possible for customers to go to a

DURING NEXT TERM

A farm mechanics course may be
added TO the high school next year
under the joint supervision of r. E.

ing department, and of Virgil Fendell,
head OF the agriculture department
AT the meeting OF the board last
evening the addition OF this course
was considered. To Mr.. Chloupek

Mr.. Chloupek last evening submitted

The total expense of the department
exclusive of salaries, was $124S.5S.
There was collected in fees $5147O.
Lumber used for the district to the
amount of $11467 is charged off from
the expenses and lumber and furni-

the manhood of America was called
upon to decide whether this should
he a nation. Half a century ago AM
orleans were forced 10 determine
whether this should continue to be
nation. Today the republic faces a
third crisis no less momentous than
that of 1916 or that of 1860. Today
Americans must again determine
whether it shall have national soul,
whether it shall stand forth as a
mighty and undivided force, whether
the United States for which Washing
ton fought and for which Lincoln died
shall hold its place among the nations
For two years the world has been
Gfire; the civilization that we know
has been torn by the mightiest strug-
gle IN its history. Sparks from Eu-
ropes conflagration have blazed in
our own skies, echoes of her strife
have sounded at our very doors. That
fire still burns, that struggle still con-
tinues, but thus far the United States
has held the flame at bay; thus far
it has saved its people from particle
patton in the conflict
What the people of the United
States must determine through their
suffrage is whether the course the
country has pursued through this cru
cial period is to be continued; wheth-
er the principles that have been as
serted as our national policy shall
be endorsed or withdrawn.
This is the paramount issue. No
lesser issue must cloud it, no unrelat
ed problems must confuse it
In the submission or this issue TO
the electorate we, of this convention,
hold these truths to be self-evident To
every student of Americas history.

past. by the logic of It's present and
