EDITORIAL EDUCATION The country is going wild over education. Many who receive it, maybe quit the farm and start out to hunt an easy job. There are not easy jobs for everybody, and no one has to have a complete ed- ucation to loaf or steal. Yet it is a rare thing that you ever heard of an uneducated bank or train robber. SHALL WE PRINT THE TRUTH? “Don’t ask the editor to leave it out of the paper, if something un- pleasant happens. Better give him full particulars yourself and ask to print them in the first edit- ion. Such a procedure brings any matter to a head at once. It cre- ates a buzz for a day or two and then is forgotten. But if it is kept out of the papers it festers like an old sore, is whispered back and forth over the backyard fence, be- comes worse with each telling until finally current opinion has the affair painted twice as black as it really was. Publicity, like sun- shine, is the best cure for many things. TIRING OF POLITICS From general appearances, peo- ple must be tiring of politics. We wouldn't know what else would bring about present conditions. In Mount Joy there is but one contest to date while the one party here did not even nominate a single can- didate for any of the boro offices. At Elizabethtown the situation is far worse than here. Not one can- didate on either the Republican or Democratic ticket, filed nomination papers for the offices of bungess or council. . It is quite discouraging to learn that practically no one is interested in the offices whereupon depends the welfare and progress of a com- munity. THE BOOTLEGGING WOMAN What to do with the bootlegging womon is puzzling some commun- ities, and it is a fact that there are women who engage in this unlaw- ful calling. In general they plead their sex as an ameliorating fact, but a judge in Little Rock, Ark. takes the position that hereafter he will see no difference between the woman who bootlegs and the man who commits the same act. He has come to the point where he thinks that no clemency should be shown a bootlegger because she happens to be a woman. This magistrate says that he is tired of women appearing before him and begging for mercy simply because they are women. Hereafter he is to put them in the same category with men. There is in reality no reason for making any distinction i SPORTING HILL Mr. and Mrs. J. B.

Ee Ii begin to investigate the why and how of it, to punish any negligence that might be discovered and to make sure that such a trage ly would not happen again. In other words, when tragedy is brought to a sharp, dramatic focus, we notice it and do something about it. But when it is spread out we fail to notice it. Thus, while the death of 12 child- ren in a single accident would stir us profoundly, we do not even rea- lize that that many youngsters are killed every day of the year by traffic accidents in United States. During the past year, nearly 5,- 000 children under 15 years of age were killed in traffic. In addition, children under that age were in- jured at the rate of more than 400 a day. And yet the nation accepts the situation placidly. There isn’t much of an outcry about it. We don’t have city and state commissions holding meetings to see where the blame lies. At the very most, we only caution our youngsters not to play in the streets and to be care- ful at crossings. Perhaps if we could see the de- tails of these accidents more close- ly we would be more aroused by them. Picture your own tance. lad, for in- with a ball.

LABOR DAY Labor Day is one of the most important of all holidays. It is a day set apart as a tribute and no class deserves wider recog- |! nition than those who toil.

The women at home who are at the head of a household and are en- gaged in the responsibility of car- ing for the family belong to the highest ranks of those who toil. 4 They deserve a tribute of the most generous and enduring kind. For men “work from sun to sun,.but a woman's work is never done.” And so Labor Day as a tribute to labor is a tribute to all who are in- dustrious and who honestly, ener- getically, faithfully and zealously apply themselves to the task in hand, Whatever the solution may be, it a is past time that we found out.
