The School Teacher.

Little recognition is given the
school teacher during her service:
The public little knows the work and
strain incident to the service. we
expect the school teacher to render
the best service at all times ana YET
slider her work as different from or
binary exertions of life. We send our
children to the public schools to be
educated. We forget about it, con,
scious that our children are In GOOD
hands and that they will be educated
and trained to our satisfaction. II
they make progress in their studles,
mind favor upon the teacher? We
know the job we have at home tram
ing of the children. We give little
thought to the job the teachers have
at school training. Children are in
fluenced by their teachers as they
are influenced by their parents. 1t is
important that the teachers be com n
guide and mold. Let the adult look
back and consider what debt is due
the successful school teacher; 1t is
a debt in most every case that can
never be paid.
For some years now there has
been agitation in the state for annu-
tiles to those public school teachers
who have served twenty-five years in
the public schools. Among public
servants are there any more entitled
to recognition?
It is time that Iowa Joined in the
movement of showing. recognltlon
for faithful public service rendered.
A teacher in Iowa can be in poverty,
can be i'll. and but little does the
public care. A teacher can die in
service and few mourn. This is not
the American spirit. 1t is not the
Iowa spirit. The bill before the leg
islature should pass Waterloo

Pershiag Orders
Men to Respect
European Hosts

July l3.-Major Genera
Pershing, commander of tn
American forces in France, ha
ssued the following general order I,
his troops:
For the first time in history an
American army finds itself in Eu-
ropean territory. The good name
OF the United States of America
and the maintenance of cordial re-
lations require the perfect depor,-
ment of each member OF this com
mand.
1t is Of the gravest importance
that the soldiers OF the American
army shall at all times treat the
French people, and especially the
women, with the greatest courtesy
and consideration.
The valiant deeds OF the French
armies and the allies, by which they
together have successfully main
tanned the common cause for three
years, and the sacrifices of the civil
population of France in support of
their armies command our pro-
found respect. This can best be
expressed on the part of our force,
by uniform courtesies TO all the
French people and by the faithful
observance of their laws and Gus
toms.
The intensive cultivation Of the
soil in France under condition,
caused by the war makes it nee
essary that extreme care be taken
to do no damage to private prop
erty. The entire French manhood
capable Of bearing arms is in the
field fighting the enemy, and il
should, therefore, be point OF
honor TO each member of the Amer
ican army to avoid doing the least
damage to any property in France.
Such conduct is much more repre-
hensible here Honor them as those
OF our own country.

CABRERA PLEDGES
 NEUTRALITY STAND
Republican A. p. Leased Wire1

WASHINGTON, May 2.-Luis Ca brera, General Carranza's minister of finance, in letter to Secretary Lane, with whom he sat on the Mexican American commission, pledges not only Mexico's neutrality, but his gov ernment's intention to do nothing to embarrass the United Staes in the war with Germany.
 part of Cabrera's letter made pub lie today by Secretary Lane, follows:
 All Mexicans who know and appre- ciate the United States are now suIv- ing to keep Mexico absolutely neutral in the present world conflict, which unfortunately, has extended to Ameri- ca. Although l believe that the war be- tween the United States and Germany will actually take place in Europe and not in America, the United States can be sure that the present government of Mexico will do everything in it's power to make the United States feel abso- lutely confident that there will be no reason at all to fear from our side
 Mexico has gone through a civil war and there is nothing the people desire more than to remain in, peace and without being engaged in an interna- IlOnal war"

BUSINESS |S NOT

WASHINGTON, May 2.-General business conditions throughout the country. the federal reserve board an- nounced tonight in its monthly review, has not been affected materially by the entrance of the United States into the war.
 The reports by districts include:
 New York-There are evident deter mined efforts to increase the food SUD- ply and speeding up of business as result of government buying.
 Philadelphia-The entrance of the United States into the war has caused advances in prices. The labor situa- ton has become very acute
 Chicago-Many uncertainties hereto lore in evidence have been cleared up but as war was anticipated it caused but little disarrangement in business circles.
 St Louis-The opening of war found this district well prepared against any emergency.
 Kansas City-Practically all business continues to run ahead of the volume of last year. The financial interest of the district exhibits a marked degree of optimism

ALL STATES ARE
 REPRESENTED AT
 DEFENSE MEETING
(By Dwiqht B. Heard)

WASHINGTON, D. C., May 2.-All the states of the union were repre- sented at a conference with the council of national defense today. ten being represented by their governors. Sec retary Baker made remarkably clear presentation of plans for creating and training a national army composed of the present regular army and National Guard recruits by voluntary enlist ment to full war strength which will allow for six hundred thousand vol unteer enlistments and in addition to the creation by the selectiVe draft un- der bill now pending of additional forces in units of 500.000 men. He al so urged all citizens to make of the registration day for the draft a great festival occasion and suggested that registration day can be made by proc lamation fifteen days after the select i've draft bill is signed.
 Training camps to train the twenty five thousand officers needed will be opened May 18th. Applicants must be | from twenty years, nine months of age to forty-four years.
 Secretary Daniels announced that today by enlistments the navy has reached full war strength but that more men will be accepted for addi- tional units now provided for and stated that within the past thirty two days more men have enlisted in the navy than the entire force in the American navy when Dewey won the Battle of Manila Bay.
 Secretary Lane made an inspiring address urging the need of the whole l nation, realizing that we are at war in great earnest and that England and | France are fighting with us for prin ciples born in America and urged that we must not think for a moment that we can win this war by issuing bonds but that we must furnish fighting men and lots of them.
 The afternoon session was addressed | by the secretary of labor and the as sistant secretary of agriculture. Strong need of intelligent mobilization of az ricultural labor was shown. Tomor-
 row definite plans for increased anC efficient cooperation between the federal and state government will bt
 fully discussed including certain con
 structive suggestions which the com
 mittee has prepared.
