Next week County School Superin tendent Gary and City Superintendent Tooze are to be present at the gather ing and talk on the proposed new sys tem of school education. A week lat er there will be a debate the subject being, "Resolved, That Iron is More Valuable Than Gold." The young peo ple are to speak on this subject. "LET US ALONE." This is the Slogan of Gladstone as to Road Matters. Gladstone people wish to be left nlone ns they now are In rond matters. This dictum has gone forth because Of the fact that rumors have It that the County Court contemplates chang es In the rond mntters ns they now affect Gladstone. As the story goes It Is planned to make a road district for Gladstone, cut ting off from both ends of the district as It now stands. The road now runs through Glndstone to the Onk Grove rond on the north nnd to a point up the river some distance from the vil lage. Gladstone wants things left as now. claiming things nre In good shape and thnt It is going to be easy to keep them so. A change will mean addi tional expense nnd this is not wanted nt this time. In a year or two a change mny be advisable, but just now it is thought wise to leave well enough alone.
