Tabor School Notes.
BY G. G. Fites.

The County Superintendent
made an official visit to our schools
last Thursday.
We still have few cases of non
attendance which we hope will be
taken care of before the report is
made to the truant officer.
Parents should warn their child
rem of the danger that is often en-
countered by the children when
crossing the railroad tracks at
train time.
The extra ringing of the bell on
Tuesday was caused by the janitor
while he was replacing the old
rope with a new one.
The new window shades that
were put up in the High School
room on Monday have made big
improvement to the room.
Our first month closed last Friday
with series of examinations in
the various grades. The reports
will be ready for the pupils by
the close of this week, and the
teachers hope that the parents will
examine these reports very care
fully when brought home for in
spection.
The third grade pupils are hav-
ing addition contests which are
bringing forth much interest
among the pupils in that grade.
Joseph Noll was the leader of the
winning side the past week. ~
In the High School and Gram
mar grades, the following pupils
we're mere neither absent nor tardy
during the first month: Blanche
Haney, Joseph S. Petrik, Helen

UNIVERSAL PEACE

This nation is now in the midst of
n controversy as to how best TO pro-
mote universal peace. That question
we will leave for diplomats TO dis
cuss, but peace within nations is no
less important than peace between
nations and IL is heavily laden with
prosperity for every citizen within
our commonwealth.
Many leading politicians and ofttimes
political platforms have declared war
upon business and no cabinet crisis
ever resulted. Many men have stood
in high places and hurled gas bombs"
at industry: thrust bayonets into bus
mess enterprises and bombarded ag-
riculture with Indifference Party
leaders have many times broken dip.
lomatic relations with industry sent
political aviators spying through the
affairs OF business and political sub.
marines have sent torpedoes crushing
into the destiny OF commerce Dur
ing the past quarter OF century we
have fought many a duel with prog.
ress, permitted many politicians 70
carry on a guerrilla warfare against
civilization and point a pistol at the
heart OF honest enterprise.
No man should be permitted to cry
out for universal peace until his rec
ord has been searched for explosives.
for no vessel armed or laden with
munitions of war should be given a
clearance TO sail for the port OF Uni
yersal Peace. Let us by all means
have peace. but peace. like charity,
should begin AZ home.

GRASPIHG At THE SHADOW

No man-especially IL he is mar

THE COUNTY FAIR
BY Peter Rsdford.

When you enter the agricultural de-
partment OF the county fair you feel
your soul uplifted and your life takes
on a new power-that Is the inspira-
ton OF the soil. You are overpowered
by the grandeur and magnificence OF
the scene-that Is the spirit OF the
harvest. You can hear the voice OF
nature calling you back TO the soil
that is opportunity knocking at your
door. IL is a good chance TO spend
quiet hour In contact with the purity
and perfection OF nature and TO sweet
en- your life with it's fragrance, elevate
your ideals with It's beauty and expand
your imagination with it's power.
These products as food are 1T for
the gods, and as an article OF com.
merce they ought to bring tip-top
prices on any market in the world.
The products OF the soil are teachers
and preachers as we'll. Their beauty
gives human life its first entertain
ment, their perfection stirs the genius
IN artists; their purity furnishes mod
els for growth OF character and their
marvellous achievements excite our
curiosity and we inquire into the won
derful process Of nature.
Before leaving the parlor OF agricul-
ture where nature is parading In her
most graceful attire and science is
climbing the giddy heights OF perfec-
ton. let us pause and take a retro
spectiye view How many OF you
know that after these wonderful prod
acts are raised, they can seldom be
marketed at a profit? Take the blush
Ing liberia. for example-they We're
fed to the hogs by the carload last
year The onion-the nations fayorite
yegetable-every year rots by the
acre In the Southwest for want OF a
market and as a result hundreds OF
farmers have lost their homes. Cot
ton-nature's capitalization goes
begging on the market at less than
cost OF production.
IL is great TO wander through the
exhibits while the band is playing
Dixie" and boast OF the marvellous
fertility OF the soil and pride ourselves
on our ability TO master science, but
1t is also well TO remember that there
is market side to agriculture that
does not reflect It's hardships in the
exhibits at a county fair

Cattarrhl Deafness Cannot BE Cured
by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way TO cure catar-
rhal deafness, and that is by consti-
tutional remedy. Catarrhal Deafness
is caused by an infiamed condition OF
the mucous lining Of the Eustachian
Tube. When this tube is inflamed you
have a rumbling sound or imperfect
hearing. and when It is entirely clos
ed, Deafness is the result. Unless the
inflammation can be reduced and this
tube restored to its normal condition.
hearing will be destroyed forever.
Many cases OF deafness are caused by
catarrh, which is an inflamed condi
ton OF the mucous surfaces. Hall

None of the telling that some of them
later betrayed when they had had OPP
portunity to digest the Colonel's state
ment had time to flare out when the
gavel fell. They trooped out into Chi
cago' s streets for home while the band
played faintly and the flags that had
Haunted SO proudly through all the
stormy sessions were folded and the
banners put away. Before they left
the hall the delegates remembered one
of the essentials Of a campaign. In
response to the spur of rhe leaders they
promised more than $4,000 to carry on
the fight. 1t was pledged in enthusi-
asm and the contributions tumbled in
almost as fast as they could be recoro-
ed.
The only protest of the day came a
few minutes before the leaders read
the announcement from Colonel Roo3e
welt when William Finn, of Pittsburg,
proposed the adoption of rule which
permits the National Committee to fill
vacancies on the ticket. There was a
chorus of "noes'' from over the hall,
but it was lost in the explanations Of
those who stood upon the platform that
this was but a perfunctory thing done
at all National Conventions to provide
for "death or other easualties.'' 1t
was adopted then Immediately.
The communication from oyster Bay,
known to all the leaders for at least
an hour before it was presented, was
read to the convention in a moment of
tense, dramatic silence. The gavel fell
with a last bang, almost as it
! finished.
