This blame, say those | | who have studied the matter, is | not to be placed upon the school itself but rather upon the people | | who wish the school system to| } carry burdens that properly be- {long upon the parents. The schools can only train and char- acter must be built on the foun- dation established within the | home. Through a sudden shift of one kind or another wealth may be thrust suddenly into hands un- familiar with its handling. But | those who have not worked and learned to handle money find | that having control of money in- | volves responsibilities and_ if | note is taken it will be found that | the vast majority of those who | have acquired even a comfort- | able competence have secured it | through long and steady applica- | tion. | But as has long ago been re- | marked by noted sages, there is} | no royai road to learning. Even ) a genius, much as some dislike to | | believe it, must work. No great | writing, no great picture, no | great work of art was “dashed joff in a hurry.” This same ap- | plies in great engineering and | building feats for behind each rwonderful structure, whether it | be a building or a bridge or a gigantic electric plant or piece of | railroad work is to be found | much toil and labor not to be ob- | served in the finished product. Just as nature takes but a | short time to produce a pumpkin | but years to grow a forest giant, | Just so must man spend time, | energy, brains and labor in pro- | ducing something worth while. j It is a matter over which some | Persons might ponder for their | ;own henefit. Knowledge is ac-| |} quired slowly and so. is about | everything else worth while, in- | cluding’ experience. 1 Seen THE FOURTH. Times have changed some-| what and those who are only | fairly well advanced in years ob- serve the difference in the Four- th of July celebrations each year, It was not so long ago when mother wondered if Jack and Susie would come home intact or minus an eye, a finger or two or a leg. Now she can permit them | to go to about any celebration in any part of the community and rest assured that if Jack escapes | a fight and Susie is nimble foot- ed enough to get out of the way of autos they are due to come home safe and sound with all the | various parts of their anatomy | where they belong. Since the papers started to publish detailed figures on Four- | th of July accidents there has been a steady decline in that | form of woe. The treacherous | cannon, the giant cracker, the} toy pistol and the pestiferous | “nigger chaser” are either under | the ban or handled in such a way | ]/as to eliminate the danger for| small folks. | Of course the small children | rather resent this change. But when all things are said and done perhaps it is for the best. The children may be minus some excitement but mother has lost a lot of her worries and dad is| relieved of considerable expense | so the price paid by the little | ones for the benefit mother gets | is not excessive. | ——— | It still is a good idea to kill all the flies possible for they carry | just as many germs as ever. If you are in the market for | good seed or table potatoes leave | your orders with the Cotton-| wood Milling and Elevator Co. tf) Right now is the time to see Hoene at the Hardware for your Binder twine needs. Delay may inconvenience you. 25-tf Eventually you will buy “Tip Tap” why not today? 14tf DWISION OF GERMAN REPARATIONS MADE France Gets 52 Per Cent and Other Allies Share the Balance. Brussels.—An agreement has virtu- ally been reached by the allied pre miers in conference here with regard to the division of German reparations ] on the basis of fifty-two per cent to Great Britain, ten per cent to Italy eight per cent to Belgium and five per cent to Serbia, it was stated here ‘The remaining three per cent will be divided among the other allies, in- | cluding Roumania, Portugal and Ja pan, This tentative settlement was de elared to have been arrived at in a conference of the French, British, ftalian and Belgian delegates. The conference, which has received alarming news regarding the progress of the Russian Bolsheviki in their of- fensive against Poland, will consider the military situaticn of the new re- public, it was learned here Saturday Marshal Foch, the allied commander in chief, and Field Marshal Wilson head of the British general staff, have been consulted by the conferees on this subject. Saal New Figures ° ° On Tire Mileage The Miller Tire makers, in late years, have nearly doubled their tire mileage. ; In their factory tests made last year no rival tire could match the Miller service. Miller treads outwore all rivals by an average of 25 per cent. Large tire users are making million-mile com- parisons. As high as 20 rival makes are com- pared with Millers. Miller Tires have already won many of these tests. Large Miller dealers, making careful compar- isons, find that Miller Tires increase their cus- tomers’ mileage from 50 per cent to 75 per cent. It is time to get new figures on tire mileage. Try a Miller, watch the mileage, compare it with the tire that you use opposite. | Hundreds of thousands have in | this way come to Miller Tires. And | Millers are today the most talked- | about tires in America. Tread Patented Center tread smooth, with suction cup, for firm hold on wet asphalt. Geared-to-the- Road side treads mesh like cogs in dirt. ? Miller Tires Now the Record Makers Cords or Fabrics Geared-to-the-Road RAIL WRECK FATAL Eighteen Killed and 100 Injured When | Cars Crash. | Scranton, Pa—In a collision be- | tween three cars on the Lackawanna and Wyoming valley railroad near! South Pittston station 18 persons are | reported killed and 100 injured. The accident occurred when lightning struck a telegraph pole along the line | of the track and the pole fell over on the tracks in front of a car bound for Scranton: A moment later a limited car crash ed into the rear of the cur that struck the pole, and a third car telescoped | the second car. | Many of these killed and injured had attended the annual games of the Caldenian clubs of Scranton and Pitts- ton at Valley View park Cottonwood Garage “An all-around good shot. That’s us.” — Chesterfield HAT we're aiming at, is that it takes both skill and precision to blend tobaccos the Chesterfield way. Maybe this is why you find “Satisfy” in Chesterfields and nowhere else. Washington Alters Status of Counties. | Olympia, Wash.—Reclassification of | counties in the state of Washington, | based on the 1920 census, has been for- | warded by Captain I. M. Howell, sec- retary of state, to county auditors for | use in computing filling fees to be) charged candidates for office in the coming elections. Actual population | figures were not furnished the state! department of elections by the census bureau, but a reclassification list was compiled by W. M. Stewart, assistant cepaus director.
