Directs His Remarks To "DcQr SOuthender"

Editor Herald.
 Dear Southender:--
 Life is process in which reason. good nature and human practice constitutes the basic rule. When we are unreasonable or destructive or cruel we are not regarding the rule, we are not playing the game.
 The first step towards an under standing of school problems is the recognition of facts that there are unsightly, unsanitary institutions known as portable schools. We live at time when the city is waiting. Once the city vas settled in it's ha b. it's Of administering social differ enCes.
 The declarations by our school board that they would not have to build any more schools for a num- Der of years when they were aski lg for the new high school. merits the criticism bestowed upon them for the embarrassing position they put the people Of the city. IL briu ss about a biz squabble and the people and the children will be in just as bad a condition as ever.
 Dear Southender:
 Your gass attack don't build schools. don't eliminate the unsightly unsanitary institutions known as portable schools which I believe we roth agree should be eradicated from the historical pages of our city as soon as possible. The fifth "ar'j voters are proud of their indepen- dence at the ballot box. They are not controlled by J. Henry Rora- back machine or any other machine. You seem 10 be disturbed by the way the fifth ward upsets the old andpatters' apple-cart.
 We cannot afford to step aside as we wish 10 furnish good fremcn. good policemen. and independent voters for the future generations ds well as the present.
