Don't you believe It; no matter what doctor writes the prescription, or i what name may be on the blank, its YOUR PRESCRIPTION and you are at liberty to have it prepared where you choose. For nearly twenty years we have been filling prescriptions right here In the same place, and at the same time we have been improving our store and service, until no honest doc tor can truthfully say that we are not as fully and completely equipped for prescription work as any store In the state. If you want the best prescrip tion service It Is possible to get, at prices no higher, and In many In stances lower than elsewhere, let us be your druggists. " HUNTLEY BROS. CO.

The educational rallys being held throughout the coun ty, seem to be a new departure. There being several objects in view. First, to draw parents and teachers into a closer relationship for the betterment of the pupils.

Redland, Quite a crowd attended the meeting at the grange hall last Wednesday night to hear State Superintendent Ackerman and County Superintendent Gary. Prof. Ackerman's topic was, "The Home and Schools as a Unit." His address in part was to the effect that you cannot expect the teacher to improve your children if yourselves do not set a high standard for them. He cited a grave mistake parents make when they send an excuse by Willie for being absent, saying that he has been sick; when the truth was that he probably had to stay out to work. The speaker stated that there are three classes of pupils: Liter ary, hand and commercial minded. The literary minded pupil will be always studying; the hand minded want to be making things. Mr. Acker man thinks it would be wrong to crowd him In literary matters. The commercial minded; the boy that starts to play marbles for keeps and gets all of his school mate's marbles, should have a commercial training. The address throughout was highly interesting as well as entertaining. Mr. Ackerman is a strong believer in apportioning a lump sum to school districts instead of the present sys tem, a matter in which your corres pondent agrees with him. L. H.

(The following communication was recieved at the Courier office Thnis day evening of last week, just too late for that issue of the paper, and it has been Mr. Kelly's request that we give it space in tins issue. Editor. ) Editor Courier : Recently, at the earnest solicitation of a prominent oitizem, who said, "I want yon to see just how irreverent and blasphe mous Dan Shannon, the evangelist, is," I wont to hear him, aud have re greltod it ever since, for in all my life I never before heard tne mime of the Almighty Jehovah, the Infinite Creator of the illimitable universe, the Eternal God, before whom angels bow and archangels veil their faces, I never before heard the holy name used with Bnuh flippancy, irrevere u oe aud blusphemy, Why the people should turn out to hear this "evangelist" (so called) as they do, is astonishing, for he is a self-conceited, self -righteous ignora mus, or, lie is a rank hypocrite. His admirers may take either side of the statement, as they prefer. The good good has been accomp lished during the recent meetings has not been because of the "evaugelist", hut in spite of him, for the Eternal God "briugeth good out of evil, and maketh the wrath of man to praise Him." Years ago, at my mother's knee, I was taught to revere the ever blessed name ot Jehovah, and I am than&ful to be able to say that, however I may have departed from her teachings in other respects, I don't think I have ever.been guilty of irrevereuce. This evangelist is gifted in many ways and at tiniv.s has his hearers deeply affected and his audience won derfully moved and seriously .think ing, and then, God save the mark, he spoils it all with some ribald joke or some shocking, irreverent phrase. To use a homely comparison lie is like the oow that gives a pailful ot good. delicious milk and then pats her dirty toot right aown into it (apology flue the cow. She don't know any better). Moses saw a burning bush, and turning asido to see why the besh was not consumed, lnard the voice of God saying, "Put thy shoes from off thy feet, for the place where thou stand est is holy ground." Evidently onr "evangelist" has not derived any les son from this scripture, or lie would be more meek, humble, modest and reverent. As to the abuse he has heaped on St. John's and St. Paul's churches my reply is, the church waB preaching the gospel about 2000 years before onr revivalist wan born, and about 1600 years before the Seot he represent had been heard of, and will still be preRohing the same gospel and ad ministering the Sacraments when the subjoct of this sketoh and his irrever ence are forgotten. Respectfully, 11. 1j. KULOj. Maple Lane. Maple Lane's new telephone line is about completed.
