' If the authority of the schoof board is to be questioned and a rumpus raised over the discharge of every teacher that is let out, the board will be seriously handicapped and the school administration badly hampered, for there can be little efficiency where there is no discipline and still less where there is disloyalty. , , n. v,i Knai-ri if elected to administer school affairs, is held responsible for their welfare and its authority must be upheld.

Treaty Delays; The national administration is reported as much con cerned over the delay of the great powers in ratifying treaties negotiated at the Washington conference. The four and five power pacts that were to alter civilization and re form mankind have not met the speedy acceptance expected, or desired for campaign purposes. As a matter of fact, none of the powers except the United States has ratified any of these treaties, barring China which has approved the nine power pact. Japan expects to take up consideration of the four power Pacific treaty next month. But the same report was sent out some months ago. It is always next month with Japan and there is no sign as yet of any warships being scrapped in the land or the seas of the Mikado.
