In This Case Examiner Required No
Pledge That Student Had Done
the Work Itself.

At certain college custom ordains
that at examination time each of the
candidates shall write the following
pledge at the bottom of his papers:
Il hereby declare, on my honor, that

sistance during the examination
One student. after handing in one
of the papers, suddenly remembered
that in his haste he had omitted to
write the oath On the following day
he sought out one of the examiners
and told him that he had forgotten
to put the required pledge on his pa
per.
The examiner looked at him over
the top of his glasses and dryly re-
marked:
Quite unnecessary. Your paper in
itself is sufficient evidence. I've just

scalp scaly. At times there were
pimples on my scalp. The pimples
were small and red, would tester, dry

pimples and itching. Dandruff scaled

formed with the object of benefitinE
the lives of the men and women who
earn their daily bread by their daily
toll. There is not a right-hearted
man or woman who does not take
kindly interest in the welfare of the
workers, and who will not rejoice
with them in their demonstrations,
and wish for them sunny skies and
faVoring breezes and faith in the
good purposes OF their neighbors who,
though not marching with them in
their parades, yet wish them album
dant reward for their toll, just treat
ment by those whom they serve, ample
protection from the law and happy
lives in comfortable homes.
Days for Rest or Rejoicing.
There is no national holiday in the
United States by act of congress; but
there are many days-New Years day,
Christmas day, Thanksgiving day, the
Fourth of July, Election day, Labor
day, Sunday and yet other days that
are generally observed, and for which
it has been thought there was no ne
cessity for statutory permission. Be
sides these days, which are observed
everywhere, there are state and sec
tional days on which men refrain
from labor that they may know each
other better and refresh their souls by
keeping the fires of patriotism or
memory burning, and no day that is so
spent is ever wasted. Men have been
given hands wherewith to work; but
they have also been given hearts to
feel and souls to catch the spirit of the
eternal promise that there is land
of pure delight just across the bor-
der, where the wicked will cease from
troubling and the weary shall be at
rest. There the servant will be free
from his master, and they who have
walked in darkness will walk in the
light, and the dweller in cabin or
howell will wear soft clothing in the
house Of the King.
Commands Given to All.
Thou shalt not covet," thou shalt
not steal" thou shalt not bear false
witness" thou shalt not kill" These
are the commands given to all men.
They who Cypress the poor, who exact
toll without paying the laborer the
worth of his hire, who make gain by
false weights, who esteem themselves
better than their neighbors will be
brought into judgment before court
from which there is no appeal. There
is no virtue in poverty; neither is
there justification in great riches. The
law is made for the rich as well as the
poor. This is worth thinking about to-
day. and also the warning that they
that take the sword shall perish with
the sword"

SISTERS TRICK
But 1t All Came Out Right.

How a sister played trick that
brought rosy health to a coffee fiend
is an interesting tale:
Il was a coffee fiend-a trembling
nervous. physical wreck, yet clinging
to the poison that stole away my
strength. | Knocked at Postum and
would have none of it.
"one day my sister substituted a
cup of piping hot Postum for my morn
ing cup OF coffee but did not tell me
what it was. / noticed the richness
of it and remarked that the coffee
tasted fine but my sister did not tell
me / was drinking Postum for fear |
might not take any more.
She kept the secret and kept Civ
ing me Postum instead of coffee until
! grew stronger, more tireless, got a
better color in my sallow cheeks and
a clearness to my eyes, then she told
me of the health-giving, nerve
strengthening life-saver she had given
me in place Of my morning coffee.
From that time l became disciple

TIE WORKERS RETURNING
BY WILBUR D. NEsBIT

BY WILBUR D. NESBIT
n~FIE suns final splendor is burning
W A flame on the forge of the west
When come all the workers returning
Each worn from his separate quest
They come from the clash and the clarnor
OF factory structure and street,
All day have the sledge and the hammer
Kept time with their rhythmical beat.
1.-THE workers. broad-breasted and brawny
w. With hair lying sleek in the sweat
With faces and shoulders all tawny-
And all Of the world in their debt,
They fare to the uttermOst regions,
They delve in the depths Of the earth
The lealest and lOyalest legions
That give to the world Of their worth.
1.-THE drearners may dream but the doors
W Must change all the creams into deeds
The forgemen, the cirillers, the hewers.
Forever are filing our needs.
And in their returning their laughter
Is sturdy and stanch as their toll
AS stout as the beam or the rafter
Of gnder or truss where they mol.
m IS they that have spanned by their labor
W The desert the plain and the sea,
lis they that made you neighbor
To all the strange peoples that be.
And who shall have pride at the ending
Of dreanaing and planning and deed?
Whose striving shall need no defending,
And who shall go straight to his need?
~NGOR some are the lump, some the leaven
~ That gives it the breath and the life
Then they shall march bold into heaven,
The men that face stresses and strife.
The stars round the gate shall be burning
AS blazes the sun in the west,
When home come the workers returning
Each worn from his separate quest.

Now it must be apparent to every
one that II the legislature shall make
ana continue to make so called mill
ieVies for specific purposes and there
oy cut down the levy that can be made
Tor the general fund. and shall also
continue to make appropriations from

maintain and support the state gov

and that time has arrived. when q halt
must be called.
There has been no thought on the
part Of the state board of equaliza-
ton or any member of 1t, to harm
any educational institution, but there
has been the thought that they, the
educational institutions should run
with more economy than they do, that
they should curtail expenses and
stand their part of the policy of re-
the policy that is required of other
branches of the state government, and
that has to be practiced by the great
majority OF the tax payers Of the state.
To raise, this shortage in the gen.
eral fund of the state, of approximate
~ $3OO,0Oo. would require under the
three mill levy for the general fund
an increase in the assessed valuation
Of the property of the state by one
hundred millions Of dollars. AS the
assessed value Of the state is now a
little over $500, 1000 900 it would mean
to increase the assessment 33 1-3 per
cent. Every farmer and business
mans assessment would 20 up one
third. 1t would increase the county,
officers salaries in over forty coun-
ties of the state by manv thousands Of
dollars, as county officers salaries are
based on the assessed valuation Of
their counties. 1t would increase the
money taken from the people under
the educational mill tax and the other
mill tax levies by $150.000. It would
also raise the debt limit of villages,
cities and school districts in a dan
gerous degree. The board felt that
the right thing to do was to levy the
four mills as provided by the state
constitution, to levy three mills for the
general fund and to divide the one
mill remaining pro-rara among the
