The finance COMMITTEES chairman
told the senate the time had come for
congress to show that It vas not at
tempting to play politics with the
American soldier that Il was acting
in good faith when IT passed the
first bonus Just before the elections

Referring to the position taken by
President Harding and Secretary Mel

asked the senate TO defer action on
the bonus bill because OF the then
financial condition OF the treasury.
Senator McCumber requested that
they now view the legislation "in the
light of present day conditions"
These changed conditions certainly
must appeal TO the judgment for a
revision OF the views of a year ago.
he said, adding that the government
could meet every dollar this bili will
call for without an additional tax, levy
and without in the slightest degree af-

Senator McCumber argued that the
funds necessary for the financing OF
the bonus legislation could be obtained

In this connection he declared that
to his mind there had been an unnec-
essary delay in funding the foreign
obligations. adding that there should
be a settlement with the principal
debtors. Great Britain. France and
Italy. by next January 1.
As to the cost or the legislation Mr..

TEACHERS GROUP MEETING

The activity of the public school
work in and around the adjoining dis
tricts of Roxana was plainly manifest
ed by the interest shown at a group
meeting held at Roxana Public
School Building Tuesday, December
18th. The session began promptly at
two o'clock and continued in a very
enthusiastic manner until almost
dark.
The demonstration work was par
ticularly interesting. Mrs. Lloyd Nc
Cabe gave a very thrilling demonstra-
ton of fire grade reading recitation.
Miss Blanche People, (rural superyis-
orr also gave a very interesting dem
onstration, teaching class Of fifth
and sixth grade pupils the real mean
ing of a Norseland myth. Both demon
strations were highly appreciated by
the twenty observing teachers. The
aim, procedure and assignment meth
DDS were very clearly and forcibly
brought out in each. This was follow
ed by a lively discussion of silent
reading, led by Miss People, Mrs.
Belts and Mrs. Carey, also the Palmer
Method of Writing was discussed but
owing to the creeping shadows OF ev-
ening stealing stealthily down upon
mother earth to reclaim and embOsom
their own, the meeting was compelled
to adjourn. Each teacher left with
goodly supply of materials and sup
plies for the balance of the school
year.
