Summer Session Teacher Was Super.
fntendent of Arizona County.

fntendent Of Arizona County.
Miss c. Louise Boehringer will teach
courses in primary and grammer

years county superintendent in the

year her duties in this office include a

her travels. She has the distinction of
being the first woman elected to office
in Arizona and is probably the first

the United States. This was in 1913,
when on the recall of the superinten-
dent of Yuma County. she was elect
ed to the position which she has filled
until last year when she gave it up to
make the race for the state superin-
tendency.
In this race she finished second to
the man who had held the office for
five years. In her campaign she made
a trip of 5000 miles over the state in
a motor car, accompanied only by a
young woman.
Miss Boehringer has taught i'm the
Springfield and Cape Girardeau Nor
NAL Schools and gave the same cours-
es here three years ago which she is
giving this summer. She is the author
Of the works on nature study and ele-
language which are used in
The Missouri State course. She has an
interest in literature and newspaper
work and has written many of her in
.eresting experiences for various pub
ications.

KEEPING FAITH

In the exigencies of a national
peril there is apt to be under the
surface a grumbling against the turn
of affairs and a loss of faith.
At no other time is the necessity of
keeping faith greater. The problems
of the years are weighty and human
minds and human plans cannot grap-
pie with them without making an oc-
casional misstep.
All things may not be to the liking
of many individuals, but they should
not lose their faith or confidence. 1t
is upon the confidence of the nation
that those who are directing its af-
fairs most depend.
The minor grievances and personal
prejudices must be put aside for the
contemplation and solution of the
more vital problems. The little
things must not interfere.
Free thinking and free discussion
is not an outlet for the disgruntled
and the faithless. 1t is a means of
keeping faith by the cementing of
public opinion; without it vital in
formation cannot be disseminated
and people, knowing little of the
progress and of the plans which are
being made, become skeptical in their
virtual ignorance.
To keep faith one must know; to

YOUR son

The time was when your son came
pattering down the walk in his bare
feet, breathless to ask your consent
to 20 to the "ole swimmin' hole" OF
out to the "croppy pool"
But your son is a man now. He is
no longer the small boy with grimy
hands and a dirt splotched face, OBJ
jecting strenuously to the admins
tering of the hated soap and water.
And your son is an American citi-
zen. Within his breast beats heart
that is filled with loyalty and pa
triotism-burns with desire to
serve his country in whatever way
he may.
True it is that it is heart rending
to parents to see their sons go march
ing away to the front, optimistic and
full of confidence and conviction.
But this is only one of the sacrifices
in the time of national peril.
Other mothers have given their
sons that the cause of the nation
might be upheld and not perish for
the want of support. Parents since
time immemorial have been making
this personal sacrifice to a cause
which they deemed worthy and just.
Your son does not want to hang
back when his nation is ringing with
a call to arms. Your son does not
want to shirk his duty to his nation.
This expression of his manliness
cannot help but give thrill to those
to whom he is most dear. 1t is an
expression of the spirit which char
acterized the war of the revolution.
1t is a time of national sacrifice
and service-many mothers sons
must go to protect and preserve the
principles of democracy and liberty
for which this nation stands.

Investors in rubber tire stock have
made fortunes during the past few
years. Statistics Of the earnings OF
rubber tire companies which we have
in our office for your inspection, show
as much as 1000 percent Of stock diyi
dends in some Of the companies the
past year. 100 percent is not any un.
usual dividend; along with these. hand
some cash dividends are being paid.
None Of them have better tires, a bet
ter organization or better opportunity
than BeSaw Tire 4 Rubber Company.
The ever increasing demand alone
for rubber tires is sufficient 20 multiply
the earnings OF participants in the
rubber tire stock The rubber tire in
dustry ranks all industries, known 10
American commerce during the last ten
years as a dividend producer, and rep.
resents supremacy in industrial earn
ings.
The men who stand as sponsors and
serve. as trustees for the BeSaw Tire

cord with the fundamental principal
and the economic policy established for
this company. Their association with
