Introduction Of higher radiator,
bringing new and improved body lines
to all types of Ford Cars, is announc-
ed by the Ford Motor Company in a
circular issued on August 9th.
The changes have just gone into
effect and the various types are now
in production.
While the larger radiator has been
made standard on all types and while
it has made possible other better
ments in body design, there is no rad
ical departure in construction, but
rather a general improvement which
has resulted in more graceful lines.
The new radiator sets an inch and
half higher than the former and has
an apron at the bottom which joins a
similar apron effect of the fender on
either side, giving highly finished
appearance to the front of the car.
The larger radiator also increases
cooling efficiency.
Most conspicuous among the new
types is the Ford Coupe which is of
entirely new body design and con-
struction, resulting in a more trim
exterior appearance, more comforta-
Bile seating arrangement and a great
er luggage carrying capacity.
From the dash their is a graceful
sweep in the cowl to the radiator,
bringing pleasing effect to the front.
The doors are wide and open forward
making access and exit easy. They are
heavily framed for rigidity and for
strength. The compartment at the
rear has been enlarged to afford in
creased carrying capacity. The gas
oline tank is under the seat with di
yided cushions to afford easy filling
of the tank from the right side max
ing it unnecessary for the driver to
leave his seat Ventilator in the cowl
and visor over the windshield add

Is this law building up and improv-
ing society IN eufe fgfrals Communities?
FROM my point Of vieWs.it is doing just
the opposite Il ~ lis stRRring down sOci-
ETY., Slowly depopulating the country
districts, depreciating the value of
real estate breaking down our church
es and other rural organizations.
The present law is condemned in
many places and by thinking men and
women as not being thorough in much
Of the fundamentals of an education.
Evidence can be found in many ways.
The Ohio State Journal in an editori-
al last Thanksgiving time called at
tentiOn to the fact that 1900 or 2400
pupils at 0. s.. U. were conditioned
short in some part of their work.
Three or four hundred were required
to remain at home, not being able to
do the work. The Journal in explana-
tion said that this condition resulted
from lack of thoroughness in high
school work
At the present time / am not going
to suggest the remedy. / think the leg
islature can provide means for these
schools if it really knows conditions
as they exist.
If the environment cannot be chang
ed to accommodate the law, change
the law to meet the environment.
P. S.-Mr Editor, / see one of the
correspondents in one of the county
papers profounds a few questions to
be answered by the candidates for
county school board, which l think is
highly right and proper.
1st-Do you favor district supervis-
ion?
do not, but I should be pleased to
have the county superintendent have
more first hand knowledge of the
schools and then more authority in
the selection Of teachers.
2nd-Do you favor McGuffey's read
ers?
/ do.
3rd-Do you favor hiring teachers
for what they know, rather than where
they have been?
l do.

THE PRESENT SCHOOL LAW
Mr.. Editor:

Mr.. Editor:
The nomination of members for the
county school board, brings our edu-
cation system up for so1fe consid-
Grafton by those who are it's patrons.
AS one of the candidates for the
county board, / am anxious that my
position upon certain features and
provisions of the law should be known.
The law with proper ENVIRONMENT
would be workable so far as prOvid-
ing OPPORTUNITY for the education
Of our children. DEPRESSING briefly,
would say that | was in Delaware
county, Ohio, in January, 1919, some
six or eight miles west of the county
seat. Early in the morning | was out
looking about over the almost level
country. Along came a large motor
bus, and on making some inquiry my
friend told me it was carrying the pu
pills to the centralized school of that
township which he pointed out to me,
some two or three miles from us;
both grade and high school combined,
all, both grade and high school pu-
pills, being carried to the school. He
said he thought some of the nearer
ones to the school walked and some
others on the extreme outskirts walk
ed in to meet the bus.
Those conditions seemed to me to
be almost ideal; all to the same
school, with same teachers, same
equipment, all upon one equality. ALL
HOME AT NIGHT. The township cen
tralized school building / speak of
had been built and been in use for
some time The entire machinery OF the
law had been installed promptly and
Morgan County Democrat. (McConnelsville, Ohio) 1886-1943, 1923-10-04
was working smoothly.

W0p WOihAuS SiuOObuly.
Now, why has. that not been done
down here in Morgan and similarly
situated counties? It has now been 8
years, If / am correct, since this law
came into effect. Let me suggest what
seems to be ABSOLUTELY NECES-
SARY for the successful operation of
this law. 1T is A SYSTEM OF GOOD
ROADS. This school system ii has
proved satisfactory where roads were
in condition SO it could operate.
Now what is the condition of Nor
gan county in regard to roads? Lam
guage fails a man when he attempts
to describe our roads from a GOOD
ROADS standpoint. We are mud-bound
from three to five months of the
school year. Transportation such as
is contemplated in this law is abso-
lutely impossible in most parts of the
county.
How far along are WE in operating
this system as those framing the law
planned for it to be operated? Nine
years ago we had the old Sub-Dist.
system. Many sections of the state
were prepared for change similar to
our present law. We were not prepar-
ed for so drastic a change as we got.
The law that we have, took hold
and attempted to close one-half or
more of our Sub-Dist. schools and
transport the scholars from the clos
ed to those still open in an effort to
centralize to that extent At the close
of NINE years almost all of the schools
closed are again open, virtual con-
fession that transportation is i'm
possible.
We have a few township high
schools located to the best advantage
possible in these mud road townships; !;
the best that can be done under the
present law. But you have the mimi
mum of everything that goes to make
high school except the pupils. They
are just as good as the pupils of any
average school and should have an
equal opportunity.
A two mile limit for a high school
pupil down in our dirt road sections
is as much as four mile limit in
hard surfaced road counties such as
this law was written for. And no law
should be considered whose provis-
ions would require IL and 13
year old high school pupils to be ta-
ken away from home to hoard in or
der to attend high school.
Measured by these standards / do
not think that more than one-half of
the rural pupils Of this county have
high school privileges.
Summing up what has been said
above, this law has failed and will
fail for anywhere from % to so years
to furnish school opportunities to
parts of our county.

Rupture Shield
Expert Here
Meinhardi, Well Known In This
Speciality, Called to GAINESVILLE


E. j. Meinhardi, the well known
expert from Chicago, will personally
be at the Royce Hutel, GAINESVILLE,
Ohio, on Tuesday and Wednesday
only, Oct. 9Th and 10th.
Mr.. Meinhardi says "The Vacuum
Rapture Shield" will not only hold
the rupture perfectly, but will con-
tract the opening in ten days on the
average case-usualIy giving instan-
taneOus relief withStanding all
strain regardless of the size and To-
cation Of the ruptureMa This instru-
ment is highly indorsed for pro-
ducing results in the United States
and foreign countries without the
use of surgery, medical treatment,
prescriptions or injections.
Caution: Ruptured persons should
beware of old-style trusses with un-
derstrapS. These truSses usually
place the pad On the lump and not
on the rupture opening. This often
causes serious trouble resulting in
strangulation and necessitating a
surgical operation. Mr.. Meinhardi
will be glad to demonstrate free to
all who call at the hotel from 10 a.
m. to p. M, the unusually rapid
results produced by "The Vacuum
Shield The largest and most diff

pU 1oIS' AFRICAN JAcK-o-LAN-
TERN.

The mirage which Du Bots is chas-
ing in Africa has proved of great
detriment to the actualities of the
u. S. A.
In 1921, instead of working for
the betterment of conditions here, w.
E. B. Du Bots was "gallivanting'
over the country from the Atlantic
to the Pacific talking Pan-Africa
when he should have been using his
talents to aid degraded America.
President Harding had agreed to
see the representatives of the N. A.
A. C. P. but instead of preparing the
proper data and getting to the Presl-
dent at one dilly-dallied so long that
Motion and his Southern white allies
reached the President first and the
Harding policy was prepared along
the lines sponsored by Motion ct al.
The curse which the President
promulgated against the colored peo-
pie in his famous Birmingham speech
was largel ycaused by the Motion in
terview, which Du Bots had not re-
pudiated because he was too busy
preaching Pan-Africa and forgetting
America.
Du Bots now acknowledges that
"Pan-Africa" is a dream. And so it
is. But lynching, disfranchisement,
segregation and a thousand and one
other evils are not dreams. They are
terrible realities.
Du Bots should cut out his wild
dreams and use his time and talent
in fighting the awful things that be.
