In wartime days, a certain Topeka
Toung man who was a member of the
Great Lakes Naval band visited
Springfield, ILL.,. while on a tour with
the band. The jackies travelled in a
special car and enjoyed their visits to
the various towns, but their Spring

the girls OF the city. One Particular
girl made the occasion especially
pleasant for the Topeka young man.
She continued to be interesting to him

WHICH SHALL BE RED?

There is no exchange which to this desk
which embodies its editorial pages more sterling
regard for democratic principle than does the Tulsa
Tribune and nothing finer has appeared IN It's
columns than the following recent editorial;
.Dr s D. Brooks, the president of the University
of Oklahoma recently put into simple and SELF
apparent phrase of Americas Greatest problems
when he said that unless interested ourselves in
the welfare of the school teacher and gave her an
honest and decent wage for honest ana patriotic
work the once famous little red school house wouid
soon be transformed into the nations fear OF the
little red school teacher.
I'VE cannot neglect the foundation OF education
and as the school teacher to serve our country
and train our children to adore country's flag
and at the same time treat her as if she wasn't
worth as much as the most ignorant foreigner who
comes to our shores glad of chance to bend his
hack to do our most menal, crude labor
"Some years back Henry Watterson hurled an elo-
duent warning against the tendencies OF our time
when he said: once the American loved liberty but
today he loves the dollar
ut is a common practice to estimate citizen by
his bank account and not by his devotion to his
country The man who is willing to make the great
est sacrifice to render his country the greatest
vice lacks the respect of the average business man
today while he who devotes his entire time to the
game of getting dollars has the respect OF the aver
age business man. and he is lifted up as the ex-
ample OF the possibilities OF American citizenship

ing wrong and insist that private rights every

talk, would think they hated the United States
Yet they want you to think they patriots
1.-The real test OF patriotism is not the test Of war
but the test of peace. The Lilcoln-ke devotion to
the interest of the plain people and the stout advo
cacy of those policies and principles that render the
greatest good to the greatest number is the real
test. That's Americanism- And the fellow who op
poses that. it matters not if he made milons-if he
opposes those policies, he is greater menace to
America than any obvious flag waving Bolshevik.
Such man is afflicted with the blood-red blindness
of greed He does not know the meaning of the
sublime words he fain would sing when his lips
humble My Country, Tis Of Thee
MEN of this kind so busy in self-seeking that
they have no time to invest themselves. their mind
or their conscience in the problems of citizenship
All they demand is that the government cost them
as little as possible that everybody in the govern
ment service get little possible they may
get as much as possible And in this mad for
the dollar the school house which is the very foun-
daton of our democracy is forgotten The teacher
who is the builder Of the character of the country
the preacher of patriotism. the trainer of the
custodans of our national life and liberty is wholly
forgotten. Such needless of greed are the last
who can blame her if she in turn condemns the gov
ernment that forgets her. If she cutivates in
difference to the flag in the youth of the land
then indeed has President Brooks picureque phrase
become timely warning for which people ought
to be profoundly grateful.
Just so the light of the sun shines upon
us if we forget the little school house. little
red school teachers will become the menace of
America
Must we wait for her rebuke to shock us into
sense OF DUTY TO COUNTRY? Have forgotten
the ideals which the builders of this nation carried
into battle? Is the spirit of i776 not even a faded
memory in 1920? Can not we once more adore
DUTY TO COUNTRY?
Which shall be RED-the school teacher or the
school house? Can't we help the school teacher
find her way back to the school house in time to
save from disaster?"

Florida Press Opinion,
Fair To Florida.

Florida has been written about a great deal in
the past few years. especially by the magazines and
periodicals and in some cases we have been given
very fair shake but in other cases we have been
treated supercliousy and faceousy and every thing
pertaining to the early days of activity the state
have been played up. while the later developments
that have into many millions of dollars have
been carefully ignored lightly treated as if they
simply experiments or a temporary fad or
hobby of the rich.
In view of having had of this class of
articles published recently in the Country Gentle
it is relief to find that known and thor
oughly substantial magazine, The Industrial Index
published at Columbus, Ga, giving Florida five of
its nine editorials in its of March II and each
OF these editorials complimentary to the state
or the city section of the state referred to-
St Petersburg given fine compliment as
wonderful winter resort city that is making a
phenomenal growth and looks as spick and span as
the Spotless Town of advertising fame Vero is
spoken of as making building record that is most
encouraging. Another editorial is headed Orange
Groves in Demand and number of prominent sales
are quoted. one being for sf5o0o00 at Winter
Haven and another for si8O0oO at Fort Pierce Still
another editorial tells of some wool growers at Mil
