The fact that the scourge of con lict did not sear the continental area of this country does not mean that the hand of war was not heavy upon the land. : In celebrating the birth of the Prince of Peace the people of the United States exhibit a broad tolerance that makes the occasion a festival for all people, regardless of faith. The good humor that prevails, the kindly sympathy for the unfortunate and the boundless efforts to bring happi- négs to boys and girls make the Christmas season’s appeal univers } The day will be marked, as usual, by religious services, the civing of gifts, the exchange of salutations and greetings, the nted children and the those of ma- ill be a day ns of people, m scene of Christmas for the merriment of deligh deep, if less exuberant, joy of ture years.

In expressing our hope that the read- ers of this newspaper will experience abun- dant joy on this happy occasion we must take space to greet the absent men and women of the community who remain over- seas. It is hard for them to be away from home and loved ones, now that the war is over, and it is just as tough on their loved ones at home. This unfortunate, if situation will be remedied, we are sure, be- fore another Christmas rolls around. At the same time the disappointment shou be tempered by the realization that those overseas, and in camps at home, serve the cause we celebrate. Without their serv- ices, and those of others now happily pres- ent, the celebration of Christmas would not now assume such splendid proportions. aS Ss Nearly anybody is of some importance to himself. es unpreventable, Hungry people cannot understand the | fastidious tasté of the well-fed.

In Great Britain, he is considered the arch traitor of all time, and the British, noted for their slowness, but thoroughness withal, gave him the same type of fair trial | as would have been given to an ordinary | criminal. Finally, with that rugged slowness, | which has so exasperated Lord Haw Haw, he is now a mental and physical wreck, | the House of Lords, his last hope, has de- clared he must “hang till he is dead.” The American ideal, inherited from the men who met in Independence Hall, Philadelphia, in 1776, is, that ‘‘Govern- ment derives its just powers from the con- sent of the governed.” PHYSICAL EDUCATION NEEDED A publication of the National Educa- tion Association tells us that ‘adequate school health programs are imperative’, which is about what we have tried to tel! our readers for some years. One out of every three men, called into service after Pearl Harbor, was unfit for duty. This applies to those between the ages of 18-37 but even among the 18-19 group the rejections, were one out of four. In the 18-19 ages rejections among the whites were 23.8 percent and among Negroes 45.5 percent. For farm youth the rejections were 41 percent compared to 25 percent for all occupational groups. This evidence of physical disability is not only a challenge to the nation but a condemnation. Parents, schools, public health services, doctors and lawmakers share the blame. Every individual is part- ly responsible insofar as he, or she, did not do anything to remedy the appalling lack of proper physical education and de- velopment. There are some signs of physical edu- cation in Monroe County but the truth of the matter is that what has been attempted is woefully inadequate. Even the pro- grams of our largest schools is but a feeble start upon the great task of insuring proper physical growth for boys and girls. Authorities suggest that adequate school programs are imperative. They are right in this suggestion, even if the program costs money. School years are critical for physical growth and most students need, more than ever, a sensible routine of health, physical education and proper rec- reation. The way to get a bill passed through any legislature is to let-the solons know | how the majority of the voters are lined up. ALMOST WORTH HAVING Maj. Gen. Leslie R. Groves, the army’s expert on the atomic bomb, was recently asked whether there was a possibility of | an atomic bomb explosion setting off a chain of chemical reaction that would de- stroy the earth. The officer replied that he wasn’t worried about it and that his best advisers did not think that this was a real peril. Wowever, he added, “If it happens, it will be all over—and we won’t have to explain that one.” This is a pleasant thought, if there | must be wholesale destruction of the globe.

When they got the whole story Frank got up and began walking back and forth across the floor. “I don’t know whether to tell the police or not.” Frank drew his brows together. “It couldn’t help and it_migh put you in a worse light.
