EXCHANGES RETURNING.

We welcome the Sparta News
to our exchange table. Time
was when the News had a valued
list of exchanges, but when the
crowd at Washington now, thank
goodness! about moribund, de-
cided it must have all the paper
in order to win the war, orders
were given publishers to cut off
all exchanges lover forty miles
away. The result was we have
had the company of only,a limit
ed number of the fraternity. 1t
was a great paper-saving move
ment, worthy of the brain of the |
clan, but we noticed the great |
city dailies that cut US off their
lists the subscriptions were
generally paid for in advertising
space were extremely anxious
to send their publications at SUBJ
scriptions for cash, but, of
course we couldn't do so for two
reasons. One was want of cash,
for we were giving about every
thing we got to one thing and
another to win the war;, and
the other was that Immediately
we did so we would be using the
very paper that it was so neces
sary to save. So we sklmped
and saved and worked while the
gang at Washington wasted, de-
and squandered. But
now the familiar exchanges are
.imidly coming back and we are
glad of it, for it means recovery
rom the terrifying times of the
past

COAST DEFENSE VIAL

We are rather impressed with the
statement of Gen. Beach that oul
coast defense Is vital, and that with
proper guns "only a foolhardy enemy
would risk his ships in an attack"
"Permanently located and con-
cealed fixed guns" he said, "suffer
practically no damage from hostile
naval fire, according to results OBJ
served in the late war" and that the
efficiency of guns on shore against
guns on ship "was overwhelming"
While the cost would be high
there is absolutely no use to omit
preparation against attack. We
would much rather see money spent
in preparing against attack than see
it spent in transporting the youth of
the land to every quarter of the globe
for every conceivable duty from po-
lice on up. We are strongly of the
opinion that Americans, from the
fair haired youth to the older men
with hair streaked with grey, if prop
erly equipped, can repel any enemy
which proposes invasion. And,
knowing our preparedness and the
disposition of our people to fight vi
ciously for their country and liberty,
we have no idea that an enemy, un-
less absolutely devoid of reason,
would attempt a landing on our
shores.
There is practically no defense of
our important points now, although
the naval board of review urged it
five years ago, and it is to be hoped
that that the coming administration
will see to it that proper defenses are
made
The better plan would be disar-
mament and expenditure of money
on the roads of the country. But

tons ro'not treat one another in a

TO HELP SCHOOLS


The next legislature will effort made tt

ence of Tennessee citizens education as follows:
Congress will be asked pass the Smith Turner Bill
in aid of state education
The Scent elementary school tax will be divided
third going to schools in counties having less than 14O
days of school.
Elementary certificates shall be granted teachers only
after the completion of high school work, after July
1922 years attendance after July L. 1928 two
years attendance, and for four years.
High School Certificates after July L. 1922, shall be
issued only upon completion of fouryear high school
After July 1, 1923 and 1924 on completion of
at least years. respectively of college
NAL school work.
This amendment is not to interfere with existing
tficates reject applicants where high school advan
tages do mot exist.
To provide by special one-haf mill tax that each
county shall be paid $500 year for each college
NAL school graduate employed 5000 each high school

~ Inc village Blacksmith
By Henry W. LOngfeIOw
Under spreading chestnut tree
The village smithy stands;
The smith mighty man is he,
with large and sinewy hands,
And the muscles of his brawny arms
Are strong as iron bands
His hair is crisp and black and long:
His face is like the TAM
His face is wet with honest sweat.
He earns whate'er he can,
And looks the whole world in the face.
For he owes not any man.
week In, week out, from morn till night.
You can hear his bellows blow:
You can hear him swing his heavy sIedee
With measured beat and slow.
Like sexton ringing the village bell,
When the evening sun is low.
And the children coming home from school
Look in at the open door
They love to see the flaming force
AND near the bellows roar,
And catch the cleaning sparks that fly
Like chaff from threshng floor
He goes on Sunday to the church,
And sits amongst his boys;
lie hears the parson pray and preach;
He hears his daughters voice
Singing in the village choir
And it makes his heart rejoice:
1t sounds to him like her mothers voice
Singing in paradise
He needs must think of her once more,
How in the grave she lies
And with his hard, rough hand he wipes
tear from out his eyes,
Io1lng rejoicing, Borrowing,
Onward through life he goes;
Each morning sees some task begun,
Each evening sees it's close;
Something attempted, something done,
Has earned nights repOse.
Thanks, thanks to thee, my worthy friend
For the lesson thou hast taught
Thus at the flaming forge of life,
Our fortunes must be wrought;
thus on its sounding anvil shaped
Each burning deed, each thought.

The Kendrick gazette. [volume] (Kendrick, Idaho) 1892-1968, 1920-04-16

1t is understood that petition is
being circulated by dissatisfied
element in Kendrlck Highway Dis
trict, TO have the district dissolv-
ed. A formidable line of propa-
ganda is being advanced to show
why this petition should be signed.
However, it Is we'll to look into the
matter thoroughly before signing
any such petition. The bond cleo
tion held short time ago, was lost
because of Misrepresentation on
the part of some of those who were
opposing it. The same tactics are
being used to secure signers on the
petition.
1t takes a majority on petition
to dissolve highway district. 1t
is not likely that over fifty percent
of the residents of the district are
SO entirely lacking in judgement
that they will be persuaded to sign
this petition. Now that the dis
trict is formed there is no logical
reason for having it 60 back to the
county. The county commissioners
unofficialIy stated this week that
they could see no advantage derived
by having the district come back
under their control. No more
money could be made available for
roads under the county plan than
under the present highway district
system, in fact, more money is
available under the highway plan
than could possibly be secured un-
der the old system. Ii the petition
is put before you with the story
that more advantages would accrue
to the roads of the district by hav-
ing them put under the control of
the county commissioners, tell the
party circulating the petition that
you don't believe any such bunk,
that you are better posted than to
take stock in fairy tales.

1t costs in the neighborhood of
$500 to raise horse to It's working
age, at the present prices of feed.
Unless the price of horses is kept
up to a level proportionate to the
cost of raising the animals, there
will be a shortage for farm work.
There are very few colts on Pot
latch farms these DAYS. This would
indicate that IN few years farmers
will have to buy their horses from
outside points, unless the conditions
at other places is the same as here.
The farmer who does not raise at
least enough horses for his own use
on the farm will no doubt pay a
high price later on when he is
forced to renew his horse power.

There never has been a time in
the history Of Kendrick when the
future looked brighter for the town
than it does now. With a hard
surfaced Main Street practically as
sured, there will be other develop
ments coming up that will mean
big things for both the town and
the Potlatch country. There was
more united action displayed at the
Club meeting last Monday evening
than ever known before. With a
continuance Of such united booster
spirit Kendrick can do anything.

Some men would sign petition
to have themselves hanged. Don't

bIot to you asking that Kendrick

say yes, but the man who never

Why wouldn't it be good idea
for the Kendrlck Highway Commits
sioners and the Potlatch Highway
Commissioners to get together and
talk over conditions generally?
Both districts have some common
interests that could be worked out
to the mutual advantage of both
districts.

now and have reached this con-
Clusion:
That there are plenty Of DAN
gers for the silly girl. And That
the girl Of common sense and
modest behavior can avoid
them.
In other words. it all depends on
the girl herself.
The first thing that startled me
in New York was the way the
girls and women dresses.
a girl wearing a bathing suit or
ball gown on the street Is bound
to attract attention from men. II
she also does her hair in a freak
