Que no Sc asuste el lector hablo
tan solo de Ia guerra economical, que
es bienhechora para la hunaanidad.
Alemania, vencida, desar1nada, cast
aplastada, ha cambiado de terreno de
lucha = sigue batallando por su hege
monfa. 81 no en- el mundo, por 10 me-
nos en- Europa.
Esta es la impression que he sacado
70 de la vista que acabo de hacer a
la Feria de Leipzig. Desesperada-
mente, los aleInapes Sc esfuerzan por
reconquistar su situaci6n de antes de
la gran catastr0fe sus armas ahora
no son nj fusiles, nj cafiones, nj gases
asfixiantes, sino mercancias sts a.
metralladoras Y Ianzabombas son re-
por herramientas que tie
men un alcance muchO mayor que los
famosos '.Berthas'' Forzosamente,
estan transformando, segdn las pala-
bras del profeta, las espadas en- ara
dos.
Y hay que reconocer que Sc adap-
tan marayillosamente a esta 1fueya
lucha. La famosa Casa Krupp, que
constituye uno de los mas iinportan-
ties expositores de la Feria, ha dado
ell mejor ejemplo Sus enormes talle-
res de Essen siguen trabajando febril-
mente;; pero va no producer caiones,
corazas submarines, sino exclusiva-
mente artfculos de utilidad pacffica !:
maQuinas para tejer, imprimir, escri-
bir, lavar, aparatos electricos, Tote-

Hos, cucharas, caceroIas. vajflla de MI
auel ' de cobre. Mientras antes de la
guerra, y sobre todo durante la que
rra, un ejercito de obrefos trabajaba
para la muerte, Sc ocupa ahora en-
mejorar la vida, y las mujeres, que
maldecfan a Krupp, hoy Sc sirven
muy contentas de sus prOductos..
Es asombrosa la fuerza de produc-
ci6n de esta Casa: trabaja no sola-
mente para Alemania, sino para Ia
exportaci6n al mundo entero; su nc

Audrain Hospital
Holds Open House
Hospital Day

Do you know that the average sick
person today spends less than one
third as much time in the hospital as
did his father? This interesting in
formation has come to light in con-
nection with the arrangement of the
program for National Hospital Day
by hospital executives, who in glanc-
ing through old hospital statistics
discovered that in 1894 the average
stay in a hospital was nearly forty
days; thirty-nine days and twelve
hours, to be exact. Today the aver
age length Of stay is thirteen days,
one hour and t~wenty-six minutes,
| These figures show in a cratic way
just how much the hospitals have
improved in the service they render
the community. Those who visit our
hospitals on National Hospital Day
will learn many other interesting
facts in connection with the present
day hospital service.
Audrain Hospital will be open or
Hospital Day which is May ~, but
Amanda Hospital will probably be
closed for extensive repairs and ad'
ditions.

COUNTY SCHOOL
SALARIES ARE
BEING ADVANCED

There were eighty-three country
school teachers in Audrain county
during the school year just closed,
with an average salary Of 500 q
month. The highest salary paid was
$135 a month and the lowest was
$500.
This is the record of County Sup
~erintendent Ed C. Offutt, and he is
highly gratifed to see the school dis
tricts show such a willingness to OBJ
tain the best teachers possible for
their schools.
There wer an average of 152 days
schooling this year and next year is
expected to reach an average Of 161
days, Two new teachers will be add
ed to the present list Of 83 and it is
expected the average salary will be
about $500 per month higher. It is
known that one country teacher will
receive $4,000 per month next year
and many other districts r. making
needed advancements.
Miss Mollie James, who has been
teaching the last three years at Cant,
will teach at Prairie Lea next year
at a salary Of $115 per month. She
will attend school at Kirksville this
summer. Other announcements viii
be made as soon as plans are com.
pleted.
Teaching is one Of the poorest
paid and most important profes.
sions,. says Mr.. ofutt, @And it il
gratifying to see the several districts
making gradual increases in their
salary list. For it is my desire tx
see the country schools Of Audrair
County at the highest point Of Of
iciency and this cannot be had unless
a higher salary standard is reach.

STUNNED WITH
NEWS DEFEATE

WASHINGTON, May 4-The de-
feat Of Sen. Harry S. New by former
Sen. Albert J.. Beverage in the In
diana Republican senatorial primaries
has created something Of a political
sensation in Washington in spite Of
the fact that the election of Bever-
idge as the primary candidate did not
surprise, just as there would
have been no surprise had New been
the victor. It is considered a repu-
diction of the Harding administra-
ton.
Washington politicians had been in
clined to believe that New had the
better of it among the Republican
voters, but acknowledged that they
were unable to meet predictions.

THE SENATORIAL RACE.

IN Randolph County a 'Iong For
Senator" club is being organized.
The head of this body is n Of the
most prominent farmers in the coun-
ty and president Of the Farm Bureau
there. The report that Reed will
carry that county in the primary is
being strongly denied by those OPP
posed to the present Senator and a
d~isinterested spectator tells us Mob
erly win go for Reed but that the
county will poll so many votes for
Long that he will win Randolph.
The largest part of the newspapers
in the state, country and city publ
cations, are against Reed. And in
some sections the editors, r~everting
to the old style personal journalism,
have entered into heated arguments.
The Armstrong Herald queries If
Reed is poor who is paying for the
Million circulars being sent out OF
st. Louis pushing his candidacy by a
certain editor there, who is paying
for the plates of his Moberly address
which are expensive and have been
offered every paper in thestate and
who is financing other costly CAM
paign material and propaganda?
There are those who r querying
why if Dave Francis was called a
traitor tothe party because ne OPP
posed Bryan why should Reed be
such a faithful Democrat in view OF
his attitude to Wilson and aid to the
''..enemy" when the president most
needed his support?
The Joplin convention was a crit
erion of Missouri Democratic senti-
ment as regards Reed and we believe
it will be expressed even more for
chilly at the Democratic primary IL
August. We do not believe Mr.
Reed meets the requiremnts of thu
majority of Missouri Democrats.
