THE II GIRL"

From die Tipton Nnd.l Times.

From the Upton tlnd.) Times.
Over In Akron, Ohio. 400 bright, young
misses OF the class rooms are waging war
ON snobbery. They are giving the other
girl a chanc
Fou hundred strong. they have voted
unanimously to adopt a school uniform.
and Incidentally, they hav tahooed the
smart designs OF fashion, which a select
few had exhibited at the expense OF pride
widowed mother, perhaps. was pinching
the family income to give her the best ed
ucation the city had to offer.
And the uniform they have adopted
costs no more than S. II the garments are
sewed at home. 1t consists of a MILDLY
blouse and II plain, blue skirt.
A MILDLY blouse me a plain blue skirt.
school girls are really going to school to
learn something. doesn', 1t: And 1t APP
pears that already they have learned Il
good deal. doesn't 1t?
But IL is al extraordinary lesson those
400 girls are preaching to the world.
1t all came about after the occurrence.
of one of the incidents which happen ever
go often IN amy school attended by girls
who have reached the age OF between IL
and ~ years.
One of those Akron. Ohio. high school
girls slipped into a class room. by mis-
take. and found a crumpled little piece OF
humanity. huddled up IN a class room
chair. her head buried in her hands, sob
bling.
She was one OF the other girls"
Day after day she had come TO school
wearing peculiarly out of style and much
worn frocks. \ fellow school girl had mo-
ffced 1t. as. perhaps, had many others.
but this particular school girl. possibly
not with any intentions of wounding the
feelings Of this certain "other girl" had
spoken of the condition and the word
had finally come around to the little piece
Of humanity. who now sobbingly told her
story To- her who had found her.
And it just happened that the one to
whom the story was told, although not
one of the other girls and not perhaps
the best dressed girl In the school. saw
the situation in it's true light and began
a fight to secure the uniform which now
has been adopted.
Now. In that school building. the one
who sobbed out her story is on an even
basis with the girl to whom she told II.
Now those girls who formerly wore such
pretty frocks and wasted many mOmen
admiring the dresses OF one another. are
intent upon their books. Now. IN that
school building. there Is greater fellow
ship and there Is real democracy.
1t must be repeated that this is an OK
traOrdinary lesson those girls are preach
ing to the world.
And will the world see the value in thai
lesson?t F..
At least it's something for school girls
to think about: It's something for parents
to consider. and It's something that should
be discussed at parent-teacher club meet
ings.

THE AGE OF SHAM

We are suffering from a chronic
epidemic of shams-not sham vir-
tues, but sham vices and sham alarms
-expounded and exaggerated by
sham radicals, sham socialists and
sham reformers. We have become
the prey of muckrakers and dema-
gogues, who minimize the big things
and magnify the little things. Scat
tered through all the varied walks of
public life, and especially in public
office, these professional alarmists
march about the country like roar
ing lions seeking whom they may de-
YOUR. They have no real interest in
the moral, or in the material prosper
ity of the country. They have no in
terest in any prosperity except their
own. Wise men have become like lit
tie children, afraid of the dark and
the bugabocs that these artists in
buncombe have created Eugene
Lamb Richards, in Leslie's.
