IhS NATION IS THE PEOPLE,

In his great speech II Culun-

Covenant and HE treaty with Ger

IF | were TO state what seems
to me to be the central idea OF hi
treaty. il would be this: 1t is al
most Il discovery in international
conventions that nations do not
consist of their government. but
consist of their people,"
That is rudimentary idea, il
seems TO 90 without saying in
America. but. my fellow. citizens.
it was never the leading idea in any
other international congress that !
ever heard Of, that is to say, any
international congress made up of
the representatives Of government.
They were always thinking of ma
tioral policy, of national advani-
ages, of the rivalricS Of trade, of
the advantages of territorial con-
quest. There is nothing OF that in
this treaty.
You will notice that even the ter
ritoricS which are taken away from
Germany. like her colonies. are not
given TO anybody. There is not a
single act of annexation in this
treaty.
But territories inhabited by pco-
pie not vet able to govern them
selves. either because Of economic
or other circumstances or the stage
of their development. are put under
the care of powers who arc to ac-

COURTS,

IL comes to us now and then that
our courts Of today have but little
resemblance to the courts OF gen
GRAFTON or SO ago. As We rcmem-
Der sessions of the courts then.
they We're conducted with more
dignity, and with less scramble.
Some one started the idea that the
court business must be Spcedcd
through, and cases be submitted
and decided like grain passing
through a hopper. And SO lti
giants and witnesses come pilling
into court all in mess, and all pull
and haul to be first to finish and
leave. The hurry and scramble and
hustle is the thing, and not the de-
Hibernate and exact justice admins
tered with solcmniy and dignity
OF other days.
The new way may save 4 days
jury service now and then, but it
does not save the witnesses and liti-
gaEts the many extra days occa-
stoned by setting many cases for the
same day. Ii does not give time for
calm deliberation and decision.

IMPROVEMENTS.

The districts of Lcwisburg, Fort
Spring, White Sulphur, and Mead
ow Bluff have voted bonds for
roads. Anthonys Greek and Will
Harrisburg will probably vote on a
road bond issue yet this fall. White
Sulphur. Fort Spring, and Falling
Spring districts have voted bonds
for High Schools, and Frankford
district will vote on the establish
ment of High School and bonds
for the building YET this fall.
Slowly and surely we are learn
ing that money spent for roads and
schools is money we'll and wisely
invested. From such investments
people draw large and increasing
dividends. Good schools and good
roads make land to smile and
blossom.
We no longer believe so much in
the education as Il mere polish. We
arc wanting education that makes
for success in the business of life.
Education that teaches us how to
care for ourselves and our business
and our homes and our children.
BY all means give us that polish
that will make us true and truth
full, sincere and honest. kind and
charitablc-thc polish that makes
for us neiShbOrS and friends. And
by all means give us enough insight
into the vast ocean Of knowledge
beyond our reach SO that we may
be Rumble and not Sclf-SaiiSlicd
and so that We will be inspired to
coin our leisure into knowledge.
by and bye, when we shall have
good roads all over the county.
there will be a county maintained
institution of learning higher than
The High School. TO il will come
the graduates of The High School for
their higher education and tcchni-
Cal training. And by and bye. OPP
pOrtunity Will be given men and

things we 50 much need and want

must lcarn The best there is. the
best methods, the best things.
The increase in The number of
High Schools will do a great thing
to the teaching profession. Prac-
tically all who teach in our schools
now are teaching as a makeshift.
They teach one or two or three
terms, and then they get into some
thing else. That is scarcely fair to
the children, because teaching is a
serious profession, and demands
long preparation, and devotion
scarcely demanded by any other
profession. With High Schools and
