Tits customary, perhaps fashionable
to discuss the county high school propo'
sltion, 1t has been discussed along
educational and economical lines an'
something has been said about Its being
a necessity. This last idea strikes Inc
rather forcibly.
Some years ago our Legislature very
wisely made the county high school a
possibility; with equal wisdom our last
legislature very wisely made 1t neces-
sity. By raising the standard for teach
er's certificates, increased ability will be
secured by raising the age limit for
teachers greater maturity and better
management and diCipline will be OBJ
tanned; by the enforcement Of the tru'
ancy law regularity of attendance Will be
secured and greater progress will be
made. New life and vgor along educa-
tional lines will spring up and the results
will be much more satisfactory. l am
sure that careful study of recent enact
mepts will reveal in a most conspicuous
way the truth of these statements
We need not 20 to New York. st'
Louis or Topeka for evidence to prove
that compulsory education is highly
beneficial. Fortunately we have an ex-
ample Of its effect at the Soldiers Home,
in our county. Commandant Thomas
established this rule for the regulation OF
yhool children; $50 to school or to
sbme other place to eat" 1t took root,
grew, blossomed and bore fruit. Thlr.
! len of the twenty.eight graduates in the
c&nty schools last year were from the
Soldiers Home.
The truancy law saysto children be-
tween the ages of eight and fifteen years
inclusive, attend a public school, or a
private, denominational or parochla
school for such period as such school
shall be in session each year, or 60 to the
State reform school or permit your
parents Or guardians to pay a fine of
from $500 to $25.OO monthly as a mis-.
demeanor for permitting their children
to be absent from school. VIII this law
secure regularity Of attendance at school
for the entire term? VIII the law be en-
forcedY no you doubt that the county
superintendent has the ability and the
backbone to enforce it? will venture
the assertion that his worst enemy (if he
has an enemy cannot point to a single
instance where he ever shirked duty.
Don't doubt for single moment that the
attendance will not be greatly improved.
With regular attendance and stronger
teachers will there not be a greater num-
Der of graduates? Twenty-eight grad
uated in the county schools and an equal
number from the grammar school in
Dodge City last year. Sixty pupils have
taken the examinations in the country
schools this year, Is it unfair to esti-
mate that from sixty to seventy.fve
pupils will graduate yearly in the country
schools under the new order Of things?
With sixty-fve graduates in the
schools Of the county outside of Dodge
City and twenty-five in the Dodge City
sChoolis a County high school q neces-
sity?
Our county superintendant's first term
began on the 18th day Of May 1908.
Do you, doubt that bis second term will
will end on the second Monday Of May
1907?

st =. She }lee-ooar Gil meeting last
night Trustee w. N. Bowser sur
prised the others present by
handing in his resignation. No
excuse was given for his action,
other than that his duties as a
city father interfered to too
great an extent with his regular
mercantile business. He says
that he cannot properly attend to
both his store and the duties con
nected with his office of trustee
at the same time. The resigna-
ton was laid on the table,and will
be acted upon at the meeting
next Monday night.
Mr.. Bowser was elected to the
position at the regular election
last March, and has since acted
in complete harmony with the
rest of the council. Tt has been
remarked that those who hold the
reins of the towns government
in their hands have been unusu-
ally harmonious.
In an interview this morning
MI. BoWser said: [ have mother
reason to give for handing in my
resignation other than that |

ton to the office and at the same
time run my business here as it

Besides MT. BOWsef S reSlg-

to be acted upon. The petition
asking for an extension of Be

the table. Before the next meet

DIRECT TREATMENT
CURES CONSUMPTION
Here is More Proof From

1t is generally recognized by the medical
profession that the most effective way TO treat con-
sumption is to attack the germs in their strong
hole, the lungs and air pipes.
The old way of swallowing medicine into tie

to be ineffective. DR.. Edward Koch says: From
my experience, covering many years, in which
I have personally treated thousands of consump-
tives. think safely say that not one patient
ever cured OF genuine consumption by taking
medicine into the stomach
Consumption is a terrible disease. and requires
heroic treatment. The difficulty heretofore las

Of the DIR. Edward Koch Inhalation Apparatus.
Physicians admit that the Koch '-Tuberculine'
kills the consumption poison when brought in direct
contact with the germs themselves The Koch
inhalation is the only method discovered
which will successfully administer the ''Tuber-
culine.'
The Koch Treatment is direct and thorough. and
the cures which It effects permanent. Ample
evidence Of this statement s furnished by the large
number Of cured patients who today living
