Elizabeth BurreIl Accused Of:
INSTRUMENTATION in De-
motion Case.

After a fifteen minute pubic ses-
sion the board of education yesterday
afternoon convened behind closed
doors and for two hours discussed the
case Of Elizabeth ID. Burrell. IL teach
or, charged with insubordinatop. Be
cause of a poor rating Miss Burreli
was recently denoted and transfer
red from the @ Street Vocational
School to the Lincoln graded school.
She subsequently appealed to the
board to reconsider its action, which
resulted in the charge of insuberdi-
nation being placed against her by
school officials.
Exhaustive reports on the case were
presented to the board in the exec
utive conference by Supt. Frank W..
Bailou and Garnet &. Wilkinson. as.
sistant superintendent in charge or
colored schools, but action was de-
-ferred until--a special meeting At
o'clock Wednesday. At that time MISS
Burrell and Leonora c. Randolph.
principal of the o street Vocational
School, will be given hearings.
Civic Center Policy.
Due to the executive session the
board did not take up the question OF
liberalizinS the policy relating to the
use Of school buildings as civic GEN.
ters. This question will he discussed
at the meetin. Wednesday, together
with the Burrcll ease.
During discussion over the
changes In personnel at the brief
public session DR.. Ballou said that
when teachers are changed from one
branch of instruction to another the
procedure is considered as an "ad-
ministrative transfer" and not an ap-
pointment. He pointed out that un-
der the law the board of examiners
has no authority to make appoint
ments unless a teacher stands highest
in competitive examination on this
subject. However, he said, 1t is often
found expedient to transfer teacheFs
to other courses providing they pass
the qualifying examination and are
we'll up on the list, even though they
are not at the head of 1t.

THE GLORIOUS FOURTH

Il was on July 4th, 1872 that the
writer participated in the first Fourth
Of July celebration Of his experience,
Il was the most uproarious demonstra-
ton Of his life. 1t was in New York
City and its suburbs, and the cannon
aiding. firing Of guns, reyolvers, and the
shooting Of firecrackers started early
in the morning, lasted intermittently all
day, until midnight. In the course Of
time the celebration has become not
only less noisy but in many respects the
entire spirit and meaning in the observ-
snce Of independence day. it appears,
is deliberately changed and perverted
from its original purpose. This is not
to be wondered at when professors at
some Of our American universities re-
fer to the declaration Of human rights
set forth in the Declaration of Ameri-
can Independence as a string of glitter
ing generalities.
While we are well rid of the noisy
tumult OF other days, it is deplorable
that the declaration Of human rights is
practically abandoned in American
public affairs. instead, as it deserves.
being more and more emphasized with
every passing day, and is tacitly emas-
culated from the observance of indie
pendence day.
In the Fourth Of July celebration Of
Llano Colony the declaration was not
Tread, because it is written in the heart
Of every colonist. This year the festiv-
tiles were made purely home affair.
Dinner and supper were served cafe
terra style in the hotel, the outdoor pic
mic having been abandoned because
iof threatening rain, which, however.
failed to materiaIize. After dinner was
ia concert by the orchestra. Later on
Comrade Lee L. Rhodes from Grand
Saline, Texas, organizer of the Farm
Labor movement, gave a grand talk on
the promising outlook for the produc-
ers' liberation from exploitation.
After supper, Doctor Thurman and
Comrade Woodland made very impress
sive speeches to the assembled colon
lists in the grove. The latter stated that
cooperation is the law Of life. Only
thru cooperation can the human race
evolve to its true estate. Co-opera-
ton. unselfishness, and loyalty to the
chosen leaders would lead to victory.
The celebration concluded with dance
at the hotel.

Ii Yuan Hung, the new president Of
China, wants democratic government
and The abolition of graft. That sounds
well. but words alone, as the lamented
Theodore Roosevelt said. are not i'm
portant. In addition to talking, Pres
ident Ii gives to public schools his en-
tire salary, $4,000 a month, to which
he adds $4,000 monthly in the way Of
perquisites and $4,000 monthly in the
way Of honest graft taken by his pre-
decessor. In all he gives $l24.000 a
month to the schools and that is more
than words-the best news from China
in long time. The regular salary Of
THE Chinese president appears to be as
much in three months as our president
gets in whole year,-Arthur Brisbane
in Shreveport Times.
When a president of China gives
$l24,000 thousand dollars a month to
schools, that is good news. and shows
that he is both intelligent and has a
conscience above the average man
holding office. And yet the time is
coming. and it may not be far off, when
all nations that ascribe themselves in
telligent will permit no one to acquire
wealth beyond that which can be OBJ
tanned thru productive labor by either
brain or muscle. Wealth accumuIat-
ed in any other way is the result of
some privilege or favor based on some
enactment or statute utterly at variance
with truth or justice. Then giving will
be unnecessary; for all will have who
are born with ability and health.
Those who are unable to produce be-
cause of physical or mental infirmities
will have the same care as a kindly fa-
Their or mother would give their ailing
children. Then giving will be unheces-
sary, and the educational wants Of
country will be taken care Of in pro-
portion to the need and the ability Of
the whole people.

AN ENJOYABLE TIME
AT THE DIXIE PRIDE

On Sunday night, July 2, the colon
lists at Newllano and their friends and
neighbors enjoyed most excellent pro-
gam, to which two visitors, Mrs. Fra
ley, daughter Of Mr.. and Mrs. Roo
ney, and Miss Valrie Brogden, contrib
uted goodly share. The orchestra, as
usual, opened the performance with a
soul-stirring selection, and little Laura
Synoground, our youthful defamation
prodigy, recited her piece with great
emphasis and understanding. A song
solo BY Ms. Fraley, accompanied on
the piano by Miss Trixie EweIl. arous-
ed appreciative emotions in everyone
present. The Llano Quartette, compos-
ed of Mrs. Gaddis. Mrs. Dougherty, Mr..
Beavers and his son William. contribu-
ted a splendidly rendered ballad. Miss
Trixie Ewell played one of her charm
ing piano solos with artistic verve and
scored a Mell-deserved triumph. BY re-
quest Mrs. Fraley responded with an
other song solo. Miss Beulah Gaddis
and Max Beavers played violin and
piano duet in superior manner. Hair
old Kemp gave mighty good recita-
ton. Everything that he does he does
just right, like all the other members
of the Kemp family. Everyone of them
is there with both feet, and delivers the
goods every time. But the Heather
Chinee. personified by Comrade jacques

ed the great American desert. And
had to go 10 work and produce what
they needed Of starve. It was Root
hog or die, and hey did root like good
fellows and made a glorious success as
colonlzers. Of course, to-day they are
no longer the simon pure co-operators
that they were seventy-five years ago,
because their leaders have become
corrupted with capitalistic notions, but
that is not the fault of cooperation but
due to departure from the principle
of equity. What has been done before
can be done again, but there is no oc-

ter the victory has been won.

The success or failure Of co-opera-
ion is a matter of the character of the
people that engage in it and Of the OPP
portunities that are available. Produc-
tive cooperation has made the most
striking demonstration here on Ameri-
can soil. The whole state Of Utah is
indebted for its foundation and won
derful growth to the cooperation of
the Mormans who settled it. When they
went there in 1916 they had no money
worth speaking of. and there was no
one they could have bought anything
