HIGH SCHOOL BANK WILL
BE OPENED NEXT WEEK

Every up-to-date town or city in our
country today has a school bank and
endeavors through the schools to
teach the children the thrift Of saving
money. School children save in small
amounts, to be sure. but it is great
lesson for our future citizens to learn
that great things have small begin
nings. A few dollars. or few hun
dred dollars already in a savings bank
drawing compound interest is quite an
incentive to a young man or young
woman when he begins to earn his
own money to add to 1t and see it
grow.
The Delta schools are not behind
the times while other communities are
moving forward, for the Delta chill
dren are to have the same opportunity
for saving nickels and dimes and see
ing them grow to dollars. In other
words, the Delta Junior High and
Senior High will open savings ac-
counts with the pupils. Deposits will
be taken as low as five cents in the
Junior High and ten cents in the
Senior High school. When the pupils
account reaches one dollar or two
dollars it will be transferred to a
downtown bank, and will begin to
draw compound interest.
The parents are urged to cooperate
with the schools in encouraging the
boys and girls to have a savings ac-
count, and to keep adding to 1t. This
will be in charge of the Commercial
Department Of the High School, and
OF the Mathematics Department Of the
Junior High.

TEACHERS PUT ON PROGRAM
TO ENTERTAIN STUDENTS

The program rendered in the as
sembly room of the Junior Higt
School on Friday afternoon preceding
the Christmas vacation was something
of an innovation on the usual regula
tion program given by pupils, in as
much as it was furnished by the spe
cial teachers and Junior High faculty
and Superintendent Foster.
At 2:15 p. m. the Junior High stu
dents were assembled in the study
hall by the regular signal Of three
bells and shortly after tap at the
door proclaimed visitors. Mr.. Deck
opened the door and in walked the
entertainers, hated and cloaked, some
of them carrying travelling bags, as if
coming directly from the train.
Lining up in front of the rostrum,
each traveller (?) was introduced by
Mr.. Deck. who gave each one the
name of some celebrity of the musical
or literary world. For example, Mr..
Foster was introduced as Hon. John
P. D. John, the humorist and funny
man, Kansan by birth, Missourian
by choice, an Oklahomian by profes-
sion, and a Coloradian by fate. Each
introduction was greeted with ap-
plause by the pupils.
After the introduction the celebri-
ties co seated themselves until called
upon to take part in the program,
which consisted of instrumental duets
by Mrs. Brenton and Miss Burgin,
solos by Mrs. Pittser, accompanied by
Miss Helen Hillman; duets by Misses
Nelson and Matthews, accompanied by
Mrs. Pittser on the piano and Mrs.
White on the mandolin; quartets by
Misses Nelson and Matthews and
Messrs. Deck and Ratekin, accom-
panied by Mrs. Pittser; readings by
Misses Houston, Agnew and Horton,
and an address by Superintendent
Foster.
The sentiment of the program was
in keeping with the Christmas spirit.
and the appreciation of the audience
was shown in the hearty applause.
At the close of the program Mr..
Deck dismissed the pupils with hearty
good wishes for their pleasant Christ
mas vacation and invited the teachers
of the J. H. S. and special teachers,
Mr. Ratekin, Mrs. Pittser and Mrs.
White, down to the domestic science
rooms, where he presented to Mr.. Fos-
ter in behalf of the ]. H. S. teachers
in a few suitable words beautiful
gold watch chain; and to each of the
j. II. S. faculty and special teachers
box of chocolates.

Under the aggressive leadership Of
Senator Smoot, the Republicans have
made an enormous reduction in the
number of magazines published by the
government. This will mean not only
a saving in printing bills, but saving
in salaries Of persons who prepared
the articles and edited the magazines,
stenographers who did the clerical
work, clerks who kept up the mailing
Lists and addressed the magazines. and
supervisors who employed all these
people, kept their time and paid their
salaries. For every magazine discon-
tinued, there can probably be an ulti-
mate reduction of Is to 20 in the gov
ernment payroll-perhaps more.

MRS. WILLIAM PREWITT
ANSWERS FINAL SUMMONS

The swift winged messenger visited
the home Of William Prewitt Wednes-
day morning, January II, and called to
eternal rest the beloved wife and
mother, Mary Frances Prewitt. She
had just returned from a three
months visit with her daughter in
Iowa, and took sick of pneumonia on
Tuesday after Christmas, her death
coming two weeks later.
Mary Frances Kernohan was born
In Logan county, Illinois, October 8,
1875, and was 46 years, months and
days of age when called away.
The most Of her girlhood was spent
in Kansas. Four years ago she and
her husband moved to Delta. locating
on a ranch in Peach Valley, where
they fitted themselves in with the
social and business life of the com.
munity. Mrs. Prewitt was kind and
loving wife and mother, and friend
to all in need.
There is left to mourn her loss her
husband, two daughters, Mrs. Frank
Sampson OF Delta and Mrs. Halle
Everette OF Ames, Iowa; her father
three sisters and two brothers, be
sides many friends who have grown
to love her.
Short services were held at the
Remley mortuary yesterday morning
conducted by Rev. r. e. Sherman Of
the Presbyterian church, and the re
mains were taken to Valley Center
Kansas. where services will be held
Interment at Sedgwick, Kansas.
She was member Of the Christian
church and Of the order of Eastern

tricts would long ago have been estab-
lished in the vicinity Of numerous min
ing camps all over the state where
ready markets were provided. The
best test of thing is whether 1t
works in the required way. The prac-
tical test of the land policy which has
been followed in the National Forests
is whether 1t has opened to entry the
lands on which farming could be sue

compiled in 1919 covering every agri-
cultural entry. whether patented or
not, within the National Forests OF

the Forest Homestead Act was ac-
tually producing crops, and % per
cent OF the homesteads were unoccu-

These figures indicate that failure
rather than success is the rule on
forest homesteads. A great many OF
them have changed hands repeatedly.
Many others were abandoned as farms
and sold for pasture when patent Is

their occupancy OF the land with high
enthusiasm are depressed by small re-
turns and by the hardships encoun-

be changed to meet changing economic
conditions. Undoubtedly some errors
will be found in the classification OF

forests cannot contain much land

MELLON is RIGHT

It is to be expected that Secretary
Melons plans for further tax re-
vision will come under the fire of the
partisan and demagogic sniper He
will be charged with championing tax
relief for the multi-millionaires only.
His assault on the top-lofty and highly
futile surtaxes on great incomes is
bound to bring the sneering reminder
that since Mellon himself is a very
rich man, it is natural that he should
be "class-conscious."
The secretary's proposal to slash
further the surfaces on incomes from
so to 25 per cent will bring a howl of
protest. Not much attention will be
given by the howlers to the solid facts
that bear out the secretary's conten-
tion that rational tax methods ought
to be adopted that will not only pro-
duce more revenue in the end but will
encourage movable capital to move
toward productive enterprises where
it is needed to quicken the blood in
our financial and industrial arteries
and give work to men who neeI it.
It is the habit and accustomed way
OF politics in this country to ignore
the hard fact that we do not like. 1t
is that way with the rock-ribbed facts
that Secretary Mellon has put IN the
hands of Congress. The troublesome
part about it is that Secretary Mellon
is right, solidly and unshakably right.

FRIENDLY TO THE CONSTITUTION

FRIENDLY TO THE CONSTITUTION
The United States Supreme Court is
showing itself friendly to the Constitu-
tion. The court recently expressed
clear and sensible views on how far
pickets could go in a labor strike,
pointing out that there is some differ
ence between one picket and an entire
picket fence. Now, with Chief Justice
Taft again writing the opinion, the
court declares that legislatures cannot
stop injunctions against the wrong,
the unconstitutional, type of picketing
1t is refreshing to the soul to hear
such words as these, when there is
authority to back them: "The Con-
stitution was intended to prevent ex-
perimentation with the fundamental
rights of the Individual" The country
certainly seems to be getting back to
the Constitution, and there could be
no better guide to American conduct
than the original charter of American
government-Troy Times.
