PREPAREDNESS.

The large crowds tfat are at- tending the closing entertani- ments of the school this week indicates that Ashdown is for preparedness - preparedness for life. Educational prepared ness should not be considered merely in a selfish sense, not merely as a means to earn a few more dollars or to live in a finer house. Education is a safeguard to the state and the notion. Intelligence, trained intelligence, is our greatest pro- lection against internal cor ruption. Civil despotism, crook edness and corruption are but the fruits of ignorance. Mexico is thc result of an ignorant population, which has been made the tools of designing and rotten leaders. To our mind the greatest thing that is taught in our schools is not the things learned in text books, but it is the proper ideals, the proper outlook on life and it's duties. The public school is Americas greatest institutions Without it . free democratic govern ment would not be possible. The enemy of the public school is an enemy of the state and an enemy of intellectual, civil and religious freedom. The ideals taught in our school have been raised in the past decade. We have learned that we cannot all be lawyers, statesmen, profess Sional men. We have learned that the world needs trained hands guided by trained minds in all the trades and profess ions- We have raised the dig nifty of labor, and we are learn ing 1t through our public
 r"-'r=
 schools. Ashdown has placed her school interests first.

HOME SUBJECTS
ARE DISCUSSED

Washington, Dec. 6.-President Will
sons address at the opening of the
session Of congress was wholly de-
voted to domestic subjects, principal
ly the problem of railway legislation.
In the hall of the house, with sem
ators and representatives assembled
in joint session, President Wilson, in
accordance with the custom he began
at the opening of his term, read his
address from the clerks desk.
The president not only renewed his
recommendation for legislation to
prevent a nationwide railway strike
or lockout before there has been op-
portunity for investigation, but de-
Tended it against the attack of orga-
nized labor as nothing arbitrary or
unjust and the "justifiable safeguard
ing by society of the necessary proc
esses of it's very life"

ASQU|TH LEAVES.
BRITISH CABINET

London, Dec, 6.-The government
crisis found a solution, which up to
the hour of its announcement was con-
sidered the least probable of prac-
teal alternatives.
Herbert H. Asquith resigned the pre-
miership, which he has held through
eight stormy years Of domestic and
foreign history.
The Unionist leader, Andrew Bonar
Law, was summoned to the palace i'm
mediately after Mr.. AsQuith had de-
parted and the king offered him the
prime minister's commission, which
he had just accepted from Mr.. AS
quith's hands.
No announcement regarding Mr..
Bonar Laws decision has yet been
made, and there were some doubts
whether he will accept the heavy re
s~ponsibility.
If he declines, It is considered GER
tain that the honor will fall to David
Lloyd. George. The continuation OF
the coalition cabinet, with some
changes In its membership, and the
speeding up of the war management
will be the policy in either event.
