Looking at it from the material side? ?which is the side tTom which so many o' us do look ar our occupations? school teaching is the most beggarly profession in the United States. 2sc Hiker calling that is presumed to re quire anything like the same amount ut training a:ui ability is so ill-paid So other calling that is presumed to i?qu(re a considerable mental disci pline and development is held in such luw regard or is so little supported by public admiration. No other learned calling except U:e ministry is pursued under conditions that involve so much humiliation, and the minister's trials with his vestrymen or trustees are somewhat amelierated by the fact that in very many ca?es he is free to take an appeal over their heads, whereas the local board ?1 education is gener ally a supreme court for the teacher The** are ivl Hatteriug things to say of a nx,.!v. 'hM has been declar ing for a hundr?d years that its hope lay iu public education. But they are true. Just now ihv. teacher is in an ex ceptionally unpleasant situation. His or her cost of living has gone balloon ing. like everybody else's. Hut on the wiiole there tbeen only a feeble rcsgon e on Hie other side of the led jer. Ti e result is depletion of the pro fession. Under "present conditions es pecially?whtti-. n-.v.rlv every other field ( of activity is bidding eagerly for la-' bor of nearly every sort?teaching looks less attractive ttar. ever. The less attractive it looks the more inferior the teaching force will be come? Inevitably.

The school committeemen will please not forget that tho school property is in their care. See to it during vacation that the doors and windows are kopt locked.

Loan Your Money to Uncle Sam or Give it to Kaiser? WHICH? The government of the United States asks every American citizen to? subscribe for War Saving Stamps aud Liberty loan bonds. The money is; merely loaned to the government and will be used to free the United States and the rest of the world from the grasping greed of the German imperial government. Every dollar loaned to the government will be repaid with interest! ^? So much for what you can do for Uncle Sam now. If you do not lend of your money and this war is lost, this will happen to you: (Copy of German Notice published). ."Notice to the People: (about $130,000) is Imposed upon the commune of LunevUleC^T^MBBtttjJ^^^hat time in the hands of the German ' conquerors) .

"If the commune" does not punctually obey the order to pay the sum of 6:-0.000 francs, all property that can be levied upon will be seized. r?-* "In casq of non-payment, visits from house to house will be made and 'all t lie inhabitants will be searched. If anyone knowingly has concealed money or lias attempted to hold back his goods from the seizure by the mili tary authorities, or if anyone attempts to leave the city, he will be shot. "Henamenil, Sept. 3. 1914. "The General In Chief, "VOX FASBENDER." I Thai's how the kaisy collects from a conquered people. And are you laborWg under the deluson that the warlords of Germany do not hope to conquer and oppress the people of the United States? If you so believe, read these words from the pens and mouths of the kaiser's band of military slavemasters: "The most dangerous foe of Germany in this generation will prove to be the United States."?Dr. Otto Hotsch. in the Alldeutsche Blatter. "As a matter of fact, Germany is the only great power which is in a po sition to conquer the United States."?Freiherr von Edelshelm. . "The American people will be conquered by the victorious German. spirit, so that it will represent an enormous German empire."?Robert Thiem, in The AlldQUtsche Blatter. ? ? \ ?, "It is the duty of everyone to see that the future language spoken in America shall be German."?Hubbe-Schletden. 'The German? seem marked by their talents and by their achievements to be the teachers and the intellectual, economic and political leaders of the American peoples."?Professor Johannes Unold. "Not only North America but the whole of America must, become the bulwark of Germanic kultur, perhaps the stongest fortress of the Germanic aces."?Klaus Wagner. v "Some months after we finish our work in Europe we will take New York and^ probably Washington and hold them for some time. We propose to take^i bITTIbn or more dollars from New York and other places."?Count von Goetzen, German military attache and personal friend of the kaiser. "America had better look out after this war."?Wilhelm Hohenzollern. despot of the Teutonic peoples. "We are keeping books on you Americans. It's a long account and we haven't missed any details. Rest assured that that account will be present? i \ ed to you some day for settlemnt."?Major Liebster to American Consul A. Curtis Roth. Now. can any American have any further doubt as to the kaiser's de- ! signs. or to the methods of collection he employs? Having thus proved beyond the possibility of a doubt that the kaiser is bent upon the conquest of America if he can achieve it. and that he col lects the last cent of tribute at the point of the bayonet, is there one single reason why any American should not offer to loan his dollars to Uncle Sam? If we Americans refuse to loan our dollars to our own government now. you can rest assured that we will give them to the kaiser, if our boys over there are defeated. And defeated they will be if they are not backed up by our money and the food, ammunition, ships and service our dollars will buy. It's all very simple. You lend today, or you pay tomorrow?pay Wil hejm Hohenzollern. the enslaver of free nations and free peoples. Buy your bond, and another if you can. and still another, if you are able, even though you mu.?t save and sacrifice to do it. YouH do more than "save and sacrifice" if the kaiser wins.
