"Mr. Sark" the school inspector said, "has indeed a great experimen- tal -field in education. His work is satisfactory and commendable."

Pitkin, famed author of "Life Begins at Forty," it is a small. er room than it used to be. And in. stead of being in a city skyscraper, it may be on the main street of the old home town. : a Able young. man and women today, Dr. Pitkin notes in the current Ro- tarian Magazine, should take a real. istic view of the change, and recog- nize the fact that it may be neces- sary for them to work longer than did able youth of another generation at jobs requiring less' than their full abilities. Progress up what he de- séribes as "the battered old ladder of succeds," is apt to be slower than formerly, and wise youth will culti- vate local acquaintances and a know- ledge of local affairs, 3 A 10-point list of qualifications ne- cessary for high-grade young men and women who wou'd reach the room.at- the-top is offered by Dr. Pitkin: 1. -- Health 2. -- Iligh energy 3. -- Persistence 4. -- Thoroughness 5. -- High technical training "6. -- Social sense--- the ability to get along well with people 7. -- Self-knowledge, understanding. 8. -- Willingness to work for a long time at jobs requiring less than. one's abilities. 10. --* A knowledge of local affairs and wide acquaintanceship with local people. r All of which, he adds, is based on the patent fact, "Today there Is no room anywhere for millions who are able and willing to work.

Holtzman, in- ternational lawyer, for Francis-Hack- ett, American author of "Henry VIL." i The suit, which promises to be the biggest plagarism suit in recent years, is expected to involve more than $1,000,000. ey Alexander Korda, the producer; London Film Productions, Ltd, and the United Artists' Corporation, are named defendants.

U.S. IS GRIEVED The Lindberghs had suffered years of danger, humiliation and exaspera- tion in their own country.

' SHOULDN'T LIKE IT It is nearly a year since Hauptman was condemned to death (Feb, 13, 1935) after along trial; and he is still unhung. : That. sio~one--should be punished unjustly is . a- noble idea; and of course that idea is at the roots of the laxity of American courts. But also the idea is noble that multitudes of decent people should not be consider- ed ecasy prey by criminals who rob and kidnap and murder; it is probably more humane and better that one per- son in a thousand accused may be punished unjustly by process of law than that crime should seam tao be a tolerable safe avenue of exploita- tion by a comparatively few vicious people among millions of decent ones. There is a further moral which some of our own people might take to heart. Imprisonment is punish- ment. A penitentiary is not a place where convicts should find feather beds and be encouraged to play ball games. It is a place where there should be strict discipline, stiff regu- lations, plain food and hard work. The convicts will be dissatisfied. They should be. That is what they are there for. And the common sense of the Canadian people should be dis- posed to the side of the law and of the officers of the law when there are outeries in or about aries. -- Ottawa Journal, - "THRILL OF DOING "lie Rt. Hon. Winston Churchill, one of Britain's ~ most distinguished public men, is credited with the fol- lowing: "Po those who say, 'Think of the difficulties!' I answer, 'Think of the reward!' " There's something to remember --think of the reward. Mr. Churchill, we take it, did not have monetary considerations in mind when he gave this advice. What he had in mind was the glory of achievement, the deep satisfaction that comes with a realization that one has striven hard and long and finally reached a goal, the pati to which was beget with many difficulties.
