Comments on thes primary of
last Saturday, Gin this county,
will not reveal facts not now
known tolssthe readers of The
News, who participated in max
ing the three tickets to be voted
for in November, but to those
outside of our realm Emay be a
matter of .GNews. There being
no contests in the Republican
and Progressive tickets,for coun-
ty Offices, but little interest was
manifested, while the many who
sought Democratic nominations
were able to stir every part of
the county, andkto arouse an un-
usual interest, resulted in the
heaviest vote ever given in a
primary in thissscounty. In fact,
taking the gains made by the
Democratic party, it shows to be
gaining strength not contem-
plated by the most enthusiastic.
AS we see it the main purpose
of a State primary was to elm

ventious and party primaries
and to guarantee equal opportu-
nifty between aspirants. In 9th.

ures of the law claimed by its
advocates was to eliminate boss

have never believed it could be
done under such law, we have
never favored State regulation
of party action, and have never
believed that Ethe present law

An Educational Creed.

The State that has the men
has the present, and the State
that has the schools has the
future. A great Commonwealth
can not be bestowed; it must be
achieved through education. Our
commemorative idealization of
education is the result of the law
of self-preservation. 1t recog-
nizes its own being as an organ
ism composedsof,,spiritual atoms
that are capable of growth or
degeneration. intelligent patriot
ism or anarchy. 1t is natural for
our government to idealize an in
telligent, active, rational, ag-
gressivescitizen. 1t takes a full
grown mind to reach and a full
grown heart to feel a full. grown
democracy. 1t will take full
grown citizens to make a full
grown Kentucky. and a full
grown school system exploited
to the highest degree of social
and industrial efficiency to make
full. grown citizens. Our noble
boys and girls stand by our side
armed with ability and nerve
ready to accomplish the larger
Kentucky, if we will only give
them an opportunity. We greet
childhood to-day and recognize a
patriotic call for education ana
more abundant education. ideas,
and more noble ideas, more gov
eminent by the teacher and less
government by the policemen,
more government by the school
house and less government by
the military camp, more and bet
ter schools and fewer jails and
penitentiaries, more scholars and
fewer criminals, more freemem
and fewer slaves, more life and
still more life. We need more
life, and every patriot will join
in the great work of putting at
the door of every child in the
land a modern school house with
equipment and sanitation. dem
ocratic course of study, and a
teacher Of scholarship, character
and pers onality. We believe in
a public policy and efficiency that
will ring the moral, intellectual
and industrial rising bell" in
the life of every child in our
land.

The community betterment program
inaugurated by the Morgan Church is
taking on encouraging and definite
aspects. WI
Perhaps the most signal of the re-
cent advances is the organization OF a
Rural Young Peoples League; over
twenty-five of the leading young
people have enlisted in, this work.
The plans of the Rural League, will
be on the splendid lines of Epworth
League work and organization. But
in addition the League proposes to
make a study Of the needs of rural life
and will be in close touch with the
good ideas of the great country life'
forward movement at present making
such splendid Roadway in our nation.
A country life book shelf and a rural
branch of the state library will be kept
in the church. ... .......
UNCONVENTIONAL differences are lost
sight of in the practical program of
modern community service. The
church aims to benefit every home and
individual in the community that is
fair. minded enough to accept its sim
cere motives of being helpful in prac-
tical ways. ..-,n..o-.... .....,.......
