So Disasreeable to Yourself and All

Catarrh is generally conceded to
be a constitutional disease. There
fore 1t requires constitutional
remedy like Hoods Sarsa parilla
which reaches every part of the
system by thoroughly purifying
and enriching the blood. This medi-
cine removes the cause of the
trouble, which If not checked may
lead to more serious disease.

LABOR'S VERDICT ON
LIQUOR.

The Literary Digest has just
finished conducting an inquiry
among leaders of labor to as
certain their views on the results
of prohibition, as affecting the
workingmne. Letters were sent
to 526 men holding places of
leadership in the unions through
out the country, asking the ques-
ton: Has prohibition been a
benefit to the workingmen and
their families?" and a decided
majority give an affirmative an
swer. In 30 per cent of the re-
plies, it is stated, the question
was answered after taking a poll
of the members present at union
meetings. The Digest publishes
the following summary Of the an
swers;
Replies came from every state
in the Union. In sparsely settled
sections, perhaps reply does

THE ELECTION NEXT TUES
DAY-VOTE.

On no question confronting the
country at the present time is
there greater unanimity of opin-
ion than the matter Of teachers
salaries. That the compensa-
tion paid to members Of the
teaching profession is utterly in
adequate, as a rule, to maintain
the proper standard of living
among them and to induce them
to continue in the work, is gen
orally conceded. 1t is just as
generally recognized that our
public school system must be Sc
riously hampered and weakened
unless something is done 80
change this situation. With
teachers everywhere quitting
their Jobs for more lucrative en-
ployment, not Of their own choice
but because they are forced to it
by economic necessity, the only
way to save the schools is to
provide more money for their
maintenance.
This is the main question IN
volved in the special election
that is to be held in Chickasha
Tuesday, March 16 The board |
of education has submitted its
budget for the schools, asking
the voters to authorize an addi-
tional levy. In the budget there /
are several items for the neces-
sary Improvement of buildings |
and the purchase Of additional
equipment, but the item calling |
for more funds to pay teachers |
stands out as Of paramount i'm
portance.
Every year we have had such a
special election and the people
have never failed to vote the
needed levy. This year little
larger amount is requested but
there can be no question as to
the way the voters think about
it. Usually very small vote IS
east in these elections, the aver
age citizen being disposed to give
his assent by silence. Every vo-
ter owes it to himself, his com
munity and the interests OF the
children to put himself on rec
ord next Tuesday. Let us make
it an affirmative vote that will
leave no doubt in the minds OF
the teachers, the members OF the
board or anybody else as to how
Chiekasha stands on the question
of the welfare of the pub
lie schools An affirmative vote
will show that you are interest
ed in the schools and want to see
them maintained at the highest
Cast your vote next
Tuesday and thereby say that
You want Chickasha to have pub
lie schools second to none in the

A POETS PRAYER

Ere On my bed my limbs ] lay,
II hath not been my use to prey
With moving lips or Blended knees
But silently by slow degrees,
My spirit to love compose,
In humble trust mine eyelids close
With reverential resignation,
No wish conceived, no tho't exprest,
Only sense of supplication;
a sense all DER my soul imprest
That / am weak, not yet unblest,
Since in me, round me everywhere,
Eternal strength and wisdom are.
