Closely following Massachusetts, similar schools were established in the Connecticut colonies, and in 1657 the New Haven colonial court ordered that each town not already maintaining siiould open one and pay one-third of its expenses, the rest to be paid on a per capita basis by families served. Plymouth Colony later on provided school money by leasing its fisheries on the coast, thus raising about $150 a year. In New Amsterdam, now New York, the first schools, were supported by. the West India Company, but controlled by the Dutch Re- formed Church. There was “dame scudols, taught by women i: cheir homes, these teachers receiviig as little as 10 shillings, or $1.67, a year. In 1682 the. salary of President Rogers of Harvard University was fixed at $516 a year. one-third of ‘which was paid in provisions or o er goods. In the early elementary schools only reading, writing and the Bible were taught, those who desired to learn arithmetic be- ing obliged to resort to a speciai ‘..phering master.” through also se PRESIDENTS’ SPAN OF LIFE Why all this maudlin attitude toward ex-presidents, that they sacrifice ti.zir lives for their country, and die an untimely death. Even if it were true, there are hun- dreds of statesmen, some of them so- called, who are willing to take the risk in becoming president.. But it is not correct for the average life span of the presidents has been 69, very close to man’s allotment of three score and ten. The late President Coolidge himself said that he was in bet- ter physical condition when he left the White House than when he entered it.

The peo- ple.are paying much more attention to the administration of public affairs because the need is imperative, and once ‘being cognizant of the fact that the public’s busi- ness is their personal affair, squandering of public funds will cease. | Breaths of sunny Florida still linger | ‘round the ice-boxes and smoking stands of local staff members and employees of Point Pleasant Printing & Publishing Company fréim the boxes of oranges, grapefruit, tan- gefines, kumquats, and here during Christmas by the company's president, L.

Their life expectation, had they not met with a tragic death, would very probably have advanced the average life span of the presidents to much beyond 70 years. President-reject Hoover, soon to be- eome the only living ex-president, accord- ing to news dispatches is making no bones about having his eye on the presidency in 1986, this with his term not yet finished, and shortly after a hard campaign in which he and his party were overwhelmingly repudiated. : =: Of course, the presidency is a “man’s job, but not necessarily a killing one. BUSINESS PROSPECTS Business prospects for 1933 are largely a matter of opinion and both optimistic and pessimistic views seem about equally divided. : The optimists figure that 1932 was such a bad year that 1933 must be better. They say that the country economized on necessities during the past year and that the purchase of these necessities can no longer be delayed. There is the belief that once the pur- chase of these necessities starts, the result will be a purchasing resumption all along the line. In a country as great as our own, with its latent wealth and energetic pop-} ulation, this is believed ta presage a con- tinuous upward trend of business. The increases in prices of wheat, cot- ton and other agricultural products lends an encouraging light to the opinioas of the optimists.
