weeks is a short time. A life time
for many pupils extends years a
head From a financial standpoint
seven weeks now mean little. These
seven weeks, if spent in school,
may mean the difference between
a successful and an unsuccessful
life. The school is here. 1t is up
to you if you are past 16 years of
age.
In the above paragraph l am as
Stunning that the boy or girl is try
ing. A boy or girl who will not
work in school should be put at
something else before he or she
becomes a habitual loafer.
The large school election vote
is another Indication that Wolf
Point patrons r much interest
ed in the schools. School board
officials are the most important of
ficials in a community. 1t is they
who adopt certain policies which
must be carried out by the teach
ers. These policies are adopted
after careful deliberation. The
man on the board has to weigh
both sides. He must consider all
angles. He must be able to vision
the future. He must be extremely
careful of the best interests of
pupils and patrons.
School problems are of all kinds.
Sometimes they are as small hills
over which you can ride; some
times they are cliffs which must
be blasted in order to be removed
and sometimes they are mountains
which have to be tunnelled.
The support of the schools is be-
coming more complicated each day.
Most of us know that taxes are
not spread right. The man with
property is tax burdened whether
OF not he has any income. In my
estimation the chief solution is an
income tax PATTERNED after khe
Wisconsin law. Each person who
has an income of $1,000 or more
helps carry the tax burden. Each
person derives benefits from the
government. therefore each person
should help pay the cost
Several students are seriously

Pipal and Ruth Geisen are among

fourth grade.
In order to relieve the over
crowded condition in our library,
the typewriters have been moved
to a room on the second floor. The
bookkeeping desks n also in this
room. As a result of this change
the pupils in Miss Nichols room
are now in the room off from the

room 1t is possible that next year
the third grade will be kept on

Little Activity
At Court House

After a week Of feverish activity
the county court house today as
sumed almost the air Of a funeral
parlor in the Garden of Eden
there was absolutely nothing doing.
With the Head murder trial con-
tinued over until Monday, other
offices in the court house seemed
to feel the general depression which
struck both departments of superior
court.
Judge A. C. Finney's court as
sumed a listless activity for a short
period during a juvenile hearing,
but again lapsed into quiet when
the matter was disposed Of.
Now and then typewriter clicked
half-heartedly III the district attor-
ney's office, and slow routine
kept the county clerk and his depu-
ties from absolute inactivity.
But it was only the lull before
the storm, for Monday the court
house again will assume the in
tense business which pervaded it
during most of this week.

KING SAYS RED CROSS WORK
VITAL FACTOR IN Ell CENTRIC

"As deeply as I am interested in
the national work of the Red
Cross said Joe e. King, district
manager of the Southern Sierras
Power company. our own local
problems form my chief interest
when considering the annual roll
call beginning Armistice Day.
Red Cross celebrates its fiftieth
anniversary this year and there GER
tainly is no need for apology for the
achievements OF the organization.
During the drought disaster in the
southern section of the middle west
last year, the Red Cross did splen-
Gid disaster relief work.
In Imperial Valley we had our
problems coming as a direct result
of the drought situation. We were
placed under a severe financial
strain in feeding and caring for the
hordes of transientS passing
through the valley in search OF
work. There was practically no
calls for relief among our own peo-
pie.
The situation this year, however.
will be different from last as many
of our own people are out of en-
ployment. The percentage of local
people in need of relief will be much
larger this year and the Red Cross

Jaycee Teams
Tangle Tonight

For the second time in two nights
Brawley and El Centro football
teams will tangle on the El Centro
high school field tonight. when iu-
nior college elevens from the rival
towns begin their scrap at $50.
Determined to avenge the defeat
handed Brawley high school last
night, the Brawley Junior College
team will send a strong lineup onto
the field against crippled FL Gen.
tro team.
Two Of Coach Finns first string
men will be unable to get into the
game tonight They are REEVES,
center, and Gutierrez, guard. El
Centro Jaycees will feel the loss Of
these two players keenly.
Little information was available
today on either team. El Centre
football FLOWERS are confident the
local gridsters will initiate the high
school team in defeating the north
enderS.

Hoover Receives
Naval Report

WASHINGTON, Nov. 7. U.P)-
President Hoover today received the
report of his committee investigat-
ing Navy League charges against
him.
The report was handed to his
secretary, Theodore G. Joslin. by
representative of the committee. 1t
was believed TO find the league
charges unwarranted.
The league objected to Mr.. Hooy-
er's naval economy plan and said
he was "abysnally ignorant" Of
naval matters.
Johns Hays Hammond, chairman
of Mr.. Hoover's committee. said all
five members signed the report last
night and made a few revisions to-
day. He said the work of the COM
mittee was completed. 1t met for
the first time Wednesday.

New Governor At
MeXicali Today

Assurance that the capital of the
northern district of Baja California
will remain in MeXicali, was given
residents Of that town when the
new governor. Agustin Olachea, ar
rived in MeXicali this morning in
company with a group of Mexican
officials.
This statement sets at rest per-
Sistent rumorS that the capital was
to be moved to Tijuana and, it is
said, will have a beneficial effect
upon business in the border town.
Carlos Trejo y Lerda de Tejada,
retiring governor, and General Abe
lardo Rodriguez, a former governor
and now undersecretary of war, are
scheduled to arrive in Mexicali to-
morrow and the transfer of the
government is expected to be made
Monday.
AS far as can be determined, no
elaborate ceremonies are planned

Death Claims
Sen. Caraway
Continued From Page II

Democrats. HIS passing was
mourned by his colleagues who paid
tribute to him as a statesman and
conscientious public servant.
Quick-witted and sharp of tongue,
Caraway seldom overlooked an op-
portunity to engage in the rough
and-tumble conflict of debate dur
ing his two terms as senator and
four terms in the house. He was
one Of the bitterest critics of the
present administration.
Caraway is perhaps remembered
here best for his sharp questioning
Of lobbyists during the senate lobby
committee investigation of 1890, and
in the fight for federal drought re-
lief. Even after Democratic leaders
had agreed to compromise with the
administration on relief, Caraway
fought to have the government
make direct loans for food to the
people of Arkansas whose crops
had been destroyed by the blight
ing heat Of the previous summer.
It is expected the governor of Ar
kansas will appoint Democrat to
succeed Caraway before congress
meets. His death and that Of
Dwight w. Morrow of New Jersey,
leaves the lineup in the senate as
follows:
Republicans, At; Democrats, 46;
Farmer-Labor, !; vacancies, 2.
Morrow's seat probably will be
filled by the governor Of New Jer-
sey before he goes out of office
January l.
Caraway was born in Stoddard
county, Missouri, Oct. II, 1871. A
graduate of Dixon College, Tennes-
see, he was admitted to the Ar
kansas bar in 1900 and began prac-
tice at Lake City.

When he was but a little child,

Smith went to Bethel Military Aca-

the inevitable skypiece of a con-

a favorable impression in old Fau-
