The Leavenworth echo. [volume] (Leavenworth, Wash.) 1904-current, 1922-04-21

II appears that the state Eduea-
tional association, composed largely
of school teachers. Is carrying on a
campaign in support of the so-ealled
"30-10" measure. which. evidently
will increase taxes about % per cent
for it proposes to raise sac for each
child attending school whereas $50 Is
now the sum raised. The Echo feels
that we are now paying and spending
enough money for school purposes,
and we are opposed to any measure
which may markedly increase the
present outlay. The idea that school
revenues should be raised where
wealth is and expended where chill
dren are" will hit US all about alike,
for wealth is pretty well distributed
where the children are found, and we
of this community are not likely to
pull down more per pupil than we pay
in taxes.

THE money BELT BANK"

For seventeen years, Missoula
Mont. railway worker had been care
fully saving his money Over a per-
iod of three years, he had failed to
cash his pay checks. In addition. he
had accumulated number of Liberty
Bonds and other interest bearing in
vestments
Pay checks, bonds and currency he
tucked away in a money belt, that he
always carried with him. He was con
fident of his ability to protect his
hoard. estimated to be worth $4,000
Last night, he was attacked by two
men while at work. The thieves took
the currency but threw away the
bonds and checks. The condition of
their victim is reported to be serious.

America who persist in committing
their savings to money belts, old
socks, "secret" hiding places in the
home, cracked teapots and other
weird blanks" Periodically, fire or
theft wipes out their savings, fire.

nothing to show for years of work

Their shortsightedness is all the
more remarkable in view of the elab-
crate precautions government and
business have taken to assure safety
for their investments. Savings and
other banks, sound bonds, the postal
savings bank, good realty-there are
a thousand ways in which the indi-
vidual can put out his or her cash

PRAYER FOR LANDLORDS.

The trend Of the times are such
that perhaps the following old prayer
Of the time Of Edward VI of England
may be appropriate. The prayer is
said to have been taken from the
Kings prayer book and was included
among "Sundry Cody Prayers for
Divine Purposes" but has long since
been omitted from the liturgies. 1t
is recommended for careful and fire.
quent perusal in this day:
We heartily pray Thee to send Thy
Holy Spirit into the hearts of them
that possess the grounds and pas
lures of the earth, that they, remem-
bering themselves to be Thy tenants,
may not rack or stretch out the rents
Of their houses or lands, nor let take
unreasonable fines or moneys, after
the manner Of covetous worldlings.
but may so let them out that the in
habitants thereof may be able to paw
the rents and to live, and nourish
their families and remember the poor.
Give them grace also to consider
that they, too, are but strangers and
pilgrims in this world, having here no
dwelling place, but seeking one to
come; that they, remembering the
short continuance of this life, may be
content with that which is sufficient,
