"Eiu. | reckon I'd better hit the Pei
oncilio trail. Mebbe I can find Danny"
81 reckon you had. Nels," replied
Stillwell. "But don't take more'n a
couple of days. We can't do much on
the roundup without you. I'm short
of boys"
That ended the conversation. Still

his team, and the cowboys went out
to fetch their strayed horses. Made

she saw that Florence knew II.
Things happen. Miss, Hammond"
she said. soherly. almost sadly.
Madeline thought. And then straight
way Florence began brightly to hum a
tune and to busy herself repacking
what was left of the lunch. Madeline
suddenly conceived strong liking and
respect for this Western girl.
Soon they were once more bowling
along the road down gradual 10
cline. and then they began to climb a
long ridge that had for hours hidden
what lay beyond. That climb was
rather tiresome. owing to the sun and
the dust and the restricted view.
Presently, at the top OF the steep
ascent, Stlllwell got out and walked,
leading the team. During this long
climb fatigue claimed Madeline, and
she drow silly closed her eyes, to find
when she opened them again that the
glaring white sky had changed to a
steel-blue. The sun had sunk behind
the foothills and the air was growing
chilly. Stillwell had returned to the
driving-seat and was chuckling TO the
horses. Shadows crept up out OF the
hollows.
"Wal, Flo," said Stillwell. Il reckon
we'd better hev the rest OF thet there
lunch before dark"
"You didn't leave much Of it,"
laughed Florence, as she produced the
basket from under the seat.
While they ate, the short twilight
shaded and gloom filled the hOllows.
Madeline was glad to have the robes
close around her and to lean against
Florence. There were drowster spells
I'm which she lost n feeling Of where
she was, and these were disturbed by
the JOLT Of wheels over a rough place.
Then came blank interval, short or
long, which ended in a more violent
lurch Of the blackboard. Madeline
awoke to find her head on Florence's
shoulder. She sat up Laughing and
apologIzing for her laziness. Florence
assured her they would soon reach the
ranch.

fire that awakened Madeline next
morning and the first thing she saw
was huge stone fireplace in which lay
a bundle of blazing sticks. Some one
had kindled a fire while she slept. For
a moment the curious sensation OF he

Madeline was charmed with the old
Spanish house, and the more she saw
OF II the more she thought what a de-
nghefui home It could be made. All
the doors opened into Il courtyard. or

house was low. In the shape of rect

Madeline wondered II IL had been a

way out on a porch and waved hand

At first Madeline could not tell what

Mr.. Phillips stated that there
are three factors essential to the
bringing up Of our children to be
the right kind Of men and
women, namely: the home, the
school and the church. The most
important of the three in that
work, he said, is the home; and
he went on praising the good
homes, then the church and last
the school. Here incidentally he
drifted in on the question of
salaries and said, you must pay
your teachers enough salary"
II we do not, they are apt 10 join
the labor union, and he would be
ashamed Of teacher belonging
TO that organization | agreed
with him when he then stated
that teacher and a preacher
can not do their work perfectly
if they are TO work under the
pressure of economical insult

the question: How can the
homes do their part of the work

GENTLY, if the father and mother
must struggle and worry almost

both ends meet2 How can the
nome be what it should for the
children under such conditions?
Il can not. In conclusion he
Iaid: Il understand you are to
Nd to your school building; that
S n problem for you to solve"
For the sake Of the home let us
solve that problem right. Let us
tell those who want us TO acquire
more school room and pay more
taxes that we are not going to
do so for a while and then back
it up with our vote. In matters
Of this kind we should keep our
selves posted as to the facts and
not allow ourselves to be mis-
guided by rumors.

Opinions OF OTHERS"

The American has been asked
by a number of readers to main
tain a column each week where,
in farmers and others may ex-
press their opinions on matters
of public interest. Our columns
have always been open TO the dis
cussion of public matters by
readers and we have at all times
been glad to extend this priv
ilege to those who will not mis-.
use it and it has rarely ever
been misused but perhaps by
placing these articles under a
head like Opinions of Others"
or the like, il stands as weekly
invitation fer contributions, and
it will therefore at least be given
a good trial.
A newspaper is primarily
established for disseminating
news and information but it is
not fulfilling its mission unless
it also gives comment and edi-
torial and invites the discussion
Of current topics by the general
public, The American is striv-
ing in this direction for better
understanding of public ques-
tions by its readers and gladly
invites the public to participate
in that work. We all learn from
exchange of viewpoints
1t will perhaps be well to
make a few recommendations at
this time, Make your contribu-
tions brief and to the point--of
course long enough to be well
understood: write neatly and on
one side of the paper only;
adhere to the facts and do not
become personal: and remember
that the publishers of news
paper in which a malicious ar
ticle appears that does not state
the truth, are equally liable with
the author of such an article, so
be sure to save the editors hide
as we have troubles enough of
our own. Let the articles be for
public enlightenment and uplift.
Do not always expect that your
article will be published in the
first issue after writing as we
may have too many to make
room for yours. Now let them
come.

Editors Note-Fearing that
we might be misunderstood as
badly again as in our last article
we will make no reply to this
only state that where there are
from 20 to Is pupils attending
school from one section of land
as compared to 5 or less, as is
the case on the prairies where
there might be only one or two
families on a whole section of
land, the tax is naturally going
to be higher per acre inasmuch
as the school tax is more than
so per cent of our total tax. AL
so remember that here the chill
dren are driven in school vans.
Hence our reference to compar-
ing communities similarly stu
ated. We believe it is part of
a newspapers mission to en-
tighten the public if it can do
SO and for that reason added a
little to Mr.. Hermansen's re-
marks about the heavy penalty
on delinquent taxes, thinking
only that we were strengthening
his remarks.
AS for Mr.. Vogel we have new
er met him personally, but be-
lieve he is a farmer situated
much like the two Askov farm
ers referred to, with much the
same hopes and desires. AL
though we do not always agree
with him, as for instance some
of the remarks in his article
which appears this week, we be-
lieve he is well able to answer
for himself and can do so if he
desires.

Farming is a business and re-

Now how is he going to become

What we want Mr.. Wallace is
government, less flashy adver-

little more wool in "all wool

cloth in the seams of common

change in our banking laws and
