IOWA OPINIONS AND NOTES.

"Of all the senseless chickering's that
beset a community a factional fight
over the public schools Is" In the es-
timation of the Waterloo Reporter,
the limit. II there is no other way to
stop the squabble the irrepressible dis
turners ought to be muzzled and hand
cuffed. The schools are too important
in the life of any community to be
made football by contenders and pro-
testants. Usually there Is little cause
for complaint, except such as is arous-
ed by jealousy, and discomfort of
chronic kickers, and the great majority
of decent citizens should find way to
forcibly impress upon the GROWERS
that there is a nobler aim in life and q
more useful way of showing 1t than
by pulling hair about one of the best
institutions in our land. It's worse than
an epidemic"
The new secretary of the navy has
been called "a Roosevelt democrat,

That 'In very definite way the
personnel and the spirit of the coming
state convention will indicate to the
people what may be expected of the
republican party in Iowa now and in
the future" is predicted by the Des
Moines News. The last state con-
vention was so plainly one of those
accidents of political history that what
it did and what 1t decreed count for

could never find a tree that could
give SO much pleasure as that one
did. 1t was a large tree with
wide-spreading branches which
shaded one from the hot rays Of
the sun and sheltered him from
the rain and sleet.
This tree is one Of my earliest
memories. It was only sapling
then, so we grew up together.
