MOTTO: "Therefore, all things ye would that men should do to
you, do ye even so to them."—Matt. 7:12.
SLOGAN: Golden, the ideal rural school, where everybody is
somebody.
Thought for Today.
Think of the ills from which
you are exempt.—Joubert.
Editorial—The New Deal.
Something new was experi-
enced in our school last Thurs-
day. The same thing occurred
Tn many other schools of the
country for the first time last
week. During twenty years of
service in the Wood County
schools I have never seen the
like before. It marked the be-
ginning of a new era. It is a
part of the New Deal. School
children, poor, undernourished,
underprivileged, and anemic
children were fed at govern-
ment expense for the first time
in this county so far as this
writer knows. This is as it
should be. Since it is essential
that every citizen go to the aid
of our government when need-
ed, it is just as essential that
the government go to the aid
of its distressed citizens. Such
a paternalistic policy of the
government toward its citizens
was unheard of prior to 1933.
If the New Deal means part-
time work for boys and girls
to remain in high school and
college; if it means building
school houses for bankrupt
communities; if it means giv-
ing young men work in re-
building the soil and reforest-
ing the forests; if it means
employing people who are un-
able to find employment thru
private enterprise, and if it
means feeding unfortunate and
helpless children, then, by the
grace of Almighty God, may
the New Deal live forever.
—Mr. Simmons.

Freshman Fake.
It seems the freshmen have
a new club, sponsored by Mrs
Havnes, our genius in English.
Each Friday there will be a 30-
minute program, and we are to
excuse a few classes. Our club
has no name, as we feel none
of them already mentioned will
be appropriate.
In general science we are
studying crayfish and parrots.

A number of sophomore have

missed them very much.

Our Regrets.
One of our most prominent
students withdrew from our
school last week to enter Min-
eola High School. She was Amy
Lou Turner. She was very ac-
tive and a good sport, and she
took part in several of our
athletic events and we feel
sure she would be a great help
in the county meet. We regret
losing her but we feel that
Mineola will give her a wel-
come.

Paderewski Back in Politics
One Out of 37
Americans On
Public Payroll
Ignace Jan Paderewski (center), world famous pianist, who has re-
eI^rf? p£ ,ca* ,^e as President of the Polish national council, chats
with Mr. Rackewicz (left), president of the Polish republic, and General
bikorsky (right), premier and war minister. This was first meeting of the
council in France since war began.
One oui of every thirty-seven
persons in the United States is
on the public payroll—Federal,
State, county, or municipal. This
does not include persons on re-
lief or drawing any form of as-
sistance from public funds.
U. S. Treasury Department
figures, recently made public,
show that the number of pub-
lic employes totaled 3,788,616
in 1938, the latest year for
which complete records from all
divisions of government are
available. Their aggregate sal-
ary was $5,508,874,000.
In addition, the Federal Gov-
ernment paid out $67,000,000 to
temporary and substitute post-
office employes. Retired and re-
serve civilian and military per-

He takes 'a stitch in time'
on Texas telephones
Each day this Texas telephone man
flips keys and watches sensitive in-
dicators as he searches for a clue to
possible trouble on Texas telephones.
He fully appreciates the wisdom of
a atitch in time in finding and fixing
troubles—or weak spots that might
result in trouble. That is one way we
safeguard your telephone service in
Texas. And one result is that despite
the increasing complexity of telephone
equipment, telephone customers re-
port troubles on their telephones only
half as often as they lid 10 years ago.
A stitch in time saves nine. These
words in action contribute their full
share to the accuracy, dependability,
and low cost of your telephone service.
