MOTORCYCLES WILL BOOM

It is expected that with the return
of our overseas force the use Of mo-
torcycles will be greatly stimulated
During the war the government pur-
chased $4,000 machines. From five to
seven men were developed as drivers
for each machine, which means that
in our army there are something like
100000 trained riders, experienced In
the care and up-keep of motorcycles,
many of whom will purchase new ma
chimes for their personal use.

advice to car owners, whie
,esides being good poetry is good a
ice:
The ardent motor drivers
ExtOl their cars a lot.
They prove their proud affection
With all the breath they've got.
But he is rare among them,
Within whose motor ken,
The love of car Is strong enough
To shift gears now and then.
They speak at length of tires,
And on how fast they went,
On cost per mile of travel
And upkeep costs-unspent.
But never do they mention,
II should happen near,
That they have had occasion
Some time, to shift gear.
In summer, heavy laden.
In winters grip of chill,
You never force her, do you,
In high to make hill?
You never take her, bucking,
Struggling with might, in vain,
Laboring to hilltop,
In high and under strain?
The ardent motor drivers
Are wisest when they know,
To help willing motor,
Forestally the Upkeep Woe.
They save upon repair bills,
And worry save indeed.
Who don't deny their engines
The restful second speed.

To this end he has telegraphed al

Mr.. Palmer declares 1t apparent that
| sugar should reach the consumer at
approximately IL cents a pound, and
II II does not, the government proposes
to find out why and to punish violat-
ors Of the license provisions.
Resale of sugar within the trade, he
says, is undoubtedly responsible for
the radical increase in the price in
many localities. Because Of this some
reasonable prices, and they will not
be punished for disposing of 1t at a
fair profit.
All Dealers" says the attorney gen.

food administration and are subject to
the rules Of the food control act of
1917. Licenses may be Cancelled for vi

The following statement Of facts is
for your information, showing how a
fair price OF approximately IL cents
per pound for sugar to the consumer
was reached:

that may be added by the jobbers or

The margin allowed retailers was

These margins are not now specifi-

is all that it can be as force for
Americanism. Some of our COM
munities have 4 measurable excuse
in the overbalancing mass of non
English-speaking children which
their public schools must educate
1t is hard, in the necessarily rigid
curriculum of public school, to
teach such aliens strange tongue
side by side, with native-born chill
dren. One or the other must suffer
educationally. But this is surely n
solvable problem, and if every one
realized the urgent need of uniting
all our children in the education Of
their formative years a way could
doubtless be found.
The plea raised by Professor
Sharp cuts both ways. The private
school Of the East is nothing to
boast Of 1t is often inferior in every
respect, in learning and in teachers,
to the public school Of the same COM
munity. In union there would not
only be more Americnnism and more
democracy for all, but better educa
ton for all.
Universal military training, as an
act of dedication to ones country, IS
our hope in the future. Here and
now what Eastern communities will
be the first to use the means Of
Americanization already in their
hands and elevate their public
schools to their true and fitting post?

bingham and Milton believe IN
public schools; their folk know that
the American public school system is
the best in the world and good
enough--"eXcept for my children"
Professor Sharp proceeds, applying
his text to his own four sons and
the public schools Of his town:
Here gather most of Hingham's
future citizens, quite un-American-
ized-young Cangiano, Biorklund
Weijane, Wainakainen. and with them
four young Sharps. Amercanized By
birth, but not yet democratized. If
these four Sharps can do some Ameri
canizing-and the public school is the
best place to do II in-they can get in
turn some wholesome democrntiz:ng
to balance the account. Do not the
public schools need my four boys?
Shall the newcomers from overseas
find only Shoelenburgs, Chiofolos,
kozlofiskis and Salomas in high
school, with never Sharp or o Smith
among them" ?"
or course, this situation is largely
localized in the East. In the Mid
die West, especially, the public school
