was necessary for scores Of delegates to
find caucus rooms on upper floors or on
the curbing.

of the state legislature from Seward coun-
ty, led the denim parade which didn't
develop to extensive proportions. Farmer

during his entire stay in the meeting town.

the fact that GONE one has found that

away someone wanted to bet that four
years from now February would again
have five Sundays.
After the bet was placed, the math-
ematiclans got together and began
work on the great question. 1t didn't
take much effort to find that Febru-
airy four years hence has but four
Sundays, but when they went deeper
in the subject they held their breath
with astonishment. This Is what they
found:
The next month OF Februry that
has five Sundays is in 1948 Just TWEEN

HARVEST TIME FOR SAVINGS

The man who has practtced reason
able economy during the last five years
will soon reap the reward Of his fore
sight. Wages during and since the war
have been high and a great many men
,haye been In a position to build up bank
accounts II they so desired. Now the
prices Of commodities arc beginning 10
go down and every ono OF these dollars
IN tho bank will soon buy double what
Az would have bought when placed there.
Throughout the period OF war pros
nerity. thrift was constantly preached
be bankers and others. It was pointed
out that tho big wages made In NUM-
ton factories and elsewhere would not
tast forever, and that dollars which
were then worth only fifty cents COM
nared 70 their purchasing power in 1914,
would be worth much more later tn. II
was possible for most men TO bank
something during these years. Many
did and now have tho pleasant antlcl-
nation Of making about 100 per cent
profit on their money. The man VINO
did not save. but squahdered his Dig
wages for silk shirts and other eHtraFa-
giant Injuries, has no one TO blame but
himself.
This increase In the purchasing power
OF money will be OF special value to
young mon and women who contemplate
tho making Of homes the coming spring
and summer. Wages in most lines are
st,ll high and even II he starts now. tho
average young man will be IN position

THE DEFEAT OF WRANGEL

There Is nothing surprising In the
final defeat Of General Wrangel, the
antI-Bol shevist Russian leader. His
fate was sealed when the Bolshevists
and Poland made a treaty of peace and
the Bolshevist forces were released to
attack wrangel. Although he had GER
tain measure OF allied support. this was
entirely inadequate 10 accomplish any
thing in a military way and he was sim
ply overwhelmed.
In his campaign against the Soviet
armies, Wrangcl displayed great mill
tary ability. lie inherited the democrat
lied remnants Of Denlkines forces and
welded them into Z machine that, for
its size. was formidable. His defeat
marks the third big failure OF tho Rus
SLAMS TO overcome the Lenine govern
ment by a counter revolution.
This victory, however. does not give
increased prestige 10 the Boishcvists
In fact. it may hasten the end by con-
centrating attention upon the failures
OF the Reds. All over Russia, the com.
mon people have lost confidence in Lc-
nine and Trotzky. who are constantly
on the brink Of smouldering volcano.
The fail OF Wrangel is merely n pre-
liminary TO a gretaer change in the af-
fairs OF Russia.

THE SCHOOLS WITHOUT
TEACHERS

At the beginning OF the present school
S-sycar, county superlntendepts in West
Virginia reported shortage or LOU
school teachers. This means that 1,09o
schools were vacant. Fifty per cent
,.pr these schools were not in session
full term last year, and on the average
OF 20 pupils to school. 10000 school
children in West Virginia who did not
10 to school 100 days, and 5000 addi-
tlonal who did not get any schooling
o.. at all. According TO the West virginia
School Journal, the shortage exists
principally in the one-room Schools IN
those small and th!nly settled commu-
Entities that are not able to support largo
school plants and TO pay liberal saIaries
TO teachers. e.
The school problem In these comnun-
mites Is necessarily a difficult one
First OF all the interest OF the patrons
themselves must DO aroused: citizens
must be made to feel that there Is no
>duty moro important than maintaining
their schools, and there is no sacrifice
too great for that purpose. Perhaps tho
state owes q duty to communities that
are no. able 10 maintain schools regu-
raa-ly, and more liberal state support
should be furnished than there has been
In the past.
We are learning to take more COM
--orehensive view OF our social duties
generally; TO feel that we are concern
ed not only In the welfare OF the citI-
benshlp Of our immediate ne!ghoorhood'
but also in the welfare Of the citizen

West Virginia have just voted INT!

The greater part of the money from the

tho whole this may be good th'ns De-
cause cities and towns mines and man

without farms, and the farm life OF this

be made more attractive and more

farmers and farms.
For the same good reason the state
--rfeh, ~ find a way TO make sure OF de-
cent school facilities In every part OF
West virginia: TO supplement. where
necessary, the scanty funds which local
patrons are able to raise for school pur-
poses. No boy or girl in West Virginia
should be denied chance for common
school education. These 1000 closed
schools and these 10000 school chill
