WHEN GEN. Dwight D. Eisenhower ar-
rived at the union station in St. Louis

The bobby soxers were not there to picket
General Eisenhower, as a group of women
did the house where he was staying in Den-

The fact of the matter was, that the bobby
soxers didn't recognize the general and were
not even looking for him. They were at
the station to greet movie comedian Red
Skelton, who arrived on the same train.

Young Kirkwood got the role and the two lived
on the same salary.
Now was the tough time of the partnership as
far as Goodman was concerned. He knew almost as
much as Kirkwood because, although he didn’t
come from a theatrical family, he had been a child
actor in Noel Coward’s “Conversation Piece.” That
should have grounded him indefinitley, but the
lad recovered and next appeared as a junior “G”
man in a radio series which should have grounded
him permanently and conclusively.

• CHRISTMAS WHERE IT COUNTS
SIXTY-FIVE girls from among the 180 at
the Gainesville State School for Girls are
participating in an experiment at the school.
They are being allowed to have Christmas
where it counts—at home.
The girls were carefully screened before
being granted a four-day furlough, plus
traveling time. Each one allowed to go home
had gone at least three months without a
problem report and had been at the school
at least six months. She was carefully
checked by a classification committee at the
school.
Permission for each girl to leave the
school was granted by the probation de-
partment or by the committing judge in the
county from which she came, and her par-
ents sent money to cover her traveling ex-
penses.
The furloughs should do the girls more
good than any activities, however interest-
ing and meaningful, on the campus. Observ-
ance of Christ’s birthday in the family at-
mosphere without the restraint of a school,
with a touch of voluntary devotion, makes
the anniversary count for more.
The love, the personal touch of Christmas
at home is added to the solemn implication
of the season.
A holiday should make the girls think—
even if only fleetingly—on the reason for
the holiday and their freedom. The fact
that they are trusted and on their own
should give a sense of responsibility, one of
the best Christmas gifts in the power of the
school to bestow.
If everything works out smoothly this
year, Mrs. Maxine Burlingham, superintend-
ent of the school, is planning to grant the
furloughs next year:
Such an incentive before them should
work as a tonic on the girls at the school this
spring and summer. For we are willing to
bet our last dollar that the girls who have
spent Christmas at home will respond to the
trust placed in them and return to the school
so that they or others may spend Christmas
where it counts—at home—next year.

BTATE HIGHWAY COMMISSIONER
THE CITIZENS of North Texas are vitally
interested in the reappointment of A. F.
Mitchell of Corsicana as a member of the
State Highway commission.
Mitchell was appointed to the post to fill
the unexpired term of John Redditt, and a
ew appointment is due from Governor Shiv-
ers soon after the first of the year.
The present personnel of the commission
includes a member from South Texas, an-
other from West Texas, and Mitchell, whose
home is strategically located in Northeast
Central Texas.
Mitchell is one of the best qualified men
who has ever served on the Highway com-
mission, by reason of the fact that he is a
former highway department engineer, and
-nows well the problems of the commission.
He is a man of means who has the time to ,
serve in this important post, and likewise is
a man of highest integrity and ability.
Should Governor Shivers see fit to reap-
point Mitchell he will gratify the wishes of
a great and important section of the state.

SCHOLASTIC GAINS
IF THE statewide survey made by E. L.
Galyean, representing the Texas State
Teachers association, is borne out, Cooke
county will have a 25 per cent increase in
scholastic population 10 years hence.
This year, Cooke county had 4,825 scho-
lastics and last year the total was 4,876. If
Galyean’s prediction obtained locally, there
would be 6,031 scholastics in the county in
1960.
However, the figures are based on an av-
erage increase and some thickly populated
and rapidly growing sections will show 25
per cent and greater increases, while in other
sections, the decrease may continue.
The peak of scholastics in Cooke county
was reached in 1900, and has been on a de-
cline for the past half a century. This is
due to the decrease in rural population, and
the trend toward smaller families.
While it is quite probable the Gainesville
school district will show a gain during the
next 10 years, there would have to be unex-
pected changes in the economy of the rural
sections for an impressive increase in rural
scholastics.
