In the matter of high schools we should not forget that here we are caring foe hundreds of hoys and girls who ca'fi Jiever go to college, ami who would ho poorly equipped for life, jf it were not for the state ..tided high schools. .Then there is the great army of pupils in rural schools who are handieapped l»y“.causes over which they lqive no con trol.

Jimmie said If their education taught them t?> torpedo T,dsitnnia«. sink hos pital ships, murdjer hundreds of wom en and children, make slaves of the Belgians, poison wells, destroy'"fruit trees and commit all sorts of crimes, then we did not want that kind of education here. What do you think about it. Uncle Dan? I told Jimmie you spent a lot of time In Europe and knew all about schools,’so give us your opinion.” “Well.” replied Uncle Dan. deliber ately, “the- German schools are very thorough ; they furnish exceedingly val uable and practical instruction.

Once we gave hut! small attention to this unfortu nate class, so long as they were not a burden to themselves and community. When we began make the individual blindly submis sive to the I’rjisslan plan of world'do minion; they teach that it is the des tiny of Germany to rule the world, and that to the glory and advance of Ger many, in this plan, all things must give, way; that the kaiser as head of the state, can do no wrong if he carries forward the plan of world control. Some of 'the greatest teachers and. preachers even defend and Justify her heartless crushing of Belgium and the many other atrocloH^, crimes she has committed In this war.—- Thank God, our American education reaches both the head and the heart.

Their de- -that scendants furnished the larger ttumher of criminals, made up the majority of fallen and vi cious women, and almost inva riably n j) rod uced feeble mind etl- ness in their descendants. Our problem-is not so mltcli to pro tect fhe feebleminded as to pro tect ourselves from them. The records show that among the men sent to Camp Jackson, thirteen of every thousand were sent home because of feeble mindedness.

Jimmie asked him if Germanyjivas so mighty good, why they did not go back there* to live.” ' “Our government will go on forever, won’t it, Uncle Dan?” “Now,” said Uncle Dan. “you are raising a big question, and one that has troubled me for years. Our gov ernment Is still In the experimental stage; in fact. It Is the greatest ex periment ever undertaken, and if pop ular government is to bt* successful, a few things must be done, otherwise, to paraphrase the great Lincoln, the gov ernment of the people, by the people and for the people, will perish.
