Mr.. Editor:


Please spare me small space in
the columns Of your valuable paper
for a few struggling remarks from
he distant north eastern section of
the county.
Just few remarks pertaining to
school matters as they have been.
Have we not sat still, folded our
arms and abused long enough.
Should not somebody take hold in
earnest. The mothers and fathers
do not show the interest that they
would sometimes from the fact that
they excuse themselves by saving
We have eachers employd to do our
work. The fact is. none should be
satisfied until the very bes: results
possible have been attained.
There is one thing very noticeable
about some Of our schools and this Is
that all teachers, pupils and parents
are stirring against the common good
Of the community in oder to accom-
plish in the end what the world sees
among them to be a personal griev-
ance, ultimately bringing about con-
fusion which is the unwise thing
to do.
The board should be the back
bone Of the school. It should be
composed Of our best informed, the
deepest thinkers and most progress
sive men, regardless OF factlonal
feelings. Don't be afraid to take
action in matters Of vital concern.
Don't be afraid Of making anybody
mad. Some people will stay mad
whether you bother them or not
They are perpetual knockers. 1t is
almost an unexcusable calamity to
allow our children to grow up de-
void of the higher element Of know
ledge which our schools alone next
to our homes, can give. No one
should be allowed to teach as a
pastime or to collect spending money
on which to dress. It is to be deplored
that we lack cooperation in our
community and a better feeling
should exist. II for no other reason
1t should be for the specific sympathy
that we manifest for st. Peter who
will be confronted at The gate with
such tangle Of facticnalism that
his think pot Will be overwhelming.

IT. r. FLATLY DECLINES
TO TALK ABOUT ROOT.
Tells Two Republican and One Pro.
gressiVe Delegates He Has De.
~" ScrI6ed His Candidate. =.

f. Oyster Bay, May: 3.-The candidacy
of ElihaD Root for the Republican Pres
dental nomination is one feature of
the political situation that Col. Roose-
welt Wfh not discuss.
astFoPireasons unexplained, the Colonel
will not say what he will do In the
event Of Mr.. Roots nomination at
Chicago. > "a -
strenuous efforts was made today
by guests at Sycamore Hill to draw
out the Colonel on this point. Nothing
doing. Two Of these guests were Re-
publfcans and delegates to the Nation
al convention; a third was l. Progress
ks~iEea&tsoSa delegate.%1 8 & -
These threecare~ for Roosevelt and
most Observation-Disclosures Mr.. Root;
the two Republicans arguing that Mr..
Root could not be elected, and the
Progressive insisting that there should
be no union of P~rogressives and Re-
|pub1icans on n ticket headed by him.
They put this question squarely up to
the Colonel:
"What are you going to do if the
Republican party nominate Mr.. Root
the 7catastrUphe'o of 1912 ?"-or words to
that effect. /"
Did they receive a direct answer?
They-did-NOT-
On the contrary Col. Roosevelt sur
his questioners with a refusal
to discuss the candidacy OF Mr.. Root
or any other man.
The Colonel went on to explain that
he had adhered to this policy from
the outset and would stick to it, be
that the statement issued by him last
Monday upon his return from Chicago
learly revealed the only kind of man
who would receive his support.
The official specifications Of the
.ColoneI's men are: One upon whom
-Progressives and Republicans can
combine; who can win the ~independ-
ent vote. and who a be trusted when
elected, to put the Roosevelt principles
and policies, into effect.
Beyond this the Colonel would not
go today. but his visitors went away
All of them agreed that Mr.. Root did
not fill the announced specifications.

Not smiling, not mere good humor4

and shaking like a rapid-fire gun, I'M
til the massed battalions of worry are

To laugh is probably the best med
icine ever discovered. One hearty
laugh is better than a w~agonload of
roots and herbs, better than seven
drugstores full of dope. ?
There is not" says the London

body that does not feel some wavelet
from the great FconYulsion produced
by the hearty shaking of the central
man. The blood moves rapidly, and
probably it's chemical, electrical, or
vital condition, is distinctly modified
In other words, one good laugh is
equal to a lose of salts, two cocktails.
a bromoseltzer, and a spoonful OF
quinine.
If you have got into such a condition
that nothing car make you have a fl
