PES YEAH IN ADVANCE
-I- A LIBERAL ADUCATION
That man. I think, has
had a liberal education who
has been so trained in youth
that his body is the ready
servant of his will, and
does with ease and pleasure
all the w-ork that, as a me
chanism, it is capable of;
r whose iutellect is a clear,
cold, logic engine, with all
its parts of equal strength
and smooth working order;
ready, like a steam engine,
to be turned to any kind of
work, and spin the gossa
mers as well as forge the
the anchors of the mind;
whose mind is stored with
knowledge of the great fun
damental truths of jiature
and of the laws of her op
erations; on who, no stunt
ed ascetic, is full of life and
fire, but whose passions are
trained to coma to heel by
a vigorous will, the servant
of a tender conscience; who
ha3 learned to love all beau
ty, whether of nature or of
art, to hate all vileness. and
to respect others as him
self. T. II. Huxley.

Another reason some loafers op
pose modern improvements like ce

A big potato crop i3 being gath

Lord Northclifte was a man apart
from most of his fellows. While he
lived by virtue of hi3 achievements,
it appears he rose no higher than
the common level in his ability to
write a will that suited everybody
concerned.
-:o:-
"Rents have been reduced in Kan
sas City, 15 per cent." but of course
we can't all live in Kansas City. And
besides, you have to be an old resi
dent to identify the 15 per cent re
duction, which, like the new long
skirt, is going about largoly incog
nito. The administration, it is now said,
rather inclines to the policy of al
lowing the railroads and the strik
ing shopmen to fight it out if it takes
all winter. Probably that is an exag
geration. What the administration
means, more likely, is to let them
fight it out until after the election.
EASY HONEY
Easy money coming for somebody.
Industrial corporations in September
will distribute over $37,000,000 in
dividends, against 42,000,000 in
July, 1919, when money grew on
trees.
After a!', is it easy money? At the
source, dividends originate in sav
ings in installments .instead of hav
ing the thrill of blowing the princi
pal all in at one time.
The dividends system does not
please all Americans, but at least the
picking is open to anyone willing to
scrimp and save.

LABOR MAKING
GREAT STRIDES
Secretary of Labor Davis Says Mark
ed Progress Has Been Made
in the Past Year.
Moosohart, 111.. Sept. 4. Ameri
can labor has made great strides in
the past year. Secretary Davis of the
lalor department, declared today in
a Labor day address. In spite of un
employment, he declared, it has
fought off all attniepts to decrease
wage levels set up during the war
and safely passed a war crisis. Work
ingnieu, "grown accustomed to com
forts in life not tasted bet'ore," he
added, "will now find them pre
served." "Dospite the pressure of a tremen
dous mass of unemployed, despite the
efforts of a few reactionary employers
who selfishly sought to take advan
tage of the distress of labor and the
nation we have kept the general level
of wages up," he declared. "I am
safe in saying the average compen
sation of the man who toil3 is with
in a few per cent of what it was a t
year ago and some have received an
increase."
Continuation of high wage levels,
Mr. Davis predicted would bring
prosperity in the United States, be
cause it would increase the nation's
consuming power. There have been
industries conflicts, ho said, refer
ring to the mines, rail and textile
strikes, which have meant "incalcu
lable loss." and loss that "will reach
every man, woman and child in
America."

must join forces if the campaign is
to be completely successful."
CALLS FOR MILITANT ACTION
Omaha, Sept. 5. The Nebraska
federation of labor today adopted a
resolution asking a general strike of
all organized labor in the United
States in support of the railroad
shopmen, against whom a federal in
junction was issued in Chicago last
Friday. It also appointed a commit
ter to suggest plan to "place the mor
al and financial support of union la
bor" behind the striking shopmen.
T. J. Conboy called on the men to
become militant. He characterized
them as being "chloroformed," and
referred to Attorney General Daugh
erty as being a "peanut," acting for
a "rubber stamp" president.
SCHOOL ENE0LLMENT LARGE
The enrollment of the city schools
while not fully complete indicates
that the number of scholars will be
much greater than the year past. In
the grades there are 800 children
registered and in the high school,
255, a gain of over 45 since 1921.
The freshman class numbers 92,
which is the largest freshman class
ever admitted to the high school. A
part of the classes of the high school
will be seated on the stage of the
auditorium as the seating capacity
of the room is very crowded.
