SCHOOL ATTENDANCE

There are no circumstances which
will justify any diminuition in the ed
ucational work of the country because
of war conditions. On the other hand
the educational forces must work with
greater zeal than ever before.
This is the theme of statements
made by Governor James M. Cox, and
Superintendent of Public Instruction,
Francis B. Pearson, in reviewing the
opening of the school year. 1t was
| impressed that strict compliance with
school laws would be insisted upon.
The governor said, "At this time
when the schools and colleges are mob
lilizing their forces, children Of school
age should be encouraged not only to
attend regularly, but to engage them
selves in the prescribed tasks to the
end that they may secure the greatest
possible benefits from their work.
"The hope is expressed that school
authorities will enforce strictly the
attendance laws, securing the cooper
Iation of parents to this end. Every op-
Iportunity for special work along the
lime of home economics should be util-
lied"
Mr.. Pearson said, "The fact that
we are at war must not bring about
any slowing down of education. Win
ming the war, as well as meeting the
problems after the war, will re
lquire more, rather than less training
"Patriotic parents will make ever!
sacrifice within reason to keep tn

Liberties Excel Strictly from
the Standpoint Of Safety
and Profit
But There Is the Patriotic Side
That We Can Overlook
in This Crisis

Liberty Bonds are the soundest 81
curity in the world.
Everyone who makes purchase OF
these bonds is making a conservative
investment.
Funds invested in these bonds are
certain to be returned at maturity
and the interest will be paid regularly
when due, without fail.
1t is important that every pros
pective purchaser Of Liberty Bonds
should know just what they are.
The present issue Of $3,0OO,O0OOoO
1925 Year 1 per. cent ConVertible
Bonds were authorized by an act OF
Congress- approved Sept. "a, 1917. The
bonds bear interest from Nov. 10,
1917, and are In denominations OF $50,
800, $500, $1,000, $4,000 and $4,000.
They can be had in either coupon or
registered form.
Ordinarily, coupon bonds are pre-
ferable. The transfer of registered
bonds involve so much red tape as to
affect the marketability of the bonds.
Subscribers for an amount not In
excess of $1,000, who make payment
in full at the time of filing their appli-
cations, will receive bonds bearing in
terest from Nov. Is, 1917, as soon as
possible after their subscriptions are
received. Such subscribers will re-
ceive no interest from date Of payment
| to Nov. IL.
One of the attractive features q
these bonds to the average investor is
the fact that they are exempt as tc
principal and interest from all taxa
ton by the United States, or any
state, except federal. inheritance taxe'
and income surtaxes.
In addition to this exemption the In
terest on an amount of bonds not II
excess OF $4,000 is exempt from tn
federal, inheritance and income SUI
taxes.

This, in fact, is really reorgan-

once in the past, but it took on so
many of the characteristics Of q
legislative caucus in the general
Faculty meetings that it had TO be
discontinued. Now, although the

more frequent meetings. So many
