No German Services

There is room in the United States for ANY
language, for general use among it's citizens but
our native tongue-English.
Anyone who will take the time to investigate can
reach but one conclusion and that is that Germany
and the leaders of German thought have for years
had their plans laid to Germanize America and
unless we are willing to see them ultimately
plish their desires we must begin now to destroy
the German influence by abolishing the German
language from newspapers, public meetings and
schools.-Tacoma Church Record

Beauty Spots

There are many beauty spots around Tacoma
That there probably is not one citizen in hundred
who has seen more than about 80 per cent of them.
We have the confession of one resident of 16
years standing that he just this week "discov-
cred" panorama that is as fine as many whole
states could boast of.
That is the view afforded to the northeast from
the East Tacoma hill just above the Rogers school,
The tideflats, the bay, Browns point, and, nearer
at hand, the wonderful, green Puyaup valley, and
the ridge on one end of which the Indian school is
located, all stand out in this view.
He adds that scarcely less impressive, and quite
different, in that it gives fine showing of the city
an place of the valley, is the view from this last
mentioned ridge.

The RIGHT Idea

Good for Principal Hunt He did just right in
refusing to sign diploma for the Stadium high
school senior recently convicted of stealing autos
for joy ride uses. He also did just right in saying
he would sign it year from now if the boy showed
enough moral development in the meantime
Also good for the dad of a younger high school
boy, another member of the auto-borrowing gang,
who took his offspring promptly out of school and
onto job to earn the 800 fine the Judge inn
posed. The Times predicts that youngster will
have far more wholesome idea of life when his
pater permits him to re-enter school.

got from the book everything

Eliene was silent moment,

Lafferty has been everything in

And all the while she has

that Tim was made policeman
she came to me and asked for
some good books to read. She
did not come back for so long

she wanted to read them and
also that she had borrowed them
from my library. Six months
later she returned the four books
-Kiplin's poems, Dickens Tale

Abroad with the comment that
she had read them all thru at
least six times. Handing the Ro
mola, she said, AT first l did
not get the sense and beauty of
this book, Miss Margaret, but
