THE U. S. supreme court decision in
validating 0regon's law requiring
children to attend the public schools, ex-
clusively, comes at an opportune time.
1t will save the paroehal and the pri-
vate non-sectarian educational institutions
and will, indirectly perhaps, affect the
attempts of several states to control pub
lie school teaching, as in the Tennessee
case. In effect, the decision says that
parents sre free to send their children TO
whatever school they please 1t is free
dom that will appear precious to parents
who have their own opinions as to what
shall or shall not be taught their children.
That all children should attend school is
matter of national concern. The ques-
ton of where and what to be taught is an
open one.
The present decision is particularly
happy in its denial of amy general power
of the state to standardize its children"
Attempts to standardize brains, by edu-
cational institutions high or low, are al
ready quite curse to the rising genera
ton.

He hated cant and buncombe. He hated
solemn pretense and empty oratory. There
was more than simple fun behind his most
famous wittieism. He had been listening
for many months TO dreary speeches in
which a succession of self-elected saviors
undertook 10 tell what the country needed.
Then it was, in irony, that he remarked
What this country needs today is a good
five-cent cigar"
He was honest with himself and with
others. He required others TO be honest
with him. There was the time when n
strike threatened in the stone quarries of
Indiana. Governor Marshall was appealed
to for troops TO protect strike-breakers
from Chicago. "If you can find stone work
ers to take the place of the strikers at the
wages you offer" he replied, II will pro-
tect them. You will not find stone work
ers in Chicago. II you bring in thugs from
that city TO beat up Indiana stone work
ers, I'll send the troops you ask for-to
protect the stone workers" The wage
difficulty was adjusted without the use
of strike-breakers.

The Farm, Dollar

A GR1CULTURE is the basic industry
"A of this country and therefore il is
interesting to learn what experts say as
to where the dollar produced on the
farm, goes.
Hundreds of farm homes were included
in the census recently taken, from which
n general estimate was made II appears
that food, rent and fuel are practically
the only items directly provided wholly
or in part by the farms. Twenty-six
cents of each dollar spent by the farm
family goes to the clothier, dry goods
man, shoe dealer and milliner Another
% cents is divided between the grocer
and the butcher, while auto up-keep, coal
and other running expense cut out an
other slice of % cents.
A dime of each dollar spent by the
farm family goes into school expense,
reading matter, vacation trips lodge and
church support. The doctor, dentist and
druggist together get 7 cents out of the
dollar, while 4 cents go for household
goods, sewing, laundry supplies and can
ming equipment. Health and fire insur-
ance account for another cents, and the
other 4 cents go for tobacco, candy and
haircuts
1t will be observed from these figures.
that generous slice of the farm dollar is
spent in town. The towns are as depend
ent on the farms for prosperity MS the
farms are dependent on the towns. The
two together are good reason why there
should be perfect harmony between town
and farm.

Thomas Marshall

LIE CALLED himself an old-fashioned

old-fashioned American. for, while he
believed quite firmly in the democratic
party and its principles, he believed even
more firmly in democracy and its broader
principles. The humblest and the proud

An earnest student of life, in all its
phases. and with positive opinions of his
own, he would have fought to defend your

the hannah spirit and mind was the most
