This I Believe
by JOHN HUGHES
New York Taxi Driver
I believe honesty is one of
the greatest gifts there is. I
know they call it a lot of fancy
names these days like integrity
and forthrightness. But it does
not make any difference what
they call it, it’s still what makes
a man a good citizen. This is
my code and I try to live
by it.
I’ve been in the taxicab
business for thirty-five years.
When 1 first started driving a
cab, Park Avenue was mostly
a bunch of coal yards. Hoofer’s
Brewery was right next to where
the Waldorf-Astoria is now. I
did pretty well, even in those
days.
I have never had any trouble
with the public, not even with
drunks. Even if they get a little
headstrong once in a while, I
just agree with them and then
they behave themselves.
People ask me about tips.
As far as I know, practically
everyone will give you some
thing. Come to think of it,
most Americans are pretty
generous. I always try to be
nice to everyone, whether they
tip or not.
I believe in God and try to
be a good member of my parish.
I try to act toward others like
1 think God wants me to act.
1 have been trying this for a
long time, and the longer 1
try the easier it gets.

TO SCHOOL?
When the school bell rings the teens’
telephone bell tinkles a different tune.
Now there seems to be even more to
talk about.
Play it cool. Give your neighbors their
share of the line. They’ll thank you and
they’ll return the favor.
Try it and see.

ernment.
3 years - Street and Sani

Your vote will be appreciated

the best of my ability.
Sincerely,

The Clinic was very profitable
to some twe my-five teachers
of Taylor County and five teach
ers of Talbot County.
Pre-planning week, beginning
August 27th for all teachers
was very profitable. August 27
and 28 were spent in coopera
tive planning of all teachers of
Taylor County which was held
at Eureka High.
On August 29th teachers be
gan concrete planning at their
various schools. Ereka High
School accepted as theme of
the year, presented by Prin
cipal Hicks, "Teaching-ACall-
ing To Fulfill”. All plans were
centered around this particular
theme. A very close evalua
tion was made of last term's
school program for the pur
pose of making improvement.
Committees were appointed.
Principal Hicks pointed up
that through close cooperation,
which brough about improved
student attendance, Eureka High
School was able to earn an addi
tional teacher, making a total
of twenty-five teachers. Teach
er assignments were made as
follows:
First Grade - Blanche Dixon
and Frances O’Bryant
Second Grade - Essie Mc-
Dougald and Leathy McCrary
Third Grade - A. L. Mott
and Virginia Black
Fourth Grade - Alberta Mc
Crary and Nillie B. Holsey
Fifth Grade - Gene Ingram
and Willie M. Leonard
Sixth Grade - Gloria Carson
and J. C. McCrary
Seventh Grade - Samantha

On August 30th, 753 students
registered for the first day of

with a well planned assembly
program with several faculty

VOICE OF
THE PEOPLE
Dear Editor:
May I ask a favor of your
fine paper? Please publish a
series of articles on Taylor
County Education featuring pro-
fes r mal advise and opinions
of local educators regarding fi
nancing, schedule of classes,
property tax re-evaluation,
millage, future planning, and
school consolidation. In my
opinion this series should
stress the advantages and dis
advantages of a consolidated
high school. Many small coun
ties have consolidated with won
derful results.
I feel this series is needed
in view of the confusion caused
in recent weeks by the abun
dance of conflicting statements,
rumors etc. An example of
charges heard include: Rey
nolds Schools have padded the
roll in order to keep teachers
and the State Board of Educa
tion on several occasions has
recommended that we consoli
date to one high school.
Taylor County is fifteen years
behind other counties in indus
trial development. Do we also
have to remain fifteen years
behind in education?
Mr. Marchman and the Board
of Education were kind enough
to review some of the above
problems to a small group of
interested citizens last Thurs
day night but all citizens should
be informed. Specific solutions
should be found to avoid shuf
fling of schedules and the year
postponement of the inevitable.
Sincerely,
Harold Brown
