There Is one thing very noticeable about some of our schools and this Is that all teachers, pupils and parents are stirring against the common good ; of the community In Oder to accom-j pllsh In the end what the world sees ! among them to be a personal grlev- j ance, ultimately bringing about con_ , fusion which Is the unwise thing | to do. The board should be the backbone of the school. It should be composed of our best Informed, the deepest thinkers and most progres- [ slve men, regardless of factional i feelings. Don't be afraid to take j action In matters of vital concern. | . .Don't be afratd of making anybody mad. Some people will stay mad whether you bother them or not They are perpetual knockers. It In almost an unexousable calamity to allow our children to grow up de- f void of the higher e1<;ni?nt of know. | ledge which our schools alone next i to our homes, can give. No one should be allowed to teach as a pastime or to collect spending money on which to dress. It Is to be deplored that we lack co-operation In our community and a better feeling should exist. If for no other reason It should be for the specific sympathy that we manifest for St. Peter who will be confronted at the gate with such a tangle of factionalism that his think pot will be overwhelmingly puzzled as to how to admit all factions I am no school teacher but these are some of the things that have come directly under my observation and I am satisfied should be remedied.

It was the pleasure of the writer on an early morn sometime since to join a few friends on an eastern tour by automobile across the country in the direction of the great Atlantic coast We had easy nailing until we reached the slopes leading east ward to Lynches river. At this juncture, the hills became so steep that the rear end of the heavy Cadillac was running In front. At high noon we reached the river After a ship of a few hundred yards, the car began its laborious struggle climbing the declivity on the eastern side of the stream where we found the steeps so great that the headlight in front of the faithful almost exhausted and panting engine would shine with much brilliancy Into the rear end <rf the famous roadster, illuminating It as the rising sun would the eastern sky in the early morn of a clear day. It would have been hard for us to have given the faintest Idea of our destination as we were unable to decide Just which way we were going, whether we would ever reach the top of the mighty mountain again.
