Before the public school teachers of this
nation there Is opening a future which,
like every other, prospective view in the

and cheering. 1t Is cheering to believe
that we may live To see the day when ed

priced in the South as in the North that

the Pilgrims of 1920 were commissioned
of the Almighty to plant upon these then
benighted shores. has grown the Tree of
Life whose leaves are for the healing Of the
nationI But it Is solemn to reflect that
upon b. shoulders is thrown 50 great a

The opinion seems 10 be gaining strength that

been remarked upon in other sections of the

the climate has been completely reyolutionized

applicants whose claims were pressed at the be-
ginning Of the present administration, when Mr..

again So far, Mr.. Gangewer, the chief clerk of
the Office, Gen. T.. e. Whittelsey, OF the Freed
mems bureau, and Mr.. Holt, of the Internal
Revenue Office, appear to be the most prominent
on the list. OF these three, Mr.. Gangewer's s

OF bis great experience in the Office and his
staunch Republeanism, and if he does not get

that he is from Ohio, which State, it is alleged,
