NATIONAL PREPAREPNESS The question of military train ing in our public schools is gain' ing favor throughout the country j and will be more and mere a (question of expediency as the I people come to realize that if we are to maintain a . nation in the ! first rank of nations we . must j have a militia large enough to defend or maintain it. Some high schools throughout the country are installing mili tary training for those who de sire to take ii As yet it has not become compulsory and being popular compulsion ii hardly necessary. We take great pride in our public. schooL system and will ingly support our schools because we realize that education is es sential to good citizenship, es pecially in a republican form of government, but there is one form of education that has been rather neglected and that is the kind that teaches us how to de fend our country against inva sion by a foreign foe. The old saying tnat in time qt peace prepare for war'' is as applicable how as it was years ago. Any nation which leaves out of its curriculum an education in mili tary tactics invites trouble from toreign foeq. . Leaving qut the question of national defense there still remains good and sufficient rea son for military training in our schools. Anyone who ha3 had military training will testify that the drill required is conducive to good health and will change the awkward boy . into a graceful yoUng man. It will fill out the hollow chesl, straighten the shonlders and change the sham bling gait to one of ease and grace, it, in fact, does for th body whut education does for the mind and should be a part Of all educational programs. We hope that the time is not far distant when every high school will arrange Its curricu lum so that some time may be devoted to military training. , .

There is also an effort being made to stop unnecessary waste in the use of water, The city ordinance is liberal enough in the use of water and every citizen may have enough water for all legiti mate purposes hut the wanton wa3te of it works a hardship Mion the taxpayers If those who were in the habit of mi using their rights were made to pay for it, the city water bill would be considerably lessened. trust no one will hesitite to call on us for we are anxious to meet all our subscribers and become Detter aijqnaintea.

It looks now like a reunited republican party, stropger and better than ever. Sometime? a j little refining fire is a mighty good thing. President Wilson will take the stump in defense of his policies and Bryan threatens to follow him up on his own little hobby horse, "peace at any price."
