OF the work he has chosen 10 do;
He's lazy or else he's deficient on brains
And maybe hyDocFit too;
He's liable TO cheat and he's likely TO rob-
Away with the man who finds fault with his
Job
But give me the one with the sun In his face
And the shadows all dancing behind.
Who can meet reverses with calmness and
grace
And never forgets to be kind.
The State Superintendent writes
us:
In view Of the fact that we now
have a minimum term of only seven
months, permit me to suggest that
you urge upon the annual meeting to
set the second Monday In September
as the date of the opening OF the
seven months school: Itwould please
me also II all contracts we're made
with teachers to begin school this
fall the same date. All reports could
be sent In on the same date, All BIZ
monthly examinations could begin on
the same date There would be a un-
iformitY in the normal schools that
would be helpful to both teachers and
superintendent. Beginning school
September 18th, fifteen weeks could
be taught before Christmas and CIV
Ing one weeks vacation then school
would close the last of March. This
will give the older children plenty Of
time to help plant the crops and do
other farm work. In unity there Is
strength. Come let us all work to-
gether for the best good of all. II a
later date is better suited to this
part of Kansas than the second Mon
day in September let us all unite on
that date. Maybe the third Monday
would suit this country best, Let US
try to try to have the schools begin
as near the same day.

Mr.. Geo. Sallee of district No IA.
Blue Bell district called to talk over
matters pertaining to school. He
lives so far from school he was wish
ing that there was some way that we
could plan so that he could send his
children to school next year. He
lives over three miles from the school
and his oldest child Is too young to
young to send.
Are you willing to forget what you
have done for other people, and re-
member what other people have done
for your Are you willing to stoop
down and consider the needs-of little
children and remember the weakness
and lOnllness OF people who are sick
or are growing old. Then you can
not only observe Christian memorial
days, but truly keep them. And II
for one day why not for all days.

card. We are glad to be remembered
by our former pupils.
