One of the most serious questions
before US right now is our school
question. So far most of our
school districts have been able to
float along on registered warrants
and promises but this cannot go
on forever. Many of our districts
are facing a situation where their
next term will only be a short one
or probably no term at all.
If you keep track of what is
going on in the nation you will
find that money by the millions
and billions is going to be spent
for reconstruction this and recon-
struction that Millions spent on
tree planting at time of the year
when a tree would not grow if
you did plant it. Big sums spent
on peace conferences while at the
same time hundreds of millA9.~
are to be spent on the building OF
more battleships.
While all this money is going
to be thrown away, for useless and
even detrimental purposes Tor the
sake of doing some experimenting
like 50 many other things oul
school system ha run on the rocks
and stranded, and not one wore
has been said about it. Of the
billions of dollars going to b.
spent on saving railroads, banks
insurance companies, and almos
everything else under the sun il
which capital is interested, not ONT
extra penny has been set aside fo
the sake of saving our schools.
In Chicago the city owes thei
teachers % million dollars in sal
aries for the last two or three
years, and nobody but the teach
ers have worried about it. Whel
the teachers could stand it n
longer they demonstrated by tn
thousands, they fought with tn
police and throwed bricks thru tn
: windows of the banks. They wer
: after their pay and there was n
fooling about it.
I And they got their pay, or q
least they got half of it. They &c
just eonugh to- keep them quie
just enough to keep them frol
demonstrating some more. Ha,
they demonstrated some more the
would undoubtedly gotten it al

ARE We GOING TO HAVE
SCHOOLS?

and had these teachers demon
strated two years ago the city of
Chicago would never have gotten
into a position where it owed it's
teachers 28 million dollars. Some
way would have been found by
which the school could have been
kept open and the teachers paid.
Bricks thru their windows seems
to be the only argument the Chi
cago bankers had any respect for.
The situation in Sheridan coun-
ty is not as bad as in Chicago but
it is bad enough. Many of our
teachers have been paid in regis
tered warrants which they are I'M
able to dispose of without almost
giving them away. We have been
told that one teacher in one of
our nearby little towns took one
$3.50 warrant to a Plentywood
store and all she could get for it
was rs worth of clothes. Deduct
the profit made on the clothes and
then figure out how much she ac-
tually got for her $3.50.
We are informed that Miss
Elizabeth Ireland, our State Sup
erintendent of Schools, has re-
Gently made survey of the school
situation in Sheridan and Daniel;
counties. Making one survey aftel
another without getting any result
has always been an administra
tion's long suit. Results are wha
people want.
That millions by the hundred
are going to be spent on NOR,
battleships, and such foOlishnes
as planting trees in the middle o.
the summer, while our schools ar
neglected, is something the peopl
simply are not going to stand fol
Some means must be provided b,
which our schools will be able t
! run the full term.
1t is up to the county, state an
National administration to see tina
} sufficient funds will be availabl
for school purposes, but nothin
so far has been done and nothin

SHERIDAN co. BOYS
LEAVE FOR FOREST
(BY HANS RASMUSSEN

During last Monday bows be-
tween the ages of Is and rs from
ul1IIerent parts of the county
gathered at Plentywood and were
looked over by local doctors.
Early Tuesday morning Is Of
mem left for Wolf Point where
tney will be subjected to another
physical examination and meet
with other boys from the north
east part of the state. From there
they are going to leave for the
forests somewhere in the western
palt OF the state and spend what
some of them think is going TO he
a SIX months vacation and nicnic
with pay. '
From what letters we have re-
celVed 1t seems like they are hav-
ing a hard time Inject ng the
proper militant spirit into some of
these young men. In one camp
In Wyoming 100 of them deserted
i'm one day and the other 100 were
ready to desert the next day. The
complaints given were bad food,
and sleeping somewhere in the
mountains 5000 feet above sea
level with only one blanket to
cover them.
Other letters tell about how
they are leaving camps in Wiscon-
sin and Michigan by the dozens
| every day. One man died for lack
OF care. One place they beat UP
an officer before they left.
1t is one of Roosevelt's maybe
itll-work-maybe-it won't programs
"A program leading to nowhere.
THESE boys will be able to eat
for the next six months, then they
ylll be sent home just as poor as
when they left. The work they
have done is of practically nc
benefit to anybody. A lot of gooc
material has been wasted ON the
building of camps, and every tree
planted during the summer will
die.
Getting a military spirit in.
iected into these young men is
what these camps are for more
than anything else. Getting al
army ready who will be willing t.
fight fol. the country that they
don't own a foot of, and do i
