Plan to Buy Piano For a School.

to the st. Louis Republic All day
they can sit in school and chew gum or
eat candy. and when their supply runs
out they can go to their teacher and
buy more, for every teacher now runs
confectionery store and sells the
children all the candy they wish to
buy. The profit is to be used to
purchase a piano for the S3S, 600 school
house now in the course of erection.
OF course the rule forbidding children
eating in school hours has not been re-

stances it Is but natural that the teach
ers cannot always see when the rule
is being broken.

A Great PRIVILEGE.

The next best thing to being presi-
dent yourself is having your man

live in the White House at a time. it is
this sort of vicarious occupancy of the
office that must satisfy the other if
teen or twenty millions. But what
does that matter to a man who has
really entered into the American spir-
it? Even if he cannot deliver the in
augural address himself he can help
make the man who does. can call him
by his front name and take an init
mate interest in his comings and 60
ings. his family and his policies 1t is
for this that the voter each four years
neglects his business to argue politics.

just how great we have not yet meas

That the president Of the United
States has more power than any other

nized that it has become platitude.

The nation is now in one of its quad

Despite the growing spirit of political

the big secretary is that "he wins the

the Filipinos or the Porto Ricans or
any other people that have become ac-

OF course President Roosevelt is
notable exception to this general rule,
