Violation of the state law against
cigarette smoking by minors ,y,was
brought to the attention OF the
Rathdrum board of trustees Toes
day night in connection with the
report OF the suspension oE;a
student for smoking on the school
grounds and in the building during
school hours.
1t was pointed out in effect that
the efforts to enforce the rules on
the school grounds and the teach
ing Of the harm that the vicious
habit does to growing boys by
dulling their intellects and sitting
their ambition to prepare them
selves for law abiding and useful
citizenship, have been to some
extent unavailing because boys are
allowed to smoke with impunity in
fragrant violation Of the law when
on the streets and in public build.
ings. In at least the one instance
the habit acquired on the street
had apparently become so strong
that it could not be resisted on the
school grounds.
The board voted to instruct the
marshal to proceed with the en-
forcement of the law and 10 warn
dealers against selling or givir 6
cigarettes to minors.
In the discussion it was cited
that recent ruling of the attorney
general points out that "minors
under IS who smoke or use cigar
cites, cigars or tobacco in any form
upon public highways or other
public propeFties may be declared
delinquent and committed to
reformatory" and that "every
minor person who shall smoke, etc,
shall be guilty of misdemeanor."

MUST HOLD CROP

kansas City, MO, Sept 14-Farm-
ers of the spring wheat producing
area of the northwest are to be asked
by the growers of winter wheat to
hold their crop until it brings $2.75 a
bushel at county elevators. Plans for
this action were made yesterday at a
meeting of representatives wheat
growers here from Missouri Kansas,
Oklahoma and Nebraska.
Decision was made to establish
headquarters in winter wheat states,
and send personal appeal to every
farmer urging him to continue to hold
determine the amount of wheat each
farmer has on hand, how long he can
hold it, and if he is financially pressed
urge him to sell only enough tc relieve
him from embarrassment.
A statement was issued explaining
that the holding of wheat for IS at
terminal markets will really mean
cheaper wheat to consumers in the
end for if that price is not obtained
there will follow a great decrease in
wheat acreage and a resultant higher
price for wheat.
Explaining the action of the confer
ence, Maurice McAuliffe, president Of
the Kansas Farmers Union said:
eve feel the time has come for a
showdown IF. we submit to the steal
in wheat, it will be made the besis of
sim liar steals IN corn, hogs, and cat
tie"

The disregard for law by those
who term themselves the better class

in the United Staes at this time.
It is possible to be a patriotic citi-

What is true Americanism ?


The other day I heard a fellow
rantIng around because some of the
foreign born citizens of the county
were talking the German language on
the streets and are using it in their
religious services. You would have
thought from the way he was pound
ing around that he was one of the
truest American citizens, both by
birth and in spirit, that could possibly
be found in the whole nation, but he
IS not The true patriotic American
will try to live in accordance with the
laws of the state and nation This man
laughs at laws and prides himself
IN his ability to evade them If he
can slip an extra charge over on a
fellow citizen he will do it He viii
violate the prohibitory laws of the
state and nation and tell you he is
cute by being able to do So The
state and national game and fishing
laws are mere scraps of paper to
him. If the law says he should not
keep a pig within the city limits at
certain seasons of the year, 1t makes
no difference, he keeps them If he

lows:
First. working against the interests
OF members of the church who are not
her followers and against the interests
OF this church. Second. persisting In
teaching and practices which are con-
trary or Christian Science.
From that time there has been evil
denced no change of thought upon the
part OF the board of directors as to the
character OF Mrs. Stetson's teachings.
rhat the action Of the board OF trus-
tees or First Church In dismissing a
considerable number of inactive mem
bers is another evidence of the ruses
employed by the material heads OF the
church: to Interfere with the efforts TO
preserve the true spiritual import of
the teachings of Christian Science, as
Is alleged, Is equally untrue. 1t is as
serted by the trustees that these per-
sons were part of a considerable body
of members who were dropped because
OF inactivity and infrequent attedance
upon church services, In accordance
with the bylaws of the church and
without reference to previous church
affiliations.
II am creditably informed that the
Christian Science board of directors. the
authoritative governing body of this de-
nomination, had no knowledge whatso-
ever that any action was to be taken
regarding the removal of members of
this branch church. 1t may be stated,
however, that manfestly it is the
bounded duty of this board to protect
the cause of Christian Science from
whatsoever encroachment. and the
