Now Lady Autum is on the way and there’s a certain warning in the air. Warning Summer that he must give up his rule. Already there is a scat¬ tering of reds and yellows in the mountains, the dogwood, the ash, the sumac. Summer’s lease soon will be up and Lady Autumn, like any w'oman, will move in and com¬ pletely re-decorate the scene with a great array, of bright color. She’ll readjust the tem¬ perature, prohibit swimming, change clothing styles and in What Other Editors Are Saying “Things can always be worse Thirty years from now speeders will crash in the sky and fall on pedestrians,” KNOSVILLE (GA.) POST — O — “President Eisenhower has campaigned for economy in government in spite of almost over-whelming pressure from Capital . . . “M any thinking citizens across the nation have seen the wisdom in the President’s pro¬ gram. Despite political attach¬ ments, they have rallied to the cause of Government economy.” ELKON (MD.) WHIG — O — “Let’s not fool ourselves. We", the people, are going to pay for School’s In 1/ i, Soon the school bell will toll for the children of Dade County. It is both a sad and a happy occasion. Sad because it is the death knell of summertime fun, care¬ free days and ease of living. It is a happy occasion because it will bring a return to learning —and while the kids may not think its too important—those who know now, wish they had known then. Education in the future wiil be far more important than it is today—and today it is more important than yesterday.

But we’re sorta glad. For she’ll also order football games, sleep- conducive nights and Harvest moon hayrides. She ushers in the delightful smell of burning leaves and beautifies the land scape with swirling smoke from chimneys and she’ll bring the time of harvesting crops—pump kins, apples—a n d wonderful tender turnip greens. She’ll remind us to change pace, reassemble ourselves and cause us to look forward to the season of Thanksgiving. And we need that every year. So we’re getting ready to give her a red carpet welcome. our schools. We can pay to a city or special school district, a county school organization, a state department or a federal bureau. Whichever one raises taxes and meets the needs will handle the funrs and set up the standards by which the school be run. “If the financing is federal, sooner or later the federal bure¬ aucrats will be calling the tune. We believe we would rather pay a piper who is a little closer to home ...” COVING (TENN.) LEADER — O — Recent headline in metro- politian papers: “New York in Dark After Power Failure.” (Editor’s note: Was’nt it always?) has been said that the college education of tomorrow will be as necessary as the high school education is today. More and more the world be¬ comes more technical and re¬ quires more learning. The job of the teacher has become more and more important. The Times salutes the teach¬ ers and welcomes the new faces amongst them. And perhaps of more immedi¬ ate importance is this. The school bell rings a warn¬ ing! A warning to drivers to slow r down and let our kids live in getting re-settled. Mr. and Mrs. J. W. Forshee made the trip out west in their truck to return the Halls. SEE YOUR DRUG STORE FIRST IK fA| *!& ... »TKSf|tep„ rt s SHINCTON iBBr r .bCfcj THERE ARE SOUND argu¬ ments which can be made both for and against the forthcoming visit to this country by Russian Premier Khrushchev. m m jilHk il Since the Soviet leader has demon¬ strated that he is not well in¬ formed about the United States and the freedom, pros- perity. deter¬ __________ mination and strength of the American people, it should be to our definite advantage for him to have a full opportunity to ob¬ serve every facet of American life with his own eyes. On the other hand, the fact that the Chief Ex¬ ecutive ol our country is having the Communist dictator as his official guest likely will have the decided disadvantage of discour¬ aging the uncommitted nations whose support we have courted and of demoralizing the enslaved satellite nations whose resistance to Soviet domination we have eneburaged. Only time can tell which factor will outweigh the other. • • • THE GREATEST immediate danger attendant to the visit lies in assuring Mr. Khrushchev’s per¬ sonal safety while he is in this country. There are hundreds of thousands of persons in the United States, particularly refu-_ gees who have been driven f^oruj their homelands by Soviet aggres-- sion, who would gladly give their lives to kill him. The situa¬ tion is one which poses a security problem without parallel because should the Russian Premiei be as¬ saulted, shot or assassinated while, here there would be grave inter-; national complications indeed. Another problem is posed by the fact that it is a customary Cour¬ tesy to invite visiting foreign Offi¬ cials to address joint sessions of STOP!!!

The alternatives are either to capitu¬ late or to fight—the former being unthinkable and the latter too horrible to contemplate short of an absolute matter of survival. One would have to be naive in the extreme to expect the visit to have any effect upon the undevi¬ ating Russian objective of total conquest of the world to Commu¬ nism. and view'itfhs oply a complete idiot Would a reason to rellax ' -our guard. The most for which we can hope is that the. first¬ hand impressions gained by Mr. Khrushchev of the will and .ca¬ pacity of the American people 'to resist all efforts to conquer or subvert them will give him and f jhis cohorts in tnftik jthe Kremlin cause 'to stop and before embark¬ ing upon any 1 provocative adven¬ ture which could plunge the world Into a catastrophic conflict which could destroy both nations and .civilization with them. Boy Scout Killed In Canyon Fall William B. Hornsby Jr., 12- year-old Boy Scout, fell 75 feet to his death at the Lower Falls in Cloiidland Canyon State Park la°t Thursday night. He was one of 24 scouts, along with five adult leaders, includ¬ ing his scoutmaster father, who had been camping out in the park while on an 'annual troop trip. The group was from Jackson¬ ville, Fla, and made up of boys of personnel at the Naval Air Station near there. Young Hornsby became separ ated from a small group of boys on a hike through the fall sec¬ tion of the canyon. He was mis¬ sed by the others as they reas¬ sembled at the campsite. Three boys were dispatched to search for him and they found him at the foot of the Lower Falls. He died while rescue workers struggled to lift him from the almost inaccessible area. A doc¬ tor, traveling with the group, said Hornsby died of a brain concussion and a fractured heck. He was pronounced dead by Dr. N. H. Hutchison, Dade County health officer. The boy’s father, W. B. Horn¬ sby, a Hospitalman 3rd Cl., ex¬ pressed gratitude for the “tre¬ mendous job” done by volun¬ teer rescuers, made up of resi¬ dents in the area.
