ito Of about GO to 40 between Wood

test of popular approval OF Woods
candidacy, he has run first or second,
yielding first place to Johnson only In
Michigan and Nebraska, where be was
a close second, defeating all other cam

New York Leans Ever Woodward.

New York, Although the
people OF Ohio will actually vote for
the selection of only As delegates TO
the Chicago convention at the polls on
April -, the result of their bulloting
will materially influence So delegates
from New York state at nomination
time.
A poll of the Empire states So del
egates, elected on April 6, shows that
they are for the strongest candidate,
with a leaning toward General Wood
because he is In the lead. The rel
markable showing General Wood made
in Illinois against Governor Lowden
has boosted his stock with the So New
YOrkers and they. Hre now watching
Ohio. If General Wood makes as good
showing against Senator Harding In
Ohio as he did against Governor Low
den, this fact will practically Insure
the vote of the New York delegation
for him,
John ). Lyons, a leading New York
delegate elected TO so to Chicugo, said:
1.-TWO things sre certain about the
New York delegation: First, It is not
for Senator Johnson, because oil the
Johnson pledged candidates for dele
gates were beaten by three to one oE
worse IN the recent primary election;
second, 1t Is going to vote for the
man who Is nominated. At present 1t
looks like Wood is going to be nonll'
mated, for lie has split the delegation
In one favorlte sons state and 1t looks
like he has q chance TO split another
favorite sons native states delegation,
II be does the New York delegation
will regard him ns the man most likely
to get the nomination and will support
him after a complimentary first ball
lot for DR.. Nicholas Murray Butler. A
recent poll showed Wood was the
first choice of 75 per cent of the peo'
pie of New York state, and If to this
sentiment Is added the Illinois ,oHt-
come and similar result In Ohio, 1t
can readily be understood why Wood
would stand ace high with the New
York delegation

Change in HiIda Road

w. H. Adams, John H. Soutee, Henry
M. Williams and other citizens Of the
neighborhood Of Hilda and KiSsee Mills
have petitioned the county court TO
change the public road running from
Kissee Mills to Hilda so as to run on
the west side OF Beaver creek from the
Stewart ford above Kissee Mills, cross
Max creek in the John Davidson farm,
and intersect the old road as now trav-
eled at the Ezra Davidson ford, thus
cutting out two OF the worst fords in
the neighborhood. This is a very de-
sirable change and will be great help
10 all the people in that neighborhood,
as they can get into Kissee Mills and
Forsyth without crossing Beaver creek
at all, and the people OF Caney and
Long creeks, as we'll as the people
around Rueter and Nance and many Of
the people in the Protein neighborhood
can get to the countyseat BY only one
crossing oil Beaver creek. During the
high waters caused by the recent rainy
spell the Hilda mail has had 10 travel
over the hill from Hilda by Job Hobbs
larm and down on 10 Max creek by
Henry Williams farm and then across
another big and very steep hill 10 the
county road down Winkle creek 10
Kissee Mills, making a circuitous and
very difficult route. There is about a
quarter Of mile Of bluff on the west
side Of Beaver creek that will be heavy
grading and will cost considerable
money, but the public spirit Of the cit
izens Of that neighborhood is shown by
the liberal manner in which they have
subscribed money and labor to build
this new road. The county court ha:
pledged $4,000 Of the county funds
TO assist in opening this road on con
, dition that the Hilda people raise
$4,000, the Kissee Mills people
$4,000 aud that the Kissee Mills
Taneyville special road district contrib
ute $500 90, making in all 100000
for the work. The county judges ant
the road commissioners looked over th'
. proposed change last week and declared

apart will build a good road. Tn,

The High School

This week marks the close OF the
school year at the county seat. In
school matters Forsyth has shown that
type Of leadership that should charac
terize the county seat town. We
would be glad 10 see the time when
every boy and girl in Taney county
would look forward to four years high
school course alter completing the work
in the home district. It is to help this
ambition to become a fact that we
each year offer the high school an issue
Of the county paper to show what the
school has accomplished.
We hope to see the school grow, 10
see parents, board and teachers closely
cooperating TO make the school a
greater instrument OF service. Pri'
marily the leadership must rest with
the teacher, and her profession, like
that Of medicine, demands an ethical
standard much higher than is required
for mere commercial success. Il is
one OF the anomalies that a hod carrier
receives much higher pay than teach
er yet the teachers profession requires
the rare gift Of leadership and an ideal
Of service that the hod carrier does not
need to know or understand. We
make no reflection on the hod carrier,
anv man in any station who does hon.
est work demands our high regard, but
we speak Of this because there is wild
agitation rife especially in the ignorant
parts Of the world which seeks to exalt
physical labor and 10 beliitle intelli-
gence. Russia has tried this on the
grandest scale ever known. After tie
Lenine cut throsts got charge intelli-
gence was crime, men and women
gifted with leadership were destroyed,
only hand labor was recognized. Por-
duction promptly fell of, no one
worked, there was no direction. In a
wild debauch the Bolsheviki used up
the small surplus that benighted coun.
Try had. Now they have learned that
intelligence can not be destroyed and
the mass prosper. Without leadership
we sink to the level Of brutes, wild,
inarticulate horde. Today the same
gang that was proclaiming a utopia to
Russia wherein all might live happy on
two hours work per day are resorting to
enforced labor Of twelve hours per
day.
The protection Of America from such
Is her schools and her teachers. We
must demand the quality Of leadership
ln our teachers and must also be quick
to recognize the obligation that de-
mand implies. No one has a right to
teach who thinks only Of dollars and
cents, we have no right for that reason
TO withhold from the earnest teacher
q just recompense. Forsyth has done
her best to meet the trying condition,
she has voted the highest levy the law
allows. For the sake Of even better
schools we need to change that law
that we may still grow in matters oil
education. We are proud Of our ma
tive American stock, these hills may
yet keep the nation steady when the
unassimila,ed elements Of the cite:
endanger our national life.
Let US push the schools.
