WESTON, June 17-Members OF
the county and city health boards
held a meeting a day or two ago and
took steps to have conditions out
Polk creek way made more sanitary.
That locality has long suffered from
insufficient drainage. The creek Is
itself sluggish one, and the water
in the channel each summer becomes
stagnant and impure. The health
authorities are now giving some dI-
rections which they believe will
bring about about better conditions
this year.
At 3 o'clock next Sunday after
noon the cornerstone Of the New
Catholic church and school building
will be laid with ceremonies led by
the Very Rev. o. H. Moye, vicar gen.
eral OF the diocese. Neighboring
pastors will be present to assist.
The sermon will be preached by the
Rev. Father Flanagan, of Grafton.
Father Flanagan has spoken in this
city in the past. and he is expected
to draw large crowd.
The Beechwood Park Amusement
Company has in contemplation the
construction of a swimming pool.
The company announces that tenta-

Civic Education.

More and greater arguments are
being advanced every day for bet
ter, more intelligent and conscien-
tlous citizenship. These all are dj /.
rected at the present-day voter. for
getting thatsit will be but a few wears

generation which is now in school.
some OF these will cast their ballots
in half decade or less.
School standards have been chang
ing. For a productive life Of maturi-
ty, students In the public schools are
being taught manual training, domes-
tic science and vocational prepara-
ton. But for intelligent and efficient
citizenship, unless we say that the
study Of Latin, history, grammar.
geometry, algebra, botany and phys
les prepare them, the pupils are MOI
trained whatever.
Meanwhile, citizenship demands
are growing more exacting and are
requiring more and more conscien-
tious and intelligent mastery of af-
fairs. More individuality m thinking
places a larger responsibility upon
the voter. Training, as result. be-
comes imperative II we are to have a
better citizenship and, based upon 1t.
better city. This training must be
independent and non-partisan and
the place to provide it Is in the pub
lie schools, where 1t may be given to
all. Nor should 1t be confined to tn.
high school for many future citizens
do not proceed beyond the grades.
Chief of all, civic education should
have its place in the schooIroom dur
ing the development of the approach
ing citizen.
Realization of these things have
led to the establishment in public
schools Of Lincoln, Neb., Evanston.
H., and Steubenville, o., of regular
courses in municipal government.
These are performing an enyiable
feat in actually training for citizen
ship. There has been demand for
such course in the Los Angeles
schools.
In these cases, public-spirited citi-
zens and even the public officials CO.
operate with the school officials and
teachers in providing lecturers, talks
and demonstrations of the city gov
crnnment. In Lincoln, prominent
business men give regular course OF
weekly lecturers which bring the stu
dents attention to the practical life
of the community. Kansas City, Mo-.
requires a knowledge of city govern
ment before the student may study
national government.
Elsewhere over the country, where
there is no citizenship training in the
schools, business men have realized
the urgent need for sclne form Of
child training and have organized
future citizens into clubs to learn by
cooperating with the business men
in real civic work.
Civic education deserves special at
tentton in this city.

The promise Of q spotless town are
still fresh In the minds of West Vir-
gtnians. Perhaps Fairmont Is spot
less, bu., II so, the prevailing color
now is black instead OF white. One is
driven to that inference, at least, by
the reports on civic conditions that are
being given by the Fairmont West Vir-
ginian.
The West Virginian now seeks re-
lief from the state legislature in be-
half Of its local constituency. II
wants men elected to the legislature
who will be pledged to some much
needed reforms. They should be
pledged" says the West virginian, Ito
so amend the city charter to provide
and insure that the so-caIled biparti-
san feature would not be standing
Joke.
They should pledge themselves to
so amend it" continues the West Vir-
ginian, so that there will be no longer
any doubt about its meaning when
It says that the commissioners shall
hold no other office or position that
will conflict with their duties and
should make it an offense punishable
by fine and Imprisonment to hold
any other office or position while re-
ceiving salary from the city.
They should pledge themselves TO
a provision making it impossible for
the commissioners to either sell the
old Fairrnont cemetery or the water
works plant
They should make it an offense
punishable by fine and imprisonment
to appoint officials against the spirit
and plain provisions OF the charter
for partisan reasons when the char
ter provides that all these appoint
ments shall be made without regard
to partisan distinction or control"
Pledges are also required for other
things to benefit the androgenous
municipality, among them election re-
forms. "a corrupt election board can
disfranchise a whole precinct" de-
ciares the West Vtrginian, "and there
is grave suspicion that such has beer
done many times in Fairmont in the
past"

seems to lead downward instead Of

Inherent in well-directed personal eff
fort along this line. The mechanic
trains his fingers, the runner his legs,

not train ones brain so that 1t will
operate to the best of its ability?
1t Is true that much school effort is
expended along this line. For IN
stance, the boy and girl are taught to
work out problems which they will
never use in ordinary business life,
simply to accustom their brains to
logical reasoning and sensible deduc-
tions. But many Of us neglect this
variety of mental gymnastics as we
grow older. We should not. We should
mt allow ourselves to run along in
