The following editorial from Colliers is indicative of the stand taken by the people in different sections of the country: The Chicago Tribune, having polled 10,000 of its readers, finds that more than 80 per cent of the parents so questioned are for the introduction of military drill in the public schools. This a vote, like the wonderful development of the Boy Scout movement, marks with emphasis the coming of a new spirit into American life. It means that not citibut foreign-bor- n only native-born- 4 zens realize the truth of President Elliot's saying (that if democracy is to endure it must be as efficient in warfare as monarchy is. It means also that all sense of security from the Old worlds rages is lost out of our thinking. We are in the press now our adolescence and its rosy dreams are over, We must prepared to defend our ideals or let them go. The danger is that in the development of this new department only half way and slipshod measures will prevail. If we are to have military training in the schools, let it be thorough. o 0 0 OUR HOMES AND OUR PEOPLE The home life of Jliis community is an indication of the character and make up of the people who constitute the community. Ofcnur.se yoqwilL find except umiitocv-- . ery rule of life, but it is an indisputable fact that the home life of this town and countryside is one of the brightest spots in our existence. We have been in a number of the local homes and in almost every instance we have found a spirit of happiness, contentment and thrift prevailing seven days in the week. We have found amicable relations existing between the?heads of families ; we have found strong indications of filial respect and devotion on the part of. the children for tlieir pa, ents ; we have found a spirit of love and comradeship existing one toward another. It speaks in volumes for the homes, the people and the community. It indicates that we have a people who are abovethe average in intelligence, moving in an atmosphere that elevates instead of destroys. In ithe business houses and offices, in the factoriesand in the shops, we fimfa consistent desire to be fair minded' and imt in the commercial affairs of the day. That craving to. skin the other fellow so prevalent in some communities is happily absent here. Our .people are moving steadily and persistently and consistently onward andupward to better things and td a greater futuYe. Such is Ike spirit of, tfe community- ns we find.it in our daily rounds. It is a condition of which we are proud, of which every citizen should be proud. It is the mirror which reflects the inner life of bur hom.es and our people. . - , - bta All fences.

And yet we are not free from many of that beset bumanr nature,-a-nd is this the case in determining the especially relative value of the penny and the dollar. Not long ago a warm personal friend dropped a penny in a puddle of soft mud. It was only a penny, yet our friend promptly dived into the ooze and rescued that penny and restored it to his pocket. He felt better after the ordeal. In the back yard of that same friend was a lawn mower of expensive make rusting its life away in the rain when it might just as well have been oiled up and put away in a dry place to await the coming of the green grass in thespring. The expensive lawn mower represented an expenditure of dollars,, while the penny was cash in the puddle of mud. We know, of a certain farmer in this secu tion who doesnt take his home, paper e ;t cost a few cents a year He is great on saving the pennies. Yet on his farm if take the trouble to drive by you will find wagons, mowers, rakes, and machinery and implements of all kinds still standing without a particle of shelter, some of them actually in the fields. Rust will soon get its work in and push this expensive machinery on toward the junk pile. We might go on and enumerate cases by the dozens, cases of people known to you all. The story is much the same wherever you go or turn. The immediate penny is saved at the expense of the dollar of tomorrow. We fish around in the slimy ooze in search of the dropped penny, consuming our time and energy for a paltry penny, when by a little forethought we should be prolonging its life and the usefulness of articles that cost many dollars. a dollar is a hundred times The valne that of a cent and yet there are times in the liyes of all of us when we give more heeddo the penny that e see than we do to the dollar that we feel. But then these ae just a few of the vagaries of human nature, and we are all int tensely human.
