PREPARING FOR
EDUCATION week
ANIMAL WEEK" WILL Be DEVOTED
TO FURTHEDING THE CAUSE OF
EDUCAUI0N FOR ALL

The United States Bureau of Edu-
cation. with the American Legion
and the National Education Associa-
tion, Will promote a third national
week for education, December 80 in
elusive. President Harding will is
sue a proclamation at the proper
time. The presidents proclamation
VIII probably come early in Novem-
Der. The governors OF all the
states have been invited to issue
proclamations.
The purpose Of this week Is to GEN.
ter attention upon the needs of our
schools. There are certain phases
OF ducation which. 1t is geneally
agreed. require emphasis from q
national standpoint. Among these
are Americanixation; better trained
and better paid teachers; more ade-
quately equipped buildings lover two
thirds OF the school houses in the
United States are still one-room
schools): eradication of il~literacy;
Improvement Of rural schools: and
physical education and hygiene.
In order that these phases of edu-
cation may be made prominent in
the Observance Of American Educa-
ton Week, II has been agreed to
designate certain days in the week
for calling particular attention to
some of these, outstanding needs.
Therefore, It has been decided that
Sunday shall be observed as God and
Country Day: Monday, Citizenship
Day; Tuesday. Patriotism Day; We'd
nesday. School and Teacher Day:
Thursday, ~1lliteracy Day; Friday.
Equality of Opportunity Day, anil
Saturday. Physical Education Day.
Education is no longer the privi-
lege Of a favored few; it is a neces-
sity for all. The field of knowledge
has broadened enormously and the
demands of civilization upon the in
dividual have increased tenfold in
the past half century. The training
required to fit one for a worthy place
In the professions or In industrial or
commercial life has inceased CORE
spondingly, and the opportunities for
acquiring that training have kept
pace with the requirements for it.
High schools, fully equal to the COL
ieges of the past. are open without
8 to every child in the land; and
university education may be had by
any capable student, regardless of
the financial condition of his parents.
Scholarships. loan funds and oppor-
tunities for self-help r freely avail
able.
Every consideration demands COM
plete education and no insuperable
barrier stands in the way. The par
ent who does not do all he can to en-
able his children to obtain all the
schooling their mental capacity per-
mits them to assimilate fails iEnobly
and inexcusably in his highest duty.

the first place with stealing an over
coast belonging to a High school stu
dent on the night of a dance at the
school building on the night Of Octo-
Der 81. He was found in possession
of the coat which was positively
identified by the owner and one of
his schoolmates but told a cock

down the railroad tracks to catch a
freight train for Wamsutter where
he had a job. and having met a
stranger who, when he saw some Of
ficers approaching. started to run.
leaving him (Espee) to hold the
coat. This yarn was fishy enough,
and the judge told him SO. but his at
torney succeeded in creating q doubt
by sending out for his employer, who
was expected to prove hat defendant
was in Wamsutter on the night the
coat was stolen. This gentleman had
left town so the alibi was not per-
fected.
There was nothing possible but .

the charge of the theft OF the over

found guilty and sentenced to 80 days

WYOMING CRUDE TO GET
MID-CONTINENT PRICE
Continued from Page y

Of the field and that whether or not
there will be bids It the MIDI ontin-
ent price from persons or corpora
tons which are able to take care of
the entire volume, proffers at a rate
considerably higher than the present
field price are certain, with resultant
better prices for crude from prop
critics of the Independent producers.
AS the date approaches for the
sale 1t becomes more apparent that
the bidding will be keen and that
some high prices will be rendered by
companies which have or hope to
have facilities for moving this oil
when the contract becomes effective
on Jan. 1, 1928.
At present the Midwest Refining
company holds the contract and pays
the government the posted field price
for crude which has varied from SO
cents to $2.75 a barrel. At the time
the contract was made q deal was eff
fected with the United States ship
ping board for the delivery to It Of
fuel oil at seaboard at rates which,
while they have been satisfactory to
the shipping board. have not pro-
duced the price for the royalty oil
which Secretary Fall believes 1t IL
worth. When this contract was en-
tered into the Midwest company was
the only purchaser of Salt Creek
lcrude and was the only owner Of
pipe line facilities from the field.
Now there are two other lines in op-
GRAFTON, both OF them common car
riers, which car compete for this
oil. amounting at present to about
8.400 barrels and estimated at H.
900 barrels by the first of the year.
or which might be utilized by other
bidders to transport the oil for them
in the event they were the successful
competitors.
1t Is understood that the Texas
company, the Producers and Refiners
corporation, the Standard Oil COM
pany OF Indiana, and the Ohio oil
company will be among the bidders,
and 1T is possible that the Sinclair
Crude Oil Purchasing company, in
which the Standard Of Indiana has a
half interest, will also submit a bid.
The Sundance Petroleum company,
which proposes to build a pipe line to
Forsyth. Mont, will be among the
bidders. according to men identified
with its organization. but whether 1t
can give assurance Of its ability to
take the oil on Jon l, which will
convince the secretary Of the interior,
remains to be seen.
The situation is likely to become
complicated by the fact hat should
any corporation not affiliated with
the Midwest Refining company OBJ
tain the award the latter is not obli-
gated to move the royalty oil but may
throw the burden back upon the pro-
ducers, who would be required to
store this oil or effect some compro-
mise with the interior department
until transportation facilities were
available. The central Pipe Limo
company and the Western Pipe Line

FLORiDA-WHAT SHE WAS

The following article from Uncle
Ben Bradley" will be read with inter
est by many of the Banners readers.
The Bradley Pond" almost big
enough to be called a lake, has dried
up, like number of other ponds.
The Barlow Record says:
The author, Uncle Ben Bradley,
moved to this state in 1S45, when it
was a territory, and settled in what is
now Marion county, four miles south
east of Ocala. Bradley pond, beauti-
ful little body of water at that place,
bears the family name.
HE assisted in ciyilizing and har-
monizing the Indians, when the red
man dominated Florida and stood
monarch Of all he surveyed" and
also fought through re civil war
The poem is as f. s:
THE hardened head, with torpid
origin, knows not what this land CON
tains. But active brains. experience
and skill, show what man can dc if he
will. The land that's now a desert
waste, can be made to suit the grand
est taste, and unto this wide, wide
world show, two blades of grass where
one grew before. Florida, the lovely
land Of flowers. of orange groves and
magnolia bowers, with her gentle
breeze and sulphur streams, that af-
ford health and wealth a plenty it
seems. Come away from your cold
and feeling Cline come at once. for
you are losing time While Florida
is on a citrus boom, put your Shout
der to the wheel and let her loom
Oranges like nuggets of gold in the
thick foliage so green, afford you the
prettiest sight the eye has ever seen.
Why, there is such a friendly social
feeling among natural Floridians, it's
gifted to them by natures scenery.
Retire to the forest, and there you
can behold the softly soughing pines
that stoop 10 kiss the jessamine vines
Around you are the beautiful lakes,
where you can sit on the borders and
be famed by the gentle breeze that
watts itself through the resinous pines
over the placid bosom of. those beau-
/ tiful sheets Of water, and disperses
every cloud Of sadness or gloom that
may hover over or around you, smooth
every furrow OF care from your brow.

TABLOID FLORIDA HISTORY
By Acnevy Welsh

The last days Of Don Juan Ponce
de Leon (born 1860. knight Of Spain
governor Of Porto Rico, adelantado Of
Florida" were spent in Spain
On his final and fatal trip to the
Florida coast. begun in February, 1921,
he had two huge caravals manned by
a large force and when he set sail
from Spain he was accompanied by his
beautiful and accomplished wife, the
Donna Dolores, for whom he had
named bay in the vicinity of St.
Augustine.
Leaving the Donna at Havanna he
set sail across the straits. entering
what is now called Charlotte Harbor.
His scribe reports that near this point
was the village of Senguene, as it's
chief was named He told the chief
he was seeking the magic waters OF
which he had been told. The chief
replied that there were many springs,
both great and small, chief of which
was in the province of Ocali-so great
that there flowed from it a large river.
Though informed that the followers
of Senguene were at enmity with their
northern brethren, yet he was able
to engage few of these Indians to
accompany him as guides in locating
the big gusher, sailing northward
he found snug harbor and started on
the march inland with detail of two
hundred men, accompanied by the
Indian guides.
Advancing to the northeast he found
the great springs at Ocali, where he
also found thousand rude Indian
huts,' substantially built but deser-
ted" The journey thither had been
beset by attacks by the Indians, who
shot arrows and hurled javelins at
the Spaniards.
The return journey was even more
hazardous. though their attacks were
in the main quite ineffective, due to
VIC pAoACCSAA9 Ol Lu6 0Ddu-
iards. On the fourth day. when but
a league or two from their ships, the
Indian attack found a vulnerable
point, like the classic one in Achilles
heel, save that De Icons was higher
up, an arrow striking home in the
commanders thigh while ne was try
ing to rescue one of his men.
A retreat was sounded, the vessel
boarded, and they set sail for Cuba.
At DeLeon's request he was taken to
Matanzas, east of Havana, where he
had left orders to have home con-
structed. He soon became delirious
from fever and died in a few days,
his devoted wife reaching his side be-
fore he expired.
Here, recorded history ceases, for
Florien Mann, one OF his historians,
says that Neither is there a slab of
stone nor sheet of metal that has his

ABSOLUTELY UNFIT

"To hell with the Anti-saloon
League"
This is the opinion Of State Prohi-
bition Officer A. L. Allen. and ex-
plains why the enforcement Of law
under his direction is SO rotten in
Florida.
We naturally expect a bootlegger
to shout ITO Hell with the Anti
Sa.oon League" but to come from an
officer whose duty it is to enforce
prohibition laws shows the officer ut
terly unfit for the responsible posi-
ton he holds.
The success of the Eighteenth
amendment is due mostly to the Anti
Saloon League and the W. C. T. U.
These organizations are composed Of
thousands of the best men and women
in this country
Mr.. Allen should be ashamed Of
himself. He has proved his unftness
for the positi0n-tne conditions show
that he is incompetent.
Any man in such a position should
work enthusiastically in cooperation
with all moral forces to prevent boot
Logging, etc.
Everybody in Florida knows that
the bootleggers are growing more
numerous and they will grow more
numerous as long as a prohibition
officer can be found who says ITO
he'll with the Anti-Saloon League. "
