Congressman Colton, in a letter addressed to tho editor, gives the following, which is self explanatory: "From the letters I am receiving 1 am sure it is not generally understood that Congress has passed an act which will enable the mothers and widows of soldiers, sailors and marines of the American Forces now interred in the cemeteries of Europe to make a pilgrimage to these cemeteries. I am sure it will be appreciated if an announcement of this could be made in the columns of your paper, providing it has not already been done. "Those pilgrimages may be made at such times during the period from May 1, 1930, to October 31, 1933, as may eb designated by the Secretary of War. If there are any such mothers or widows in your locality, I shall be glad to furnish detailed information to them and assist them in securing special passports and other suitable traveling documents if they are not native bom citizens of this country. Of course, the government pays all traveling expenses." Eu-roi- ! c, Sevier. Every child in Redmond, Aurora and Salina should have the opportunity of attending school every day school is held. That is his right. As long as even one child is absent from school, unless he is ill, we are not making the most of our opportunity of attending school in this district. It ?osts no more to operate a achool with a hundred per cent attendance than it does with ninety. In the latter case the schools are being operated at a ten per cent loss. That ten per cent is wanted money for taxpay- ers, for the absent students. Certainly parents and students, who are old enough to attend high school, should count the cost of each days absence before it occurs. The financial loss is not the only consideration. There is a handicap to the atude.it himself through scattered absences, a8 well as the lowering of the efficiency and progress of the entire class. No business enterprise would tolerate the percentage of absences and tardiEDITOR FOLKS ENJOY AUTO ness experienced in our rural schools.

Year after yar veiled tragedies occur to the students of North Sevier duo to irregularity of attendant. Failures of children to make their graJvs are caused principally by students absences. Failure of a etudent to pass to a higher grade frequently proves disastrous to his achool caraer, just as a failure In tho business world cripples the fighting spirit of a business man and blights his future. Education morality la strikingly high in North Sevier, and irregular attendance is the chief offender. Parents must be alert to their responsibility in this matter so that they may on the other hand, safeguard the and of tho child, and on tho other hand, that they may reduce to a minimum financial loss to taxpayers duo to pupil failures because of absences. Let us resolve today that every child in the North Sevier shall be given an equal opportunity with every other child in the state in this matter of attendance.

The slaughter of the younger bucks, old hunters contend, will tend to reduce the herds, and restrictions may bo asked for the coming year on the killing of the bucks.

School is txceedingly important and whether tha vacation was an absolute necessity, may be questioned. Th high school was closed to class work Thursday of last week, and sessions will again be resumed Monday, October 28. Usually, following tha beet vacation period, many students are detained on the farm to complete the work program. It is to be hoped that this year will not be a repetition of past years and that every student will make sacrifices to again resume work at the time set, and that further absences from school work during the year will he avoided, so far as practical. Absence from school, Principal Scorup stated, is expensive and it has its demoralizing effect on class organization, study and advancement Thus far tho record attendance for the year at North Sevier has been exceptionally good, and with the full cooperation of students and parents, it can be made better. ten-ds- y bci. iV-e- ar - busi-Da- thnre-pronge- r. as three-pronger- EXPLOITS OF FAMOUS SHIPS RECALLED BY NAVY DAY fern Borg celebrated s.

Have we caught the vision of what might be accomplished if we Ufed every available educational opportunity within our grasp? On phase of this question of opportunity is regular attendance at school. One is really surprised to find how very few students there are in our school systems that make a hundred per cent record in attendance during the year.
