The money system of the new coun-
try Is quite complicated. There ex-
ISIS only paper money, but it is of so
many kinds that it is difficult to dis
tinguish real values. The old Roman
OH money Is still a favorite with the
people. Then there is the Kerensky
money which is disliked because there
are many counterfeits of it in circu-
iatlon. In three cities, Odessa, Jelisa-
viegrad and Rostov, the Bolshevlki

these cities. The small change has

called Dumaruble and Ostruble, and
the so-called karbovanietz, which the
government of the Ukraine issued in
50-ruble denominations.

Schools Open Monday.

The local schools will open Monday,
Sept. 9Th. While the interior renova-
tion and alteration will not be complete
by that date, conditions will be such as
not to interfere with regular school
procedure. Parents are urged to ar
range that their children be in attend
ance the first day and that they regu-
larly attend during the opening weeks.
A pupil is placed at decided disad-
vantage if kept from attendance at
the classes of the first week or two.
Conditions should be very exacting to
satisfy the necessity of postponing reg
ular attendance at classes.
1t is suggested that pupils entering
any of the upper four years of the
high school purchase no books before
the opening of school except the fol
lowing: Seniors, Hoadley's Physics;
Muzzey, American History. Juniors,
Ford & zimmerman, Geometry. Soph-
ignores, Briggs & Mckinney, English.
Freshmen, Briggs & Mckinney,
English. (This book is used for two
years.

Prospective Future for the Albion
Academy.

Prospective Future for the Albion
Academy.
Mr.. j. A. Jensen, who is the repre-
sentative of the board of trustees of
the Norwegian Lutheran Church of
America to handle Albion academy
property and to dispose of it by sale,
reports that he has been approached by
the field secretary of the Lutheran
Deaf and Dumb school at Fairbault,
Mimi, with view of securing the AL
bion academy property as the perma-
nent home of this institution. 1t seems
that several Lutheran denominations
are endeavoring to come together in
their efforts to educate the deaf and
dumb within their church in school of
their own. While the matter is not
definitely settled, representatives of
the churches are working out plan to
realize their purpose.
The field secretary, Mr.. Larson of
Fairbault, is very anxious to have the
school located at Albion. If he sue
ceeds in doing so, the academy prop
erty will either be sold, given or leased
to the parties interested.
People in this vicinity who are famil-
lar with the history and the traditions
of the Albion academy sincerely hope
that the property may continue to be
used for institutional purposes. If a
deaf and dumb school is established
there, the name would not need be
changed, as the nature of the work of
the school as far as the courses of
study are concerned would remain the
same as before. Mr.. Jensen and 9th
ers connected with the Lutheran
churches here would be in favor of
having the property turned over to the
parties who are interested in the pro-
posed move on the most reasonable
terms. One thing is certain-no place
could be selected as a school home for
these unfortunate young people more
quiet, homelike and beautiful than the
Albion academy, and it is to be hoped
that those who are in charge of
the matter may come together on a
proposition that would make it posi-
BILE to use the academy for educational
purposes.

Arizona republican., 1919-05-10
While We Honor Those Who Have Come We Grieve For Those who Have Fallen

and those who are coming now do not pose as the heroes they are; they are not asking to be treated as special class.
 They only want a chance an dit is our duty to give them that chance, so that they may not suf- fer bitterness of soul and so that we may not be- come an object of reproach.
 So we honor the boys because they went to save the world and we welcome them back be- cause we need them now. They bring back the elements we so much require in the readjustment of ourselves to the new conditions; we need the manhood and the self reliance which their months of service have brought to them.
 Our joy at their return is tempered by grief that all of them have not come. There are those who are sleeping beneath the fields of France where was accepted the sacrifice they offered.
 They died nobly, and in after years, the sor- row of their friends will be turned to pride that they gave their lives in the greatest cause that ever brought nation intc armed conflict.
Arizona republican., 1919-05-10

We salute those who were about to die.
 We will consecrate the memory of those who have died
 We are offering an apology for living while our boys were dying or were offering themselves upon the altar for the supreme sacrifice.
 A famous clergyman uttered the sentiment of the nation when he exclaimed: ''Where is there something or somebody 1 can die for?"
 We are welcoming home the boys of Arizona whom we sent away, beginning two years ago, with mingled pride and sorrow
 What we are about to do has been done, is being done or will be done all over the country
 We loosely speak of it as honoring our re- turning soldiers
 We are honorng ourselves; if we should neg lect to perform this rite we would be dishonoring ourselves.
 If the whole country should neglect it, it would be sad proof that our boys had fought in
Arizona republican., 1919-05-10

vain; that they had died or had offered them selves for death for a country that was not worth 1t.
 But this is not all we are to do for the boys who have come back; the music the flag-waving, the speeches, the hand-clapping will be meaning less and empty if we let it go at that
 The earnest of a thing is usually something that precedes it. Our earnest must be something that comes after; it must be earnestness.
 Our concern for the returned soldier must not be transitory and empty merely set to music.
 The men who come back are stronger and better than when they went away Their experi- ence has fitted them for more efficient work
 They come back with a spiritual endowment which will be a blessing to our national life
 We need such men in our greater business; to help US grapple with our more complicated prob lens.
 Those who, have been coming back for months
