Roy, gleefully. "Yet some Of you
travel an awful lot" and there was
intense melancholy in his last SEN

And it was that melancholy which
suddenly gave me light upon Roy's
entire harangue. 1t was none other
than Bella Mcdonald. and her line
of CAB about having been so many
different places, that was making
Roy's existence distasteful to him.

your ears have not been deaf to the
cries Of the poor and unfortunate. To

the scope of our usefulness by max

Successful Business Men.


Second: Our own nation has rec
ognized I otary as an organization Of
honorable business men, who have
achieved success in their own bust
ness affairs in the face of apparent
insurmountable obstacles, and whose
experience, therefore, can when APP
piled to affairs of the nation in the
way of service be of material benefit.
"-'kird. Every single member of
Rotary can well feel personal pride
in the fact that, representative men
Of other nations have stated to and
of Rotary that, to this organization
they look as one of the chief agencies
to bring about a better understand
ing between nations and the people
of nations, thus building one mate
rial step towards permanent peace.
Rotary advocates principles which
stimulate men to an ambition to sue
coed by honest means and high ethical
standards. 1t has never espoused the
cause of any individual or institution,
which was not honorable and worthy.
1t offers an opportunity for men to
know and understand men, to respect
and uphold the law of the land, be-
cause of the benefit directly received
therefrom and not because of the
fear Of punishment for the violation
more of and to foll-v the guidance
thereof, to get closer to, to know
and direction of Him who does not
err but doeth all things well. 1t is
such service as this which carries us
to realms higher than that which en-
circle our small self, makes us to ap-
preciate our own insignificance and
to see real virtue and value in the
character and judgment of the other
fellow.

Now as the portals of the New
Year are swung ajar, and we enter
therein to encounter new responsi-
bllities, as well as to continue our
service in connection with the old
perpleXlng and far from solved prob
lens of reconstruction; are we not
better prepared, and can we not face
them with feeling of greater as
surance of right results, since we
know one another, and since every

IoI8-Io it was oI4,255. In 10000 It
was oo5,oI1, a decrease OF over 5000,
according to a statement made by
George W. Reavis, Assistant State
Superintendent of Public Schools,
who spoke to the Macon County
reachcrs' Association here.
Reavis said that one of the plans
for meeting the problem OF decreased
school attendance in the rural Sec
tions is the formation of county
school units for taxation for school
purposes outside the town and CITY,.
This will insure a uniform length Of
school term and equal school oppor-
tunities; also provide for the estab-
lishmert and maintenance of rural
high schools.
There will be County Board of
Education in each county, and this
board will have the power to mark
off districts and determine the loca-
ton of the high school to serve each
district. This will give some of the
poorer sections an equal opportunity
for high-school facilities with the
best.

Jefferson City, Nov. 22.-The SUI
preme court today oxerruled the ap..
plication of Herbert E. Badger OF
Rates County, for writ of habaes
corpus. Badger has been imprisoned
in the Bates County jail since last
August under contempt proceedings
because he would not produce his
three small children and turn them
over to- the custody Of his wife.
The parents have been separated
for some time, the wife living with
her parents in Colorado. She has
been trying for months to obtain the
custody of the children, and when
they were awarded to her by Judge
Calvird of the Bates county circuit
court they had been removed from
Badgers home at Rich Hill and
neither the Bates County officials
nor the mother OF the children so far
have been able to find them. After
he was committed to Jail for con-
tempt, Badger applied to the Kansas
City court of appeals, and the ruling
of Judge Calvird was affirmed. He
then applied to the supreme court for
a writ of prohibition against the cir
cult court and this was denied. Lat
er he filed the habeas corpus pro-
ceeding and this, too, was denied.
