cHIRoPRAcTIc DOCTORS
REMOVE NERVE PRESSURE

Nerve energy is the dominating
force within the human body. What
ever interferes with nerve energy thus
disturbs the health of the body. The
science of Chiropractic aims to re-
move the cause of disease and does
this through correcting any abnormal
condition in the body, particularly
through removing the pressure upon
impinged nerves at their exit from
the vertebral column. which the
Chiropractic recognizes as the chief
cause OF disease.
This scientific method of treatment
is used by Boynton & Boynton. doc
tors of chiropractic. whose Office is in

EAGER TO SEE ELEPHANT
United States Aroused the Ut
most Curiosity.

Nowadays, when summer In the
United States would hardly seem itself
without the coming of circus, it is
difficult to realize the excitement
aroused by the first exhibition Of an
elephant. K new-forgottAn Snowman,
Hackaliah Bailey, is said to have inn
ported the first elephant nearly hun
dred years ago, and the animal was
a whole show in himself. The circus
tent had not yet come into being, and
the elephant was shown in barns in
the Eastern states that then held the
bulk of the population. To prevent the
public from seeing the show without
charge, the elephant travelled from
place to place in the night; but even
so, the public refused to be wholly cir
cumvented, and small companies gath
cred with bonfires ready to light when
the strange creature came numbering
past on his way to the next town.
Sometimes, however, the management
defeated this intention by sending
along the road horse built up to look
like an elephant in the dark, and whcn
the bonfire had been lighted and had
burned out, the real elephant followed.

The WaN to the Pole.

Service with the American air
forces in France adds wei2k to the
opinion of Donald 3. Macmillan, Are
tic explorer and leader Of the Crocker
land expedition, that the airplane is
not adapted for a dash to the pole,
and that the cost of such a trip by
dirigible would be proEibitive. In his
own future explorations, Mr.. NacAlil-
Ian says, he expects tG depend on the
"ever-faithful dogs for conveyance.
The airplane is, in his judgment, i'm
practicable for several reaSCns, one of
which is, he says, sufficient to dis
count the idea of successful Arctic
exploration by hardy airmen. The
frozen north offers no smooth fields
of ice on which the explorer could
make a landing. dirlgible might
start from a properly equipped hangar
in Labrador and hope to return, but
the total cost of the expedition would
probably be about SI,OO0,OU0.

year; make them interesting and
worth while.
The ideals of every teacher
should be high and noble and these
ideals should be sought and attain,
ed. The school never rises above
the ideals and ambitions of the
teacher. Tine school is never better
than what the teacher makes it.
A teacher with ambition and a Wis
ION for greater service for serving
humanity, and his whole soul and
mind in his work, will succeed in
any school and under any condi-
tions.
Each teacher in the county
should carry on certain amount
of home study while teaching
The long evenings during the fall
and winter afford wonderful oppor-
tunilies for home study. If you get
your pupils to study and read you
must first give the example. You
will stagnate, unless you study.
The reason so many teacheas fail
to pass. an examination Is due
largely to lack of home study.
The school business is a progressive
business and to keep up with 1t
you must hustle.
No teacher should be without a
few of the leading school journals,
and leading newspapers, and mag
azines. There seem to be woetul
lack of knowledge of current news.
We are making history every day,
and TO know this history we must
read the daily papers and leading
magazines. Do rot let these things
slip by. You will reret i, if you do.

ANOTHER OF WARS RESULTS
Direct Connection Traced Between
Great Conflict and the Annoying
Scarcity of Laundresses.

This is from Alexandria, our neigh
boring city down the Potomac.

a time getting help" especially some
one to do the family wash! The ne
cessity for clean clothes is one which
devolves upon civilized beings. WAYS
may come and wars may go, but the
washtub and washboard go on forever.
But 1t has been hard to get laun-
dress in Alexandria. Wartime cODdf-
tions have enabled many who earned
their living at the tub to turn to less
arduous pursuits, with the result that
there is scarcity Of wash ladies'"
The condition is one paralleled in
many other cities.
"Aunt Lucy" said one Alexandrian
woman, addressing colored woman
whom she had known for many years,
"don't you know some one who can
do my washing?"
mo, ma'am don't know no one,"
she said.
The woman made a last attempt.
won't you do it for me, Aunt
Lucy?" she asked, with winning
smile.
"'Deed, chile" said Aunt Lucy, II
don't have to do no washing no more"
"Why?" asked the woman.
"Well, honey, hit is jes like this"
explained Aunt Lucy with a nice dis
tinction: de Civil war made us free.
