STATE SCHOOLS TO
HAVE NO DEFICITS

For the first time in many years,
the six State educational institutions
which have been under the manage
ment Of the State Board Of Educa-
ton for a little over year, will all
come before the legislature without
a deficit. Furthermore, at least three
of the six will have balances on hand,
aggregating not less than $4,000.
These are the figures which were pre-
sented to the members of the Board
at their special meeting in Boise last
week. 1t was indicated that when
the figures were compiled, further
creditable results might be found in
tho purchase Of fuel and supplies. Thi.
is the showing that the Bocrd will
make at the next legislature.
The absence Of deficits will prob
ably be more appreciated by the re-
turning legislators than by the newly
elected solons. In former years de-
ficits have been the rule rather than
the exception. while an actual surplus
was out Of ordinary.
Turning back SURPRISES which might
have been spent has not been Gus
tomary in the past, and the policy
has been questioned by some. But
the Board stands firmly to the prin-
ciple that expenditures arc wisely
made only when the outlay is timely
and necessary.
The State Board having deter
mined from the beginning to have
all institutions live within the ap.
preparations made by the legislature
followed out line of rigid supcrvi-
sion Of finances, taking at the same
time every care not to cripple or hn.
der the work Of the institutions.

GOOD ADVICE

While the numerous changes of
state laws are now being advocated
by the press of the state, little at
tention should be paid to the present
method of holding school district cleo
ton with the idea of taking the school
systems OF the state out of politics
and away from tho slightest 'oppor-
tunity to exploit school districts by in
dividuals or groups of individuals.
Under the present law. the election
and the nominating caucus are held
ut the same time. A few individuals
go to the school polling places and
there place their slate in nomination
and quietly try to put it over" on
the rest of the taxpayers in mat
ter that concerns everyone. The law
has been the means in many districts
OF building up school machines that
put to shame Tammany hall in the
ruthless disregard Of the wishes of
the whole people. Through niggardly
publicity, the election is not made
the common property of the voters
and taxpayers but of cliqucs Tho
result has not been good for tho
school systems and has created q feel
ing of contemp in the minds of those
in authority for the rights of the
school patrons. 1t is condition
that rapidly places a community or .
district with divided front toward
tho most important system of the
community. One camp and its fol-
lowers favoring those who are in for
various reasons. with the other camp
opposing owing to a feeling that they
have been imposed upon. Bond is
sues Of vital importance to the whole
people have been defeated through no
reason save Indignation against those
who are carrying on the school af-
fairs. It will not be hard for tho
people of any county in this state to
bring to mind specific incidents along
these lines. It is all wrong. Tho
schools OF the state should not oe
made tho political property of cny
person or crowd. nor should they be
made the targets of those who must
protest against the methods adopted.
The Times believes that a better
form of election law should be passed
which will call for a school caucus
at least ten days prior to the regular
election at which caucus, at least two
tickets shall be put in nomination,
and the names of the nominees given
full publicity with the idea of get

FROM THE CANNERY

A junk dealer from the middle west
had heard that Ford, the auto manu-
facturer. used tin cans in the con-
struction Of his car. He gathered
up several hundred tomato. sauer
kraut and oyster cans and sent them
to the Ford factory along with .
request that they DO made into an
auto. A week later he received a
Ford by freight and a check for
$3.50 by mail. Ho had sent in too
many cans.

them, "R ender
therefore unto Caesar the things that
are Caesars; and unto God the things
that are Gods" No wonder they mar
veled at such an answer!
"Ths Things That Are caesars!"
Nor can we say that the Master dodg-
ed the question shrewdly. His answer
was the truth, in every sense Of the
word fully in harmony with all His
teachings. His followers were in
structed not to be seditious. not to be
quarrelsome. fault-fnding. but to be
thankful. holy. happy. subject to 1.-THE
powers that be-" They were to recog-
nize that these powers are ordained of
God, and not merely of men.
True. indeed. earthly kingdoms are
not Gods kingdoms. as sometimes they
claim. True. indeed, they sometimes
foster sin. iniquity. unrighteousness.
and are largely. from outward appear
ance. the result of human scheming
and wickedness. Nevertheless. Gods
people are to recognize that Jehovah
is the great Overload: and that He
exercises such supervision Of human
affairs as justifies the statement that
He ordains. authorizes. permits. these
kingdoms. Whatever, therefore. the
Heavenly Father has authorized. none
of His obedient children should think
for even q moment of resisting or over
turning.
In the case Of the Roman Empire. Of
which Caesar was head. centuries be-
fore God had foretold through the
prophecy of Daniel its rise to universal
dominion. It was not, therefore, for
Jesus or any of His disciples to speak
against representatives Of that Roman
power. If Rome ruled. Rome should
be supported: and the method of sup
port was. properly enough. through
taxation. How just. then. were Jesus
words! We remember that the Master
Himself paid tribute, instructing st.
Peter, when they had no money. to
catch fish. and from it's mouth OBJ
tain the coin necessary for his taxation
and that of Jesus.
Render Unto God His Due.
Had the questioners been intent upon
rendering to God their obligation due
Him. they would have been in SO differ
ent a frame of mind that. instead Of
seeking to entrap Jesus in His words.
they would have been glad to be His
disciples. What things. then. are
Gods? We answer that as His crea.
lures we are His. Every talent and
power we possess ought to be used in
the service of our Creator and for His
praise.
Additionally. we who recognize the
fact that by nature we are sinners. and
that Gods mercy has provided re-
demption through Christ. should glad
ly present our bodies living sacrifice.
