Now here comes our one time friend Congressman Lever and writes the Observer commending an editorial on compulsory education or rather commending the plan of the State taking over the education of the children. Well, we are glad that he is seeing the light and is now joining the procession. Why, bless your dear life, we have been making the fight for years and made it in this county and in the legislature when many of the ardent friends now were saying we were not ready for it, whereas if they had joined the advanced thought then we might have had a compulsory attendance law long ago, and probably fttf ctfnoMrtn hgvp tuc UU^iOiV/ OlbUUbiVUr W VUAU **Mf V been much improved. However, we are glad to see so many of our prominent*men are beginning to see the light and are advocating a compulsory attendance lavr.

Why, we can not understand, but ; when it is morning, and "it will be morning," and "God's morning," some of these days, and then we will know and we will see and know the wisdom j and the mercy and the loving kindj liess of it all. The loving Providence without whose knowledge not even a sparrow falls, will watch over and tenderly care for those whom he chasteneth.

We notice that our contemporary bewails the fact that it had to go to press the other day without proof I reading some two pages of one paper .and then offers a prize for the school [ child who will find the errors and sug gest the corrections tne best. Why, belss your heart, we have had to go to press several times in the recent past without proof reading sev! oral itmes, and nearly every issue we do it. We like the spirit of our contemporary that a paper should be ; well proof read and clean and clear of errors, because it is in a sense a t j school marm, hut in these times we feel fortunate if we can go to press at all at or near the time we should go, but we hope conditions will soon ImnivWCk inrl TtTO mpv hp flVklo rPfl , V t V ttUU ??

But with making up the forms and correcting the galleys and reading the proof and justifying the forms and do. ! in? the mailing, not to speak of try; ing to write a little something, and making a few collections and keeping the ghost walking on Saturday 1 nrfllfT* evening, we lliiiia. we aie uvma well. In addition to all these things there is the job of helping to cook the breakfast and the dinner and the supper and Smuse those two American . boys. We did not know until recently that we could cook a steak so well But we are learning many things and we find the hardest job now is to get the steak. (Bless your heart, life seems to be FALL : our price ived this we jst styles. . . w ^*v Y, ) getting real and earnest in this day and it is a joy to be living, a grand and glorious thing. And the small matter of printing some things without proof reading '.s ; the smallest of our worries, and we hope the intelligent readers of The , Herald and News will know that the errors are only typographical. ( But our contemporary is altogether I j correct, the newspaper should be ' norafnllxr a -n r? a c <">a rofn Tlrr nrnnf , vai VLUliJ VUlWU MUVi U.W VMl VAU&l T Wfc I j read, and we wish we had thfe tim v and the help so that we could do it like it should be done, and like we flatter ourselves that we could do the I job if we had the opportunity. Buc I our experience in these times is that ; you simply have to go along and do I the best you can and not worry about , the results, for if you did you would i soon die of worry and premature old age. Many times we do not print items of live news that we have and would 1 '^4- TTfl^ a? 4-A Qz? j 1IAC tU pi 111 I* fJUl vviicil LUC ikuc vviuv.7 , i to go to press we go, and they can b3 j printed the next time if still live.

If I there are any who do not like the ! , way we do they are welcome to the j job if they can do better, 'but as for us we are not going to worry about any of it.

In our early days we would worry ; snmp if snmft rmo. ordered "hie; subscriD ! tion discontinued, buinow it is up to : ; the subscriber. If he likes the paper ; and feels like paying the price we j are pleased to have his name, but i! J he does not it is all right. We have many subscribers who have been with the paper during all the time of our connection and before. When the time is out we stop the paper, not because we want to, but because we take it that if any one really wants it. he can easily pay the small price j charged, and the way to find out is tD j stop it when the time paid for has ex- ' ! pired.

If the mills can open without detrilient to the public health we can se? 30 good reason for requiring: the schools and churches and amusement louses to remain closed. Certainly ;here could not (be as much danger )f contagion in an hour at church and an hour at the playhouse and 'our or five hours at schodl as there s in the crowded mill room for ten lours on the stretch. Or to put it ;his way, is commercialism of nuch mor importance than church ind school that the risk should bo a'ien, if risk there be, in the one case ir d not in the other.
