to have opposed such a course and Mr..
Blair testified. II was reported. that
he regarded Mr.. Moorehead as a state
leader and himself Il lieutenant" and
as such agreed with Mr.. Moorchead.
Senator thomson contendcd that the
reports from tho primary as well as
the delegation's consideration OF the
matter Indicated that Mr.. Moorchead
as boss swayed the delegation

Blair's confirmation were based on the
nominees action as a delegate from
North Carolina to the Republican ma
uonal convention at Chicago in not
having supported the senator's candi-
dacy altho tho state primary prefer

STAY IN SCHOOL.

The Brattleboro Reformer gives
some timely advice to the boys and
girls to resist the temptation to leave
school before their high school courses
are finished, declaring that in educa
ton lies the way to material success
and spiritual success. The advice is
most timely at this period of the year
when the boys and girls have just fin
ished the long grind of the years work
and are facing summer of entirely
changed conditions There is apt to
be a let-down in, effort, with feeling
that the hard work of the school year
is over; and there may develop in con-
sequence a lassitude of mind which
viii cause the boys and girls to look
forward to further study with revul-
sion. That feeling comes to many. 1t
should be resisted most strenuously
because submission to the feeling is
the first step toward weakening of the
mental and spiritual fibre. To give in
to the temptation to quit schooling is
a sharp surrender to the easiest way;
and that surrender means further sur
renders, which, in turn, mean the
weakening of the character of the indi-
vidual. Ion't do 1t. Stay in school
unless it is absolutely imperative that
the schooling must end. Parents should
lend their influence land that influence
should be powerfully toward continued
at school until the high
school course, at least, is finished. As
the Brattleboro contemporary points
out, more education is needed because
the standard has risen since your par
ents and your grandparents went to
school and there is keen competition in
the race of life. To be best prepared
for that competition more education is
required now Therefore, boys and
girls, stay in school Let the summer
vacation be merely an incident in the
march toward the fullest education
possible.

CURRENT COMMENT
The Civilian Training Camps.

Nothing we did in the years immedi
ately preceding our entry into the war
| contributed in larger measure to mill
tary preparedness than the civilian
training camps at Plattsburg. Thou
sands of robust young citizens attend
ed these camps and obtained the pre-
liminary instruction which enabled
them to qualify as officers in record
time when the real emergency came.
The country owes great real TO Gen
eral Leonard Wood for the promptness
with which he realized the value of
these camps and the interest which he
took in them when he was commander
of the eastern department.
The war department has decided to
continue the policy of providing each
ing for civilians and to afford this OPP
portunity in all parts of the country.
For the first corps area, which includes
New England. the training will be pro-
vided at Camp Devens during the
month of August. The camp will be for
able bodied men who are not over 80
years of age. The government will pay
the expenses of those whose aPplica-
tions are accepted.
Congress has committed itself to the
policy OF reducing the size of the reg.
ular army; 1t is now practically set.
tied that our permanent military es-
tablishment will. not exceed 10000.
This means that we must rely, in case
of another emergency, upon the ma
tional guard and civilian mobiliza-
ton. The country is not in favor of
universal military training; large
portion of our people have a deep-seat
ed aversion to the idea of eompulsion
in time of peace. But great deal can
be accomplished on voluntary basis
and those who believe that certain
amount of military training is a good
thing for every young man will now
be given every opportunity through
the continuance of the civilian training
