The spoken werj is lost; the printed word remains. Our Country Right or Wrong SHORTCHANGED GENERATION Marvina Lindsay, columnist of The Wash- ington Post, doesn't mince words in the dis- cussion of teacher shortages this'year. Says she.: "Communties, faced with their closed or overcrowded schoolrooms, their substandard teachers, will at last have to take stock of themselves. What are they 'sacrificing' for the schooling of their children? About 1.4 per cent of the national income-while Great Brit- ain spends 2 per cent, Soviet Russia around 13 per cent. For what are their state treasuries -now generally solvent-exspending funds? Roads first, then public health, then education. "What are they doing to attract teachers? Paying them less than the garage mechanics who take care of their cars. Making drudges out of them in community chores. Letting el- derly school boards and nosey Mrs. Grundys direct their social life, failing to show them the appreciation and honor for which their souls are starving.' "The basis of solving the teacher problem lies in shocking- Americans into realizing the national peril of shortchanging educationally today's children. They need to see that the. teaching task is so important that superlien and superwomen should be developed to handle it." It now comes out that army dentists pulled 16,500,000 teeth since Pearl Harbor. We had gone on supposing it was drilling that got the' GI down. "Little Boy Blue, come blow your horn-" Petrillo's not looking and the cow's in the corn. 'STARDUST and MOONSHINE 'Butter, butter, who's got the but- ter? Seems to be no par- ticular limit on it when any of 6our local grocery stores get in a few pounds. Checking on the price we find that Store A gets 92c per pound, Store B 98c, Store C $1.00, and Store D 85.c. Perhaps that 85-cent butter isn't up to the butterfat content of the $1.00 per pound product, but a buck a pound for butter! Wow!, And it is quite peculiar, but when there's butter on the market the oleomar- garine disappears. Of course, oleo will keep longer than butter . Could be? Harry Saunders, relaxing iu the sulphurous fumes of the mineral- 'baths at Hot Sprinks, Ark., writes and encloses a telephone call slip, saying: "I have heard various tele- ;phone'girls pronounce it in many and varied ways, but I think the attached takes the prize insofar as spelling 'Apalachicola" is con- cerned." .. And here's the way the phone girl spelled it: "A'.- alachizola, Fla." Oh, well, perhaps some of our Florida phone gals would get mixed' up on spell- ing some Arkansas town names, PLENTY OF RED TAPE In report No. 10, 78th congress, of a com- mittee headed by then Senator Truman, this observation was made: "It is the job of gov- ernment to devise rules of the road, but not to tell the driver where he must travel." That principle is as sound now as on the day some years ago when it was written. The whole system. of democratic government de- pends upon government being an umpire, not a player in the game. But it is apparent to anyone that government has moved away from that principle and has made itself player as well as umpire. The agonizing delays in reconversion to peacetime production are largely 'the conse- quence of too much government. Anyone in Port St. Joe, or anywhere else, who has tried to start a business, build a home, or buy a piece of war surplus equipment knows what happens. The red tape is in abudance and everything else is scarce. NOT FOR QUITTERS John Wanamaker, one of America's most famous and successful business men, is credited with this sound advice: "If there is one enterprise on earth that a quitter should leave alone, it is advertising. Advertising does not jerk-it pulls. It begins very gently at first, but the pull is steady. It increases day by day and year by year until it exerts an irresistible power." Collections of federal excise taxes on motor cars, tires, radios, sporting goods, refrigera- tors, theater tickets, night club checks, busi- ness machines. and scores of other items, are showing a marked increase, which points to a flourishing state of business. VWill somebody kindly impart this information to the droopy and sharply discouraged New York stock mar- ket?-Kansas City Star. "Twoi New Cases of Polo Here," says a headline in a recent issue of the Panama City NeXs-[1erald. W\e new that 'golf was catch- ing, having had a severe attack from which we have never quite recovered, but we never knew that polo came under the same head of communicable diseases. WVe wish we could catch up on our worry- ing about serious matters long enough to spend a few minutes worrying; about some- thing trivial. Keep smiling-and buy U S Savings Bonds. such as Bodicaw, Chickalah, Oga- maw, Hiwass'e, Subiaco ands Wab- baseka. Over at the Jaycee meeting Mon- day night when George Tapper ap- pointed Basil E. Kenney as a mem- ber of the committee to see about making concrete street markers, Bas chirped: "Put a lumberman on a concrete committee!" And Doec Norton: "I hope to be able to learn to fly some day, and I'd like to see the Jaycees sponsor an air- port." And here we thought all along that Doc could already pilot his flying orange crate. .. And Horace Soule argued long' and lus- tily in a vain endeavor to turn down the job of vice-chairman of the committee on securing St. Joe as a terminal for the Apalachicola- Chattahoochee waterway, stating he wouldn't have the time. . Yep, it probably would, interfere - For Those Who Think of Appearance Run-down shoes make you look sloppy and unattractive. Better keep yours in repair and well polished.
