What can be done, to help our chil
dren get tin intelligent edurntlou?
Is the education they nre getting
leading to ultimate happiness and
usefulness? It Is not so tnttcli prnfle-
ln the finished product that
tits (for prnellce makes perfect)
but otlgtiiallly of Ideas.
The mothers of Medford are to be
congratulated that such a splendid
opiHirtuuity was given them to meet
women who are tnklnir an aellve parti
in constructive educational work. It
Is a privilege and Inspiration that
should be appreciated.

Store Editorial
Two of the most vital
points which effects mer

situation and the constant
ly increasing prices. Tho
causes for these condi
tions the American people
have no choosing iu the

pay the increased prices,
whatever they may be, or
take our chances on mater
ials as they come to us
regarding the coloring
