Public sentiment molds the policies of a city, state, or nation, and no man or set of men can successfully combat public sentiment. If a large majority of the people desire a thing there is no good reason why it cannot be had. The only reason possible is that they sit idly by and see the few work their will upon the general public and then lament the result Just now in our state legislature, Thos. H. Burton of Representative Nephi has introduced a bill that would repeal item 3 of section 4614, which law requires the clerk of the school board to enumerate annually in a financial report the money paid out, to whom paid, and for what paid. If there is any good reason why the people who put up the money to run our schools should not know where it goes, we have never heard of it. What would we think of a business man who would turn over to his most trusted employes his money and never require an itemized balance sheet at least once a year? How long would he stay in business? It is a pretty big business that requires from 50 to 60 of all the tax money paid in from a wealthy county to operate, and then to repeal the only means the stockholders of this great institution have to check on this business seems mere madness to us. STANDARD BEARERS In the human soul and in the larger images of humanity which are society, strife is the key to progress and the chief means of turning confusion to order. The clash of ideals, purposes and opinions leads to judgments; it reveals principles and shows us where we stand in relation to them. We go forward by struggles and victories, and such strife is necessary to the purpose of life, as needful as the two millstones which grind thew heat or the hammer and the anvil between which the tool is tempered. In such trials at arms ignorance takes sides too quickly, and allegiance often oves more to obstinacy and prejudice than to judgment. Yet wider knowledge may bring a new danger by urging compromise and leaving no enthusiasms or convictions for which at Every Monday Miss Adams' Beauty Shop Duart Permanent Waving No finger wave, no water waves and ringlet ends.

One Good Trait Thai Village Bad Man Had HEROES TO ORDER There are times when events take hold of men and wrest them out of peace and obscurity into duties and The late Chauncey M. Depew was a young critic one day for harsh criticism. "I'd like to see more of the Kin Kincaid spirt In your work, my boy," the great man said. "Kin Kincaid, you know, was noted for his charity and loving kindness. Never a slanderous word passed bl3 reproving responsibilities unexpected and unsought These, to be sure, are not ordinary men, since they have eyes to see the needs and ears to hear the call where others passed by untroubled. They see there is work to be done, and by this knowledge are called and dedicated. Their duty lies before them, and cowardice alone can close their eyes to it. History shows the need of the hour is no respecter of persons. It calls heroes from among the privates of the army of the world no less than from its leaders. It makes strong men of those who had thought themselves weak and reveals hidden powers by which men rise from obscurity to the heights of leadership. Such necessity, moreover, is a hard master, driving men onward when they are weary for peace and demanding their devotion through every hazard of pain, hatred and misunderstanding. So long as the need is there, they dare not desert their destiny. The record of the world is the record of its heroes. Always there has been a man to step into the breach, to grasp the torch, to lead in the path revealed. So long as there are such men, whose courage will not fail when their eyes are opened, so long will the world push on surely to the days of promise. Hps. "Well, the bad man of the village died in due course, and they all rousted him at the general store the after noon of the fuueral. They roasted liim hard. They pointed out tliut lie was a drunkard and a miser, a wife beater and a liar, a thief and a scandal mn ger, a coward, a usurer and a rake. 'Kin Kincuid listened to all that talk with a little smile of disapprov al, and finally the general storekeeper suid to liim: " 'Now, Kin, don't you look so burt. Ain't everything wot's been said about that old cuss true? Can you name one meritorious trait, Jest one, that he ever showed?' " 'Well, said Kin, 'you boj s'll have to admit that he certainly had a good appetite.' " English Bank Holds Relic of Washington GOOD SENSE AND GOOD BUSINESS Insurance is a sane, modern, In the archives of Barclay's bank in London is a draft for 5 pounds ster ling drawn October 2, 1720, on "James Barclay, banker, 6f Lombard street and remitted for the account of one Patrick Barclay in Jamaica. It bears on Its back the signature of George Washington as purt of an indorse ment. The draft Is in fairly good state of preservation.' Was it t!ie I'a ther of His Country who put that iu dorseinent there? Not long ago Robert L. Ban-lmade iii(iiiries in the I'tiited Slate? from which it appeared that th great Ceoige Washington's s'gn;ilurt when he was eighteen years old (his age to the date of the draft) was no materially iliifereni from this one. Ii Is ti"t improbable that the draft ua sent to Virginia or Carolina, which in those dj;ys were In close commercial touch with Jamaica. Barclay's bank was not aware until a year or so ago of Its precious pos session. The draft was discovered by two girl students from Philadelphia when inspecting some old portfolios in the bank. busi- nesslike expression of the responsibilities of the human relationships. Nobody who takes out an insurance policy expects to get his money back. He doesn't want to. He is merely paying a little to make sure. But in this business of making sure, he is doing his bit to help oth ers to be sure. The practicability of insurance rests upon the participation of many. If thousands insure, their small individual fees will pay for the hard luck that is sure to befall the few. ' And when the hard luck does come, insurance is a matter of extraordinary importance. It is assistance that can be accepted freely and without humiliation. It comes just when it is needed and puts no mortgage upon the future. It draws upon a fund that is ready, paid up in advance without constraint of persuasion or pity. It is good sense, good provision and good business.

Modem Dairy Barn Must Have Good Ventilation It must not be forgotten that each cow in the stable actually gives off from her breath alone about ten pounds of carbondioxide per day and over two gallons of water. Hence, it is perfectly obvious that in the modern dairy stable there must be some system whereby this used, moist, foul air may be regularly taken out of the stable and replaced by fresh air. During the winter months, the occasional opening of doors and windows will help but how often is this done during winter months, and needless to say it is never done during the night. King and other authorities on stable ventilation have estimated that there What Are Vermin? should be a continual air flow through Just what is meant by the term the stable at the rate of about 3,600 "vermin" Is usually a matter of con cubic feet per cow per hour.

True Pessimist! Well Bred Calves Most Valuable Dairy Asset Calves from low producing stock are worth little more than their value for veal, but those from high producing strains must be assigned much greater valuation, as they command excellent prices as breeding stock. In the keeping of high producing animals there are, of course, added expenses such as increased depreciation and risk, increased labor in caring for the animals, and expenses of advertising and selling; but it will generally be found that the value of the calves produced from such stock will more than offset the added expense of raising them over and above that involved in the keeping of common stock. Cold Hampers Cow A high producing dairy cow cannot continue normal production If she Is exposed to seveu weather. It Is, therefore, Important If good yields are expected to hold up through the cold months, that all discomforts be eliminated.
