RED DAY

The Christmas time has passed
away; we're now approach
ing grounding day-that day mo-
mentous, fraught with fate, when
from his underground estate the
grounding comes and casts his
eyes upon the bleak midwinter
skies. And if the sun is shining
then, he goes into his hole again,
and says, "'Ods Fish, The storms
will roar and whoop around for six
weeks more!" But if dark clouds
obscure the sun, the grounding
says, Now springs begun, and II!
forsake my dingy lair and breathe
again the open air!' So let me
live and train my soul that when
the grounding leaves his hole he
will not find me unprepared, nor
by his stern decision shared. II
winters due to last while, may
| be found with goodly pile OF coal
and kindling for the CRATE; and if
the spring IS coming straight, may
| be fixed with rakes and hoes,
and garden seeds, and things like
those The prudent man plans in
advance, and then whatever luck
may chance he is not in a corner
caught. but he is Johnnie on the
spot. So do not sit and twirl your
thumbs, but, when the stately
grounding comes, predicting
weeks OF cold or heat. be sure he'll
End YOU on your feet.

BURDEN ON TEACHERS
Of PUBLIC SCHOOLS
Regulations Which Require Extra
Labor-Many Obliged to Work
Overtime.

When young woman is appointed as
a school teacher in the District, is she ex-
pected to be also an expert accountant
and human statistical machine?
That is the question. which many
teachers are asking as result of the
inventory system which was recently put
into effect in the public schools. This
system. 1t may be said, is not result OF
the actions of the school officials them
selves. but dates back to the Redfield
investigating committee and the appoint
ment of special engineer commissioner
by the President. 1t affects all branches
Of the District government.
