 Broad Street School Joins
 Tho pupils of the eight grades of the Broad street school have joined the ranks of those of the high school in their campaign for a new modern high school building, These pupils are very anxious to have their parents and friends vote in favor of such q building tonight. Themes have been written during the past week in which the children them selves have expressed their opinions and desires for tho building, They feel confident that the townspeoplo
 
 ileges which are theirs as future citizens, they say. Following are some of the extracts from these themes:
 "Plainvillc needs new high school for the following reasons; Plainville pupils going to New Brit ain and Bristol high schools win many honors. While these pupils are from Plainyillc, the noighboring cities receive the credit. If Plain vile has It's own school it could re- ccive these honors. If Plainrillo wants its future citizens 10 be the right kind, it must provide the right kind of cducation.
 "Thc purpose Of education, l he lievc, is to enable the citizens of tn, future 10 understand thoroughly foi what America stands and ft us fol higher standards of living, l an trying 10 get all I can from my school and so show my appreciation 10 those who provide us with cdura ton, Win they deprive me Of hgI school privileges" ."
 "A high school should provide reasonable amount of education st those who arc ambitious but canno afford further education will be wei taken care Of. This cannot be if the class rooms are ovcrcroWdcd as n present"
 Tn order 10 become good citizen We must be educated. In order i' keep on having good country :" must educate people. If "o dld no have schools wc would soon b"com ignorant and uncivl2ed. The gov ernmont would fail and our coun'r fall to pieces. In order to hay schools we must have money Thi is the great obstacle to the nH\ school.

Pierce speak on the Needs of Il Modern High School" Mr. Pierce is at the head of all secondary education m th" state Of Connecticut and yearly visits all the high schools of the state. He said in part;
 "A community has much talent that we do not find unless we have good schools 10 develop it. Our schools should not simply prepare for q career, but for life" In the t past ten or fifteen years more prog rcss has been made in schools than in all the years before. One Of the fundamental things IS 10 teach health and q gymnasium is ntct$, sary in a high school. We do not need much equipment, except sood teacher and the boys and girls.

men elected over regular Republican
candidates as rcd-hot progressives
begin to cool under administration
blandi shments
Pressure on the irregulars here
has long been VIGOROUSLY ire
mendous. It even has its social
phases. Worst Of all handicaps to a
senator is a hack of patronage.
Imagine senator, besieRcd by con-
stitucnts for political plums, forced
to answer:
II don't stand in very well down
here. You had better sec the fellow
! beat in the election, who still has
the support of the administration. !"
Yet, that seemd for q moment the
other day to be the situation which
confronted sen.tor Nye.
Nyc and Frazier. while assured of
their patronage, have indicated no
abandonment of their irregularity.
The northwest has seen its So
called "reds" and "pinks" turn lily
white before. Cummins of Iowa,
once a rank progressive, was a star
example. He died q staunch stand
patter. So did Knute Nelson of
Minnesota. Lenroot Of Wisconsin
first came to Congress as . La Fol-
lctte progressive.
Other more progressives have been
convinced that they were actually
radicals and in seeking to tone down
to plain progressivism became con-
sevatives.

Entering the Fold

Sorator Harrison the "keynotcr" of the Demo-
cratic side Of the senate had somcs jusfiable fun
a. the EXPENSE Of the tcnuous Republican majority
over the return of Senator Lynn j. Frazier, usually
the mplacabc foe Of regularity in politics, in eco
nomcs and in all the other "ics that agitate public
men and make them often interesting as wen as
ridiculous.
Harrison chided the Republicans as being divided
in principles, but united in spoils
The return Of North Dakotas senior senator to
good standing before the pork barrel and at the pie
counter formed the text of Harrisons gibes.
Has Senator Frazier sold his political ideals for
a mess Of pottagc? the query from the Demo-
cratic side. Has he been dulled to the stern chal-
lcnge Of the embatted farmers by the urge Of pef
and plumber; by the comfortable of senatorial
courtesy. seniority and precedent which demand
only regularity in the distribution Of patronage?
He still may be allowed to sputter and blubber at
Wall Street. but he must come into caucus politically
pure in heart.
Picture our valiant and becose Lynn smuggling
to the pie counter, rubbing shoulders with the un-
holy servants of big business" Has he shed the
homespun of Nonpartisan simplicity for the purple
and fine linen Of privilege? Has he crooked the cal
louscd knee to the craven images of a false and
vicious propaganda in which Capitalism is spelled
with capital G.? Verify he to the
roll call II which little for the trials
and tribulatons of the embattled farmers; yea,
verify even the thunderings Of La Folletteism fall
upon deaf ears; a noble heart longer bleeds
for the wounds and castieations Of a dear "peepu,
but rather expands in joyful diastole as the plums
scatter into his capacous lap this yuletide. Has
Lynn forgotten the pain "n the corn belt the
farmers empty stocking?
As prophet crying in wilderness Of bourgeois
indifference and capitalistc smugness, Lynn J. Fra
zer met the test Of the pr,lctariat and the other
Of political unrest. When he lifted his stem
torian voice and cried, prepare We the way of the
peepul; make straight their PATH" the sheared and
shorn agricuturists recognized the voice of their
leader and took heart But will they still listen in
rapturous content to the new Lynn, rustling and
suave in the silks and satins Of political prefer
ment? Has the mighty fallen, has he just
broken his political hunger strike?
When and whence will rise new prophet? Upon
whose hide will Lynns hair shirt Of political right
eousness and abnegation fall? Did Lynn igurativey
kick the faithful N. p. goat from beneath his but
tocks when he donned the purple and fine linen of
glistening political regularity? Was even BALKAN,
more unkindly to his faithful mount? Did the sage
of Hoople. too, butcher in his heart the ideals of
proletariat when he went to dwell in the tents of
the wicked?
Temporal! Mores!

A Noteworthy Movement
(St. Paul Dispatch


The organization at Bismarck of North Dakota
Courcil Of Agriculture to cooperate with like or.
ganization in Minnesota and ether northwestern
states, will mean a good deal more to the people OF
that state than to others. In the officers elected
and in members Of executive committee they will
see a combination not seen in their state in ten
years-Republicans of both factions, Democrats
farmers, lawyers, bankers, merchants. These will
now sit together for the good Of the states indus
try and commerce.
Compared to that, the program is of lesser impor.
what the Dispatch has been asking for the past
five years-agricultural relief through Legislative
act that will give agriculture the same protection as
Legislation now gives other industry. To this end
the new organization not only invites, but pleads for
cooperation on the part of the business man. He is
told plainly that it is his business that is at stake
as much as the farmers and his presence is cor.
daily requested.
Compare that attitude with the first effort to- get
relief, when class was set against class, when neigh
oors of old standing were made enemies over night
and when an nternecine war that LASTED nearly ten
years was naugurated. That brought nothing but
grief and loss. The new plan will bring results
Perhaps it may not bring the hoped-for action in
washington at the short session-but it will bring
peace and unity at home and the strength of united
people.

Editorial Comment
1T Is Me"
Lancaster New Era)

Lancaster New F.ra)
After many years Ct life with the lowly and
despiscd expression Of the English language this
phrase is to be egitmatized and introduced into good
society. The College entrance board has given it
it's 0. X. Hereafter it shall not count against the
aspirant for college honors. 1T is me- is good
English in an examination that comes under the
board.
Thus youth has conquered again. One of thu
earliest mistakes the child makes is the answer to
"who is it," to which the usual reply is 1T is me-.
A reprimand and a correction follow in well-regu-
lated families. A little later that same child learns
it is good French to say "c'est moi" Again it falls
into the error of its youth. For time it is apt to
say lit is me-" Then come stern and learned teach
ers who instill horror for such phraseoogy.
Eventually that same child is heard repeating what
mother and father used to say: Don't say it is
me- say it is l."
Now, however, comes the college entrance board
and says it shall be right, matter whether it is
wrong or not. That settles it. 1T is me- is cor
rect in examination papers. Soon it will be correct
in current speech. Usage makes the rules and COM
mon usage is the court Of last appeal in the mat
ter of correct language. Very we'll There is still
hope that ut cant be did, and "he seen it" may
be correct. The elder generation will die hard
They still believe that Arnold and Stevenson and
Addison could write real English.
