For School Opening
LinWOOd Board of Education
to Have Meeting at the
School Tonight.

Final plans for the school year
will be made tonight, when the
Board of Education meets in the
school house ON Bellhaven avenue.
Members of the Board hope the
school will open Monday morning,
following the delay which has been
necessary because OF the addition
which is now being completed.
All schools along the Shore road
section are now in session with the
exception of the Linwood school.

There is some little doubt eX-

possibility of the school opening,
because of work being done on the
new addition, which prevents chill

Great Metropolis Has
Seen MANY Reuerses

London existed as town before
the Romans licked 1t into shape
behind the great wall that still can
be traced, II tradition may be ac-
cepted The Thames was uncon-
fined and spread slugglshly among
the reeds; the tide came up, fore
ing 1t to form backwaters and
inundating the wide tracts of
marshes. A thousand years after
the Romans left. the hOu es
matched with reeds, still were
overlooked by woods and thlckets
Inhabited by deer and wild bears
and the swamps were alive with
bittern and duck. All the time Lon
Goa was growing. but on no se.t.Td
klan. The process OF deyelopEAlls
was continually Interrupted, yet
after each check 1t went on again.
Boadicea destroyed it; the Danes
wiped 1t out; Alfred the Great re
built 1t and within a century it was
burned to the ground. Thereafter,
fire and pestilence swept over 1t at
frequent intervals, but 1t emerged
stronger from every trial. London
refused to be removed from the
map, and its persistence was Wis
ible expression of the determine
tiOn OF Its people and vindication
OF its position as a world mart

Rain and the Moon

Near the equator the position of
the young moon never makes an
angle of more than 30 degrees with
the horizon, and 1t is generally in
an even more nearly horizontal pO-
sitiOn, so that in a part of the
world notorious for regions of
heavy rainfall, the moon is, ac-
cording to the proverb, always a
dry" one. The final absnrdity of
the idea that changes In the moon
denote rain is the case of the
crescent moon as seen from the
North and South poles, where 1t Is
always what the proverb describes
as wet" for at these places the
line joining the tips of the crescent
always makes an angle of less than
% degrees to the vertical yet the
polar regions are characterized by
so little precipitation in the form
of rain and snow that they rank
among the arid regions of the
globe.

Wild Holds Its Owr

The persistence Of the wild life
close TO the haurts of man and
his works is more than remarkable.
When man first intruded into the
wilderness places wild animals
were his easy prey. They did not
know anything about him and>prob-
ably looked upon him only as some
fellow animal who had come to
share their lot. They were dislllu-
stoned fast enough and they
learned quick lessons from disillu-
sionment.
Today wild animals know how to
care for themselves For years
their ranl rapidly decreased, but
when man believed that the van
ishing point almost had been
reached there were seen signs Of
increase. All the animals had be-
come foxy"

"Mother of States"

This name Is applied to Virginia
because so many states have been
carved from her original territory.
At the time of the settlement OF
Jamestown the name Virginia was
applied to al that part of North
America lying between lie thirty
fourth and forty-fifth degrees of
latitude, extending from coast to
coast. This region now comprises
the create part OF the United
States. When Sir Frances Drake
circumnavigated the, globe he
stopped on the coast of California

ANSWERS CALI.
Peter Lappier of 18th Mime.
sofa Volunteers Passes Away
at 81 Years Of Age

Peter Lappien aged veteran of the
Civil War. died last evening" ut Z
o'clock at local hospital, old age
and general decline being given as the
causes of death. Mr.. Happier was
brought to the hospital yesterday and
died few hours later. He was 81
years ard Z months of age, and was
born in Quincy, ILL.,, in 1885.
The eleventh regiment Of the Min
resota volunteer infantry, Company
+, claimed Mr.. Lappicr as member.
He was one OF eight members Of the
regiment in attendance at the last
annual convention Of the regiment
held in Minneapolis. He served
through the entire Civil war and saw
action in many famous battles.
For many years Mr.. Lappior has
made his home in Mckenzie with his
daughter, Mrs. W. G. Belk. and with
his other children, moving. from one
to, another. He is survived by sis
children, Lyman. and Albert Lappiel
Of Yakima, WASH; Mrs. Rose Shafel
Of Henry, ). D.; Mrs. Maud Stevcrs Of

Pomeroy o. Garden City, KAN, and
Mrs. W.. G., Belk OF Mckenzie. He also
leaves Is grandchildren, - great
grandchildren and seven grcat-grcat
grandchildren.

deal modified, but they generally get
through in substance.
A committee can also pigeon hole
propositions it doesn't like. and when
that happens. it is extremely difficult
TO drag them out into the light again.
Then there's prestige. A Republic
an administration doesn't like to
have a senateful Of Democratic COM
mittoss.
And senateful OF Democratic
committees can seriously gum the
program Of Republican administra-
ton.
Some Obligations
Even an insurgent feels under
some slight obligations to his
party label. Usually he thinks
he has discharged them By voting
for his party committees. Up to that
point, unless his feelings are too vio-
iently outraged by selections he dis.
approves Of, he's regular. This APP
plies to both Republicans and Demo
Gratis.
But Senator Shipstead has abso-
lutely no strings on him. He has
complete freedom Of choice between
the two big party committees
What's more. it seems pretty certain
that he will have the casting vote
between them.
So the next Senate, in all probabil'
ity, will be organized by Henri
Sh Instead Of Minnesota.

accented the treaty; but he did so at
the cost of military leadership. 1t
was as though he had actually signed

better or for worse
Mr.. Byrne rightly points out that in
connection with the negotiations greet
care had been taken that the inter
eats Of the government shou.' be
amply sufrguardcds lit was represent
ed by the most efficient group Of men
10 BE- found in the country for such
task. whereas the Indian stood
alone. his own exclusive treaty am
baysador, without expert counsel or
advice" All the more heinous, there
fore. was the crime Of the white man
in violating such treaty. II IS in
teresting in this regard to read Cen
eneral Sherman's report: III the
lands Of the white man are taken.
Civilization justifies him in resist
ing the invader. Civilization does
more than this it brands him as .
coward and . slave IL he submits to
the wrong. Here Civilization made
its own compact and guaranteed the
| rights Of the weaker party. 1t did
not stand by the guarantee. The
treaty was broken. but not by the
savage. II the savage resists, Civiii-
zation, with the Ten Commandments
in the one hand and the sword In the
other, demands immediate extermina'
tion."
All this we have quoted ut some
length although it is from the earlier
part Of the book. Mr.. ,Byrne deals
! chiefly, Of course, with the actual
campaigns Of Generals Crook. Terry,
/! Custer. Gibbon and Major Reno. But
I a clear understanding Of the treaty
| negot iations is SO necessary to any
appreciation of the Indian wars as
whole that we have stressed the au-
thor's excellent handling ct this I'm,
portant predatory section. The actual
military campaigns are wildly and
convincingly told. Witness the
description: 1.-THE hush Of night. the
change from bright moonlight to mel
ancholy darkness, the sober contcm-
plation of the approaching battle, the
suppressed vaices Of the men. the
crunching Of the snow beneath the
horses feet as they changed their
foot ng--all combined to produce a
situation strange and discomforting.
It was "A setting for tragedy--a death.
chamber scene Of magnificent proper
tions. The earth, cold and placid
robed in spotless white; the stars
like elimmering candles set in the sky
and the silent procession Of death
ready to go forward with the approach
Of day" In this way Mr.. Byrnt
describes the Battle of the Washita.
Not the least interesting part OF the
work is formed by the excellent ac'
counts Of the great Indian chiefs who
become quite real to the reader as thu
volume progresses. On books such y:
these is founded the true history Of
) the United States.
