EDUCATIONAL ADVANCEMENT

EDUCATIONAL facilities in the rural sections
OF the country have undergone great change for
the better in the last decade through the building
of consolidated schools TO replace one-room
schools at the rate of thousand year. Advance
ment in American life has brought this about
automobiles and hard roads being powerful fact
ors in causing the establishment of consolidated
Oh centralized schools.
The Bureau of Education reports that results
attained in consolidated schools are more than
satisfactory as higher medan scores of scholars
are considerably higher than in one-room schools.
With these larger places OF learning Johnny does
not master his readin', 'ritin and 'rthmetic thru
the patient instruction of one teacher who is in
charge of all the scholars and the entire curricu-
lum His three RS now learned from three
distinct instructors which is as it should be- This
is move in the right direction, as it affords the
country boys and girls the same privileges as en-
]oyed by their urban brothers and sisters.
The proper education of children is one of the
biggest things in American life and that fact is
recognized by ALL To send a boy or girl out into
the world not equipped at least with the rudiments
OF education is crime against humanity as those
young folks deprived of their inherent right will
be butfeted about and virtually lost from the fin
er things in life.
The cost in dollars and cents may be trfle
greater, but the returns which are sure to follow
are well worth it, Posterity will read the records
OF the present generation as applying to educat-
lonal privileges and marvel at the foresight shown
Better school facilities for the rural child of to-
day? Why certainly.

DO YOU SMOKE CIGARETTES?

80 JUDGING from advertising put out by cigar
cite manufacturers, both in newspapers and mag
azines, not to mention the billboard, fag is a
wonderful thing. One brand is supposed to 'sat-
lsfy;" in another, there is not cough in car
load" while another popular brand advertises
that man would walk mile for one In order to
attract the trade of women smokers one of the
brands urges women to smoke it's product Ito re-
tain their slim figure" The gullible 'fall' for it.
OF course. At any rate cigarette smoking is on the
increase both in the United States and in Great
Britain, but the last named uses the most per
capita as evidenced by the report Of the consump+n
ION OF the little paper Seegars.
In great Britain the annual per capita consum-
ptlon is approximately fourteen hundred fifty,
while in the United States it is slightly more than
half OF that, or about eight hundred. This means
the surprising total of seventy-three million in
Great Britain, and ninety-five million in the u
nited States.
Lots of people smoke cigarettes with no appar-
ent harm, but on the other hand, do they do per-
son any particular good? If grown man flips
open his case and lights fag, all we'll and good,
but when it comes to young boys and girls, or
women, following suit the fathers of the form
er and the husbands of the latter at times put
their foot down emphatically, and mean it, Men

whom they deny the privilege And more power

THE STYLES

WOMEN'S theory of dress today is riddle to
many. Inc dress Is easy enough TO see through
Jur 1t is hard to understand. 1t is big bundle of
gross inconsister ces 1t is both high and low &C.
onomical and costly. In many instances the wearer
spends most OF ner time in trying to make the
dress reach points is was not made to reach, and
cover territory that the wearer doesn't want COW
cred. With many the purpose of these peculiar
manlpulations is to- retain the reputation of mod
esty without being handicapped with the reality.
In the language of Uncle Remus: Among all
one ANIMALS. womn is the curiosest
1t is we'll to remember that serious problems OF
civilization are involved in style. The problems OF
all civilization has been to control and regulate
the TWO great primitive forces-hunger and sex
attraction. The ten commandments deal with the
control OF those two forces almost exclusively Civ
llzations have risen or fallen as they have sue
ceeded or failed in the control of these forces.
Nothing else mas been more effective in the
wholesome control of sex attraction than modesty.
The biological function Of modesty is the protect
ion of virtue and there is civilization without
virtue 1t has taken many, many centuries to build
up this great fortress around virtue.
Any style or custom that tends to destroy mod
esty is an attack on virtues chief defense.
The change of styles may be harmless it may
be fraught with the greatest dangers to Christian
civilization.

RESPECT FOR LAW

1T goes without saying, that in civilized COM
munity there should be respect for law. That is
an abstract proposition with which no right
minded person will disagree
But, it is beginning to dawn upon great many
people that there is corresponding obligation
resting upon those who make our laws. 1t is the
corolary that in order to be respected law should
be of such a character as to command respect
through it's manifest reasonableness and Justice.
This point is forcbly made by a Michigan news
paper which comments on the sentence of two
persons one man and one woman, to life imprison-
!nent in that state for violating the prohibition
law for the fourth time.
Granting that habitual disregard OF the prohi-
oition law is deserving of drastic punishment, few
will contend that life Imprisonment is justified
Michigan victims were convicted Of AS the news.

LOAFERS IN COLLEGE

THE growing idea that large percentage of
young men now in college would be better off
elsewhere was emphasized by no less author
ity than Charles E. Hughes, former secretary Of
state, in recent address at Brown University,
from which he graduated in 1881.
3 He roundy criticized the many modern college
activities which have nothing to do with educat-
ion and which attract the mental loafers whose
only ambition is to get by and obtain diploma.
Referrin gto such student Mr.. Hughes said:
Il should take him out at once and tell him to
make his own way. Those who are not disposed
to make good use of their college years would be
better off elsewhere"
Neither Mr.. Hughes any other sensible per-
son would disparage the value of college educat-
Ion, but the fact is that our colleges are encunl-
bered with many students who have neither the
capacity, the energy the ambition to profit

They might as well engage at once in soda-j jerk
ing or in whatever simple tasks their mentality
happens to fit.

team nosed out Clintwood High
16 to Is, to win the girls bask-
etball championship of Dicken-
son County, in a game played
at the Mcclure community
building Tuesday Eevening.
The final score does not tell
the whole story of how bitterly
the contest was fought out
from the very beginning to the
final whistle. Seldom did more
than two points separate the
two sextets. At the end of the
regular playing time the score
was ID to IA, and an extra per.
iod was required to decide the
winner. The superior pass work
of the Clintwood aggregation
finally yielded to the shooting
of Hamilton and Gilbert, the
Haysi forwards, who located
the baskets with murderous &C.
curacy, whenever the opportun.
ity to score presented itself.

THE TEST OF A MAN

THE place to take the true measure of man
is not in the FORUM or in the field, not in the mar
ket place nor in the Amen corner, but at his own
fire-side. There he lays aside mask and you may
judge whether he is imp angel king or cur,
hero or humbug. [ care not what the world says
of him; whether it crowns him with bay or pelts
him with bad eggs l care never copper what
his reputation or religion may be; if his babies
dread his home coming and his better half has
to swallow her Heart every time she has to ask
1or a five dollar bill, he's fraud Of the first
water, even though he prays night and morn till
he's black in the face, and bowls hallelujah till
he shakes the eternal hills. But if his children
rush to the front gate to greet him, and loves
own sunshine Eliminates the face of his wife
when she hears his football you may take it for
granted that he is true gold for his homes a
heaven and the humbug never gets that near the
great white throne of God can forgive much in
that fellow mortal who would rather make men
wear than women weep; who would rather have
the hate of the whole he-world than the contempt
of his wife; who would rather call anger to the
eyes of a king than fear to the face of child

LOS ANGELES, Feb. 6, (P)-, Twice Tommy Loughran had his right hand raised in token of vic tory over Armand Emanuel and twice the San Francisco boxer looked for a defeat from the hands If Armand, the first time being last June.
 Loughran took the decision over the protest of many who thought Emanuel had outpointed the champ last night. Referee Roth rendered the verdict in favor of Loughran at the end of 10 gruelling rounds but more than half of the 10000 fans apparently saw it the other way to judge from the reception given.
 The upset came in the 7th by hard left hook to the button and Tommy was also on the short end in the 9th but he staged a furious finish the remaining two-rounds which could not be denied.

 The two new Senate amend nIents of approval are expected to pass without going into con- ference and then the measure goes to President Coolidge for his sig nature.
 The program involves an appro- priation of $274,OO0. GOO. President Coolidge has expressed doubts as to the governments ability to meet this tremendous outlay and is said to be much displeased at the refusal of Congress- to listen to his plea for control over the Naval program.

D0WACER QUEEN
 IF SPAIN, MARIA
 CHRISTINA, DIES
DONAGER QUEEN LIVED, VIR- TUALLY, IN RETIREMENT
 THROUGHOUT LIFE

MADRID, Spain, Feb, 6, (P- Maria Christina, Queen Mother of Spain, died early this morning after a brief illness.
 A series of political events in her country, Austria, which caus- ed certain responsibilities and in- ternational duties, caused Maria Christina, Queen Dowager of Spain, to come out of life of secluSion upon which she entered and even tually resulted in her marriage to King Alfonso XII of Spain.
 It was said her intention was to take the full VOWS of a nun, when international and political events intervened and made 1t incumbent upon her to leave the convent. She met King Alfonso while he was on a trip to Austria after the death of his first Queen, Mercedes of Bourbon, who died without issue, and they were mar ried November 29, 1879.
 Upon the death of her husband, Maria Christina assumed the re- gency of Spain and ruled the country until May 1902, when her son reached the legal age at which he ascended the trone.e '
 The Dowager Queen was born at Gross -SeeloWitz, Austria, July T, 1858, the daughter of Arch duke Charles Ferdinand and Arch duchess Elizabeth Francisco Maria. Her father was a first cousin of the late Emperor Francis Joseph.
 Since her son Alfonso XIII, as cended the throne she had lived virtually in retirement, except for interest taken in charitable and religious institutions. She al- so superintended much of the ed ucation of her grandchildren The Dowager Queen always was noted for the plainness and sim plicity of her life, although on state occasions she insisted on maintaining the strict Austrian court etiquette in which she was reared.
