that they. must provide themselves
with picnic baskets. The picnic
feature promises to be one OF the
brightest numbers on the program.

charge of his room, or of his school
as the case may be. In order to avoid
confusion it is suggested that each
classroom in the case of large graded
schools eat the picnic meal together

manner, each rural school should
have general spread for its MEM

Foolish Claims.

On former occasions the States
as discussed the absurd claims

Importers of Jastremski will

approaching election. TheThibo-
aux Sentinel was one of the
most able of the newspaper sup
P0rters of General Jastremski.
Ind here is what it says of this
bsurd claim in a late issue:
The Republicans are still

General Jastremslki, and implor.

JAPAN and KOREA
The Real Causes Underlying the Pres
ent Russian and Japanese
War.

Mr.. Colgate Bakers article in the
May Pearson's is one Of the clearest
presentations of the influences which
have led to the present contest be-
tween Japan and Russia that has yet
appeared. Japan, he asserts, is not
waging a far Of self-aggrandizement.
war Of conquest and expansion, but
is. rather animated by a desire for
the npbuilding. and reform of Korea,
which she honestly seeks, both for her
own good and for that of the Ko-
reans. The Japanese are indebted to
the Koreans in the past for mucl. of
their knowledge and culture and
would gladly repay the debt by in
ducing the Koreans to follow them in
their march of progress and the adop-
ton of modern civilization.
Mr.. Baker was born in Japan and
has lived there much of his life. He
is therefore in a position to present
the Japanese viewpoint of the situa-
ton in a manner impossible to a
foreigner with but slight acquaint-
ance with japanese people and GUS

Next Tuesday, May 3, is election
day. The Republicans have a good
ticket and strong ticket, and there
is no occasion for any one boiling it.
Our candidates are all good men and
loyal citizens, and, if elected, will
make good officers.
The Democrats are NJ taking strong
effort to elect their candidate for
mayor, Reese R. Marlatt. We have
no fight to make on Mr.. Marlatt only
there is no excuse for any Republi-
can voting for him when they have
candidate of their own. Mr.. Mar
latt says it is not question Of poll
ties, but one Of morality. If it is not
a question Of politics, why does the
name Of the candidate appear on the
Democratic ticket? IF it is not a
,question of politics why did not Mr..
Marlatt come out independently? Re
publicans should not be led astray by
this ruse-it is only a catch. There
is question of politics involved, and
Republicans should not forget this
fact.
