the raising of money by private subscription to
carry on the school work. AS to the latter course,
it is highly Objectionable because the burden
usually falls few willing ones rather than all
the people. The democratic way to meet such
emergencies is to close the schools or else raise
the necessary funds through the channels of taxa
ton. Evidently something will have to be done
by the next Florida legislature in remedying
condition that affects vitality the future welfare of
the state. The case of Highlands county is not
one whit different from many other countieS and
before the spring months are here it would not
be surprising to be told that other sections are in
the same bad fix.

The real resraint comes from

irreconcilables, men like Brande

If Harding should determine to
take some reasonable and mod

quite possible that the die-hard

No Debts Cancellation
1t is not an unreasonable guess
that if Europe makes it clear that
she wants America to lead her
out of the swamp and is willing
to adopt the measures America
proposes and to accept American
help in the form in which Amer
lea may take he affirmative step.
If the step is guarded, as it will
be, any opposition TO it on the
part of the irreconcilable sena-
tors probably wouldn't get very
far.
1t should be added that what
ever America does about Europe
will not include any cancellation
of Europe's debts to America.
That would be unwise, because
the economic stability of the
world is peculiarly involved in
recognizing internationaf obliga-
tions. not in cancelling hem. If
the western nations want Russia
to acknowledge her obligations,
it would be illogical to provide
her with an example to the con-
trary.
Moreover, America S cancclla-

Delightful F0olery
Marks April Fools
The Society Circus

THE week closed with April
Fools Day. And most appro-
priately for the week itself was
devoted to pranks and frolics that
savored somewhat OF foolery.
There was a society circus at
Fort Myer on Friday afternoon
and evening-of considerable hi.

their club house on G street dedl-
Gated to the sacred customs Of the
day.
But then the Penguins aren't
"society'-perish the thought!
don't know whether they or So
cicty would most deeply resent
such n suggestion. on the other
hand, they're rather exclusive.
More so than the White House,
which perhaps isn't saying much.
The circus was a great success.
Everyone went. The boxes fairly
sparkled with glittering uniforms
and beautiful gowns-worn. 1t
must be confessed, under fur
wraps. for the. riding hall at Fort
Myer, where the circus was given,
is a bit chilly these early spring
days. The event had been billed
as circus extraordinary, with
promises of thrills galore. Hints
of what might be expected had
filled the air for weeks, and every.
one went determined to have the
time of their lives. And they did.
From the opening event to the
closing number. the melodramatic
hanging OF a horse thief to the
rafters OF the riding hall. the party
was entirely successful.
The proceeds from the party are
to go to the post athletic fund to
help furnish baseball outfits for
the enlisted men and polo equip
ment for the officers.

member my telling some time ago

Square" a story which she had
published In the March "Delinea-
tor"-and the hero of that story
is Senator Lloyd CARROLL!
Fortunately this unconscious ap-
preparation of names by this
clever writer has rather pleased
the rightful owners. Indeed, DR..
Carroll has gone so far as to give
full permission to Mrs. Reyes to
use his rame any time she plcases.
New England being full of Mobiles
and David a popular New England
name, Mrs. Reyes feels that II
was not strange that she should
find real David Noble. but il
does seem odd that she should
have the same experience a second
time, and with a name so uncon.
mon as Lloyd Carroll.
