This organization tells the state legisla- ture tllat every county in the state with but one exception will have empty cash registers and be forced to go on a warrant basis in 1951 mfless relief is given by slate help. Counties are now prohibited by state law from increasing aSSeSS- ments on taxable pro0erty.

DeMolays, Rainbows. Some have insisted that the more successful a city-government sponsored pro- gram of this nature becomes the more incentive tilere would be to relax parental discipline and con- trol over children. WhlqleVel' .ve ttlt'U over tO .:ome.ne else (city, colnlty, state) ore' has)(' human responsibilities, (Hie €I vvhi(,h is training O,,lI* OWll chihlreh, tiles we automatically for(oil our fr:Hlchise to assert our influeLlce on that wbich we give up- our children. Sone wonder whetber or not Shelton is creating a recreation pattern that will, as it. o'rows more suecessfnl begin to lure youth from the control of parents. Actually good parental discipline s the best tiing for children. I'VE EVEN IIEARD it mention- ed that tie whoh- programs seems to be an off-slloot of a disease affecting the nation in general, a disease which boils down to, "Let George do it', I'm too busy!" In many respects people seem willing to give up their responsl- bilities and duties of freedom, People who observe no responsi- bilities cannot expect to have any rights. When tile chore of pro- riding for out' own children be- comes too great, it is always milch easier to turn them over to someone else. The trend seems to be that as individuals madly scramble for the fruits of the earth in chas- ing after the almighty dollar, they are inclined to forget their innate duties. If ever we lose the last vestiges of our freedom, it won't just as idleness is tlc most dc- ;tructive phase of a person's lift,• Browning was deep in thought while expressing the philosophy, "Our every Joy is three parts pain; strive and hold (:heap the strain," in pointing out that when w, work for a lofty goal, we attain happiness ill the strife. It eems that if children need anything at all today they need responsibilities of work placed ui). on them by parents wlo take snf- ficient interest in the upbringing of their youngsters to see that the jobs assigned get done. IN TBYING TO see our way through the non-ending mazes of cross purposes that poll across our horizons like snap-bath bub- bles in a tub of warm water, we at some time m' other in ore' lives are faced with the problem: "What is the ultimate end in life?" Is it all pleasure luxmy, satisfying desire for gadgets, live fast and make mgrry- Or is there something deeper" in life? Some deeply consider the ques- tion of education today as a pri- mary factor in molding or aban- doning good character develop- ment. Botl Walter Lippman and Robert Hutchins, contemporary educators, worriedly have ana- lyzed education in America. claim- ins that students are taught so many techniques, skills, trades that they are losing the all-impor- tant grasp on wisdom that has been guiding our civiliT.ation. PEIIAJPS IF students were given more home work to do. that work would account for more time being spent at home eve- nings under the jurlsdfction of parents, In checking 10ack 50 years ago we find that in those days both Shelton and Elms had so-mucil rowdyism in the towns that cur- few laws were imposed by city officials to 'take the young people off the streets and keep them home.

Dess Haines Has Gray Cat Trouble In Hoodsport By Frances Radtke Dess Haines is now being called the friendly undertaker in Hoods- port. 'Phe other evening along about dusk Nancy Lockwodd and Gloria Johnson knocked' at his door and asked if he had a gray cat with n bob tall, Upon answe T- ing in the affirmative, the girls told him it had just been run over down by the Old Mill Tavern, DESS IiURRIED over and found the cat, head mashed in but rec- ognizable by the'stripes on its side.
