C1as E. Ridgway. clerk of the

gan using Doan's Kidney Pills
about two years ago. I had just
got over bad attack of rheuma-

suffered a great deal from bach
ache and there was also an exces-
sive flow of the secretions. A
neighbor advised me to try
Doan's Kidney Pills so I got a
box at w w Gibson's drug store.
They proved to be just what /
needed and it was not long before
I was well. Ever since that I
kept Doan's Kidney Pills on hand
and every few months I take a
box. I do this as a preventative
and know they keep my kidneys
in good shape. All through this
western country people are trou-
bled with kidney ailment, the
cause being mostly in the hard
alkali water. If they would take
Doan's Kidney Pills occasionally
there would be less sickness"

Two p. N. Saturday, debate
Resolved that the American sys-
tenn of education is seriously de-
fective in mental, physical and
moral training Affirmative,
Rev. II. II. Bowen. Ellis; J. G.
Ruppenthal, Russ FL. Negative,
J. s. Bird, Hays; L. p. Light,
Hays. The following are some
of the points made by the affirm
ative: Any defect regardless
of it's source is a defect in the
system. One defect corrected
would not make a well rounded
system, because the others
would overrule the good. On
the average, the pupil is given
too much work to cover in the
limited time given. Usually
morals are pushed out of schools;
mere mental training is not
enough; more attention should
be given tomoral strengthening. "
Negative: Much of the fault
does not lie with the system as it
| apparently does, but rather with
the parents. They think more
of the almighty dollar than the
children. We cannot teach re
ligion in schools, as do the Ger
mans, but we can teach morals.
Teachers are selected as much
for their moral character as for
their mental ability"
