AMATEUR SCHOOL
Giles L French
Moro is in a peculiar position
in regard to school teachers. More
than half the teachers are local
people' who Mve here, or near
here, anyway. Most of them are
housewives who have bpen lured
out of the kitchens to teach the
young because teachers are pret
ty scarce nowdays, along with
nearly everything else.
Because the system seems to
work as well as any other the
idea occurs that perhaps it might
be expanded stHl further. Why
hire any one from outside the
county or city to do the teach
ing? We could undoubtedly find
men and women who could
teach any subject ordinarily given
in the schools—and they might
do a pretty good job of i t
As an . example, Merle Becket,
the banker, is teaching book
keeping. He probably knows more
about it than most teachers who
instruct in that subject. Many
women could be found whose
knowledge of Home Economics,
or whatever they cail cooking
in high school, would be superior
to that of college graduates who
have nevpr been left alone with a
cook stove.
Our artisans would feel hurt
if it was intimated that they
couldn't saw a board or thread a
pipe better than a school teacher
and probably one or two could-
be found with knowledge of the
more abstract subjects. Of geo
graphers there is a plenty since
the young men have been all ov
er the world. English and history
might bother us some but find
ing instructors V ould not be im
possible.
If professionals cannot be found
there Is nothing to prevent us
from going right ahead with
school. The method w e have al Ever play chess? It’s a great
ready developed by necessity;
there is no reason why we coul<^ game! One of the strongest friend
ships I know of started with a game

THE WORLD OWES
US A LIVING
Every once in a while one
hears that the world owes us a
living. Sometimes it is quoted
with assurance that leads to the
belief that the speaker believes
It himself. Maybe some do. The
usual answer—that one «must do
his own collecting, falls to en
tirely satisfy.
As a matter of pure fact, the
world owes us nothing, not even
a sunny day. We come bawling
and brawling onto this earth
without a request from any offi
cial source. By the time we’re
old enough to eprn all of our liv
ing w e are indebted to school
district, county, state and nation
for more than we will probably
earn for ten years.
Talk about the world owing us
a living; we owe the 'world an
apology.

our town, and a man named Dalton
Barnes, in England.
They’ve never seen each other,
never met. But for the past eight
years they’ve been playing chess
by mail together — Dad puzzling
over Dalton’s latest letter, while he
■ends a chart of his next move to
England:
chessboard. And the Englishman
writes him that he does the same.
“You know, it’s almost as if we
shared a glass of beer together,
too!” says Dad contentedly.
From where I sit, you can talk
about diplomacy and foreign pol
icy, but it’6 often those little things
— like a game of chess or a glass
of beer— that can make for toler
ance and understanding . . . be

tween neighbors here at home!
Dad always thinks best with a
