. It is near time for the schools
'throughout the state to open.
It may be a great convenience in
many cases to keep the children
out of school for a month or so ,
but if you can possibly get along
without doing S9-don't do it.
The time will never come again
when they can take advantage
of the educational opportunities
which are now theirs. As you
value their future usefulness ,
1eep them in school now ever } '
moment possible. Parents make
no mistake in iving their chil.
dren an education as one basi

the few cents and was fully paid I

pronounce one of the most
wOllderlul of all United Statcs

censure the city ol1 cial1. ! f igh-

summer. One thing the city
government could do , however.
and by so doing be called blessed
by the people , and that is to
colt1Jlete [ a job of ditching before
commenc1l1g another one. In
various parts of town trenches
have been plowed for ditches and
then left in that condition without -
out putting in tiling at the street
crossings , so that a man hardly
dare go drivin untit he is sure
he can secure a new buggy spring '
without sending to the factory'
for it. It is to be hoped tiling
will be put in at the street crossings -
ings where trenches have been
plowed-before fair week.
