but that we are trying to nominate
candidates that will have the best
interests of the city and the taxpayers
at heart. We are opposed to building
a new high school at this time and
think that the ruins Of the old high
school building can be repaired for a
very small sum and made to do for at
least five years. and can be made
nSacticaGy freproof. After this 1t
will be ample time to talk about
building a new high school building
which will be credit to the city of
Fargo. We contend that the taxpay-
ers of Fargo are and will be burdened
enough with improvements for a few
years. Mayor Emery says in last
nights Forum that we must go slow
with improvements or we will prob
ably go backward. which we think is
point well taken as Mayor Emery
certainly knows what he is talking
about. We are all anxious to have
good school buildings for the educa-
ton and the protection Of our cHrE.
dren. and do not wish to hinder any,
thing that would retard the growth Of
the city and for the betterment of the
public in general. We. therefore, ask
the taxpayers and voters to consider
this matter thoroughly and weigh the
matter from both sides.

Pussy Willow.

Pussy Willow.
The brook is brimmed with melted
snow.
The maple sap is running,
And on the highest elm a crow
His big black wings is summing.
A close green bud the Mayflower lies
Upon its messy pillow;
And soft and low the south wind blows,
And through the bare fields calling
goes,
Come, Pussy, Pussy Willow;
Within your close brown wrapper stir,
Come out and show your silver fur;
Come. Pussy. Pussy Willow"
Soon red will bud the maple trees.
The bluebirds will be singing,
And yellow tassels in the breeze
Be from the poplars swinging:
And rosy will the Mayfowers lie
Upon their messy pillow,
But you must come the first Of all
Come. Pussy" is the south winds
cali
Come. Pussy. Pussy Willow:
A fairy gift to children dear.
The downy firstling OF the year
Come. Pussy, Pussy Willow"

Dandruff Surely
Destroys the Hair

Girls-if you want plenty of thick.
beautiful, glossy, silky hair, do by all
means get rid OF dandruff, for it will
starve your hair and ruin II IL you
don't.
1t doesn't do much good to try to
brush or wash it out Tho only sure
way to get rid Of dandrufE is to dissolve
1t, then you destroy it entirely. To do
this, get about four ounces Of ordinary
liquid arvon; apply it at night when
retiring: suse enough to moisten the
scalp and rub it in gently with the
finger tips.
BY morning, most If not all. Of your
dnndrun will be gone, and three or
four more applications viii completely
dissolve and entirely destroy every
single sign and trace OF 1t.
You viii find, too, that all itching
and digging of the scalp will stop, and
your hair viii look and feel hundred
times better. You can get liquid arvon
at any drug store. It is inexpensive
and four ounces Is all you win need,
mo matter how much dandruff you
have. This simple remedy never fails.

DEMOCRACY>REST
ON the TEACHERS

Machias. Me, July 2o.-State Super
Thomas, in an address before the gram
mar school students a Washington Nor
NAL school. Wednesday told the faculty
and students that the future of de-
mscracy rests with the teachers of the
state and nation. The burden has been
shifted from the shoulders of business
mon of the country to the slender
shoulders of the girls in their teens. I'm
mediate victory is to be won by the
boys if the trenches, but ultimate vic
tory by the teachers in our schools, The
boys will make the world safe for de-
mocracy. but the girls, the teachers of
the land, mustsmake democracy safe for
the world.
Supt. Thomas urger better prepara-
ton for the school room and greater
conservation to service in this hour of
need The schools must do their part
TO prepare for the REIMBURSEMENT when
the war is over The old idea of keeping
men ignorant in order to keep them
submissive has given place to a new
philosophy, the philosophy of universal
education that all men may be self
governing Education is the basis of
democracy.
The fact that the selective draft will
not reach the boys under 81 will give
opportunity for the young men to COM
plete the>hgh school and normal school
courses, unless the call of business,
which must in some measure suffer
from the call to the trenches, presses
too strongly upon the schools. The fu-
ture welfare OF the country demands
that the efficiency of the school be in
creased and that the courses of study be
adjusted to our industrial needs, he
said, in conclusion.
Eleven young men were graduated
from the Washington Normal school in
June; five of them are now in the navy.
All the other boys have secured fine po-
sitions as teachers. Two of them have
secured positions in the Madawaska
Training school. Mr.. Powers haA not
been able to fill onehaif the call for
trained teachers. The man or woman
who enters Washington Normal school
this fall and prepares for life work
in the school room, is serving his coun-
try as faithfully as do those who enter
the army or navy.

creased demands made upon the or
CARNATIONS, Penobscot County chap
ter, with headquarters in this city,
Fnds that IN common with the other
chapters that it will be necessary to
re-organize entirely the work in this
county
Within the last few months 20 aux
iliaries have been added to the Pc
nobscot chapter, in addition to num-
erous smaller societies, which have al
lied themselves with the Red Cross, in
one way or another.
While Penobscot County chapter ap-
preciates deeply the splendid work of
these various auxiliaries. it has not as
yet the facilities of making proper ex-
preston of its gratitude; and in some
instances, credit has been given to the
chapter alone in which the auxiliary
should have had a large share.
A committee about to be formed
which VIII deal directly with the aux
iliaries, furnishing them information
and expressing to them the immense
value of their cooperation.
Penobscot chapter is the only coun-
ty organization in the State, although
matters would be much simplified for
the division heads at Boston if chap
tiers were SO organized.
Articles are in preparation and will
shortly be published. which will give
gain of comparative achievements of
the different auxiliaries including the
drive for the war fund, and Until this
reorganization is effected, it is hoped
that the. cooperation of individuals
and auxiliaries will continue on the
same generous lines as in the past
