lowed up the work recently inaug-

Dor Forum in their struggle to re-
tain the use of the school room for
their regular evening meetings. Miss
Wilson'S work may have tendency
to nationalize what at first was a mat
ter concerning only the District of
Columbia. 1t appears that the school
board in Washington refused to per
nit the parents to continue their
meetings in ten of the school build
ings and there was a sensation in
the capital when the president S
daughter demanded to know whether
the schools belonged 10 the people to
do with as they liked. or whether
they were the properly of the school
board. She has carried her fight to
congress, where a bill is pending
compelling the schooi board to per.
NIT the use of the schools for the
parents meetings. Such a law would
apply only to the city of Washington
In following up her work in New

Bad Roads.

The roads that lead to Hay
seed Center make peoples tenn
pers warm; in vain, in vain, with
voice of stentor, | clamor for re-
form. The roads are full of holes
and ridges, that bust our costly
tires, and there are sway-backed,
creaking bridges, together tied
with wires. We have a lovely
growing city, at which the tour
lists shy; and it seems seven times
a pity bad roads must black her
eye. Our city hall is rich with
gliding, we've churches and we've
schools, and our large new gym
nasium building is fixed with
swimming pools. We have a
bank and three physicians, and in
our public square there is stand
where our musicians play tunes
beyond compare. We ought to
grow, and yet we're shrunken,
because our roads are bad, for
folks won't corne-unless they're
drunken-to see our lovely grad.
And still we'll fool away our
taxes, and have our roads a
wreck, till we apply our little
axes to some official neck.

NO MONEY YET TO OPEN
THREE NEW SCHOOLS
Authorities Can Accommodate 6.1OO
Pupils if Appropriations
Are Available.

School authorities are much con-
cerned about proper appropriations for
the opening of three new schools, the
Central High School, the Park View
School and the new Dunbar High
School. All these will occupy their
new buildings this fall if Congress
makes the proper appropriations.
The public schools open September
IS. 1t is feared that if money is not
forthcoming for the new schools they
will be forced to occupy their old
buildings.
The new Central High School will be
able to house $500 pupils. If the new
building is opened it is believed that
fully 1000 pupils will matriculate this
fall.
The new Dunbar High School will
have a capacity of 1900 students. The
Park View School is sixteen-room
building
Little doubt is felt by school officials
that the schools will open Septem Der

this season, despite the advance in cost
to publishers. is the promise of local
dealers, who say that publishers them
selves will bear the increased cost
1t is stated that the publishers have
generally agreed to stand the in
creased cost in order that no extra
harships may be imposed on those who
are struggling for an education. Profits
to the publishers will, therefore. be re-
duced materially, in many instances be-
ing practically wiped out.
Local booksellers predict an increase
of approximately 10 per cent on all
other books this fall. although publish
