MARRIED TEACHERS.

The L. s. Commissioner OF Edu-
cation has been for some time urg-
ing the repeal of legislation against
the employment of married teachers.
There is, throughout the country
a very serious shortage OF teachers,
and women who have been trained
in the teaching profession and who
have left it for their homes are
needed back in the ranks.
Husbands of women who have
been trained to earn their living
are being taken rapidly in the draft.
Many of these women were ex-
cellent teachers. The country needs
their services in the work TO which
they have been trained.
There never was any reason eX-
cept popular prejudice and half
baked thinking against the employ
ment OF married women in the
schools.
Popular prejudice and half-baked
thinking must disappear before the
need of the nation. The proper
and effective education of the ma
tons children is the most import
ant of the essential industries" OF
the world.

VOTES AND PRECIOUS

The Prussian government is Crap
pling again with the franchise prob
lem. The Prussian parliment has
been trying to frame voting sys-
TEN that would suit both the Junk
ers and the working classes OF
course without satisfying either.
The privileged classes want to keep
their monopoly of government; the
workers want equal manhood sui
frage with fair representation in
stead OF the present system, which
disfranchises most OF the industrial
population.
Chancellor Won Hertling, reac-
tionary though he is, has been de-
manding radical reform. He gives
a most interesting explanation. lie
is not so hypocritical as to profess
any Jealous concern for the pro-
gress OF democracy in Prussia.
my honest conviction" he tells
the PrusSian house OF lords, lis that
with this serious question the pro-
lection and the preservation OF the
crown and the dynasty are at stake.
| fully appreciate the scruples re-
garding the introduction OF general
equal suffrage; but at the present
time these scruples must give way to
greater tasks, namely, the protec-
tion of the most precious treasures
of our political life-the dynasty
and the crown"
There is truly diverting and in
structive spectacles - democratic
suffrage being adopted to save an
autocratic crown. Hertling, the
Kaiser and their crowd probably
think they can get away with 1t,
too. But is it conceivable that even
Prussians, if they once win tull
and free voice in their own public
affairs, will use it to maintain
hose precious treasures the Ho-
henzolern family and the authority

BRITISH MARINES
TAKE OVER SECTION
WESTERN FRONT

London, Aug. lS.-(Correspond-
ence OF The Associated Press
British Marines have taken over a
section Of the front line trenches in
France, the British Admiralty las
officially announced.
With British and American
Marines now in the line it is interest
ing to recall that this is not the first
time that the two forces have fought
side by side.
One of the base reliefS of the
splendid memorial to the Royal
Marine Light Infantry in St, James S
Park, tells the story. 1t shows an
American officer leading party OF
British Marines in a gallant attack,
The text explains that the charge
took place on the night OF July rs,
1000. during the defense of Peking.
Official records tell more. They
relate that the Chinese had dug a
sap leading to within twenty-five
yards of a barricade held by the
Allies and at the end of the sap hac
built tower from which they could
fire at the defenders. 1t was neces-
sarv to capture the tower and the
sap and the forces available were
twenty-five British Marines under
Sergeant Murphy, fifteen American
Marines commanded by Captain
(now Colonel Myers, and fifteen
Russian Marines under Captain
NroubleffSky
Captain Myers took command OF
the whole force and decided that the
Anglo party should at
tack the tower. A flank attack was
10 be made on the Sarricade by the
Russians.
At given signal the party
swarmed over the American barri-
cade. The English and Americans,
with Captain Myers at their head,
entered the tower. to find it unoc-
cupied. They followed along the
sap where Captain Myers was
severely wounded in the knee and
was disabled. Sergeant Murphy at
once assumed command. After a
hand to hand fight, in which the
small body of Russian Marines
played a gallant part, the enemy re-
tired leaving twenty-five OF their
dead
With very natural pride the
SCULPTOR for the memorial proposed
to depict British officer leading
the attack but the Royal Marine
Light Infantry would not hear OF
this and for a twofore reason. they
insisted that the memorial should
be historically accurate and at the
same time they wished to show their
admiration for Captain Myers.

CHRISTMAS COMPROMISE

The War Industries Board, IN
putting Christmas on a war basis,
has made what will seem to most
people an extremely wise COM
promise.
The board found upon investiga-
ton that most of the goods intended
for the Christmas trads had already
been manufactured, and that especi-
ally in the case of toys. lumber and
other materials had been used which
were left over from the manufacture
OF other products.
The workshops of Santa Claus,
therefore, have been left intact by
the War Industries Board. But
ban is placed on the buying for
adults of other than useful articles.
And no merchant will be permitted
to increase his selling hours or to
hire extra help.
This means that the shopping
early plea of previous years has
now the force of an edict. As there
will be no extra help, no extra
hours, during the last few weeks
eefore Christmas, so there must be
no terrible extra burden upon the
employees,
The exhaustion OF store people
for weeks before and after the great
holiday, as we'll as the senseless
extravaganza of Christmas giving,
has become national scandal. At
time when every one is asked to
think of his purchase in terms OF
man and woman power, when waste
avoidance and thrift are the order of
the day, these abuses can no longer
be endured.
Spiritual things, also, are taking
on more nearly their proper value
in the lives OF men and women. 1t
is not the exchange of the material
gifte which should count, but the
spirit of good will to all.
Let the children have their toys
and happiness, therefore, on this
their day. And for those whom
you wish to remember substantially,
buy things OF use and value and
lasting quality. Wast9 nc money
or man-power on things of show.
This will not only follow the plan
of the War Industries Board, but
will help to bring Christmas back
to the place where it belongs in
the hearts Of the people.

EVERYBODY SING.

The nations leaders have sent
forth a call to song. The country
is responding joyously. We find
community sings on every hand.
In theatres, motion picture houses,
in department stores, at public
gatherings of every sort, the people
are singing. The more they do it
the better they like it, and the OF
ficial program OF music to keep up
the spirit OF the people is being
carried out enthusiastically because
the people themselves have felt the
thrill OF it.
Philadelphia has gone in for the
"Libery Sing" which is simply the
community sing applied to every
possible occasion. Workers in the
aircraft factory in the Philadelphia
navy yard have their own chorus.
Employees in mills and factories get
together at the noon hour and sing.
No club meeting is compltet-lunch-
con clubs included-without its
song. Crops, big and little, sing in
the parks and public squares.
The Daily Ardmoreite. [volume] (Ardmore, Okla.) 1893-current, 1918-09-14

Theatrical performances are fer
quently interrupted by the appear
ance on the stage OF a song leader
who conducts Liberty Sing.
The songs are being sung so
heartily in Philadelphia and in every
other community in the country are
the popular songs that the soldier
in the cantonment, the sailor on
shipboard and the folks at home
would normally choose for them
selves. Much OF it is very far from
classical, but all of it is worth while,
for ii coices natural human emo
tions.
No one can doubt the benefits
to be derived from all this musical
expression. The inspiring effect
ca nbc read by any observer on
can be read by any observer on
creature that will inevitably follow
the awakening in our national lie
of this spirit of song, will form a
valuable gift to coming generations.

SPAIN.

Spain seems drifting into the war.
Resolute perseverance in her policy
OF seizing German ships in retalia-
ton for the sinking OF her own YES
sells can hardly have any other re-
suit. The transition from painstak-
ing neutrality to open belligerency
may take many months but 1t has
begun. The rest may be left to
time, and the pressing OF the Allied
offensive, whose success is the chief
factor in screwing Spanish courage
up to the sticking point.
1t would be great triumph for
the Allies if the chief remaining
European neutral, and the only one
capable OF considerable military
exertion. should enter the lists
against Gemrany. If Spain goes in,
she goes with her eye wide open.
Her decision would be another
powerful arraignment OF Prussian
crime and perfidy and convincing
verdict as to the logical outcome OF
the war.
1t would be good for Spain, too.
1t would mean the definite awaken
ing of that backward country and
its alignment with the democratic,
constructive forces of the world.
Heretofore the king and the COM
mon people Of Spain have sympa-
thized with the Allies, while the
conservative classes-the nobility
and the business and professional
interests-have mostly sided with
Germany. Defiance of Germany
means breaking loose from the
bonds of political and social reaction
that have so long stifled the develop
ment OF the Spanish nation.
The bonds must be already
loosening, to permit so fateful a
step as the government has already
taken. Active belligerency would
complete the work, admitting Spain
to full partnership with the free
nations that are re-making the world.

SHIR PEJEL
The Spirit Triumphant.

My body bound with steely chain
In prison you may cast.
But walls and fetters both are vain
To hold my spirit fast.
However high the massy wall
Or strong the bars may be.
The granite and the iron fall
Before the soul OF me.
Let wheatless> and meatless be kick
less and whineless,
Lest all days to come be soulless
and spineless.
"Let the swine die says the Ger
man. Double my Red Cross sub
scription," says the American.
The woman who shot Lenine pro-
vides the first noteworthy example
of proficiency in Russian marks
manship.
A ton in the bin is worth nine in
the mine.
Only a Stacker could stand on the
sidewalk and criticize as the army
of workers marches by.
Which do YOU value most, your
money or the lives OF American sol
diers? Subscribe to the Red Cross
once again.
"The allies are all in the same
boat, a long way from shore and on
limited rations'-and Uncle Sam is
running the relief ship.
Come to think of it, how did Tom
Lawson happen to let the aircraft
row get by him without making
demonstration
Get the load off your mind and
into the cellar.
But if somebody don't get Trotz-
XIV. too, that scoundrel will regard
himself as the survival OF the tit
test.
Hints OF Prussian preparation Tor
the war after this have brought forth
emphatic declarations from all por-
tons of the map that there Is not
going to be any next war.
One ounce less OF meat each day
for everyone means saving of a.
400, 900 meat animals each year. Save
YOUR ounce. The sacrifice is small
but the result for your country Isl
large.
The joy-rider now has chance to
do something useful. He may stay
at home Sundays for patriotic rea-
sons.
1t doesn't matter who started this
war. Uncle Sam will finish ii.
We must meet sacrifice at the
front with sacrifice at home.
