"Your face Is quite familiar," I murniar, rtu-ougn ai iiat; your name in Hicks or Hilller, or Home blamed thing like that." All day I'm guess iag, gacNNinff, who this or that one is, aad find it most dis tressing, and ofte nsigh, "Gee whix." It fills me with drjec tioa that friends come from afar, and I've no reroflera'on of who the dace they are. Bat I hare kaowa a million, ayid they're all. coming her; and now It's Jane or Lillian, and now It's Vere de Vere. They all seem fond of larking, and they hare bat one game; they an come np remarking, "Ton cannot guess my aame!" And that is why I'm 4dder than any mourner, far;; it stingeth like an adder, this guessiag alio yon are. THE r.VDKKI'Alb TKACHERH. The Progressive Farmer, of Ra ieigh. says: Ttirre is not much hope for developing a really satisfactory rural civilization in our lime unless we actually double tench era and preachers' salaries. What the Raleigh paper says ot the rural sections ran Just as easily he api'lled to the cities and town where the cause of education in going to Buffer this year as never before because of a shortage of trained and competent teacher. And the Progressive Farmer lilts the nail squarely on the head when It warn that present conditions are not 4 be bettered materially until we rea4ie the Inevitable and double th salaries of onr school teachers. Doable is a good word. That ix Just what will have to be done. Trained aad able school teachers art no longer to be had for such pit- tanceBaa they recelred before the war. eU? i .Therefore, school authorities must do either ena f two things, They must, eoitinue . to pay . to , school teachers salaries oa which it Is well cigh lmpowlbje (to..

No one ci Bad it ia his heart to blame then No matter how mach they may lov the work of teaching, they see an opportunity to better themselves, set something of a future ahead, unit they are quick to grasp It. The? would not be wide-awake American II they failed to do this. There is a great shortage of teach ers in the country (hi year. It cun be attributed directly to the poor aluries. There will be an een greater dearth next year and a fai greater one in 1921 if the power that be do not take it on themselves to see that the school teacher If given his does. THE PI(;iE OK. IMH-SHKVISM A mental epidemic is passing around the world which is more dangerous than Inflnenia or even the war itself. Our nearest neighbor, even onr own famir.es, may have an attack which will be mild or seven according to on own mental atti tude. We surprised oarelves Our patriotism during tbe war Wf maintained our courage during ihr epidemic of Influent, whir, rjvtged many communities like the Black Death of old. We still have net to kerp cool. ffr the w.ek of th. world lias no' k'lii cleared ii. BoUHevism which s p.iiut aronnf the or A like an epidem' if un inversion cf dentorac;- Tlios. who are susceptible do not knoa that they are seeing things upsidt down. We do not argue with a sicl man. He needs kindness and friend ly as well as medical attention Bolshevism is a mental inversion and so long as it does not become violent It can be treated with kind neas better than with a club. Democracy guarantees to ever, man the right to work and to carp on fair exchange and intercourse with his fellow men. Bolshevism comes from autocratic Russia anu Germany .and seeks to dictate t( everyone by autocratic power en forced by a mysterious "soviet" oi committee. It Ignores all the indi vidual rights which our government represents. Our forefathers recognized no classes when they wrote our na tional constitution. They did not establish u government to be man aged by various classes of butchers bakers, candlestick makers, slave owners, bankers or other men divid ed and organized by occupations oi Inheritance. Europe has been gov erned by classes for many centuries organized In guilds, privileged or ders and other societies. The fath ers of our country did not want th class ftyBtera in America. The fought a long war to get free of it. Tbey established a government wherr all the people are free and enjoy equal rights. Bolshevism seeks to organize the people into classes, with the "prole tariat" In supreme control through a "soviet" (committee or council) which represents all the classes thai are privileged to share In the gov ernment. Each class dictates how many hours It shall work and bow much pay it shall receive. The right of exchange is the foundation ot de mocracy, but bolshevlsm seeks first of all to destroy this right by mak ing money so cheap I. loses Us value. As an example ot modified bolshe vlsm we have the men employed on ships who carry our produce to the world, more than 10 per cent,fot them aro aliens, owing, their alle giance to foreign countries, but they want to dictate everything pertain ing to transportation by aeav. ,Tbey 4 eot want congress to , wise si aavlgatlon laws, so the ; American people c tn wn ana operate ship and compete with tbe world,-because' they are'. afraid -.the revised .laws might sot eontlnae certain privileges which alien now bold... .They have there jfore dictated to our authorities ot fWa.hinrion th.it thero mu't be tm revision of onr lawn.' If w r.n t each class to dieUttv ia this Banner to the rest of ns, we start back wards oa the highway of confusion towards tbe Dark Ages, We must have patieaee aad be careful to eee everything right aide up with our own eyes until this epi demic has passed. Our system of government has created the greatest nation snd the most prosperous peo ple that the world has ever known. The working man in this country en joys more of the comforts of life, than princes coaid command under the class system of the Dark Ages. ye want to know where we are going before we make 'it ehange. -IN THE DAY'S NEWS' The Right Hon.
