Better Teacher Pay Means Better Schools
The new school term finds many of the schools in this county
without full fetching stiff. Causes for this teacher shortage,
ich is general throughout the nition, may be attributed in ptrt
to the low wage of the teiching profession, the decline of teacher
tr.7nine-school attendance durine the war years and to the still
rigid social requirements demanded of teachers in some localities.
The importance of maintaining adequate salaries and desirable
working conditions for our teachers can not be over estimated
when their responsibilities and vast influences with our youth are
considered. Our democracy itself is based on free education.
If we will not lose ourselves in ignorance and make ourselves
vulnerable to the propaganda teachings that have destroyed free
thinking in Europe, we must work, and work hard, for a sound
education system staffed by teachers well-schooled, well-paid and
deeply conscientious in their work.
It's Rodeo Time Again
The harvest is nearly over and in the spirit of rejoicing, Hepp
ner will end the season with its annual Rodeo.
Whe the cowboys, the ranchers and all those associated with
the land and livestock come to the celebration, they will carry with
them the satisfacion of a year's work well done, of bountiful crops
well harvested. For this is, indeed, the land of plenty, of rich
rangeland and grain fields, of fat cattle and sheep, of sleek horses.
Let them not forget to cherish the wealth of soil and seed that
nature has loaned them for the span of their lifetime. May future
generations come to the rodeo, rejoicing, and blessing the ancev
tors who reaped wisely and conserved the natural resources for
them and their children's children.
