How The Republican and EXTRA

next week is mystery to Scoop, for
he is going to take vacation with
the army for two weeks, and wear all
the brass buttons, trimmings, and
paraphernalia saved up for the last
six years. Details will follow at some
future date. Unless Archibaldson, the
pressman, and Lizzie fish, the Office
girl, take the responsibility, next
weeks issue will be sad affair.
Scoop has been unable to get any
"dirt" on the remaining two public
officials who have not appeared in
print, and the Col. has not been able
to get them in characteristic poses.
So, postponement is in order until
more time is available. Evidently the
Col. has not been able to do any ex-
posing, with Messrs. A. G. Ross,
clerk, and w. R. Offutt, city attorney.

perfectly. Under test last Wednesday

1872 was anything but a triumphal march of cur
all-conquering forces, that party politics made
that and had much to do with making the
Civil war, that the Mexican war was little more

WHY SHOULDN'T HISTORY TELL
THE TRUTH

A Swedish educational commission warns
the world against school histories that sacrifice
accuracy to so-called patriotism, and that are
too "nationalistic"
That is wise and timely warning. The
world has had too much mischief from school
histories that create false ideas, chiefly jingo-
istic, that distort the truth and that allow the
rest of the world little virtue and little courage
No nation has had monopoly of this false
teaching. No nation has been free from it.
And it isn't going to be an easy task to get true
histories introduced either for hundred-per-cent-
ers everywhere will rise violently against them.
There has been very modest effort in this
country since the war to abolish the old national
istic type of history, but every time even the
slightest hint is made that there were two sides

 States Army Leader

Washington. Nov. 13.-(UP)- Motors and machines never will re- place men on foot and horseback in the fighting of battles. according to Maj. Gen. Herbert B. Crosby, chief of cavalry, whose annual report to Secretary of War Davis was made public today.
 Crosby's report reveals tremendous strides in mechanization and motori- zation of cavalry units. All regular army cavalry units have been re- organized and with new organization and equipment. Crosby estimates that the new cavalry regiment has twice the fire power of the old regiment.
 But as regards mechanization, Crosby reported. it is believed that the horse soldier, like the foot-sol- dier, cannot be replaced by any ma chine as yet developed nor is it an- ticipated that any such machine will be developed. So long as there are marshes to cross. rivers to swim. woods to pass through or climb, cavalrymen and infantrymen will be
