NEW SCHOOL BUILDING
MUST BE BUILT SOON
Much Discussion on Shortage of
Room for Grade Pupils. Rem
edy Needed at Once

1T is becoming more apparent with
each day Of school in our city system
that additional room must be secured
in some manner. We learn from the
school teachers and authorities that
rooms are overcrowded, classes are
by far too large, and the general con:
gestiOn not at all conducive to the
health Of the children. Despite the
erection of the Junior High School;
the enrolment Of school children in
the grades has so increased that even
these extra rooms are filled to the
last seat.
Tentative plans have been secured
for a new building to be located on
the grounds where the Lincoln build
ing stands This new building would
be fully modern and accommodate some
$50 pupils. The erection of this build
ing which is badly needed will sup
ply all the room necessary during this
year and leave several rooms for fur
Their expansion. "

EXPECTED DISCHARGE

During the Christmas holidays, six

large number Of the employees of the
Great Northern Railway in this divi-
sion were laid off, presumably dis
charged. Many employees expressed
the concern they felt that this consti-
tuted a virtual discharge and that On
~ certain number Of them would be
re-engaged to work. Some also un-
derstood >that seniority rights were
lost. Much uneasiness was apparent
among the employees.
We were all pleased to note that
on Dec. 20 all the employees were
back at work without any change in
their working conditions whatever.

Washington, d. C.-That Debs need
not look for larger world to conquer,
is the comment made by the Repub-
lican Publicity Association in state
men issued through its president, Hon
Jonathan Bourne, Jr., after quoting
Debs' assertion that he is an enemy
Of the capitalist class and "in me
they shall find no comfort as long as
there is breath nmy body!" Says the
Republican Publicity Association:
"Now let us see who these people
are against whom Debs has sworn
eternal war;
"a capitalist is one who has capital
who makes his living by the aid OF
capital. Capital as defined by the
dictionary, and as generally under
stood in ordinary usage, Is 'proptrty
owned by an individual or corporation
as distinct from income or AN ag-
gregation Of goods used to promote
the production of other goods ms
stead of being valuable solely for the
purpose of immediate enjoyment
LET us look at capitalists from ex-
IRENE viewpoints. According to his
own story, Henry Ford toured the re-
tail markets in company with his wife
seventeen years ago trying to find a
turkey cheap enough so they could af-
ford to buy 1t for their Thanksgiving
dinner. Mr.. Ford then had no capital,
He was mechonic, saved some OF his
wages, invested THY small capital
made that capital give employment o
other men who did not save, and last
year he is reported to have paid gov
eminent income tax Of $76,000,000. Mr..
Ford is one o fthe capitalists against
whom Mr.. Debs has declared war as
long as there shall be breath in his
body. Mr.. Debs declares war upon
the methods and the system under
which Ford built up his huge auto
mobile establishment

SOCK NOT CONTAINER.

The Circuit Court Of Petersburg, Va.
has handed down a ruling that will
have a far-reaching effect on prohibit
ton enforcement in Virginia, if it is
upheld by the higher courts. The de-
cision was to the effect that citizen
has the right to have one quart Of real
honest-to goodness liquor in his per
sonal baggage, the prohibition laws to
the contrary notwithstanding.
However, this ruling did not help
the dependant in tn cease in which it
was handed down. He was arrested
while carrying a bottle Of whisky
wrapped up in sock. The court held
that the sock was not personal bag
gage and so found him guilty of
breaking the law.

The immediate aim of the conven-
ton is to secure the services of the
organized Bible classes in fuller en-
listment of all Southern Baptist forces
according to Harry L. Strickland, sec
rotary of the Organized Class Depart
ment of the Baptist Sunday school
Board, who is promoting it. An effort
will b made to enlist at least 100000
Southern Baptists in the task of win
ming at least one other soul to Christ
during 1922, and to secure the coop
Grafton of the remaining 100000
Southern Bapists in some other defin
tie form Of Christian service in their
local churches.
Another result of the convention is
expected to be the conduct of South
wide Baptist survey next fall in which
an effort will be made to reach the
thousands of unchurched or unidenti-
fled Baptists of every community in
the South and discover the evangel-
istic opportunities confronting Bap-
fists among the unsaved.
Every phase of the work of the or
