MEN PREFER SMALL CITIES

Under this head the Lansing Press
gives an editorial well worth consid-
ering, and applicable to this city as
well as the capital city. 1t says
"A great deal is said and written
about the desirability of living in
great cities but as a matter Of fact
there are no such hings-simply be-
cause men will not live i'm them
Even the great city is but n unison Of
communities like this. London, the
greatest city in the world grew out
Of a collection Of villages which still
retain much OF their old Identities.
Investigate Chicago or New York or
any other great city and one will find
that, while men will huddle within a
small area for purposes Of business,
tnty insist ON get ing out into the
suburbs or into Independent residen-
tial sections for the purpose Of liv-
ing and OF making their homes.
Now, living is the most important
business that man has TO do, He
picks out a place for il with the same
care that he picks out a location for
a factory, a store or an office; and.
when it is possible for him to pick out
the place that he likes the best. he
picks out a small city. unless he is
ono OF tnose persons Tho think that
JOY is TO be found i'm a cabaret and
pleasure in n throng. If the normal
man cannot take up his residence i'm
small community, that is his dream
OF the future.
Certainly those Of us whose lines
are cast in smaller cities therefore
ought to congratulate ourselves. We
have here one Of the best cides in the
world, at least well in .he making.
/ v do not have 20 move 10 "A metro
4 polls to be happy, If our tastes and
our desires are normal We can
make ourselves happy and the whole
/ city happy by trying to make this
not a big city so much as a good
/ one"

SCHOOL OFFICERS
OF RURAL SCHOOLS
WILL MEET SOON

State Superintendent of Public In
struction Mr.. Keller has sent to the
Banner the following statement on
county school officers meetings.
The county school officers meet
ings will be held this year as far as
possible throughout the state during
December, January and February
During these months there is little
pressing work in rural communities
and the attendance is consequently
the largest. The dates are fixed by
the superintendent of Public Instruc-
ton and the calls are sent out by the
county school commissioners
II sometimes happens that because
of railroads and train connections
school officers are put to considerable
inconvenience and expense to attend
the meeting in their own county where
the meeting place of an adjoining
county is easily accessible. In such
cases il might be well to note that
these officers may attend the meeting
in the adjoining county, receiving the
same credit and compensation. How
ever school officers attending meetings
outside their own counties should take
two certificates Of attendance and file
one with their school commissioner in
order that he may check up and give
credit to all districts.
In the past years the attendance of
school officers has come to be uni
formly large. Relatively few boards
are not represented. Township clerks
too are finding the discussions at these
meetings helpful to them in their
work in connection with the schools.
AS school officers are now pretty well
versed in school law more attention
is being directed to lines Of school
policy, administration, instructor
community work. and the vitalizing
factors and agences of the school
This year a cordial invitation is eX-
tended to patrons. The meetings
should be utilized in the alrgest pos
sible way TO bring together state.
county and district in the building up
Of strong loyal school sentiment that
shall increase the support and the
efficiency OF the school.

Judge George Thomas, Of Columbus,
Neb., recently decided that if a man
accepts a paper that is sent him he
must pay for it. The decision was
rendered in the case brought by the
Columbus (Neb.) Telegram against a
man for $2.35. The Telegram had
been sent To the mans home and he
had accepted the paper. When called
upon to pay for it he refused and suit
was brought. When Judge Thomas
heard the evidence he instructed the
jury to bring in verdict for the Tele-
gram. Judge Thomas ruled that the

hence will be missed from the holiday
dinners this winter. The imported

in but few of the markets. and the
