MONEY NO LONGER
 IS<'ROOT OF EVIL
Physical Culture)

Money is no more the root of evil" than are the good things that it rep
 resents, whether these take the form of personal service, labor, or the ma
 terial products of labor. Money means work, it means production, it means the things that have been made by mems brains and hands. It not only stands for the things we eat, the clothes we wear and the houses we live in, but it stands for works of art and for the services of artists. It means the services of the entertaining writer in the form of books. It means the pleasure giving efforts of the mu- sician in the opera or concert. It means musical instruments for the home, educational opportunities in the schools, publicity in the press, inspira- tion in the church, fun and emotional | relaxation in the theater, police pro- lection on our streets and justice in our courts. Money means cleanliness, good appearance, self-respect. Money is the source of good, just as it may be the source of evil, but in either case

GRAIN

CHICAGO, April 23.-Announcement that the coarse grain division of the food administration would recommend cancelling the embargo on eastbound shipments of grain led to a sharp advance today in the value of corn. Prices closed strong 1s@ Ato 25s net higher, with May $1.274 and July S1.475s to s1.49A. Oats gained 4 O 7s to Is, and provisions 35 to 47@50.
 Prospects of the embargo removal more than offset everything bearish regarding corn. Prices scored a swift advance after a decline which fol- lowed the opening. Smallness of rural notices of consignments attracted at tention, and so, too, did briskness ot industrial demand.
 Activity on the part of New York and Boston export interests had much to do with the upward swing of oats
 Liberal exports and the fact that lard shipments were materially il excess of last year hoisted provisions Close.

COMMERCIAL DEPARTMENT
FOR HIGH SCHOOL

The local Board of Education is to
be congratulated upon it's motion to
install a commercial department in
the local high school, beginning with
September 1918. The board has long
felt the urgent need of installing
such course.
In his annual report for the school
year of 1916-1917, Supt. c. E. Blume
recommended that a special COM
mittee be appointed to give the mat
ter. of establishing such a course,
careful consideration and at a special
meeting of the board December 2Sth,
it was voted to install such a depart
ment. Probably no action of the
board will be received with more ac-
clamation by the students of the high
school who have long felt the lack
! of such a department.
With the installation of this course
in the high school, it will no longer be
necessary for the local pupils to go
elsewhere for their business training
for it is the intention of the local
authorities to present a very strong
course. The board authorized Supt.
Blume to secure the necessary equip
ment and to obtain the services of a
very competent instructor for the
work.
A complete course will be prepared
The course will cover four years, the
equivalent of regular high school
course, lead to graduation and di-
ploma from the commercial depart
ment. None but eighth grade grad
yates will be admitted to the course.
It is thought that number of recent
graduates will seek the chance of Sc
curing a. business education. supt
Blume thought such graduates would
be able to secure the diploma from
this department in two years.
