EDITOR I A L
RACK TO SCHOOL.
This Is touting time' tor many a
boy and girl. Tho lure of wages, the
desire to go out In the world and
do somothing, Impatience with the
slow grind of classroom work, the
necessity of contributing to the fami
ly Income all these are motives that
are working powerful at this tlmo of
year on boys nnd girls everywhere.
To a large oxtont the boys and
girls liavo this problem In their own
hands. For the most part tbey must
sottlo It themselves. We can only
hope that most of them can be made
to see that for themselves and for
the community tho wlso thing to do
Is to use youth's golden hour to get
every bit of education possible.
One or two postlve things tho
school and the community can do Is
to help the boys and girls make
the right decision. One is to' make
the school better, paying touchers
enough so critical youth gets the
right kind of teachor, and giving
educatlontlonal opportunities of
every sort regnrdless of whether the
sought are "the rogular thing" or
not. Many a boy saver" to the school
by a good practlco course In manual
training will profit by many other
things the school has to offer 'and
continue his education.
The average parent can holp by
discarding the Idea he Is far likely
too hold that "what was good
enough for me and my father is
good enough for my boy." It Isn't.
The world moves. The parent who
nowadays deliberately lets his child
luavo school at the end of the eighth
grade or the ' compulsory school
period Is practically' condemning him
to a life of failure. The fact that
a few emerge without education must
not blind lis to the fact that there
are thousands of young mon nnd wo
men who have the finest natural
qualities and novor can rlsd because
of lack of education, Something
of this .youth can be told that wc
nre soon coming to the point In this
countny, If we nre not already thore
whon tho boy nnd girl without
high-school education will bo hopo
loHsly handicapped In gottlng along.
Certnlnly every boy and girl In
tho United Statos should have a
high school education an a minimum.
That is the lonst the Nation cau nsk.

My
S. W. Moore, City Superintendent, of Schools who enters
year as administrative head of the Bend Public
Indiana Is making phenomlcal
progress along educational lines. A
roceut act of the legislature fixes
the wage of beginning rural teachers
at J2.83 per day. At that rate they
wll be able to Insure decent burial
by the time they attain to the age
of Methusalah provided the cost of
living reverts to the level of that

Turning over some newspaper
cuttings (writes a correspondent),
I have Just come across one dated
February, 1913, which certainly un
derlines, one of the many chances
that a six short years have brought
about. "A few day ago." says the
writer oT the paragraph, "the Rus
sian Post Office Issued a series of
special stamps bearing the effigies
of the Romanoff Tsari,, including
that of Nicholas II. It was the first
time that the Tsars had appeared on
postage stamps, and probably the
last, for these stamps are now to be
withdrawn. The Holy Synod, sitting
In solemn conclave, has decided that
to strike the Imeperlal visage with
a die In order to obliterate the
Impiety. Thin Is something worse
than less-majeste. The Russian
Post Office authorities have had an
uneasy feeling that It was not quite
the thing, and have been very chary
In defacing the stamps. Those that
have reached this country hare been
defaced only on the extreme edge."
