Mason City Ua.) Minister Is Student of
City Government.

MASON CITY, Ia. June 30.-Mason
City is to be policed for one night by
the pastor of the Methodist Episcopal
church, DR.. Will w. Carlton. For this
one night he will be the chief. The
force will obey his instructions to the
letter.
Mayor Kirschman has promised that
he would prosecute all cases brought be-
fore him by the preacher-policeman
When Mayor Kirschman was elected
to the position, he. it is said, rendered
the position of chief of police to DR..
Carlton. DIR. Carlton refused.
Many persons are not now pleased
with the general tone of the city at
night time, so the preacher was asked to
see what he could unearth.
There will be no public announcement
made of the night when the minister is
to police the city.

The Responsibility.
1.-THE principals cannot shift their re-
sponsIbility upon the faculty advisers
The greatest educational danger in any
school system is the shifting Of respon-
siblllty.
This unhealthy feeling Is not the prod
uct OF one game. or even two. but OF
years of rivalry. A principal cannot
maintain clean athletics In inter high
school games without offending the sense
OF justice Of his students unless there is
uniformity Of action among the princi-
pals The principals admit the anomalous
position. yet insist there Is harmony be-
tween themselves and the faculty ad-
visers. II so. which side has surrendered?
1t may be time for the board OF education
to take charge OF athletics entirely, or
to fix the responsibility where II belongs
