention the fact tha the most lasting impressions and hab its for life are fixed during pre-schoo years, or before the child goes public school.

Among 1 these habits Miss Agne Grabiel of the Pittsburgh unit of th National Dairy Council believes non are more important than the rigl food habits. "The child whose parents' will allo' him to play with his food at the tabL to refuse spinach, green beans, orang juice, milk and some of the other sentiala in the well-rounded diet, i being harmed in two ways. Not onl is the health question involved, whic ttie absence of these elements in th diet all through life means, but thcr is also the'mental or social risk, warns Miss Grabiel. "The child who" is pampered an jvho develops peculiar tastes, likes and desires, is apt to become a misfi in society in more ways than one. little wholesome discipline of th right kind, positive firmness instca -of nagging, nnd above all the par ents' own appreciation of nourishin foods, is most important during thi pro-school lime." How Mothers Can Ileln.

"How cnn mothers help to prevent he spread of the catching diseases mong children at school?" is asked nd answered in a bulletin issued by he TJ. S. Public Health Service, to Dr. R. H.

Riley, Director of the State Department of Health, alls attention. Mothers are advised, in the first lace, to have their children protected gainst certain diseases, particularly mallpox nnd diphtheria, before they re enrolled in school. In this con- icction, Dr. Riley points out the fact hat thc Maryland law makes it com- mlsory for parents to have their chil- Jren vaccinated against smallpox be- ore they can be received in the schools the State. Clinics for immuniza- ion against diphtheria have been held a number of schools, and arrange- ncnts for such immunization can al- vays be made, Dr.

Riley said, through he Deputy or County Health Officer, through the Public Health Nurse. But how about the other diseases? a child seems droopy on any par- icular day, how is a mother to know vliothcr or not to send thc child to chool? For her guidance, in making icr decision, two principles arc laid down; first, the interest of the child; econd, thc interest of thc neighbors' hildren, considering all fellow-patrons thc school as neighbors. For thc child's own sake, as well as prevent what may be the beginning of a catching disease from spreading the other children, the child should ie kept at home and the family doc- or sent for, if any of the following symptoms arc present: Fever, sore throat, diarrhea, severe abdominal pain, earache, discharging cars, discharging sore eyes, paroxysmal cough, if coughing spells arc fol- owcd by vomiting and always if fol- owcd by whoop; severe colds even vhen no fever is present, thc presence of an eruption not due to scratches lard soaps, to sonic other condition or in thc olcler children to acne (pimples). "No child can study to advantage, 1 thc Bulletin continues, "if i.ll onougl have fever, soro throat, a severe cold, or, if he has earache, discharging sore eyes, diarrhea, or severe ab dominal pain. Indeed under such circumstances, attendance at school may be a positive danger to tho child itself and if the symptom is thc manifesta tion of a beginning contagious disease as some of the symptoms often are there is danger that thc child may give tho disease to some of its play mates before thc disease is recog nizcd." Thc danger to everybody conce'rnci from sonic of these symptoms is Let tcr understood when it is explains that what seems to be "just cold may be thc beginning of an attack measles and a discharging car may in dicatc the presence of some other con tagious disease, particularly scarlc fever.

A discharge of this sort is no only dangerous for the child, but i may cause the spread of tho iliseas to others. Eastern Shore To Have Weather Bureau.

A. Mccls. The first meeting of the Dun ton P. for the year H)i28-l'J2) was held the auditorium of Caroline High School on Monday evening last. The n-esidcnl, Mrs.

D. W. Davis, presided. Mrs. Higiuitt, of the Primary School, alkcd of the need found for letter lunches throughout the school.

hc explained the- plan being follciw- '(1 this year, through the cooperation the parenlb, different organizations Hid philanthropic individuals. This consisted mainly of serving milk, addition to lunch brought from ionic. The Association wns disked to aid in this work, too. In response, a vote was given to take over one case ind to pay the cost of un ice chest. It was "also voted to hold the nn- Hial supper for the Primary School it an earlier date than usual, so that the supplies, requested in the uulgct cuuld be obtained nnd used as soon in the year as -passible.

Mrs. Frederick B. Nuttle was appointed chairman of a committee to set the anil to arrange for tho supper. Prof. Willis, of the High School, expressed regret at the poor attendance of the P.

T. A. and suggested a better program with which to attract a larger house. The program suggested was as follows: The first 30 minutes to be given over to business; the next minutes to be in tho way of musical entertainment; the last hour to be over to letting the parents know what is going on in school--this division of the program to bo carried out through an able speaker who is an authority "on his lastly, a conference and soc ial period. Such a program was accepted as well thought out and quite worthwhile, and a much larger gathering of parents and friends is expected at the.November meeting.

It was voted that refreshments be discontinued for the next four months. The High School budget was prc- together with ways and means for covering the same. Each request of this budget seemed necessary and practicable and will, doubtless, Lc taken care of by the.P. T. A.

Years Ago L'D From Thu Journal of 25 AKU Tliin Week. for Thc Storm-Lashed Southland. A Porto Hican, a lad living in little mountain town in thc centra part of thc Island, pictured thc plight of the recent hurricane survivors ii a loiter received this week by friends in Caroline. In his newly acquired English he made clear some of tilt- pitiable conditions: "You don't know what a strong storm occurred in For to Rico. It has been thc greatcs ever seen.

All farms, houses, thc plaza and everything has been de stroycd. The river overflew and houses near it were carried out. Man; families are living like animals in tli theatre and city hall. Everybody fee pity for so many babies crying fo food and shelter. That has been tcr riblc.

Classes were opened again, 1m many pupils have to stay out fron schools now because everything thcj had was lost and they have no money We are not going to have any Sai Miguel Feast and there is no moncj for the coming elections! Poor Port Uico! Felipe.Cortes, Utuado, P. Like large areas in other West In and in Florida, Porto Rico todaj appears in beggarly comparison whci and from statements issued at the thc i i i an offices of the Dcl-Mar-Va Eastern tjl Da Shore Association and by Carl H. Monsees, of the South Ocean City Development who approached thc Weather Bureau concerning this matter when in the employ of the Association, a Peninsula-wide effort will be made towards securing this service. It is probable that lenders in each of thc 14 counties will be asked to bring pressure to hear on their representatives at Washington, so that the necessary appropriation may be secured. The need of a weather bureau station in Dcl-Mar-Va is emphasized as at present none exists between Norfolk and Atlantic City.

Because 1 of the agricultural nnd fishing interests of the Peninsula, and the section extending directly inland in the Middle North Atlantic States, it is said by all familiar with this subject to he a vital necessity. Since the matter was first introduced more than a year ago, Del-Mar-Va Association officials have been active and now plan to request the representatives from Delaware, Maryland and Virginia, at Washington, to advocate the plan. Letters from several influential business concerns and private imlividualB have already been addressed to the Congressmen and U. S. Senators urging their support in the effort to secure the appropriation necessary.

Vermin. Mrs. Alice H. Ross is observing the fortieth anniversary of her inception into the teaching profession. Her efforts have been so well appreciated by the people and the State and County Boards of Education that she has been offered teaching positions in every county in the State ncvtr been without the offer of a school or schools to teach during the entire two bcore years.

Mr. RusHell Clouscr, of California, seen by a visitor on the Feast Day Utuado's patron saint, San Miguel, i few years ago: "Motoring late in th day up in thc mountains to Lares on thc ribbon-like highway which i a series of hairpins and horseshoes twists ami contortions, thc sccncrj was glorious. There was twilight ove the mountains and pink sunlight ove their tops. The ridges farther awaj were a deep smoky blue with white clouds hanging over.

With ev try turn of thc road astounding dis tanccs and marvelous views sprea before always the little ston city, tucked cozily in among soft blue mountains, growing bluer and mistie as llic'bunsct waned."

It has been learned recently thai a former Denton boy wns chosen us a member of Commander Byrd's polar expedition and left with the base ship in September. EILurt Thuwlcy, son of Mr. and Mrs. E. F.

Thawley, joined the expedition and although signed to an important post his parents, while proud of the fact, were very modest about the affair and hud not given it any The fact that Elbert wns with the polar party was brought to light by the L. D. Caulk Company, of Milford, where his parents now live. The Caulk Company examined tho teeth ami gave the men dental treatment before they left New York. Elbert, who is 30 years of age, was born in Denton and attended a school in Virginia.

He is assistant engineer on one of the base ships and expects, to away IS months to 2 years. He has been especially trained for this work, Jiav- ing spent about four years at sen For many months he was assistant engineer on the steamship Leviathan, and at one time was engineer with the Eastern Shore Gas and Electric Company, at Laurel. The Great Ncckcr. "The Great Neckcr," the comedy of modern flapper love, with Taylor Holmes, will come to the Maryland Theatre, Baltimore, for one week, commencing Monday night, October 8, with the usual matinees on Wednesday and Saturday. Following successful engagements in New York and Philadelphia, "The Great Necker" opened in Boston, where it was hilariously received for weeks with the same enthus- The ptay comes to Baltimore eight iasm.

from this Boston engagement. It tells of a middle-aged heartbreaker, who, while engaged in the task of persuading a prudish woman cinema censor to pass a questionable film, falls in love with her wisely-innocent daughter. The girl agrees to marry him because of his wealth and to escape parental discipline, although she is smitten with his ukelcle playing, Varsity Drag, collegiate tailored nephew. By the third act, the modern Don Juan discovers that life will be much happier for him if he permits the youngsters to wed, and accepts the affection of a friendly and comely interior decorator. The play was written by Elmer Harris and was originally produced on the Coast, later successfully presented in New York, Chicago and Philadelphia by Chamberlain Brown.

Mr. Brown has surrounded Taylor Holmes with one of the best casts seen here this season, featuring Marjorie Gateson, James B. Carson nnd Hope Brown. Others in the large cast include Doris Underwood, Clifford Dunstan, Charles W. Homer, Ralph Simone, Valerie Valaire, Jack Jordan, Elmer Ladd and Gordon Westcott.

A Mighty Theme And A Great Moral Lesson. There was once an idea prevalent that only simple minded or weak willed girls became delinquent, but the fallacy of this idea is now quite generally recognized. In fact the morons, white slavers, "Good Time Charlies" and "Foxes" do not trouble with unattractive girls. The more beautiful and spirited, the more desirable and worthwhile a girl may be, the more eagerly she is pursued. And the brightest girls are often the ones who seek most eagerly to probe the mysteries of life.

The sad finish that often overtakes these gay little adventurers, who pit their puny strength against the mighty forces of life, is the thome of "The Road To Ruin," which will be shown at the Temple Theatre, Dover, on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday, October '8, 9, 10, and 11. This picture, which is intended for adult consumption, is a very forcible dramatization of an actual case of Juvenile Delinquency and is startlingly frank in its handling of a very delicate question. Helen Foster, an exquisite little blonde, renders a remarkable characterization as the school girl who goes astray, while the work of Virginia Roye and Grant Withers is also noteworthy. Others in the cast are Tommy Carr, Florence Turner, Charles Miller, Al Rader and Ed Dunn. Gov.

Smith Fought On Account of Religion. Some people are fighting Gov. Smith because he is a Catholic. Why did their forefathers come to Maryland? To live under a Catholic rulur because he was the man fair-minded enough to think people should Have the right to worship God as his conscience dictated. Were those rulers under him appointed with regard to religion? The way some people talk how can they endure the thought of living in Maryland? The Pope did not come over to help Lord Baltimore rule, nor were boys and girls shut up arkl made to become Catholics, as some of the ignorant ones are telling, even to children in high schools.

Nothing dreadful has happened in New York and Gov. Smith has made a good ruler for four terms. I see no better way to judge the future than by the past. Ignorant people who spread such lies have no religion or they would be afraid to do it, for as they judge they will be judged. Let them read Matt.

Do the Protestant Churches want all to be classed as the ministers and Sunday School teachers have gone wrong and took others with them? Why take the outcasts from the Catholic churches nnd say all are like that? Some people display the bitterness of the dark ages. What are some of us going to do if we are ever lucky enough to get to Heaven? St.

Peter was the founder of the Catholic church and the Pope is supposed to sit in his chair. These are Christ's words in Mutt. 10:18 and I say unto thee, that thou art Peter, and upon this rock will I build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. And I will give unto thee the keys of the kingdom of Heaven nnd whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth shall be bound in Heaven, and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth shall be loosed in Heaven." What will they do when they knock and St. Peter comes to the gate? Tell him they wouldn't vote for several good men because they were believers in his church? What credit will they get? Parts of the U.

S. Constitution were taken from the rules laid down by a Catholic ruler for Maryland, that men might have religious liberty. What church sent the largest number of people to support the flag during the late war? When trouble comes who is going to refuse help and comfort because it is from Catholic? What one church gives more to sufferers in any disaster? This is not the first time the people have displayed bigotry, trying to down good man because he was a Catholic. The Wise Judge will give them the reward He will give the Let them rend, study Luke and Matt. I was born and raised a Protestant, but I always liked to see the elephant from both sides nnd believe in fair RESOURCES.

There has been paid in for the Hurricane Relief Fund up to Wednesday noon, whiph has been forwarded to Washington as soon as received. Over two-thirds of this amount has been turned in from Pcdcrnlsburg. On account of sickness, two of our towns have no representatives, nnd we, therefore, will appreciate it very much if those willing to aid would send their check made out to the American National Red Cross to Mrs. J. Spencer Lapham, at Goldsboro.

We wish to heartily thank those who have already sent us checks. Wo wish, also, to thank the County Press for their courtesy in aiding us to so thoroughly advertise our requests throughout the neighborhoods that arc hard for us to reach. Mrs. J. 8.
