“Made in America" should te
taken seriusly to heart by enter
prising and ambitious young women
who have been getting their hus
bands in Europe.
The Third Party is to continue
on its way to Armageddon, Water
loo, or whatever latter-day conflict
may be applicable to the occasion.
A national ticket will be launched
in 1916. The Bull Moose mana
gers m%t in Chicago and decided
not to lie down. Perhaps they’d
rather be buried in 1916 than in
1914. _
If figures may be relied upon the
European war is disposing of the
European supply of horses in short
o*rder. Americans are now being
asked to fill the holes that have
b?en made by Krupp and Mauser.
If Americans cared to stop the war
refusal to sell horses for wholesale
butchery would do so. By a very
f ;w strokes of his pen, President
Wilson could prevent shipments of
horse-flesh into the war zone.
Without horses, even with the
ubiquitous automobile, the scourge
o the War God would be mitigated.
EDUCATION.
The most important and far
reaching influence of our present
<S"dlay oj'nYiza.tion is education, and
of all" the various branches of edu
cation that elementary training
which comes from the public
school the bulwark of our nation,
is by far the most essential and
significant. Yet, in our busy
work a-day lives we cannot spare
a moment—most of us—to watch
at first hand the workings of this
great system that is building a
nation of future citizens. In no
other branch of human endeavor,
we believe, can there be found
5 u h a condition as that which
prompts people, the parents of
boys and girls, to neglect a duty
that should be made a pleasure.
We take it for granted, of course,
that our children are doing "all
right" in school but we never take
the trouble to see whether they
are or not, and knowledge of their
progress is restricted to a cursory
examination of a monthly report
card. It is necessary, we contend,
for every parent to be so interest
ed in his child that he wil' become
intimately associated with him in
1 is daily school work, and an oc
casional visit to a public school
whether we have children or not,
will be a revelation. We watch
jealously the expenditure of our
funds for the grocery bills, the
rent and the other household ex
p nses; we pay little or no atten
tion to the great expense which
educates our youths, and we ignore
entirely the great influence which
makes for good or bad in our boys'
and girls. It is a condition of
which most of us should be heart- .
ily ashamed.
