An Army That Doesn't Fight.

One who reads the official reports
sent out from London and Paris. and
from British or French sources in the
Balkans, would imagine that the
Greek people are so thoroughly in
sympathy with the Allies that no
danger exists in that quarter. Yet,
there is a situation at Saloniki which
tends to deny the statements that
Greek is safely "benevolently neutral"
The Allies have in and near Saloniki
an army Of approximately 100000
men. The army has had a year in
which to prepare for its role in the
war. But the army does nothing. rela-
tivey speaking. 1t did mot even seek
to save Roumahia. 1t remains idle,
when, to the onlooker, it might do so
much. General Sarrail. the command
err, is evidently held in cash by some
higher authority. No man could hold
a commission and act as he has done,
unless that action were required OF
him. An army OF million men is a
considerable army, even in the gigan-
tic conflict now raging. A million
men might turn the tide. Why, then,
does this army. collection OF British,
French, Russians and other national
tiles content itself with the capture
of Monastir? 1t could do much more,
If free to operate. There is something
which the censor keeps to himself. The
situation in the Balkans, in Greece,
especially. must be worse than it has
been represented. There is but one
other thing conceivable, and that is
that the Allies have planned some
great coup and are awaiting the time
to strike. The latter semes in.prob-
able. for in the meantime Roumania
is being overrun.

Salaries of Teachers.

But what about the salaries of teach.

that the teachers OF the country are
under paid. The cost OF essential
things such as clothes and food has
gone up for teachers, as well as for
others. But the teachers are not re.
ceiving adequate incomes. generally
speaking. The teachers do an invalu.
able work. They have under their
care the youth of the country. To
them we look to develop the potent.
ialities of the girls and the boys.
Surely there is no work more import.
ant than that of teaching. Why, then.
should we pay the teachers, the hold
ers Of important positions, relatively
small salaries. Ateacher must give
up number of years in preparation,
years that those who follow other

GOOD HAUL THE RESULT

The ninety-five men who hustled

Many of the men who signed up

Now that the work of the various

by r. S. Howell.
AMERICANS FIJI

Thirty-nine young high sehoo
Hughes workers who helped reduce
the Wilson majority in Nebraska
held a banquet at the Rome hote
last evening.
F. S. Howell, chairman of the re-
publican county central committee
gave them short talk. &C.
II regret that the latest returns
from our recent election have some
what cooled the ardor of the pre-elec-
ton republican spirit said Mr.,
Howell, but lesson Is to be learned
from one of these campaigns. After
the heat OF the battle has passed we
settle back into an American spirit,
"The campaign was partisan one
where we chose our would-be stand
ard bearer and followed the best
fight that we could to take him to
victory,
I'VE have in this room a type of
the American citizen and when you
are grown to manhood the future OF
the United States will rest in you.
I'VE sometimes lose dignity in po-
litical discussion, but when the cleo
ton is over and our president is
chosen it is the duty OF every patri-
otto citizen, regardless of preference
or for whom he may have worked,
to assist that president so far as it
is in his power so to do. If he then
does not measure up to your ideal,
cross swords with the party that put
him there, four years hence"
The boys showed their appreciation
and republican spirit by giving Mr..
Howell three cheers, followed by
their high school yell, The following
were in attendance:
