''We are living, we are dwelling,
In a grand and awful time
In an age on ages telling,
To be living is sublime.
We are facing one of the most crit
ical as we'll as one of the most oppor-
tune periods in the history of the
world.
Every day we come face to face with
its appalling problem in the home, in
the school and in the business world.
For solution of these problems we
must look to the schools of America,
where we will find the Drawn and brain
which will soon control the future
destiny of this country.
The degree and manner in which
they will measure up to the standard
will be influenced very largely by the
training in the school room. Conse-
quently years spent here during the
formation period of their plastic lives
are years of great Importance and op.
portunity. They are. years of prepa
ration for life's work.
Do you value the future? If so, you
are interested in the schools of Amer
lea, you are greatly interested in your
own school, you are vitally interested
in your own child's welfare. The full
fillment of his or her greatest ambition
is your burning desire. This is lust as
true of every conscientious teacher.
Such teachers greatest reward is the
advancement of each individual in the
school. We must be satisfied with
nothing less than progress and eff
cheney.
In order that the school may prop
erly function, a wholesome cooperation
of home and school is the paramount
requisite. 1t is your school, and is In
your community for the explicit pur-
pose observing your needs to the full
est extent possible.
We wish you would feel free to visit
school at any time. We feel assured
that all would be benefited by your
doing so. Parents can not justly see
through the eyes of their children;
nor, is the child's judgment of school
problems always to be verified. Come.
The pupils of Central Vale on the
whole are true blue, energetic, cheer
full, willing workers whose attitude is
most cornmendable and worthy
but how much we can still improve
We are glad of 1t for then we will be
kept busy.
The community has been most inter-
ested, appreciative, and helpful in
their cooperation. The school board
with their efficient chairman, and also
the Mothers Club, are deserving of
special mention for their part in our
school life.
1921 is here Let US make it count.
Yours in the interest of the schools,
Fannie Brenaman.

The Washington Post remarks
1.-THE average man with red leanings
has yellow back" There is a vast
amount of truth in this assertion. The
man who is continually berating the
president, congress, the courts, the
governor of his own state and the
legislature generally has a broad vel
low streak running right through
him. Having neither the ability to
make success Of anything he under
takes nor the manhood to assume the
responsibility for his own failures, he
attempts to shift the blame for his
shortcomings on those individuals
who by virtue of their own indus
try and brains have climbed the ladder
of success and are in positions of au-
thority. 1t is utterly useless to at
tempt to help one of these weak speci-
mems with yellow streak. He will
smite the hand of the friend who is
attempting to aid him, for he knows
not the meaning Of the words loyalty
and gratitude. The chief danger of
having such creatures in communi-
ty is that they pollute every organiza-
tion and individual with which thew
come in contact. Like the lepers in
the days of old they should be Stunned
and their approach heralded with the
cry unclean, unclean.

1t is difficult to find words to ade-
quately praise the Scottish Rite Ma
sons Of the country for the many hu-
manitarian and benevolent institutions
which they support homes for Grip
pied children, homes for orphans
homes for the poor, etc. AS an in
stance, the twin city Shriners, an in.
tegral part of Scottish Rite Masonry
will complete in the spring hospital
for crippled children which will cost
$225000 and the order will subscribe
$4,000 a year for it's maintenance. 1t
is planned that this institution shall
cooperate with the projected Michael
Bowling hospital for crippled children
No higher spirit of humanitarian can
be conceived than this of providing
treatment for our poor unfortunate
little cripples. We have surgeons to-
day who perform wonderful operations
and hundreds Of crippled children have
been restored to normal condition by
the application of their remarkable
skill.

Every. day there are strange occur
rences, but when reforms once start
in a country politically behind the
times they are likely to make precipi-
tate, if somewhat eccentric, progress.
A short time ago the Bombay (East
1ndian) legislative council, by vote
exceeding two to one, enfranchised
women, thereby placing something
like half million female voters on
the polling list. A majority of these
live in a condition Of guardianship and
privacy, and, even when educated,
cannot be reached by ordinary cam
paign methods. Customs stronger
than laws forbid the attendance of
these women at public meetings; hence
if serious persistent effort is made
to bring out the female vote, it may
have an interesting effect upon social
customs. To say the least, the situa.
ton is peculiar one. -

ON THE BASIS OF MERIT.

There is no necessity whatever fol
the editor of the nonpartisan paper in
Milaca to become so perturbed con-
corning the appointment Of the post
master in that village. He devoted
the larger portion Of his editorial
page to a discussion of this matter
last week but somehow he did not
seem to thoroughly cover the subject
Three applications were filed for the
office of postmaster and one was elimi-
mated on the first examination of the
papers; the two remaining names to
be considered we're Charles Allen and
Fay Cravens. About dozen ques-
tionaires were sent to the patrons OF
the Milaca postoffice concerning the
relative merits of these two appli-
cants, their standing in the communi-
ty, loyalty, moral habits and fitness for
the position. We understand that no
later information concerning this ap-
pointment has been made public.
1t was not known for some time
that the editor Of the Times really had
filed for the office, but in the early
part of the summer it became ap-
parent that he was taking considera-
bic interest in the appointment. While
the Times has in the past supported
Thomas Schall, it's interest in our con-
gresham seemed to be on the increase
this summer. Speeches and communi-
cations from him were given a promi-
nent position in the weekly issues and
he received favorable editorial notice
The popular report current in Milaca
is that the editor Of the Times is
Schall's candidate for postmaster.
Now Charles A. Allen has been post
master in Milaca since 1916 and has
given splendid satisfaction to the pa
irons of that office. When they heard
that competitive examination was to
be held for the office they circulated a
petition asking to have Mr.. Allen re-
appointed. Approximately 1,400 pa
irons of the Milaca postoffice signed
the petition and sent it to the post
master general in Washington. 1t
might be added that over half the
signers are farmers.
Just recently President Harding has
stated that it is the policy of the ad
ministration to appoint the postmas.
tiers on the basis of merit. He is not
in favor of allowing these appoint
ments to be awarded as politica
plums and the congressman therefore
may not be allowed to exercise Their
personal choice alone in naming tn,
postmasters. Mr.. Craven's plans may
have gone on the rocks right on thi
point. Congressman Schall may no
be allowed to select the postmaster a

the patrons of that office may be con
sidered.

Senator Knox.

The sudden and untimely death of
Senator Philander c.. Knox, of Penn
sylvania, will be mourned by the
American people. He seemed to be
in good health, and many years of
public health seemed to be in store for
him. Although he had been in the
public eye since McKinley's first term,
he was still in the prime of life and
mental vigor. 1t is difficult to realize
that this splendid and powerful INTEL
lect, so recently bearing upon current
national questions, has ceased to ap-
erate,~ and that his stored-up expert
ence> and ripened Judgment are now
erased from existence.
+ Senator Knox filled a distinctive
place of his own. He did not resemble
other men. He had no political arts,
although he had been in politics for
many years: He spoke always direct
ly, without regard to the effect of his
words upon his>personal popularity
His admirers in all quarters of the
country ardently desired that he
should be president, and no one ever
denied his high qualifications for the
office. He served brilliantly as at
torney general, secretary of state and
senator. He was industrious and pa
trlotic without thought of self-glorifi-
cation, and he never failed to give his
best services to the nation. The value
of his contributions to legislation and
public opinion is beyond calculation.
His influence was ,modestly exercised,
but it was none the less potent and
beneficial.
The United States can not avoid the
loss of it's best men, as they pass one
by one into the unknown. But it can
and will cherish their memory and
thankfully record their services. The
name of Philander C. Knox will not

There is no denying the fact that,
as nation, we are optimists, No
matter what happens in the United
States we, as people, are invariably
searching for the silver lining. Pes
simists of course, we have with us,
but they ere in the minority. We hear
their wailings and even the crashing
of their teeth, but we do not let that
worry US a bit. Instead, whenever
these grumblings meet our ears, we
grit our teeth and go forward to bet
ter efforts. Right now there seems
to be a concerted movement on the
part of some people to start a cam
paign of grief, and they want us to
stop awhile and weep with them.
They are painting a picture of gloom.
With the coming Of the cold weather,
however, we will have no time to stop
and listen to discontentment, for that
is what all this amounts to. When the
first raw edges of winter enters the
scene and cuts chilly circles in the
various communities the end of the
period of discontentment will come.

the downhearted movement are about
due to become metamorphosed.

Would Honor Stacker Dempsey.

Would Honor Stacker Dempsey. :.
Poincare, ex-president of France,
thinks, or says he thinks, the United
States of America should erect giant
monument as a means of celebrating
the prowess of our heroic Stacker
fighter, Jack Dempsey.
That would be fine and let's make
the monument of mud and set it up
in the center of the public square at
the national capital and invite Poincare
to come over and make the dedicatory
speech. .....
The worst of the whole thing is that
Poincare is in earnest about it, and
there isn't doubt but that the plan
would be accepted by those who con-
tributed the two or three million dol
lars the pug-ugly gang pulled in at
the Dempsey-Carpentier fiasco last
summer.
But it will not take root in the
United States. We do some tolerably
foolish things, nationally, in our eff
forts to squander money and worship
at the feet of heroes and near-heroes,
mostly the latter, but Dempsey hasn't
a chance.
In a few years from now all that
will remain of Dempsey will be the
memory of his skulking to keep out
of the war when his country needed
