CHRISTMAS SHOPPING

Christmas shoppers will benefit
themselves and confer a favor upon
the merchants and clerks if they
will make their purchases early.
Nearly all the stores lave now re-
ceived their holiday stocks and it is
self evident that it will be easier t.
find just what you want while the
stocks are complete and the clerks
have time to display goods and make
helpful suggestions. This alone
should be a sufficient incentive 20
stimulate early shopping,
But there is another good reason
for doing your buying now and that
is to avoid the rush and thereby
make the work of the clerks easier.
As a rule so many people wait till
the last few days before Christmas tic
select their gifts. that in order to
accom- modate them the clerks have
to work so hard and so long that they
dread instead of anticipate the
holiday season.
Those who do their Christmas
shopping early will have the double
satisfaction of securing the nicest
gifts with the least trouble to them
selves and knowing that they are
lessening the work and worries of
the merchants and clerks

dIeman makes an excessive profit,
there are too many of them between
the producer and consumer, says an
expert in Farm and Home.
Various plans have been tried to
bring these two parties nearer to-
gether so that the consumer can buy
for less and the producer get more
than at present. Public markets are
being conducted successfully in many
cities to the advantage of all parties
concerned. They work better III
cities of 5000 to 10000 where dis
tances are not too great for buyers
to carry home their filled market
baskets. But in some large cities,
notably Washington, d. c., and Al
bany, n, Y, they have been success
fully conducted for many years
The high cost of living has been
the means of establishing many other
markets in recent months. The need
and success of these is explained BY
the experience of a workingman S
wife, who told me how much more
she could get for her money at the
market than she ever could at the
stores. and how the family could Gu
JOY many little things that they could
not afford at the old-time price.

Establishment of public market in Ok

and bags and take home enough for

The experience at Waterloo, la, a
city of 10000 people. is typical of
many others. A farmers market is
maintained where farmers may offc1

they can get, From 500 to 5000 pee

PROGRAM MUST BE CARRIED
OUT

A majority of the people of the
United States are not satisfied with
existing conditions In the recent
campaign each of the political parties
submitted a program of legislation
to better conditions. The voters Sc
lected the democratic program as the
best offered 1t is now up to the
democratic party to carry out that
program. If they fail to do it, the
party will and should receive the
same kind of treatment as would be
given an operate or theatrical COM
pany which had advertised to give a
certain performance, and then cut
part of it out or tried to present it
with a cast inferior to the one prom
ised.
1t is reported that President Will
son will call an extra session of con-
gross as soon as he assumes office
This is the right policy. The people
want to try out the legislation prom
ised by the democratic platform and
the sooner it is enacted the better
they will be pleased. They expect
the party to give the country what it
advertised and will not be satisfied
with something just as good. 3"
They are asking for bread and will
not accept a stone They are in no
humor to be put off with excuses
and eyasions. They will keep a close
watch upon the proceedings OF con
gress and will meet out swift and
sure punishment to any senator or
representative who fails to live up
to his pledges
If the democratic leaders devote
their time and energies to fighting
over the spoiis. the spoils will be
taken away from them. and their
lease of power will be short. The
time has come when party names
mean nothing to vast majority of
the voters, but party performances
mean everything. An appeal to sup
pert the party of jefferson and
Jackson will fall flat in the next
campaign, but an appeal to support
the party which passed a good tariff
bill and redeemed its pledges will go
home.
The surest and, in fact, the only
way for the democratic, or any other
party, to remain in power is by keep
ing faith with the country and
crystalizing wise and just policies
into law. The party which tries to
play politics and wage a sham battle
against special privileges is doomed.
Democratic congressman and senat-
ors had better go to Washington pre-
pared to shoot off something more
than blank cartridges. or they will
soon find themselves generals with
out an army.

Former Graduate Student of w. S. G..
Well Liked by Citizens of
Philippine Province


man, who, it will be remembered,
spent the year 1901 as a graduate
student here. will be interested in the
following article translated from La
Revolution, published at Cebu, P. l.
The translation is by Professor Ven
tresca. The article occupies the CEN
ter of the first page and displays
fine halftone portrait of Mr.. Muer-
man at its head:
JOHN c. MUERMAN
School Superintendent of the Division
of Cebu
Would La Revolution subject itself
to the charge of inconsistency by pub
fishing, contrary to its custom, the
likeness of an American functionary
appointed by the imperialist govern
ment within the present regime,
which so far does not satisfy any
Filipino? Not at all!
Mr.. Muerman belongs to the
board of education, that body which
has always relied upon the support
and sympathy of the people The
Filipinos have never been disposed
to curtail the expenses of this board,
When it has solicited funds our only
question has been, How much is
needed?"
So it was in 1907, on the day of
the election of deputies, our repre-
sentative for the Third district of
Cebu, in speech delivered before
the professors and students of our

high school, said: Il see in the
teaching staff not the army of adj
yenturers infesting the country to
subjugate and exploit our people, but
those who come to bring us knowl-
edge and who dispense to our young
people that holy wisdom"
For that reason, if any American
deserves my support it is the school
teacher, and l press his hand with
out reserve. For that very reason
we print the picture of Mr.. Muer-
man, the first one of any foreign
parsonage to appear in these col
umns.
superintendent Muerman is a
model of professors. Aside from his
extensive learning, the result of
long and assiduous study he has de-
voted himself to the teaching pro-
fession for 20 years or more. Gradu-
ating in the state of Ohio, his native
state, he at once began to teach.
For 10 years he was superintendent
of schools in the city of Moscow,
Idaho. Coming to the Philippines
in 1901, he began as assistant supers
intendent in Tayabas and then be-
came superintendent. In 1906 he
came to Cebu and has been our
superintendent since that time. The
greatest eulogy that can be offered
MIR. Muerman is that from his com
ing until now no teacher nor pupil
has laid word of complaint against
him. Such are his prudence and his
tact; such his skill in dealing with
our people. In the present calami-
tous times, when there are offensive
and tyranical superintendent who
go so far as to insist upon our adopt
