TOWN" at You Believe in America Many years ago the townspeople of a small village in the Old Country held a great celebration in the public square. For years there had been no war and they had worked hard to raise Their children had grown strong and healthy. good crops. And for this they were thankful. What better way, the mayor had asked, could they express their thankfulness than by celebrating together? So he proclaimed a holiday, asking each person to pour a bottle of wine Into the cavernous cask that stood near the village fountain. This they would share, to- gether. When this great day arrived, there was a man who filled his bottle with water. There would he so much wine, he thought, a little water would not be noticed. He was a good man and he meant no harm. So he stood In line with the others and poured his bottle of water Into the cask. When it came time for the ceremony, the mayor stood next to the cask and spoke fine words of their happiness. But when he turned the heavy wooden spigot to drink his toast, nothing but water ran Into his cup. Everyone had thought a "little water would not be noticed. This parable, of course, has an obvious moral. Today we say "let George do it." It Is the attitude that "someone else" will do something that should be done. Today the Red Cross is doing a big job for the America in which you and I live. They are not doing It alone, nor can they continue without the support of every American who belie res in this great work. If you believe in giving food, clothing and shelter to the thousands plunged ,'nto suffering and despair each year by natural disaster, then you believe in the Red Cross, Or, if you believe in an org Fzatlon which works with our reserve of growing militiry forces in maintaining nation-wid- e nurses and medical technicians, and which helps keep the morale of service men where it should be, then you believe in the Red Cross. If you believe it is a good thing to train hundreds of thousands eai h year to intelligently give First Aid to accident victims, then ou believe in the Red Cross. And, if you believe in an organization vhose volunteers give their life's blood that others may live, thei you believe in the Red Cross. These are the reasons why more than 7,000,000 American men and women last year believed in, and joined the Red Cross. In a fw days the 1940 Red Cioss Roll Call for memberships will come to a dose. Every American who is able to do so You should have his name on this roll. It is not compulsory. really dont have to join the Bed Cross. You can shrug your shoulders ke the man who poured f bottle of wati r into the wine cak. But if you believe in America, vou believe in the Red Cross and you w iil want to join.

The first twelve weeks have gone so rapidly one can hardly believe It. Report Cards will be out on Monday. Now we must sit down to give each student a mark which will indicate to him and his parents our estlmtae of his accomplishment during the quarter. How humble I feel when I am confronted with this task. It is my opinion that no power on earth can measure the good or harm that has been done to a childs personality in the approximately 360 hours he has been in formal class activity. So far we are making few attempts to measure the countless hours spent In aitivities hut no one can deny that some of the most invaluable development is gained in debating, dramatics, si hool paper, athletics, and other related activities. E. IL Terry has spent a great deal of time studying various kinds of report cards and the revised report which we have is a result of that study. Remember, two years ago we marked students simply E, S. and U indicating excellent, satisfactory and unsatisfactory. That system itself was an attempt to get away from the old "ABCD method with its many evils. The recent revisions add a "P (passing) to the list for students whose work is not satisfactory but from whom the teacher cannot honestly withhold credit. The finest addition is a list of conditionals which show WHY a student receives the indicated report. The teacher marks a plus or minus by the notation attendance, preparation, participation, general conduct, general attitude, or any other element he may see fit to add. Now, at least, students and parents ran know the basis for the teacher's judgment. Everyone agrees that the method is a great improvement over the old one. However, like any method of scoring human beings, it Is (it must be) not infallible. Simple negative criticism Is easy to give and of little value. However any suggestion as to ways of further improving this svstem will be acI cepted giadly by the school am glad to see that Orem is again going to produce a Christmas rendition of Handels "Messiah.

Several fences have been built w'thout any regard to this ordinance which was passed in May, 1938, and great danger exists to human life as well as to animals.
