EXTEND INCOME TAX TIME

The Argus-Leader has the following
to say about the extension of time for
filing income tax returns:
ANY income taxpayer who failed
for any reason, to file a report with
the collector under the federal tax law
not later than March Is may still file
such report without penalty any time
before May /, according to ar an
nouncement just made by j. f. Zoller

helping solve the problem of the bet
torment of the present school condi-
tions for the rural boys and girls.
The school building of today must
be so constructed that il shall become
the real nte of social and commu-
nifty activity. The correlation of the
home and farm interests, with the
proper kind of schools, will tend 10

on the part Of the ~present-day teach

of the community which she serves
in the most practical and forceful
manner as teacher and community
leader.
Too, she cannot hope to fill the re
Quirements of a twentieth century
teacher by staying on the job only Ave
days in the week; but in order to de-
rive the greatest good for the boys
and girls, under her charge, she must
so arrange her plans so as to stay
on the job eve days per week. No
other vocation will prosper o de-

the teaching profession.
In teaching Education for Democ-
racy" vocational training is of vital
importance. Boys and girls who have
the opportunity of studying agricul-
ture, home economics, commercial
work and manual training, will enjoy
and derive greater benefits from mod
ern school life by putting theory into
practice. The more we thus connect
our homes with u schools, the bet
ter will be the service to the com
munity. Loyalty To the teacher and
closer cooperation between teachers,

ficers are also indispensable factors
in promoting greater efficiency in

during his term of Office. He stated
clearly that the success, which he had
achieved in the various lines of school
work, was due to the hearty cooper
ton he had received at all times from
the teachers, pupils, patrons and tn
school officers of Bookings county.
Some of the greatest benefits de
rived from the scholarly and inspir-
ing addresses delivered at this meet
ing were as follows:
The vital importance of a square
deal for the education of the rural
boys and girls of Bookings county.
Our county should provide, for it,
country boys and girls the same ad-
vantages in education that it offers
freely to it's boys and girls Of the

Think of the ships that stay inside,
Surging about to please the tide;
Never daring to put to sea;
Shackled like slaves with timidity,
Fearing THE Dragon that steams
outside
Pity those ships that skulk inside.
Think Of the men hat man that fleet
knowing "up anchor means defeat;
Scraping barnacles off the bulls,
Sharing their bit with the Baltic
gulls;
Awaiting the death that's just out
side
Pity the men that stay inside.
Think of the admiral high in command
Knowing that ruin awaits his land
Unless his feet puts out to sea,
To fight against democracy;
He knows THE Dragon" steams out
side,
So pities himself, and stays inside
