Good old st. Valentine has again
made his yearly rounds through the
building leaving in his wake bright
red hearts, fancy paper lace, flow
ers and cupids to make the children
happy. All rooms had beautiful val
entine boxes deliberately decorated
by the children and walls attract
lively bordered with valentine dolls,
ships and other motifs.
Lincoln's birthday passed with
stories and discussions of Abe as a
good, honest backwoods boy and

his memorable life and deeds.

weather the attendance is daily in

to our savings account in the bank
for various school projects and for
replenishing playground equipment

school board has been generous, but
we feel we cannot ask it for every
thing. The picture will be of type
well suited to children and we're
hoping for a large attendance.

Elements in Planets

It was predicted no longer than a
century ago that the chemical COM
position of the stars and planets
would never be discovered. But when
three branches of science, chemis-
try, astronomy and physics, joined
forces part of the mystery was clear
ed up, according to Pathfinder
Magazine. So far 60 of the ele-
ments of the earth (there are 90
earth elements known have been
discovered as being present in the
composition of the heavenly bodies.

before it was discovered on earth.

Passing the Buck

The most tragic thing to me about
the human race is that the most of
its suffering and hardship is un-
necessary. Most of it could be pre-
vented if man would do the things
that he knows are right and not
persist in doing the things that he
knows are wrong. This has always
been true. AS far back as we have
any record of the human race We
can read the, record, if anything all
the clearer after the lapse of thous-
ands of years. Five hundred, two
thousand years ago when man did
the thing that was right he prosper
ed and lived in peace and content,
but when greed and sin and wrong
crept into his conduct he suffered.
Not only individuals, but nations as
we'll have paid the price of wrong
doing. To me most of the economic

We do not believe that any
scheme is sound that lifts from the
shoulders the responsibility of
man for his own future well being.
Any plan that encourages a man to
do less than his best is going to
work to the detriment of the race.
The human mind is so designed that
it can't work out any other way.
Take away responsibility and you
have removed the stay, the sheet
anchor that holds most men in line.

Now is the time for the civic beau
LITIGATION club to begin to lay plans
for it's program for the coming year.
One of the most valuable functions
such club performs in the COM
munity is to make the residents of
the community beauty conscious. A
modest home owner may not be able
to add lot of new trees and shrubs
or other improvements to his place
but he can, with no expense, keep
his place looking well by keeping the
lawn moved. The instilling into the
minds of home owners "city BEAU
tifup' consciousness will do more
to prompt a home owner to keep his
place looking well than any other
one thing. This is the principal val
ue of the local Identification club.
