20 help the best he could. It is
even said that he told them that
nobody could force them to work

reason he was fired.

Our school in Plentywood is
probably as good as most other
schools. But, our school system is
ali wrong. We are not living in
an arisbOcratic community, altho
a few pinheads might feel that
way. We are living in cOmmun-
itv of working people of which
most of us are poor, and the aim
of our school should be to give our
children a practical education and
understanding of how to make a
useful living.
Instead of doing that, our schools
are holding up as idols, exploiters
like Henry Ford. Rockefeller and
Morgan, leaving it in the minds
of the children that being an ex-
ploiter is the highest aim there is.
That in order to be considered
smart and be respected, they
should grow up to be a banker,
or something in that line, where
they have chance to soak it into
the other fellOw-getting a rake
off of some kind regardless of the
misery dealt to your fellowmen.
The war heroes are more idols
held up before our children and
their praise sung early and late.
Being a warrior and a great gen
eral is impressed on their mind

every penny given out. Although
the money was supposed to be
handed out freely, in most cases
it almost had to be taken by
force.
Now comes the Commercial club
and makes the demand that this
relief must be paid back in the
form of work. The Commercial
club has no right to make this de-
mand, neither has the Central
committee, nor the county com
mlssloners, nor the keymen. If the
people want to do some work for
relief received, it is purely gift
TO the county or city wherever
the work is done. The county
didn't dig up this relief, neither
did the city, NOR do they ever have
to pay it back.
At the beginning of this relief
the farmers made the demand that
it should be handed out in cash.
but that demand was turned down
flat. The reason for this was told
by Jack Bennett when he said, the
relief was mot for the farmers and
workers only, but was intended for
the storekeepers as well. Had we
received cash we could have picked
up bargains and could have bought
goods where we could get it the
cheapest. In that way we could
have saved at least 20 per cent.
Now this 20 per cent or more, had
to go to our local merchants as
their profit, as their part of the
relief.
Now comes these merchants and
makes the demand that we pay
back IN the form of work dollar
for dollar whatever our relief Or
ders called for. Not only are we
supposed to pay back the 80 cents
that We did get but we are also
supposed to pay back the 20 cents
that the merchants got, in the
form of profit as his part of the
relief. We are to work while they
are playing golf. We are to fix
the roads and streets so they will
be nice and smooth for them to
travel on.
1t is said that the J. C. Penney
store has filled relief orders to
the amount of $1,000, others say
$4,000, but let US use the lowest
figure, the $11, 900. Twenty per
cent of that amount is $4,000, they
have received as their part of the
relief, and cash relief at that. In
stead of laying down the rules for
us to go by, why don't the Penney
store and the rest of the stores
come out and show us the way?
Whenever the Penney store has
put in it's 400 hours of gravel
hauling, and the rest of the stores
done their part in the same pro-
portion, it will be no trouble get
ting the rest of US to do our little
bit.
Working for absolutely nothing
like some people are doing at
present time, is not very appealing
to anybody, by many it is looked
upon as a disgrace, a kind of a
chain gang proposition, where a
few paid bell wethers are taking
the lead.
Improving the streets and roads
is a good thing, but it should not
be made chain gang proposition,
where the slaves were wearing out
their clothing and shoes with moth
ing to show for it except some
gravel in mud hole.
Some arrangements could easily
be made by which the people work
ing off their relief, could be al
lowed good wages, half of which
could go on old relief and the other
half paid in cash. There is no
reason in the world why such ar
engagements could not be made, if
the people themselves insisted on
it, instead of letting themselves be
ordered about by few golf play
ing merchants.

Wind Down to Ils1 Miles Per Hour and Tempera-

The wind, which was blowing and whistling and clustering at 31 miles an hour yesterday, had 'caTmed down today to a mild 15 miles per hour. The temperature had in creased from IS degrees to 26 de- grees at noon today. And the weather today that ordinarily would have been considered, disagreeable for October, seemed pleasant by contrast. What is a little snow after the cold and wind of the last three days? M < v
 In Ketchikan, where the tenn perature was g yesterday, it is raining. In Sitka it is warm enough to rain, according to R. c. Mize, Weather Bureau Meteorologist. And there is a pretty good chance of Juneau having warm wet weather to replace today's snow within a couple of days.
