By GEORGE w PERKINS.

earn and pay dividends. Why should
We not expect at least as much Of our
educational system?
As a matter of fact. our educational
systems do earn and pay dividends. and
the dividends are getting bigger and
bigger all the while We have now
reached a point where we are gathering
in the results-results not only from
the education that comes through book
learning, but the education that comes
through travel, through contact with
people, through accommodation.
You hear many people saying Just
now, What is all this hubbub about?
Why this sudden demand for a larger
and more direct participation in munic
ipal. state and national political af-
fairs"
The answer is that you have first
to SOW the seed and then reap the har-
vest, and it sometimes seems a good
while from seeding time to harvest
time, but progress is being made lust
the same.
The crops grow gradually, but with
good soil, good seed, proper cultiva-
ton and average rain and sunshine
the day is bound to come when YOU
must garner in your crop or allow
all the work. all the care. all the ex-
pense, all the blessings Of rain and
sunshine to go to waste. There are
many cloudy days; there may be either
too much rain or too much sunshine:
but finally the crops come on with a
rush and the day Of the harvest ar
rtYeS. The time of actual garnering
a n HlN- II
farmer knows almost the exact hour
when he must put i'm the sickle or lose
his crops
The same process applies to many
affairs of life and the Progressive par
" Is indeed made up of men and wom-
en- unafraid-unafrai because. through
the educational seed that has been soWn
in good soil, they know that the time
has come TO harvest the crop. and the
Progressive party is the machine that
proposes TO garner Ii at the hour when
il is ripe for the harvest.
In place Of very many good people
In this country being alarmed AT what
the harvest is going to be- they should
reloice, because We are moving for
ward. not backward. II is distinctly
and tn all respects a progressive move

our Interpretation is to allow the
Council the right to name a Sew

posed Sewerage System as con
templa ed by the Council. Under
the present charter which the
Council will work under until the

to have an independent board to

is presently constituted the abut-

sewerage is erected would have
to pay one-third the cost, the re
naming third to be borne 10y the

will also be changed to the prop
