The improvement is com- mendable, even though it was brought @bout only after the neutral world had condemned the Kkaiser for such acts of barbarity. Germany attempts to make good for by offering compensation for the ‘wrongs which it has committed. Such is possible when cargoes are con- cerned as in the case of the Dutch ship Rijndijic where it was proved by the fragments of a torpedo of Ger- man manufacture that that country was responsible, but it is impossible for that country to restore the lives which have been taken in carrying out such a practice. The plea of a mistake under such ecircumstances fails to make much of an impression. The very act and the failure to ob- serve the precautions which are de- manded under such circumstances shows the intent even though after the offense has been proved an at- tempt is made to rectify it. Money cannot overcome the impression which German methods have left upon the world. Instead of rectifving such mistakes it is preferable that they should not be made. AN UNWISE EFFORT FOR ECON- omY. Democratic economy manifests it- self in peculiar ways. It is consid- ered ddvisable to spend millions for the erection of zovgrnment buildin and the financing of projects through- out the country when there is no crying nced for such action but when it comes to fixing a suitable salary for officials who ar expected to re s an ¢ tirely crent en. There is 1i jection to the expenditure millions for matters which could wait just as well as not, and in e cases objects which neve to be sanctioned, because there is a certain amount of patron- ge involved and election day is not ¢ off, but there is a grest over a few thou- sand ¢ there ought to be no question about the wisdom of its use This is disclosed by the action wh as been taken by the two to ry of the commission. It that the ability 1 It was moving day in Mrs. Smith's home, or rather, what she had called home. The ugly, dismantled look of her apartment gave no hint of its for- mer coziness. ~Barrels and packing cases usurped ncatness and order, and chaos reigned supreme. But the worst was now over; only one day more, and the moving van would back up to her door, and take away all goods and chattels to a place of safe keeping for the summer, while she hied herself away for a long vacation. A~ hurdy-gurdy outside started to play “I'm on My Way,” and Mrs. Smith opening the window, recklessly threw the munificent sum of a dime to the unoffending son of Italy. “Take it,” she called out gaily to the surprised man. “This dime has been waiting for you Your music is very appropriate, Tm on my way; you bet I'm on my way; and the best of it is, nobody can stop’ me until Tm welcomed in my home town.” Does the last named hap- pen to bo ingyour repertoire? If So, kindly reel it off, as it will help lift the burden from my heart, also my shoul- ders” And the Italian, not compre- hending the nonsense, but, in common with his race, catching the infectious galety of it all, smiled delightedly, dis- playing a set of pearls that it would be hard to rival. v, tired ou wearily on the sto agined it was was no fir fortunately she sat down She fondly im- the table, and, as there in the range, her mistake, did not be: But in a little while she arose quickl. “This will never do,” she said, have a thousand and one things to ac- complish I must get to wor So, present n the midst of pack- me apparent. | | all this horrid old time I have had to endure. “Heigho,” she continued, saily stretching her arms out into space, with a gesture that bespoke latent ris. trionic talent, “I love the world, and the world loves mie.

She emitted a veritabie howl of pair Good resolutions were forgotten, an things spiritual. The physical tor- mented her with pang after pang. It seemed as if a million ncedles were | prodding. And then, in the_midst of her misery, the doorbell rang, agoin. She jumped up, in a blind rage, and hopped to the tube. *“No,” she yeiled down. “I do not wish any laces, am I need of soap powder or ncedle I also am not in the market for cultur as evidenced by Shakesperian revivals. But what I @> need, and demand. immunity from pests. “There,” she ejaculated, wrathfully “I_guess that will do for this time.” Horrors, what had she done?

The question which is uppermost in the minds of school boards at the present time concerns the opening of the schools. Different views of it are taken in different places according to| whether the community has had a number of cases of infantile paralysis %o deal with, whether it is in a sec- tion where those from the biz cities whero it is prevalent have gone or ‘whether it has been fortunate enough to have avoided all danger. | Tt is well known that schools are ithe very places where such a disease ould cause great havoc. It is there that those who are particularly sus- ble to it are gathered in num- ing if quarantine measures or bation to which many have jected during the summer is gomg to be cast aside It s nec- to toke the proper precautions rding the opening of the schools if safety Is zomng to bo observed. It is upon this fdea that the local school board has acted in delaying the opening until the 25th of Septem- Bor. It is action in accord with that taken by meny other school boards elsewhere and even though some may claim that there is no danger In open- ing the schools as originally planned there will be the satisfaction of know- g that no chances have been taken garding such an important matter. far beiter to cause this delay of roe weeks and see that the children roturning to the city after their va- cation are free from the trouble than 'd the preventive measure ced to take much more ¥igld action after it is too late. Bet- Ror such action on the side of safety them a disregard for the protection of the chiidren. i3 1 RECTIFYING GERMAN MISTAKES.

LETTERS TO THE EbiTOR Transperting School Children. Mr. Editor:—In resard to the trans- portation of my children on Parish Hill in Back Road district, there has been no profit from the sum of one hundred for transporting my children to the 'bus, covering the dis- tance of three and one-half miles per day for two hundred school days, and simply ask to be relieved of this job on account of my health. I volunteer- ed to do this job for one hundred dol- lars in case they failed to get anyone else to do it. This offer I now coun- termand since the board has voted to give me fifty dolars for the same. Under no consideration will I do this work for less than one hundred and forty-five dollars which is five dollars less than was bid by other parties. Until this thing is settled my children will be ready and waiting for their full transportation in front of my house which is four and one-haf miles from their school and seven-eighths of a mile from where the 'hus crosses, a lonely and untravelled road.
