Heads Join on Relief deal with t\VO aspects of educational relief, viz., the vocational and cultural. It is likely that short vocational and semi-vocational courses will be ouULned, one of those probably partaking of the nature of household mechanics both for men and women. rws would be helpful in preparing persons to give satisfactory service when opportunity affords in and around Lhe home. By such means both those who employ and those who are employed would be mutually benefited. "As'to the cultural aspect of the program, it may be greatly varied, including such features as lectures and discussions on general educational subjects, socials, dances, dramas, operas, participation in athletics and other physical education activities, etc. Such a program would help to divert the minds of unemployed and employed alike from thoughts and forebodings of depression, and would tend not only to cultural development but also to the general improvement Without doubt, such of morale. courses and activities would be an important part of a program of educational relief. ''It is my intention to call the An· nual L;onvention of Public School Superintendents about the middle of January. One of the important ques~ tions then to be considered will be the educauonal relief program. I have called this matter to your attention now that both the districts which are organized and those which may still be unorganized at that time may be in a position to give thoughtful consideration and helpful suggestions on this very important part of the con~ vention program."

A Dash of Economy ~----------------------------------------JI) Man•a Wisdom at Fault Over "Puzzle" of Life E'·er since the dawn of recorded tbought wise men and great thinkers have tried to solve the puzzle o! Ute. Whence? Why? Whither? And all sorts ot answers hn ve been given. The great Greek dramatist Sophocles said: •The best of life ls not to be born." The poet Dante said: "Llviog Is a race to death." One philosopher called life .. a fallen tear wUich the earth drinks up," and another said: ''To fight, and ever to recommence the fight, ts llfe ... Life has been called a comedy and a tragedy, a song and a dirge, a prog ress and a decay. It has been likened to a stormy and uncharted sea, to fiction and to running water. It bas been dubbed an illusion, a cheat, and a 4 traud. The old Roman playwright Plautus caught one glimpse ot tl1e truth when he sald: "To Uve well, live today"; and Balzac was not far out when he sald: "Llfe ts what one's sentlments make lt."-London TJt-Bits. Irish City of Galway Linked With Columbus One of the most fascinating of Irish towns ls Galway, capital oJ' Conne.ught, tamous for the pride of tts merchant princes and its fishermen from the '.rwelftb century; and traditionally linked w1tb Amertca, tor the legend ts that Christopher Columbus visited Galway before setting out on his voyage and attended mass in the Church of St. Nicholas, founded ln 1320 by the Normans, and 1n use today. Here Columbus Is reported to have met Rice De CulYey, a Gnlwayma.n, who joined Columbus' men as a sailor, so that It was early known In Galway that the expedition ho.d been n success, and St. Nicholas' bells rang out to celebrate the discovery of the New world. Galway had a monopoly ot Spanish trade Ln those days, and the arched doorways and patios ot Galway houses still remain e.n evidence ot Spanish lnfioence. Aab "Queen of the Wood•" The oak is spoken of as "the Monarch ot the Woods," but the ash tree ia "Queen ot the Woods." says the Montreal Herald. Ancient stories tell that the gods held their council beneath an ash tree, on the topmost branch ot which sat an eagle, watch· lng the way of the world while a squirrel ran up and down the tru-nk, carrying messages trom the bird to the gods. The ash is one or the eastest trees to recognize with its straight trunk, the bark a pnle gray color, its lower branches growing straight out trom the trunk, curving gracefully to the sky. The tips are quite di!Terent from all other tree-tips. each ending 1n a stout gray twig, slightly flattened at the tip, and beyond this flattened tip two 111nck buds. with smaller buds at the sides. Even when other trees have pot on thelr spring dress o! green, the ash tree stands bare. Weather Lore People began "speaking of the weather" a long tfme ago. The first sclenttfic treatise on the weather, says the United States weather bureau, was written by Aristotle mQre than 300 years before the ChrlstiaQ. ern. The weather bureau library, which Is the largest meteorological collection ln the world, has a bfg book on the weather by Albertus Magnus, printed in 1494, and a facsimile of a weather journal kept by Rev. William Merle or Eng· land, who recorded the weather day by day trom 1337 to 1344. The first weather records In America, eo far as known~ were kept by Rev. Johann Campanius, who recorded the weather each day ln the colony ot New Sweden near the present site of Wilmington. Del., tor the years 1644 and 164:;. • FTER Christmas comes a dash of economy. That happy holiday loosened your purse strings, if you're norma~ but New Year's day always brings resolutions to balance the budget all next year. That is all right, but where shall we start? How about the kitchen department? You doubtless feasted heavily during the holidays and practically disregarded the cost. Is it possible to eat more economically without sacrificing nourishment, enjoyment and health? Yes, it is, if you know bow. But only an experienced housewife, or a trained dietitian who has studied the subject can tell just what economies are both real for your purse and really better for your health than more expensive foods. A housewife and a dietitian were not only consulted on this subject, but they were induced to consult with each other, and heu are some of the dishes they devise<l Saving Salada' Fruil Cole Slaw: This is a salad which will serve six people and will not cost much more than a quarter.

Model Town a Failure Pullman, which is now a part of Chicago, was founded In 1880 by George Mortimer Pullman, the Inventor ot the PullmQll car and founder of the Pullman Palace Car company. He attempted to make tt a model town, and even the public works were the property of the company and managed as a business Investment. Popular discontent with the conditions led to the annexation ot Pullman to Chicago in 1889, but unt11 1910 the corporation held most ot the property. Ethiopian.

CRANE of electric power, which has apparently been singled out for an attack, ts, in reality, an artifice leading up to the real issue," says Martin Insull. "The real issue is a challenge directed against fundamental national principles and traditions of ownership and operation of industries by the people as individuals." It is an effort to put government into the electric power and light business on the plea of lowered rates and better service. And the staggering operating deficits which would result would be covered by appropriations extracted from· the pockets of the taxpayers. "This agitation for public ownership of utilities is being pressed in certain quarters as a "cure-all" for present conditions. Unless nipped in lhe bud by a straight-thinking, courageous citizenry, our politicians will plunge us into a hell-hole of governgovernment-operated ment-owned, utilities which will spell complete disaster. ''The American public must be aroused to the socialization of industry which is in the offing. The railroads are being hampered; the grain and cotton trades are threatened with extermination; public utilities of all sorts are having their troubles with nagging legislation and meddling politicians. There is a growing demand to have the government do this or do that, without considering the fact that it all haa to be paid for. Taxes are constantly on the increase, and government. in business will still further add to the tax burden. "There is no spiirt of 'Live and Let Live' in government today. Hampered on all sides by restraining legislation and bureaucratic regulation industry of all kinds, big and little, is being crowded to the wall by confiscatory taxation.

Farrell, president of the United States Steel corporation, and certainly the Golden Rule is not being followed by the federal government it invades the realms of private business, either as a competitor or by confiscatory legislation or taxation.
