Look To Elementary Schools

When We remember that the great
majority of American children must
look to the elementary schools for
their education, we can appreciate
what il will mean TO the boys and girls
of Anne Arundel county today not to
have necessary school facilities in
their own localities. 1t is depriving
them of an opportunity, that when
gone, is gone forever. 1t is depriving
the coming citizenship of the county
of the worth in the community OF men
and women who have had all the adj
vantages of its public school system.
The civic loss that may result is not
to be guaged by monetary standards
alone. To be penny wise is often to
be pound foolish

Problem OF Other Counties

ETUDftm vi VtHtT NVuHt1NS
practically every other county in
he State has very much the same
problem as to school buildings that
we have, and many of the counties
have, after interchange of views. come
to the conclusion that the truest econ
omy lies in the direction of borrowing
money for public school building
needs and relieving their taxpayers of
direct levies.
TAX rates are high enough now,
but they would be much higher if a
program of levying for several school
buildings every year is followed. Such
a program, too, is unjust to localities
not favored with new schools. The
taxpayers in the localities where no
schools are built must bear the same
burden as those who get the benefit of
new school building and still wait
their turn. In the meantime, the chill
dren of school age in the unfavored
locality are without needed facilities.
Bond Issue Is Solution
1.-THE one just and equitable way to
build new school houses, is not TO make
any distinctions among taxpayers or
school patrons. Here in this county,
as in other counties, bond issue of
100000 or S150,000 at percent ex-
tending a reasonable period can be
fioated, and with less than four cents
raise on the tax rate, with accumula-
tions from sinking funds, the princi-
pal and interest can be readily taken
care of.
ut is true that labor costs and
prices of materials are high, and 1t
might be said that we could afford to
wait until a cheaper era. But what
guarantee 81 esoonsible expectation
have we that school houses could be
built at any time in the near future at
less expense than within the present
or next year? Wage levels will be
maintained for a long time to come,
and they will never fall, while most OF
us are living, TO what they were a few
years ago AS to building materials,
there is little question that the in
exorable law of supply and demand
will govern prices in the future as
they do now. and that, upon the whole,
lumber, bricks. mortar, glass, paints.
hardware, fittings, etc, cannot be
bought much lower.
Il do not mean to say that five or
ten years from now building costs will
be as high as they are today Neither
would | say that bushel of wheat or
a bushel of corn or other products of
the farm will bring less than they are
bringing now, or will bring in 1920
The farmer, like every other class in
the community, is getting more for
what he has to sell, and he will con,
tinue to get more, as his expenses,
like the expenses of all of US, have
increased.
High Prices Affect All
what we call high prices, affect
every buyer and every seller and
every avenue of industry. Public edu-
cation cannot hope to be exempt, and
we may delude ourselves when we fail
to face the public school situation in
this county just as it is.
I'm the first place We must appre-
ciate the Importance of providing
school facilities for the children of to-
day. The need is immediate and urg-
ing. Adequate and sanitary buildings
ought to be the heritage of the next
generation of public school children.
but the parents and taxpayers of that
generation will have problems and du-
ties which perhaps few of us can for

ANOTHER EXPOSURE.

The Nonpartisan Press of the state
are publishing series of articles is
sued from the Townley headquarters
to the effect that the farmers of this
state have saved s3,O0O,0OO in dock
age alone through the management
of their grading. Also that the
farmers of Minnesota, by the thou
sands, are taking advantage of
North Dakota dockage law. Penn
bina is located just across the river
from Minnesota and there is no
wheat being hauled into the state at
this point nor has there been.
Where these thousand farmers live
is a mystery to us. Kittson county
has as shrewd farmers as any bor-
der county. If these reports are
true we expect they would take ad-
vantage Of it.
This political boomerang coming
from the Townley headquarters
sounds just like the denial made that
the farmers taxes in the state were
not raised this year, when every
tax receipt issued show an increase
Of about one hundred per cent more
than year ago.

1t is amusing to see how the Nom
partisan politicians are trying to
defeat w. w. Felson for county audi
tor. It is not ability nor courtesy
these fellows are considering. Mr..
Felson is considered one of the most
competent auditors in the state and
he never tires in imparting informa-
ton when you ask him. The trouble
with these Townley leaders is that
the auditors Office is an important
one and they would like to do with it
the same as they do with the re-
cords of the Bank of North Dakota
and sundry other public institutions
they are n1uzzling. Mr.. Felson will
be elected bv the largest majority
of anv candidate who has opposition.
And he should be.

AN UNSOLICITED COMPLIMENT

At the election on November End,
the voters will be called on to vote
for county official paper. Every
paper in the county is entitled to run
for this, but The Times is going to
waive its right and ask it's readers
to vote for the Pembina Pioneer Ex-
press. We do this because we feel
that the Express is the one most en-
titled to the honor. Not only is it
the oldest paper in the county, but it
is one Of the oldest in the state. It
has ever stood for the best interests
of Pembina county and the state.
Again we ask our readers to vote
for the Pembina Pioneer Express for
county official paper of Pembina

Sheriff Hamilton is another officer
the Townleyies are after. Not be-
cause he has not performed his duty
as sheriff, but because they want that
officer to do their bidding just the
same as they intended to do with the
"state sheriff" that was knocked out
at the primaries. The sheriff's of
flee is an important one and Mr..
Hamilton has performed the duties
of the Office as it should be. The
sheriff can only hold Office for two
terms at the best. If there is no.
thing against Mr.. Hamilton but the
ambition of some of the Townley
leaders to control it, then elect him
by a rousing majority and show that
politics can be kept out of county
affairs.
Robert Mcbride is one of the old
line Democrats, true to his colors
and honest in his dealings. If there
is an Office in the court house that
should be kept out of politics it is
the Office of county Judge. In that
Office are the interests of widows
and orphans decided. It requires a
person with ability and good juge-
ment to decide between right and
wrong in many probate cases. Mr..
Mcbride has done it. Elect him
again. We have fought many bat
ties politically with Mr.. Mcbride
but when it comes to electing coun-
ty Judge we are for. him and ask our
readers to give him their vote for he

: Made Many Improvements Since
) Taking Over The Cambridge Shirt
Co.'S, Factory On High Street.
/;
Our reporter having received an
Invitation to visit the b. Y. d. FactO-
ry was agreeably surprised to note
the many changes, both inside and
put. The building having recently
been thoroughly painted by Mr.. Wan.
c. Bennett which shows the careful
workmanship usually displayed in
all of his work.
When one enters the work room
and gazes down over the machines
and their operators at work it Is
very pretty sight to behold, every
thing has been arranged SyStemat-
ically and one can tell that it has
been done under the supervision Of
an experienced manager and one who
takes the comforts of the employees
into consideration as well as the
firms interest.
The plant is eletricified through
out and over each machine is an ad-
Unstable light that can be raised or
lowered to suit the operators re-
auirement. The plant is the last
work in regards to sanitary con-
ditions.
The old slogan, "a place for
everything and everything in its
place." seems to prevail at this
factory; all cases that are necessary
are arranged so that they are easy
to get at and ar the same time in a
place that could not be used to q
better advantage.
:; Mr.. VIM. M Crane is the manager
and Miss Catherine Posey is the
fore-lady. Mr.. Crane having been
employed for nearly rs years by the
E, Rosefeld Co., makers Of the ceIe-
brated Faultless Pajamas and
Night-Shirts, and has wide expert
ence in the management of factories
and the employment of help. Miss
Posey formerly of La Plata, Charles
County, has been employed for
a number of years in the manufaCt-
ure of B. V. D. garments, and is
painstaking and patient with all
employees and liked by all.
Mr.. Crane also has under his
jurisdiction the plant at Easton. His
time, being divided between the two
places.
If the local managers continue
improvements as they have started
there is not a question of doubt
that this will be the model plant of
Cambridge.
This plant has the honor of put
ting out work that has received the
hearty approval of the Officials at
the main Office in Baltimore.
Each and every garment is care
fully inspected before it leaves this
factory and again inspected before
it leaves the main Office for ship
lnent.
These people are advocators Of
the best; and nothing but the best
of material and workmanship is al
lowed to pass their inspectors
