MOSQUITO CAMPAIGN A
 GENERAL HEALTH CAMPAIGN

A mosquito campaign should be primarily a campaign against ma laria for although the insects are a nuisance to everyone, the disease which they carry is the real menace. Now every campaign against any disease carries with it some incidental benefit in regard to other diseases. The fight on tuberculosis brings a standard of living which aids in fight ing diseases as different as hookworm, typhoid and pellagra, and a mosquito campaign is no exception to this rule. It requires thorough screening which will protect against the fly and the disease it carries; it requires the cleaning up of the premises, remov- ing sources of infection, it requires prompt reporting of malaria cases and brings about more prompt re- porting of others.

FEDERAL COURT SYSTEM
 HAS DEGENERATED

Those who are familiar with the working of the federal court system are more than ever impressed with the necessity of a change. The fed eral district court has degenerated into scarcely more than police court. A few years ago it was court of the greatest dignity, in which cases only of great importance and a relatively small number of misde- meanors were tried. The enforce ment of the Volstead Act, however, has loaded the calendar with literally hundreds of minor and often trivial cases, which demand the attention of the court. The sale of half a pint of moonshine liquor or the manufac- ture of home brew in a wash kettle have become serious offenses against the government. Recently in the Arkansas court an entire day was de- voted to the trial of man before a jury for killing a yellowhammer. It has been suggested, and our delega- tion in Congress has become interest ed in the proposition, that relief be provided for the overworked district judge by transferring jurisdiction in misdemeanor cases of this character to the United States commissioners. Opposition has been offered to this on the ground that this would mean the transfer of judicial power, which the law provides shall be inherent only in the judiciary. However, some re- lief must come else the district judges will be so overwhelmed with misde meanor cases that they will have no time to devote to matters of greater importance.

AT GRAMMAR SCHOOL

Assembly occurs once week at the grammar school. On these occa- sions under the direction of commit tees appointed for the purpose, some thing new in the way of entertain ment is given. But the climax was reached this morning perhaps, when a special feature of the program was the appearance of the Glee Club, composed of high school boys and directed by Mrs c. c. Nelson. Each number was splendidly given and highly applauded The boys were re- peatedly called back. Their harmony was excellent and the individual leads by John Sage and Carl Reed were especially good. Their number in- cluded "Margie," "Whispering," "Old Oaken Bucket" "Medley of Southern Songs," Let the Rest of the World Go Bly," and several catchy encore songs. A folk dance and motion song were given by little folks from the primary grade. Splendid read ings were given by Margaret Sue Martin, Ben Franklin Edwards, Mar guerite Darlington, William Rose man, Abbie Griffith, Gertrude Pye and Winnifred Duke.
 A change has been made in the fifth grade. MT. Owen Duke has taken the place of Mrs. W. H. Dowd, for the remainder of the term, and is doing splendid work.
 Only two more weeks of the pres ent school term remain, and final ex- aminations are already beginning to make their appearance.
