Hobart E. Payne Likely to be
UnOppOsed for Circuit Clerk.

Up to the present, which is
Thursday morning, June both,
the last day of June, there seems
to be a general belief and salts
faction at the announcement of
the Hon. Hobart f. Payne for
Circuit nd Criminal Clerk of
Mcdowell county. So much so
is this true to the present that
there is no other man making APP
plication therefor. The past re-
cord of present Clerk Hobart,
when it comes to the dignitied
and accurate management as
we'll as the general conduct of
the office, no one ever hears of
any complaints. Then when it
comes to the rock bottom prin-
ciples OF Republicanism this
office boast of having always re-
presentated the principles of
real Republicanism.

mind should be developed, and if
that is done, the body isn't apt
to suffer.
The present day high school
student may be thought of as be-
ing Sophisticated, but his sophisti-
cation is so often only the re-
suit of half truths, superstition
and quaint legends ever so in
nocenty told him by his loving
parents or school teachers.
1t is a disgrace the way the
truths of life are. so lightly dealt
with in public schools. When a
child in the lower grades frankly
asks where he comes from, he
will either be ignored or given
some silly answer. Why? 1t is
doubtful whether anyone can
cite a case of a child being hurt
in any way by being told the
truth about birth, but many are
the cases of a child's life being
blighted by ignorance of the
facts of life.
Unless sterner means are
taken to combat syphilis will
continue to take its deadly toll
year after year. Are high schoo
students told the facts about
this disease which one out OF
eyed ten men have, and which
thriyeS becase of narrow-mindeC
prudery? Are they told nice
people are just as susceptible of
contracting SYPHILIS as the who're
monger? Most surely they are
not. They are given all the de-
tails about how to avoid contact
ing tuberculosis, which is a
dreadful disease, but they are
told nothing about avoiding
syphilis, which is also a dread
full disease.
~ SlIIlple course or study
clear with UNFINISHED truths,
could be offered in the low e +
grades and as the student adj
vanced, the vast, wonderful
story of life could be unfolded
to him and the simple facts
about veneral diseases could be
told to him.
Such a course of study taught
by understanding, intelligent
teachers would aid the student
materially in h rs journey
through life. It would help him
conquer fear, which is the worst
enemy Of progress.

Discussion On The Public
School System

Literature is dealt wit h all
too lightly in the public schools
today. 1t is true that a student
reads or is assigned to read
several classics such as as:
David Copperfield, Macbeth,
Ivanhoe, Silas Mariner, and ETC.,
yet rare is the student who
energies from high school with
love for literature.
Again it is usually the teach
ers who are to blame. When
English teachers show little or
no enthusiasm for great works
of literature, is it to be expect
ed that their students manifest
a love for the classics?
John Erskine said in hi
introduction to Outline of
Great Books: "No great book
was ever written to be lectured
on or explained in schools.
Every masterpiece was first
written for tn use of man.
Enough said.
Physical education is usually
overdone or poorly administrat-
ed,
With the money that is spent
for gymnasiums, football fields,
coaches and physical education
instructors, better libraries could
be built in each public school,.
Not only would much of the tax
payers money be saved, but
students would greatly benefit.
Another plan would be to clothe
and feed the multitude of stu
dents who are in need. 1t is
hardly fair to bid football
fields costing thousands of dol
lars so that twenty-five boys
can bash their heads together,
while hundreds of students come
to school i'll fed. 1t is a poor
form of Justice that sees fit to
construct huge gymnasiums so
that ten boys can run them
selves silly trying to toss a ball
through hoop while worthy
students come to school in "hand
me-downS."
The average student receives
all the exercise his body can
take care of in the leisure hours
after school, which can be testi-
ned to by any doctor.
School is the place where the
