THE REPUBLICAN
NOMINEE

The following estimate Of Warner
G. Harding, the Republican NOMINEES
for president, was written by Ton
McNeal, editorial writer on the Kan
sas Farmer and Mail and Breeze Mr.
McNeal is independent in politics and
fearless in his expressions upon public
men and policies:
"A man has been nominated for the
great office Of President Of the Unit
ed States who was born within . few
miles Of where was born; educated
at the same school where l received
most Of the schooling l had when =
young man; painted my fathers house
to earn money to help pay his way
in school; taught school in the same
county in which l taught school and
has for a long time been the editor
and proprietor of daily paper in the
county seat Of the county in which 1
was born. His father, as recall, was
reasonably successful country doctor
and is still practicing, altho about 80
years old. l speak Of these things be-
cause / know that the readers Of the
Kansas Farmer and Mail and Breeze
are interested in knowing something
about the early life and environments
of man who in all probability will
be the next President Of the United
States.
Warren G. Harding was not born
with silver spoon in his mouth,
neither can it be said that he ever ex-
perienced genuine poverty. His father
like most country doctors, did not ac-
cumulate any great amount Of wealth,
but was able to keep his family in rea-
sonable comfort. Warren had to work
to earn living, but that was common
among the young men Of that locality
IS or 40 years ago. He probably can
not be called brilliant man, but he ID
a man of good brain and is speaker
of more than average ability.
He has made success in business
way and owns a newspaper which is
a paying concern and which ranks
well among the papers of Ohio. His
wife is the daughter of Amos King,
whom knew very we'll and who en-
joyed the reputation Of being the
keenest business man in the town of
Marion. His daughter inherited
large share Of his business ability and
determination and has without a
ioubt been of great assistance to her
husband.
Warren G. Harding has generally
ieen credited with being a "stand-

his charge is well founded or not. AS

CANNOT SERVE ON BOARDS.
Teachers in Public Schools Are Not
Eligible for Positions.

Under an opinion recently given
by Assistant Attorney General L. E..
Hall, teachers in the public schools
of the state are not eligible for po-
sitions on the school boards. The
opinion was given out as aesult of
a question raised by nu er of
school teachers in New Orleans. Mr..
Hall says that votes cast for teachers
will be thrown out as they cannot be
counted for persons not eligible for
the position. The opinion is in part
as follows:
''The qualifications of a person to
be a member of school board, sec
ton of Act 120 Of 1915, are that
he shall be "a qualified elector in
the ward from which he is elected,
able to read and write, who does not
hold any office or position of honor,
trust or emoluments, city, parish or
state
"Discussing the question further,
will say that as teacher holds a po-
sition to which emoluments attach,
it would be in conflict with the law
quoted above for teacher to sit as
member of school board. Fur
ther, it would be contrary to the
policy of the law because the school
board employs and the teacher
serves. The school board fixes the
salary of the teacher, and it would be
serving in dual capacity if teach
er were permitted to act upon that
important matter

that he is On principal opposed to

no provision is made for the submis-

1T is my conviction he said,
that all delegates entrusted with the
important duty of forming our new

direct vote Of those who must live
under and be governed by that law.

week of the fair, lf-day sessions
only were held for four days and
there was no school on Friday.
/ In all probability, last weeks pro-

ucational as any single week of a ses-

Daume of the Red Cross, appeared
in the role of clown before the pu-
pills. His stunts were very amusing,
and his performance, to help the Red
Cross by joining the Junior Red
Cross movement-was indelibly i'm
pressed upon the minds of the pupils.
On Wednesday morning, Mr.. Davis
of the state experiment station, gave
an interesting lecture on bees and
bee culture Mr.. Davis showed the
old box hive in comparison with the
modern hive. He also had glass
case with the bees at work The pu-
I pills enjoyed immensely the talk and
demonstration of Mr.. Davis On
Thursday morning Mr.. Osigian of the

Building Foreign Trade.

The exports of the United States
in 1913 were about $2,465, 100000.
In 1918 they were about $5,928, ,000,-
| 900. The world has had to buy
American goods on account of the
war. No wonder the factories had
! more than they could do.
Now European industries are re-
viving, planning to get their old
trade back again. What will become
of the American industries that have
been depending on suddenly increas-
ed foreign business?
Many commercial authorities say
the only remedy is to send young
men abroad who shall settle down in
foreign countries and introduce
United States products. They need
to know the language perfectly, to
be we'll acquainted with foreign GUS
toms and needs, and to know the
business men personally. That would
make a fine career for many young
fellows now in school and college

Who Shall Pay for the Roads ?

The worst injury to the roads i.
done by big motor trucks. Some
people feel that the industries thai
ship by truck should pay a greater
share of highway cost.
Yet if you taxed them heavily fo1
road improvement, they would ado
the assessment to prices Of their pro.
duce. The consumers would have te
pay it.
1t would hasten highway improve
ment, if people living along roads
which it is proposed to improve,
would submit to special tax. Neigh.
borhoods that have had little road
money kick on highway taxes
1t would also help if those who op-
crate pleasure cars would pay heavier
registration fees, to be assigned to
highway work. Improved roads save
wear and tear on cars and tires. An-
tomobile owners night get the money
back which they put into road better
ments.

The Young Spenders.

Marriage is great stabilizer
Many people feel that the worst of
the extravaganza that has unsettled
economic conditions so badly, has
been dus to reckless spending by un-
married. young people, particularly
young men.
With thhe scarcity of factory Ia
Dor, many fellows scarcely of age
have earned much more than most
heads Of families used to get. Hav-
ing no responsibilities, they have
thrown money right and left. All
this spending where saving is neces-
sary, upsets the business of the
country.
As soon as these young fellows get
married, a lot of them begin to see
the necessity of thrift and settle
down to business. If they had only
been able to see beyond their noses,
they would have begun the practice
of thrift during the time when money
came easy, with 50 little demanded
