The greatest drawback to the
public schools in this country, is
the fact, that so many parents
debar their children from their
right and privilege of attend
ing school, for the simple reason
that they need them at home to
work. An example of this kind
occurred here not many days ago,
when man requested the board
of directors to postpone the
school for q certain lenght of
time, because he needed his chill
dren at home to work. Some of
the directors consented but the
teacher was ready to begin school
accor ding to the contract, though
the man even offered to pay her
railroad expenses and free de-
livery back to the station, which
would have amounted to about
$500, but thanks to the fitness
of things the plan failed SINH
lar troubles occur elsewhere and
in our opinion there is only one
remedy, which we strongly ad-
vocate and that is compulsory

school laws and we sincerity hope
to see the day, not far distant,
when the ever increasing popula-
ton of this state will demand
such laws. OF course only the
ignorant parents are guilty of
such a crime against their chill
dren for crime surely it is, to
debar child from its God given
right of an education for no other
motive than physical labor. Such
people are hardly aware of their
parental responsibility and the
sooner we can have compulsory
school laws the better it will be
for them and for the country. In

words, which he issued in a cir

"The district director is one of
the most important officers elect
ed by the people. You are
charged with the educational
welfare of the children of your
district. The future citizenship
of the State will be determined
by the manner in which you dis
charge your duty" The school
director has indeed a hard stand,
and in endeavoring to please one,
he is sure to offend another;
therefore always do what you
think is right and be contented
with II ''kick" as the only COM

III emoriaI Day.

Another Memorial day is almost here
For the old soldiers it is the day of the
year, and we are sorry to see the iufa-
ercps which are working to depreciate
It's value to the people as Il whole. In a
sense it is national funeral day; day
which should be used for the teaching
of lessons of self sacrificing devotion and
loyalty to country; it is a day OF great
memories aud should be given up to
great thoughts and living hopes. The
old soldiers almost reverence it, and
many OF the people still continue to
join in its loyal recognition, and how
many there are vino have come to think
of it as a day of respite from labor
perhaps, or vacation, aud many there
are who desire it to be given entirely up
to sports. In nearly all our towns dur,
ing the public exercises in church or
hall, hundreds of the young men and
boys are on the campus or the meadow
making merry, and attracting hundreds
to the scene 1t is fast becoming i'm
possible to keep any day sacred, and set
apart for special holy service. Decora-
ton Day as first established has nearly
reached the end OF its recognition and
usefulness the Sabbath is fast being
given up to recreation aud sports and
amusements. The forenoons may be
devoted to The solemn services of the
sanctuary, but the afternoons must be
devoted to riding aud sailing, to football
matches and racingS, while the doors OF
places Of amuSementS open to expose
platform athletic performances and in
Il cent exhibitions. Life today is 50
strenuous along the line of yielding
everything to pleasure and entprtain-
ment. We suppose tie future viii take
care of itself, but we imagine if the
curtain could be raised many people
would be shocked by the vision. On .
personal liberty, how many wrongs are
