The school board feels that the teachers should be paid in accord ance to the job they are doing. If, however, their pay is cut the term may not be curtailed. Ancient (3 Mayas Kept Thanksgiving Day HEN football fans turn out for the Thanksgiving games they will perhaps realize that they are conforming with an old American custom, but do they know how old that custom is? asks a writer in the St. Louis Post-Dis patch. Thanksgiving football games were instituted in America about 2000 B. C. The custom began among the ancient Mayas, who, al though they did not eat mince pie or sit in concrete stadiums, did dine on turkey and did set aside a day on which they offered up the first fruits of the harvest sea son, feasted and played, or watched a ball game in a stone-walled en closure. The department of middle Amer ican research at Tulane university has discovered that the Mayan games were like ours in many re spects. Just as fans today travel for miles to see the Thanksgiving games, so did our predecessors on this confinent journey across the land, on foot or horseback, to Chichen-Itza, holy city of the Mayas, to view the holiday spec tacle. In his description of the Mayan game, Maurice Reis, on the staff of the department of middle Amer ican research at Tulane, says: “As it began when Rome ruled the waves and Frenchmen wore bear skins as their Sunday best, football wasn’t just football. That is, the ball wasn’t kicked with the foot and the scores were produced by persuading the ball to pass through a perpendicular ring high on a stone wall.” When the thousands of pilgrims who came every year arrived at Chichen - Itza, they offered sacri- W Over the players' entrance to the center tennis court at Wimbledon, England, is a quotation from Kip ling’s “If:” “If you can meet with triumph and disaster, and treat those two imposters just the same Companionship, Plus Adjustments Is Far Better Than Loneliness IN EVERY family, whether little - or large, and however small or ipacious the dwelling may be, there are times when conflicts arise because of unwanted con tacts. Some special place may be desired above all others by one, or possibly two, in conference and a second or a third person coming in and wanting that particular room also is a cause of dissension. There may be no lack of affection between the people, but a tem porary ruffling of personalities which is disturbing. When living quarters are congested, these occasions arise frequently, but they are not limited to such con ditions. There are these con- vergencies, with their annoying discords, regardless of space, or the lack of it, and numbers of persons, or the fewness of them. It would appear to be partly a similarity of tastes as well as the popularity of the spot, what ever it is, that was an element of the magnetic force drawing the people together. Transient Dissension. It is true that instances are rare in which such trouble is more than a passing dissension. But this is enough to set the persons in bad humors for a few moments anyway, unless one or more of them has enough understanding of the situation to smooth others, or has a keen sense of humor, which sense is like oil to ma chinery in keeping things running without friction. Congeniality. It should be remembered that congeniality is one cause for this convergence of persons. The same things are liked, the same im pulses are present, and enjoyment and discord are both caused by much the same things. Each of these persons is drawn to the lame things and to the same places, and so naturally meet in the same room in the home, or the identical spot. If there is the desire to be alone, resentment is stirred by the presence of an other. It is at such times that tact and kindliness are needed. I am assuming that love is not lack ing. Without this essential ele ment in home life, there will be The Ball Wasn’t Kicked With the Foot in That Game. WHAT ? YOUR BOY SCOUTS USE MY POND fices to the earth gods in an im pressive thanksgiving ceremony led by the ruler. “The earth gods,” says Alredo Barrera Vasquez, of the staffs of the Mexican National Museum and the National University of Mexico, who is of Maya descent, “are called the Four Bacabs and are repre sented as supporting the four cor ners of the earth. Each god has an appropriate color: red for the east where the sun rises, black for the west where it sinks into dark ness, yellow for the warm south and white for the cold north. Yum K’ax, Lord of the Forest, resides at the center of the universe and is characterized by the colors blue and green.” The Thanksgiving ceremonies still take place in some parts of Mexico today, although most of the old cus toms are dominated by the Catholic influence. The name of the principal god of the harvest is lost. However, we have many representations of him on ancient monuments. He is always depicted as being young and handsome, symbolic of life and growth. From his head grows maize instead of hair. FOR THEIR . SKATING RACES? NOT! AND THAT'S , FINAL discord anywhere and at any time, if not, indeed, at all times. Loneliness. When harmony is desired, and clashes of temperaments of those caused by such things as are under discussion today, exist, it is well to bring oneself up with a round turn by thinking of the loneliness that would be felt if we did not have our family about us. During absences from home, or when one is left there when others are away, the realization of what it means to be alone and also together, creeps into the mind and it is warmed by the very thought of companionship of dear ones.
