CONSOLIDATION HOPE OF THE
RURAL SCHOOLS

Realizing that the one-teacher
school which was inherited along
with the ox-cart is no longer ade-
quate for an airplane age, and taxed
to the limit in order to secure even
mediocre teachers, the rural conmun-
tiles of Kansas are turning hopefully
toward consolidation as cure for
the shortcomings of the one teacher
school Too often the iH-prepared
underpaid teacher is squandering
time with five or ten pupils.
OF the 5000 one-teacher schools in
Kansas, 5000 or 81 LIZ per cent have
ten pupils or fewer, according to
Prof. M. L. Smith, of the rural school
department of the Kansas State Nor
NAL School Fifty to one hundred
schools are closed because they can
not get teachers. One thousand of
the 5000 teachers are under stan
dard, many of them being certifcat-
ed because of the teacher shortage.
One county reports that SO per cent
of its teachers are under standard.
Another reports 40 per cent.
It is impossible for the country dis
trict to pay a good teacher the wages
that she can get in the city schools,
to say nothing of better housing CON
dltlons and social life which the city
offers her. The only way out of the
difficulty is to have fewer schools,
which of course, will mean fewer, but
better teachers.
The automobile and telephone have |
lone away with the old hue and cry |
about having the children so far from |
lome- The motor truck and the good I
'oads movement have brought about
! situation that is conductive to CON
Children can be hauled in

OUR COMMUNITY SPIRIT

Occasionally, but not often, we
hear of some community which is
blessed with a rare and priceless
spirit-the spirit Of Live and let
live" But it is so rare as to be
almost non-existant in this day of
sharp practices and bunco games.
There is much of that precious
spirit in this town, but there is
room for more.
We have fully our share of good
will and tolerance, but we could
cultivate more with honor to our
selves and profit to the community
Life to each of us consists mainly
of what we make it. We can cast
the soft rays of sunshine and
happiness over our existence, or
we can fill our lives with the
shadows of greed and avarice and
Unsuitable longing for those things
which we may not possess.
This is our home-the place
where most of our lives will be
spent-where memory is always
dear to us.
Shall we seek to cast out what
there is Of the spirit of greed, and
suspicion, and ungenerous rivalry
among men?
Shall we surplant it with one OF
kindness, of tolerance, and of good
will toward one another?
Shall we make honorable thrift
the watchword of our community?
1t is the ideal existence, and is
possible to any community where
the people have the will and the
courage to follow the path of honor
and gentleness wherever it may
lead.

A CASE OF EVERYBODY.

Everybody walks the streets OF
this town.
Everybody sees bits of paper and
refuse on the streets-possibly
everybody helps to put them there.
Everybody thinks they are un-
slightly and should be removed,
but everybody waits for everybody
else to do it,
Now if everybody would make a
point of picking up this refuse we
would have more slightly town,
and everybody would take pride in
living in a place which everybody
helps to keep clean.
Let's everybody get busy for
the benefit Of everybody else.

Home on Thirty
Days Leave

DR.. G. A. McEwen. who left here
about fourteen months ago for Wash
ington, d. c., to enlist for war work,
returned home the first of the week
on thirty days leave Of absence. He
was assigned to work in the San Juan
Reservation of the Navajo Tribe of
Indians in New Mexico, where he has
since been employed. The San Juan
Reservation is composed of 100000
acres of land, which is sub-divided in
to five tracts and is occupied by the
five tribes of Navajo Indians.
He likes his work very well. The
Navajo, Indians are different from
other Indian tribes in that they have
never been pensioned by the govern
ment, and are self-supporting. One
of their principal industries is the
making of Navajo blankets, for which
there is a constant and strong de-
mand. There is no fixed design for
such blankets. In fact it is claimed
that no two of them are exactly
alike, being designed by the individ-
ual maker. All of them contains a
hole, however, through which the
"evil spirit is able to make its es-
cape from them"

| accept the issue rendered. | have
invited Judge Priest to a joint cam
paign, that the arguments for and
against the League may be presented
fully to the Democrats and other cit
izens of Missouri. | have done this
not because l fancy myself his su-
perior in debate, notythat we may SIM
ply parade ourselves as candidates,
but that we may discuss the principles
involved, which | deem to be as vital
and hold as dear as the welfare of
mankind.
You and | have seen our sons and
brothers depart for war. Some we
have not welcomed back; others have
come home to us, imping and SCARED.
This nation with all humanity has
felt the heart-ache through long days
of cruel war. We wish none of it
again for ourselves or for our children.
The league plan proposes cooperation
for peace. 1t is held out as an olive
branch, offered by nation to nation.
It may not succeed, but this we know,
that the end of all other ways has
been death. If League of Nations
be established, there can be war, there
may be war, but this also we know,
that if it be not adopted, there will be
war. Let us at least make the expert
ment. Humanity bids US do it.
Standing here at the beginning of
this campaign, l pledge myself as a
candidate to present the reasons,
which move me to hope for peace
through this undertaking, with all my
heart and to the utmost of my ability
that the voters may have presented to
them so far as am able the reasons
and sentiments which actuate me. |
further pledge that if elected to the
Senate of the United States, shall
likewise with all my heart and to the
utmost of my ability uphold these
principles to the end that through this
plan there may come peace on earth,

An Innovation
of Much Promise

Sundy Liolios, the enterprising and
progressive confectioner Of Farming
ton, who for the past several years
has been successfully engaged in bus
mess in this city and Flat River, has
just purchased the halfway house"
between Pennington and Flat River.
This property contains about nine
acres of land, including about an acre
of splendid grove, which will be clear
ed and put into the most attractive
condition possible. .
Mr.. Liolios will have work started
Immediately of putting the house and
premises in condition for place of
rest, pleasure and recreation, for the
many who daily pass that way. In
fact, his intention is to make of it. an
attractive park, where will be served
soft drinks and all manner of confec-
tions. He will also serve there short
orders and regular dinners, and will
make speciality Of catering to din
ner parties.
In order to make that park real
"oasis," which will attract those seek,
ing rest, pleasure and refreshment
from modest lunch to the finest pos.
sible dinner, he will have the services
of experienced chefs, who know tht
cravings of the inner man and how
to satisfy such cravings. Those whc
know Mr.. Liolios'-"Sundy" as he is
familiarly known-thorough manner
of going through with anything he
undertakes, can see in this undertak'
ing great success. The possibilities
for such an enterprise are practically
unlimited.

DO YOU WANT HARVEST HANDS

Jefferson City, Mo-, June 16.-With
applicants for work as farm hands
and harvesters averaging $50 day at
the Kansas City, st. Louis and St. Jo-
seph State-Federal Free Employment
Bureaus, it is up to the farmers of
Missouri to Immediately forward def
mite information to Commissioner
William H. Lewis, the Director of the
cooperative service, as to their needs
before these men are directed to fill
the large call for help from the vast
wheat fields of Oklahoma, Kansas and
Nebraska. Applications for farm
hands and harvesters are being han
died at the Kansas City bureau of the
dual service, 804 Grand Avenue, the
headquarters for the service which
covers the big central-western wheat
zone of the country.
The State Federal employment SER
vice is cooperating with the Missou-
ri Farm Bureau Federation of Colum-
bia, Mo-, which has a branch in every
agricultural community of the State,
and with all county farm agents in
the effort to Immediately supply Mis-
souri, farmers with all the help they
need. The service, being a State-Fed-
eral institution, is entirely gratis. A
postal card from a farmer addressed
to the State-Federal Employment Bu-
reau, 804 Grand Ave-, Kansas City,
Mo-, detailing the help needed, the
monthly wages and similar facts will
bring forth men and women to fill all
places.

DISCHARGED SOLDIERS

The Southwestern Division of the
Red Cross at st. Louis has been asked
to notify the st. Francois County
Chapter of the Red Cross of recent
announcement of the War Department
that several thousand civil service po-
sitions under the department are now
opened for discharged soldiers par
TALLY disabled from wounds or dis
eases incurred in the war.

ed veterans and their widows or wives.
Some of the positions under the
War Department in which partially
disabled soldiers may be employed
are those of stenographer, typist,
clerk, file clerk, messenger, watch
man, multigraph operator, mimeo-
graph operator, blue printer, skilled
laborer, foreman of laborers, packer,
sign painter, electrician, carpenter,
painter, checker, elevator operator,
storekeeper, timekeeper, and the like.
Information as to the positions and
their locations may be obtained from
any office of the War Department

Federal Board for Vocational Educa-
ton, or full particulars may be had
by writing direct to the United
States Civil Service Commission
