As we enter upon the last week of
the political campaign 1t becomes more
evident that the voters of the United
States are considering their duty in the
most thoughtful and serleus manner.
There Is less of the huilabaioo and fam
faronade than Ina any campaign for
many years, but Il doesn't follow that
the people are not thinking, and think
Ing along right lines. They have had

THE POOR BOYS COLLEGE

THE public high school is the poor
= boys college. 1t was designed
especially for the benefit Of the
eoy~-or girl-who cannot afford. for
one reason or another, the expenses
or time of a four years college course.
The man Of means can, and frequently
does. send his son to private school
for preparation and afterward to coll
lege. The man of small salary for
the most part cannot do this He
must rely on the public school. II 1t
be good. his boy gets the chance To
which he is entitled. If 1t be badly
equipped and lacking In efficiency, the
poor boy is cheated of opportunities
for self-improvement that rightly be-
long to him.
That Is precisely what Harrisburg
has been doing for the past four or
five years, and what 1t Is doing now
cheating poor boys and girls of educa-
tiona1 advantages
This Is not nice thing to say, but
it is true, and we as voting body
ought to be ashamed of ourselves. We
have given the students of the Cen
they should have had two. We have
sacrificed them to a mill or two on
the tax rate That they have not suf-
fered more is due entirely to the
heroic efforts OF an overworked but
devoted teaching force that cannot
keep up forever the double duties It
is now performing. No teacher, how
ever conscientious. can do two days
work in one and perform both well.
And now we face either the passage
of a new High School loan or the
sacrifice of the Technical High School,
as well as the Central school, for next
Spring. unless facilities are increased,
the overcrowding process will begin
in that institution.
This is. in reality. poor mans loan.
The rank and file of the people, those
to whom the high school Is of vital
Importance, will receive the bulk of
the BENEFITS, while the bulk of the ex-
pense must fail upon the shoulders of
the big property owner.
There is not a more cosmopolitan
or democratic institution In the land
than the high school. There rich and
poor. foreign and native-born. sit side
by side and learn the great lesson of
Amerfcanfsm - that individual worth
is the only sure means OF advance
ment and that wealth and position
count for little against brain and
Drawn and the will to do. There
poor boys learn that rich boys NAV
be good or bad. bright or stupid,
strong or weak. and there rich boys
learn that the rank is but the guinea
stamp" and that "a mans a man for
a. that" It is the rich boys prepara-
tory school and the poor boys college.
1t should be made Just as good as we
can make it. Where the education of
our boys and girls is concerned the
best is none too good.

BIG JOKE
BY Wing Dinger

I've been of on an auto trip,
And while away did see
A lot of things that really seemed
A wee bit strange to me,
But of them all, I'd like to know
Why signs they will erect
Outside each town announcing what
Speed limit they'll expect,
Gee, wis, the streets in most the burgs
Are so darned bad, by heck,
You couldn't reach the speed allowed
Without broken neck,
