Ell CENTRO SUFFERS HARD
BLOW IN SCHOOL LOSS

Ell Centro i'll can afford a loss such as
the destruction of the Wilson school build
ing at any time, but more especially at
a time when it well-nigh is impossible to
rebuild it under material and manpoWer
priorities But while all citizens are de-
ploring the loss and wondering how to
help in arranging for class quarters,
there is universal rejoicing that the build
ing was not filled with pupils. On this
note the people of Ell Centre will get be-
hind the officials and the teachers in
solving the vexing problem now con-
fronting them.
No matter what arrangements are
available, whether the use of other build
ings will be the solution or merging the

BLOOMINGTON, Ind, Sept. 4.
UJP)-Kenneth Lindsay, member
of the British parliament and for
mer parliamentary secretary Tor
the British board of education, be-
lieves that the American system OF
free public education will be used
as a model in England.
Lindsay, after a tWo-day confer
ence with President Herman B.
Wells of Indiana University, said
that the U. S. system might be the
basis for the British in remaking
their educational system under the
new charter of education bill
enacted by parliament.
"The United States and Great
Britain have many educational
problems in common" Lindsay said
"These problems include education
and training Of returning war vet
Grams, the future of liberal central
and local governmental arts educa-
ton. the conflicts between control,
iuse in peacctime of the military
! education methods, the lessons
j learned from military camp schools,
and the proposed international Of

He called the common under
standing between the two countries
in matters of ecucation "the surest
basis for common understanding in
other matters
IN the field of education there
are and can be among our two peo-
piles no conflicts, no jealousies, nc

BEAUTIFUL WOMEN

The other night we were taking
about the beautiful women OF Par
is-as who doesn't?
One fellow said the women here
were the most beautiful in the
world.
But I said no, that wasn't true.
You see women in America and
England who are just as beautiful
AS any in Paris. But 1t seems that
here the percentage OF good-looklng
women is higher than in other
countries.
And another fellow said no, that
wasn't it either. He thought the
ratio was approximately the same
in America and England and
France. But in Paris a bigger per-
centage have the gift OF getting
themselves up to look devastating
And I guess that's 1t.
We thought there were a lot OF
people on the streets those first
two DAYS. But you should have seen
Paris a few days later, when the
whole populace began to come out

A NON-PARISAN YEAR
(San Diego Union)

This seems to be one of those rare phe-
nomena in American politics, non parti-
san national election year Mr.. Roose-
welt, accepting the fourth term ,nomina-
tion before it was offered to him, declared
that he would not run in the usual par
tisan" sense. Now his right bower, Sid
ney Hillman, assures a congressional
committee that the CLIO. political action
organization is "nOn-partisan.'
This is interesting, indeed 1t refutes
certain reports from Chicago of Mr.. Hill
mans activities at the new deal conven-
ton, makes a mere fiction out of his per-
sonal denomination of Mr.. Roosevelt,
myth out of the huge PAC campaign fund
and pure romance out of the attempted
purge of congressional candidates who re-
fused to take CLIO. orders. 1t also seems
to indicate that some malicious individual
is merely seeking to embarrass the PAC
by issuing four-page broadsde Ia copy
of which is before us as we write) lauding
Mr.. Roosevelt to the skies and giving Gov
ernor Dewey both barrels below the belt
Mr.. Hillman's definition of partisan
ship evidently parallels that Of Mr..
Roosevelt. Anything that critici7es or
opposes the new deal is partisan; any
thing that boosts or aidsit is non-partisan
and highly patriotic.

Those of us who expect to be

nav about three times what we

I'm sorry the restaurants couldn't

I'm not much of gourmet 1 DO
value the sense of taste, and we've
eaten enough meals in private homes

Within three days Paris was
