Take more than usual care in observing children these days. It is not our intent to alarm anyone unduly, but polio seems to be on the increase. Observe basio health rules and keep close watch of your children for early / detection and treatment can Ise- ' sen the severity of an attack. Ex- \ ercise utmost caution at all times. ‘ 0 o It has been mentioned several times that each should be certain that be is properly registered for the November elections. Each knows that it is the solemn duty of candidates to make their positions clear on all vital questions. Then it is the obligation of the voter to carefully evaluate these positions before casting a vote. Most aspirants tor public office Would have government serve the people, not try to master them. Be certain to be registered properly — bo certain to know the men and the issues involved. Then and only then can one consider himself a qualified voter. - The reassignment of the Reverends L. T. Norris, Benjamin G. Thomas, and John E. Chambers to the Evangelical United Brethren churches in our community has been made and we are happy that these men will remain with as. Each is highly respected and has served his particular church with the seat that is becoming to the ministry. Our best wishes are added to those of the members of the three congregations and we are confident that their fine ministries will continue to be an asset to the spiritual life of our Community. —_o o - Though the air was charged with tension uptoJ:3o a.m. today, anticipated verbal blasts were not as serious as expected. Even Mr. Truman was milder than he was predicted to be. The minority report that was heralded as a bombshell proved to be comparatively calm. Can’t say the 5 sleep which was missed was futile But histrionics were conspicuous by their absence. Even so. one does learn much of the ways and means of handling ticklish situations. 1 o 0-— The official opening of a part of the northern Indiana toll road this week points the way toward the finish of the project. While many are not in accord with either the idea or the location of the road it is here -to stay. The Indiana Toll Road Commission is responsible tor its building and

operation apart from the highway commission, for it was authorised to issue bonds for the necessary finances. Posterity will be aole to tell how good the ideas was but at present more Indiana travel seems to be inevitable. More travel means wider acclaim for our state and our position is bound to be enhanced among all 48 states. What is good for Indiana is good for us. • 0 0 ' George Orwell, author of “1984”, was not only a skilled writer but also an enemy of bad habits of speech and writing. Orwell said that anyone can cure oneself of the "not un”-for-matlon by memorizing this sentence: “A not unblack dog was chasing a not unsmall rabbit across a not ungreen field.” Orwell would have been shocked at: “Such has been the not infrequent noninaudible cry made from not a few rostrums by the Chamber of Commerce of the United States.” — Prof. Theodore J. Kreps. Prof. Kreps generally doesn't talk this way. But when one gets pen in hand, something seems to happen — particularly in government reports, where his un-forma-tion is found. - - This must be a prime example of editorial license. 0 0- —- Late August finds many of us thinking about the start of school • and inevitably what the young-’ sters can and do learn. Some twenty-three hundred years ago one of the greatest teachers of all time established a method which still stands well among educators. Socrates met the young people of Athens whenever there was a chance for conversation. Most of them came to him for guidance as well as out of rebellion against the blind acceptance of traditions and customs. The present world situation has forced upon the youth of our time a need to think honestly, persistently and effectively about the important, the basic problems of life. Problem solving must ever be uppermost in thought training; vital problems must be selected for students to solve. Our schools must train for a and happy group life in which think- 6 jng is the mode of adjustment between the individual and the group. Yes, modern teaching de-manda-the Socrates in the classroom of today. "Teach to think” should be the theme.

Initial Toll Road Section Is Opened Eastern 80 Miles Os Indiana Road Opened SOUTH BEND (UP) — Two men shook hands across the Indiana* Ohio border one minute after midnight today and traffic flowed onto the new northern Indiana toll road. The simple ceremony marked the opening of the eastern 80 miles of, the pay-as-you-go road stretching, from the Ohio border to the U.S. 31 interchange north of here.' The two men were Dr. Dillon Geiger, chairman of the Indiana toll road commission, and James W. Shockessy, chairman of the Ohio turnpike commission. Motorists jockeyed for position at the Ohio entrance as well as the Howe-Lagrange, Middlebury, Elkhart and,South Bend Interchanges. They were eager to be among the first on or off the new road. No free rides were given on the toll road today. Such extra touches were to be saved for the gala ceremonies when the highway is dedicated at South Bend Sept. 17. The toll road is slated to opfin as far west aS U. S. 39 at LaPorte within a week or 10 days, and as far as the Gary east interchange on U. S. 20 Sept. 15. Toll road offieials said they are opening the highway on a piecemeal basis to help pay off the $27,000 a day interest on a 286 million dollar bond issue. The Indiana tol Iroad commission hosted the Ohio turnpike commission at dinner Wednesday evening and the two commissions were first on the road when the gates were opened.
