Marketing is Question.
The question of marketing the
wheat is the vital issue that is now
facing the farmers of Grady and
surrounding counties, Mr.. Owens
states.
That there will be practically no
cars available to ship the grain to
market is now very apparent, he
states. As the only solution far.
mers of Grady county are being
urged to construct temporary storage
and hold their wheat until this con-
dition is relieved. Strikes at differ
ent points in the United States are
partially responsible for the inability
to got cars to the wheat regions o
the United States. railroad officials
say.
According to Farm. Agent Owens,
very little storage is available in the
county. Practically all elevators, he
adds, are empty, but these can store
only about one-fourth of the county's
crop. Up to date, few farmers in
the wheat growing section of Grady

which to store this grain.

wheat crop will be marketed at local

"B|NGV|LLE" FIRE DEPT.
SAYS BUSINESS MAN
Raise in Rates by Insurance Com
panies Is Feared-Immedliate AC-
ton Urged

Pullman's deplorably inadequate
tire equipment came in for another
grilling at the meeting of the cham
Der Of commerce Tuesday when one
prominent citizen referred to the To-
cal department as "Bingyille fire
department" with a deplorable lack
OF fire fighting equipment that would
nullify the work of the best organ
lied fire brigade on earth. The mem
bers Of the fire department, he said,
do the best work possible with the
material available and are not to be
blamed for the inadequacy of the
system. 1t was pointed out that the
fire insurance companies are begin
ming to take cognizance of the fire
situation in Pullman and that a sub
stantial increase in insurance rates
is sure to come unless the necessary
fire equipment is provided soon
Proper inspection OF the freight
ing material now on hand would help
to a great extent according to the
sentiment expressed at Tuesdays SEES
sion, when it was pointed out that
al the fire Friday night, when a ga
rage and automobile burned, there
was no wrench on the hose cart to
tit the hydrant and it was impossible
to put water on the fire until another
cart had arrived, on which wrench
was found
The employment of ID paid fire
chief, who would have quarters in or
near the hose house. was one Of the
remedies suggested. The chief
would be charged with the RESPONSE
bility OF supervising the equipment
and having it ready for use at all
times.
The city council included an item
Of $4,000 in its budget for the pur-
chase of fire equipment and the sen
timent expressed Tuesday was that
the city dads should secure this
equipment at once and not wait I'M
til the money is available, making ar
rangements TO carry the debt until
the $4,000 is secured by taxation.
The matter OF better fire depart
ment has been considered by May
nard-Price post Of the American Lee
gion and the returned service men
are now considering the ACCESSIBILITY
OF attempting d REORGANIZATION of the
department in the interests OF the
community good.

cational education to receive a high

The former amount for students
under the government was $50
Through a canvass of the city most
OF the people running boarding

appreciation of the vocational men is
very great, as their allowance has

from last July.

EDUCATION BIGGEST
PROBLEM OF THE DAY
DR.. Il. o. Holland Addresses Business
Men on Educational Questions
Tells of Evolution of
Education

The biggest job in America today
is the educational problem, accord
ing to President E. o. Holland of the
State College, who gave an interest
ing address on educational topics be-
fore the chamber of commerce Tues
day. DR.. Holland dealt with the ey-
olution of education and the methods
employed in training the young peo-
pie from medieval times up to the
present. Democracy, he pointed out,
has demanded more and more of the
schools and less and less of the
churches and the homes as time has
gone by until now the problem has
assumed proportions that demand
the attention of the entire people
Public opinion and morale were
pointed to as essentials of efficient
education, and the latter depends to
large extent upon the former, &C
cording to DR.. Holland.
DR.. Holland mentioned the school
boards in the various communities as
the most important organizations in
those communities, yet it is surpris-
ing and deplorable how few of the
citizens even know the personnel Of
those school boards. A school board
without public opinion behind it can
accomplish little, while a board with
the proper public opinion and the
proper morale can do more real good
for the community than any other
agency, he said in substance
Natural ability along any line, he
pointed out, is an invaluable asset,
but unless education, properly bal
anced is tied up with this natural
ability, the height of efficiency is not
reached.
I'm this time Of isms we must
train the mind of the child as thor
oughly as we train the best race
horses or the best athlete, and to do
this we must have the right leader
ship, the right public opinion and the
right morale" he said.
DR.. Holland pointed out the neces-
sity of we'll qualified and properly
tempered teachers in any educational
system stating that a half-baked in
structor can do more real damage
than a mother and father can do
good at home
At the close of the discussion a
motion prevailed to the effect that
the trustees of the chamber make ar
rangements for community meeting,
at which time an educational pro-
gram of interest to all will be given.

The score, he reported, does not
show the real difference in the

that which clerk Of the General
cigar store had to make good, and
C'Kelly was arrested upon his COM
plant
The youth entered no defense 9TH
er than that he was intoxicated at
the time ne passed the checks, and
he seemed little concerned when sem
fenced.
A friend of his who served with
him in the 146th field artillery of the
4fst division at the Marine, Chateau
Thierry and the ArGonne said he was
one of the best soldiers in the hat
terry. He was only Is years old
when he weat in and he had to lie
