has come when other good people
will follow suit, as / have heard a

press themselves as willing to sell
if possible in order to get their

seems that there can not be high
school established in Meadow Bluff

late law provides that the Board Of
Educations shall lay a high school
levy. The Board of Education of
Meadow Bluff district has paid
out of this fund for a number Of
young folks who went to other dis

very trying to a man with q sense Of

"A hero, you know, must never
smile, except tenderly, or sardonlcally,

lose his dignity no matter what hap

he must make love to all kinds OF
ladies he would never think of wooiug
In real life. And above all he must be
always horrlfyingly In the right.
He may appear to be wrong for

did those of the other allies. There

Is small ground for this objection be-
