HIGH SCHOOL IN THE ARMORY
BUILDING.

To continue the high school in the
Clubbs building next year is, Of course, out
of the question With each holding only
half days session, scholarship has neceS-
sarily suffered; there is a possibility, in
deed, that the high school will lose its ac-
credited character even, as the grammar
school will not be able to fit its pupils for
the upper course.
Every days delay complicates the high
school problem. Accommodations for 400
bows and girls must be provided as soon as
possible; the high school has no funds for
building a temporary structure, and even
if it did, it could not be completed by
October
A special committee, appointed by the
school board, and consisting of MISS
Pauline, Reese, Mrs w. H. Crawford, Z.
c. Denny, Principal Rogers and SuPerin'
tendent Edwards, to report on the most
economical plan, after careful 1nvest1ga-
ton, recommended the use of the armory
and the second floor of the Bass building,
because the plan satisfied the three essen
tial conditions-low cost, adequacy OF &C
commedations, and the future.
That was on June 25. Adopting the re-
port, the school board appeared before the
county commissioners, and stating the
needs, asked permission to devote certain
portions of Armory hall to the purpose
mentioned That was on July B, and the
county board announced that it would
give a definite answer this coming Tuesday
assuming that the building inspectors re
port was favorable.
AS far as can be ascertained, there are nc
legal objections or obstacles to the plan
Neither Judge Bellinger nor Superinten-
dent Edwards would be disturbed. If the
county commissioners grant the perm1s
sion, they will commend themselves to the
gratitude of the tax payers, whose money
they will save.
TO put this plan into effect would cos
about 81, 900. A temporary building woulc
cost about S12,000-a saving of $4,000 a

matter.

We have no doubt that the board will
co-operate we hope that by speedy de
cision it will enable the necessary work o
rcmodeling to begin Immediately. There

WELLS ON THE RAMPAGE.

There is no more independent writer to-
day than the Englishmen, H. C. Wells.
Every time he takes his pen in hand he
writes something that stimulates to
thought, if not to bitter discussion. Just
at present a novel of his is being issued in
serial form that is bound to provoke much
argument on both sides Of the Atlantic
1t will do So especially in England, where
despite its essential democracy, the coun-
try still retains the gilded fgurehead of
kingship and where, despite religious toll
GRANGE, the established church still retains
its great power and privileges.
For Wells is pr:claiming in this new
Piece of fiction that out of this war will
come an era of republics and an age Of re-
Igion that will transcend the narrow con-
fines of creed.
Wells tried to project himself into space
and view this, our world, from afar. In
this frame of mind he is optimist rather
than pessimist. He sees an end to kings
and thrones. No more will few dynasts
be able to say whether the world shall be
plunged into bloody war or remain in
blessed peace The peoples will take unto
luGIuSelNc cS TIC power dllu IIIC@ON q 1IIIlNl1C
In the Same way, he has a ~rsion of what
is coming in the religious field. There will
not be less belief in God, but more. How
ever, he advances the theory that the pew
belief in God will not allow itself to be
confined by sects and creeds. 1t will be
something bigger, something broader,
| something more tolerant, something with
more of the spirit of the Christ in it than
anything we have known since Jesus
ceased to preach in the Holy Land.
Coming from a man who was once rated
as an agnostic, coming from a man stirred
to his depths by the awful world-tragedy
of which he is an unhappy witness, this
message is sure to be the theme Of many
an angry sermon.
But Wells will be happy. He will have
stirred men to think, and that, after ALL is
tie greatest duty of the writer who cares
more about the progress OF the world than
| the size of his own bank account.
