Smith c°lYo*‘ e Select Career R ECENTLY I saw several high school teenage juniors, who I thought had nothing more on their minds than the latest basketball scores, seriously examining college entrance forms and course cata logues, all the while carrying on a heated conversation about what they were going to study. After questioning a few of them. and talking to their teachers, I learned that one doesn’t just pack his bags one fine September morn ing, get on a train and go to the college of his choice. It appears those days are gone forever. According to my information the nation’s colleges are becoming more and more crowded, and by 1960, many youngsters will be un able to attend college because of lack of facilities. Even now, the teenagers report, colleges are getting rather choosey about their students. They want the good students. To get in the college of their choice the average teenager in the last two grades of high school should have his appli cation in months ahead of the entrance date. This might be a good thing. If colleges are taking the good stu dents first, it puts the pressure on the kids to really buckle down in high school. Also, I think it tends to make teenagers give some serious thought to careers. At the same time, it definitely discou 0 es “go ing to college just to be going.” I would like to know what other high school teenagers think about this college problem. • * * If yon have a teenage problem yon want dlneueed, nr an observation to make, address yonr letter to FOR AND ABOUT TEENAGERS, NATIONAL, WEEKLY NEWSPAPER SERVICE, FRANKFORT, KY. REV. ROBERT H. HARPER ALL FOOLS' DAY I N CASE you have overlooked it, the first day of April .is All Fools’ Day. Chances are, someone “sportively imposed upon” you, in the language of the dictionary, and did not allow you to forget the day. Of all the days men are accus tomed to remember, “All Fools’ Day” seems the most foolish. But it is rather mild, in comparison with other days that men spend in tragic folly, as it proves in the end. A long list of such days, with no special claim for observance, may be remembered afterward in sorrow and grief. Such a day may be when one responds to the thrill of speed and presses down too heavily on the accelerator. We may think, too, of the man who gives a ready ear to the insidious whisperings of evil. So now, with levity aside and with serious things in view, let us determine that the first day of April shall not be made 'to reach into all the days of the year. Worse than “All Fools’ Day” would be All Days’ Fool. And rather let us seek for every day the wisdom that comes through faith in God. sioners of Election. 48-2tc POLITICAL Announcements HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES I hereby 'annouhee myself a candidate for re-election to the House of Representatives from Newberry County and pledge my self to abide the results of the Democratic Primary.

A TALE OF OLD SHOES By Alice Wernherr TT EELS, please,” the lady LT said, putting a pair of worn brown shoes on the counter. “Leather?” asked Fred. “Leather,” answered the lady. Fred nodded, took the shoes and returned to his workbench. For a heart throb or two, h«? sat still and looked out of the window. School was over, boys and girls filed the square, walking and run- ring, swinging their cases with books. Fred sat on his workbench, pressing the pair of old brown shoes against his heart, on the spot, where the pain was and the longing. He looked at the last girl, who came running out of the building across the square, a dancing red dot against the gray of the houses and the blue of the sky. The skirt of the poppy red dress swirled around her brown knees, the pony tail bounced like a wild little horse’s mane. “Will the shoes be ready soon?” the lady asked. She sat Li the booth and wriggled her stockinged toes. “No time at all,” Fred replied. Shoes — shoes — shoes —downtrod den, wornout shoes, begging for help. A hospital for ailing shoes, Fred thought. Not that he dis liked shoes. He understood that his father wanted him to help with the business, because times were hard and he could not afford hired help. What else could he do than take Fred out of school and put him into the world of heels and soles, leather and rubber? Personalities No, he did not mind the shoes, Fred mused, one could come to like shoes and understand them if one lived with them eight hours a day. There were shoes that looked like gentlemen and ladies, slightly impoverished, perhaps, but still of a nobility. Others looked like tramps, shamelessly displaying their defects, a devil-may-care rin in the wrinkles of their never- lished leather. Some looked liire dancehall-dandies, their heels all worn down from bee-pop and rock n’rolL I wonder, Fred thought, who is going to take Carol to the high school dance next Saturday— last year, it was I. School days, school dreams, school love, Fred told himself. He lived in the somber and responsi ble world of shoes now, and could not be bothered with a poppy red dress over sunburned knees and a provocative pony tail. “Here are your shoes,** Fred said to the lady. “As good as new.” “Thank you,” the lady/ said pleased “you are a very efficient young man.” Fred returned to his bench. “Let’s start with the dancehall dandy shoes,” the thought “may belong to some kid from high school—maybe the guy, who is going to take Carol.” There was the throbbing again, on the left side of his chest, just where the heart is beating. “Hi, Fred,” a voice said from the door. “Carol,” stammered Fred. “Here are my slippers,” Carol said, “the ones I wore at the last dance. Mom said, they are like new yet—only the heels are all crooked, because we danced the whole night through—remem-, her, Fred?” “Yes,” Fredsaid, "I remember.” “You can fix them, though, can’t you, Fred? We want to dance all night through again, don’t we, Fred?” “We—’’Fred stammered, “you mean, you are not going with one of the boys from school?’ “Oh, the school boys—** Carol said disdainfully and wrinkled her little nose. “I would like to go with a business man like you, Fred. Will you take me?” “Of course,” Fred said and hoped the shoes would muffle the loud beating of his heart, “of course I’ll take you, Carol I am not at all hardboiled businessman yet” SNOWBOUND ...
