Red Cliff School Notes


The chemistry class gave a very in
teresting exhibition last Monday morn
ing The first stunt was the changing
of wine to water. Two glasses were
placed on the table before us, one con-
tanning wine, the other water. piece
of string was produced and an end put
in each glass. These were covered, and
in few seconds the cover was re-
moved. To our amazement, the glass
which formerly contained the wine was
full of water and the other glass con
tanned wine. They next gave us an idea
of how Mount Vesuvius looks when in
action. This was a very pretty sight,
the flames shooting up about foot in
the air. Another feat was the imita.
tion of n 44-caliber six-shooter. THIS
was very well done, and our ears rang
for hours afterward. The boys made
some iron, and it was SO hot that it
cracked the crucible that contained it
and hade a hole, about one-half inch
in diameter, in the pan into which it
dropped, although the pan was filled
with cold water. The stunt was a reg.

ALI pointed sut that those who i'm
pett goods into the United Dtates
should b mads to pay "fsir iaare Of
our cost Of government
"One Of tho hne things President
Harding has said before, Ard which he
repeated in his message to congress, IL
thst 'we must have les government in
business and mere business in govern
nsnt.' It il not fair that business
should have to compete with the gov
eminent whore al the risks for the
government are ~ By ~ public
treasury. Better business methods in
our government are needed, and with
the cabinet now in fine working order
this will be accomplished.
81 don't relieve any man in the
world would ike to ses some, arrange
ment made, to do away With war more
Than would warren q. Harding. But
he is big enough to see that no such
arrangement can b made until real
peace is again i'll the world. He also
knows that we cannot cease to protect
ourselves, TO build navies and keep our
ARMIES, until there il no longer any
need 70 do 50. Certainly the present
is no time to leave ourselves without
protection. n
FAnd something else, Riddles. 1t
costs something terrible to travel these
days. A man has almost to be mil
lionaire to travel. President Harding
urged i'll his message that railroad fares
be cut down, cutting the cost Of run
ming at the same time.
Remember this further thought
from his message, and then you must
run along to bed There 10 knowledge
of the high cost of government today
and high cost of living is inseparsbly
linked with the high cost of govern
ment. There can be no complete cor
rection OF the high living cost until
the government g cost Is notably re-
duced. If the men who ran our gov
eminent during the past eight years
had thought that way, living costs
would now be back to normal. But
spending, wasting, throwing away, was
the first thought. Saving and helping
the people to save by cutting down
the cost Of running the soveznment was
the last thought. Those days arc past.
No: superman, nor dictator nor an
autocrat sits at the White House.
There is Il real MAN there, who can
thi'.k ahd talk i'll the terms understood
by Tom, Dick and Harry, the average
American citizen. A man who can
play BALI morning, noon and night
for American principles as they wero
founded and sealed together in the
Constitution of the United States.

he could not legally commit our
people.
But there is a moral commitment,
implicit in the facts, which is out
ragged if any part of our great war
contribution is diverted into f.
nancing a blody campaign upon
Irish freedom.
We loaned Great Britain nearly
$4,000, 600, 900, have not yet asked
for any Of the principal, and have
deferred even the interest, carrying
it by our own taxes.
1t is the right of friendly credi-
tor, when he sees a business being
mismanaged, and in this case we
believe it is also duty, to point out
the mismanagement.
Ireland is not being governed by
Great Britain, for government inn
plies an honest and reasonably sue
cessful administration of justice un-
der law.
Ireland is being devastated by ruff
fans in British pay who observe
neither law nor justice. The con-
tinuance of this anarchy serves no
useful end, is scandal to humanity,
and is impairing the security Of the
British Empire and of our debt.
It is not enough, then, for Ameri-
cans as individuals to sympathize
with the victims of this great wrong.
America, to be true to its own best
traditions, must as a nation declare
its adherence and record it's solemn
protest.

When william warfield Wilson. NJ. c.. from
Chicago, was teaching school in the little min
ing town Of Nampa, Idaho, twenty-five years ago,
. restaurant-keeper served a tough piece OF
steak to girl named Minnie. Minnie protested
Minnie went and got her gun, came In the back
way and began to shoot The restaurant man
fled and she after him down the street When
Minnia's ammunition was all gone her victim
bled freely, but was not seriously hurt
Minnies feler gambler named Jimmie Tur-
ner, was forty miles away when he heard OF the
fracas. He owned the prettiest pinto pony In
Idaho and dashed away to Nampa- The pony
carried him all the way but fell dead upon his
arrival
A young attorney named william e. Borah
came down from Boise to defend Minnie and Sc

ted the indiscretion of declining to drink when
invited by the gambler and only the Intervention

There are now about 1000 plumbago mines in
Ceylon, including all the shallow pits, open
works and deep mines. The depth varies from
q few yards to as much as 700 feet Most OF the
mines are worked by natives, the only important

In the majority OF the mines the only machinery
