PREPARING NORMAL SCHOOLS
TWO-YEAR BUDGET

President Ames and his office force
are devoting all the time that can be
spared from the more regular admin
istrative work to the preparation of
the school budget for the next bien-
MUM There are doubtless few who re-
alize what the preparation of faith
full estimate of the schools financial
needs over a two-year period means.
For one thing it means that those
who make estimates must be familiar
with every department of the schools
activities, have more than an ordl-
nary vision of the rate of the schools
growth in the next two years, and a
clear conception of what the school
ought to become. 1t involves every
thing of a pecuniary nature, from es-
timating the number of pen-points
and sticks of crayon, and tons of coal,
and volumes of library books, and on
and on adj infinitum, to the cost OF the
new building which the school so sore
ly needs.
Much more careful estimates must
now be made than formerly. Not so
many years ago it was sufficiently
good business to lump the budget fig.
ures, leaving the matter of dividing
UP the Jumps to the president and 10
cal regent of the school. Today it is
necessary to make very detailed es-
innate of the exact amount needed
for each particular purpose. If the
budget maker underestimate the
need in any case the school suffers. If
he over-estimates any need he cannot
use the money for any other school
purpose than that for which it was
requested. Furthermore the budget
now being prepared must run the
gauntlet of all the state administrative
machinery-all the wheels within
wheels-that now has anything to say
about state school money. The ma
chinery includes the Board of Regents,
the State Board of Education, the
State Board of Public Affairs, the
governor, and the Joint Finance Com
mittee of the legislature. 1t is the
task of the president of the school and
his regent, realizing the needs of the
school as they do, to make such a
faithful budget that these various au-
thorities cannot change it without SER
iously gripping one of the states
greatest institutions.

PROFITEERING

We are told that we are facing a
coal shortage.
But the shortage of coal is not a
reason for the increase of the price
of coal. To increase the price of
coal would make it possible for
the rich to have coal, but it would
make it impossible for the poor to
purchase it.
This country needs SO many tons
of coal. The rich and the poor
alike need the coal. The shortage
of coal should not cause the price
TO be increased. An increased
price will prevent a just distribu-
ton of coal.
The only legal and just thing that
can possibly be done is to distrib-
ute the amount of coal we have
among all the people at the same
rate that they would have been
charged for the coal had there been
a sufficient quantity.
The prohteer who takes advan-
tage of the situation and raises the
price of coal is an enemy of the
people.

molested and has escaped the judg-
ments of law. But now the people
are growing weary, restless, and re-
vengeful.
The time has come for, the gov
eminent to arrest every man who
takes advantage OF an emergency
to practise extortion.
This is certainly true of the hour
in which we are now living.
The government talked about
Selling the coal mines. The gov
eminent ought to seize not only the
mines, but everything else that the
prohteer is trying to use for the
purpose of extorting from the peo-
pie an unjust and unreasonable
profit.
The profteer should not be al
lowed to do business.
Let the government say to all
prohteers: Every time you raise
the price unjustly, the government
will take from you the right and
the license to do business
This is the only way by which
the suffering public can be quoted
and put at ease. This is the way by
which the government can restore
confidence in its sovereignty, in its
power, and in its justice.

EINALLY our charming women
Il folk have bowed to the inevitable
and given the gate to the short
skirt. Soon sight of a tapered ankle
will be spoken of as something that
existed in "the good old days"
Women of course will be chided
for their weakness. They have pro-
tested that the short skirt is healthy
and comfortable, and tried to keep
it in the mode, but what are the
poor things to do when the whole
sale dressmakers just won't make
short skirts. The girls must buy
what they are offered or nothing.
And where's the harm? The change
means more cloth used, more mill
hands at work, more business in
the stores. The much derided
changing mood of our women folk
has kept the wheels of industry
moving many year.

High School Notes
From Literary Department
Theodore Roosevelt

Friday, October 27, was the sixty
fourth birthday anniversary of Pres
ident Roosevelt. He was born in New
York City. In his childhood he was
a pale, delicate led, suffering from
asthma. At the age of twenty-five
he graduated from Harvard Univer-
sity, June so, 1880. Many wonderful
things occurred during his hard, siren
uous life.
He was honest in every way and
had strong intellectual power. He
had great responsibilities, and it is
said, he had patience with slaves as
well as with kings. He was gladly
welcomed by ALL AS husband he
was wonderful and his children loved
him dearly. He was a very happy
person, always smiling and laughing.
He liked jokes and always had time
for pleasure. He did not feel insult
ed when others poked fun at him.
Theodore Roosevelt was a presi-
dent, public speaker and writer.
He took great interest in everything
he did. When called Upon to be an
athlete, horseman, archer or explorer,
he was always ready to go forward
with willing heart. As a "Presi-
dent ne was loved by everyone. He
used good judgment in dealing with
his people. In speaking he used clear,
simple language. A little child could
easily understand every thing Roose-
welt said. AS writer he gave us
history, biography and travel books.
oosevelt was a person well prepared
for everything in life.
His patriotism was always shown
by doinp things for the welfare of
his nation. He was in the cavalry
known as 'sThe Rough Riders" where
they won many hard battle. He
was willing to shed blood for his
country if necessary. All his children
were brought up as "True Patriots. y
His son, Quentin, was killed during
the World War. Roosevelt's deter
mination to go with a prepared army
across to the fighting lines during the
World War, proves to use that he was
a patriot"
He died at the age of 81. His
death took place at Sagamore Hill, y
January 6, 1919.
