China regarding indemnity for Rus
sian losses and future administra-
ton of the railway.
Soviet officials reiterated their
claims that Chinese and White
Guardist henchmen had initiated the
hostilities obliging the Red army
to undertake punitive pursuit.
Despite denials of reports that
the Manchurian government, center.
ed at Mukden, would undertake in
dependent peace negotiations with
Russia, well informed foreign cir
cles were believed today that for
NAL negotiations betwene the Muk-
den and Soviet governments likely
would be begun in the near future.
1t was believed Germany would act
as intermediary for these prelimin-
ary negotiations because German
necessarily would speak for etthe
Chinese Nationalist government ar
Marking whereas Mukden desires
to negotiate without the Marking
governments direct participation.
1t was said that the present Soviet
punitive expedition into Manchuria
probably delayed negotiations be-
cause the Manchurians besitated to
begin discussions at present when
the outwardly were under military
pressure of the Soviets.
Some observers pointed out that
the Mukden government was in SER
ious financial straits and at present
is unable to afford adequate pay
for large forces on the eastern and
western borders where the Soviet
troops have pentrated. These asser-
tions were strengthened by reports
that the Soviet troops had captured
many Chinese soldiers who surrend-
cred quickly because they had not
been paid in some instances and be.
cause they were unaccustomcd to
winter fighting.

County Schools
Up To Standard

That the county schools are well
up with the average standard for
rural school achievement is indieat-
ed by the results obtained from n
general survey of pupil achievement
in these schools, the testing having
been recently completed by the
office of the county superintendent.
The survey was made for the fol-
lowing reasons: TO compare the
schools with other schools in the
country; to determine the particular
subjects III which the individual pu-
pill was weak; to give the child, the
teacher and the parents, scientific
measure of pupil accomplishment; to
stimulate renewed effort on the part
of the child and the teacher and to
make possible a scientific remedial
program to insure the maximum
achievement of every child; and II
serve as an administrative aid in
that it measures the teachers eff
cheney.
Final analysis of the data has
not been made, but indications point
to an average standard. H. c. Coe,
county superintendent, states that
with the program completed this
early and with the improved teach
ing force of this year, prospects for
a high standard of work are prom
Using.
Th, testing work was done under
the direction of Mrs. Lura X. Tyler
and Miss Josephine Douglas, super
visCls of the. rural schools.

FL CENTRIC WILL
JOIN NATION in
USUAL HOLIDAY

Tomorrow, following custom of
many years standing, Americans the
world over will rest from the cares
cf business and everyday humdrum
life to enjoy real holiday, one
marked by feasting and general
good fellowship.
This holiday, set aside every year
by Presidential proclamation, had
its origin in the piety of our fore
fathers who wrested this vast EN-
pire from the wilderness against the
cruelty of savages and the hard
ships of pioneer conditions. Hav-
ing crossed the ocean in safety to
seek a new land where religious
worship might be untrammeled by
the dictates of kings or parliaments,
these Pilgrim fathers decided to
render thanks to God for their safe
delivery from the perils of the deep
ty day of Thanksgiving and
prayer.
Following their example, in fact
if not entirely in spirit, succeeding
generations of Americans have OBJ
served theis day as holiday. The
wheels of industry stop; business
houses close their doors; and the en-
tire country, official as well as pri-
vate. gives itself over to day of
festivity and thanks.
El Centre will take part in this
general spirit of joyousness tomor-
row. All federal, county and city
offices will be closed. School chill
dren will enjoy well earned hoh-
day. Many persons are planning a
week end visit to friends in vari-
Gus parts of the state and many Ell
Centrans will be hosts to out of
town guests for the big turkey din
ner, without which Thanksgiving
day would be just another number
on the calendar.
The big feature on the program
for tomorrow's celebration will be
the homecoming football game be-
tween the Central Union gridders
and their rivals from CalexieO. In
the evening, dances and other forms
of jollification are scheduled here
and in neighboring towns.
The Press will not publish on
Thanksgiving day.
