COUNTY DEMOCRACY HARMONIOUS The democrats of Cattaraugua county, inspired by the bright prospects for national and state victories at the polls next fall, are planning to cooperate in a vigorous campaign.

When the Democratic County Committee met yesterday at Ellicottville, there was every evidence of harmony and a splendid determination to work shoulder to shoulder in the coming campaign. This harmonious feeling is worth noting especially as there still exists among the county republicans the old time split with two big bosses and two factions pulling against each other- Reconciliation so far as therefore, to argue that the country deserve a good deal of attention. But the little red school house isn't what It has sometimes been cracked up to be, if we are to the word of the educational experts. It isn't doing its work, for it is declared that the rural schools are far below the standards set for the country as a whole. Teachers' College of New York having examined the situation, finds that the country child is not getting a square deal.

It finds that the country school house is not only unsanitary but often indecent. expenditures for educating the country child is about one-third the sum expended for city children. Country children in the popular mind are supposed to be models of health, but the educators of New York say that the health and vitality of country children have been found distinctly inferior to that of city children. And then there are many back districts in the Nation which have problems of illiteracy which are deplorable, and which require "Americanization" even more than in the cities. The 11,000,000 of country children are taught by 300,000 teachers, less than three percent of whom are normal school graduates.

A half have no professional training, and two- thirds have not completed high school. Low pay to teachers has resulted in the closing of 36,000 schools throughout the country. Perhaps the picture is somewhat overdrawn nevertheless, there is little doubt but that there are many country schools which are looked up on as unnecessary evils to be managed with the least possible expenditure, and this in districts that have many a barn privately owned and more costly and than the school house supported by the wealth of the both the district and the State--and in the barn there labors a hired man receiving a wage far in excess of that paid to the B-n't Hide Them With a Veil: Re- Them With Othine--Double Stfentrth This preparation for the removal of freckles is usually so successful In removing freckles and giving a clear, beautiful complexion that it is sold under guarantee to refund the money if it fails.

WHY EXPORT COAL? Many coal men say that the shortage of coal and the high prices charged are due mainly to the exportation of coal in vast quantities.

The lack of cars has been serious, percent profit. "Yes, everybody selling Ice-cream sodas is making.money," says a representative of the American Soda Fountain Company. "Sure, the cost of living is going up," testifies a former bartender who now functions at a "soda grill." He adds these illuminating words: "In the old days father could send the can to the corner once or twice during the evening, and have a social time with some friends on the front porch, for the price of two rounds of beer- And 25 cents for a quart of ice-cream would keep the family happy. Today the ice-cream costs more than the beer and cream together did in those days." It is a common observation that soda fountain beverages are far more expensive than bar-room drinks used to be. Maybe it is all right.

Maybe the soda fountains are not profiteering any more than other lines of business. But an impression seems to be developing that most of them are overdoing the thing Many "kicks" are heard, and in soda places three is said to be a marked falling off in the soda fountain trade. Such problems generally adjust themselves sooner or later. The chief of police at Wilmington, N. has served notice on the members of bis department that they must attend church services more regularly.

Half the force is to be let off every Sunday for this purpose. The men may attend either morning or evening service, according to their preference, but apparently they must do one-or the other, or incur their chief's displeasure. Policemen are not usually thought of in connection with churches. And yet, with all their dereliction in regard to church attendance, it is possible that they are no more negligent about it than other people. In fact in cities where the old holding mines in many coal fields I raduion stm holds and the down to about half-capacity, when they ought to be doing their best; but somehow, there have been enough forco up Qf men, they will probably be found ships with coal for Europe Former-, Morevover, the high prices abroad la ed havoc the two county G.

But "cops" are not the only ones who could be improved by such a process. If private i citizens went to church a little more regularly, the police would have less to do. ly this country exported coal.

The resolutions of approval and fealty as read and approved at the meeting of the Democratic County Committee, which said resolutions praised the splendid administrations of President Wilson and Governor Smith and fully endorsed the national democratic platform, show pean bids to fix the price of so vital a commodity, when it can be sold far more cheaply in this country and yet pay operators and dealers a fair profit? Why not an embargo on coal exports for two or three months, at least? It is reported that the government's income for the past year has exceeded its expenditures. That's where UncK Sam has it on most private citizens.

Still, if the private citizen had the power to make people pay him whatever he liked, he might make both ends meet, too. in Dansville, July latest and strangest auto enthusiasts is a large grey dove which recently made its apearance in the state road leading from the Hyland house to the Power Specialty Co. Its Alice looked at me sympathetically. I knew that she was convinced, as I was, but to clinch matters I opened my pocketbook and read her a note from Elizabeth Moreland, which had evidently been sent me in mistake for one she had intended to send John. "You see, she wrote instead of on the envelope," I pointed out.

The expression of curiosity on Alice's face turned to disgust as she read the first sentence in this letter I knew it by -heart, and was repeating the words to myself as I saw Alice glance along the page. "Do you still love ine? I presume every woman asks that question of her lover, whether she gives herself inside or outside the pale of marriage, and so I am asking it of you, dear heart, this morning--do you.still love me? For whatever you may think, John I have always loved you, every thought I have ever had in the world has been of you and for you and-If one should praise my face, dear heart The words were pleasant to my ear; I closely guard each vaunted charm, dear heart In hope that you will sometimes hear And understand; I would be beautiful-- To you If one should say my form dear heart, Were cast in nature's fairest mold, The pleasing lie I would not scorn, dear heart, If he told you the fable bold, For know, sweetheart, I would be graced itself-To you. If one should think my eyes, dear heart, Were wells of passion deep and wide. His thoughts as wisdom I would prize, dear heart, If you but quenched your thirst beside. Desire is sweet; drink from the cup I hold- To you.

If one should give my mind, dear heart, Some extra merit not its due Excuse for him I'd try to find, dear heart, If you thought what he said were true Oh, lover mine, have I been all in all-- To you? "She never composed that poem." said Alice viciously. "Does it make any difference whether she did or not?" I asked. "What are you going to do now?" was Alice's question. "I don't know; I don't know. I will have think." "I am going to send for John and I am going to tell him just exactly what I think of him." "Please don't do it, Alice.

It is a thing that I and I can only work out." Cruel to Go Away "But I hate to leave you, dear. It seems so cruel to go away and leave you all alone when you are feeling this way. And to think that you have had this note with you all this time and have spoken to Elizabeth Moreland and made no reference to it." "Whatever else she may be, Alice I know one thing--Elizabeth Moreland loves John Gordon. Loves him better perhaps, tha nl do, and I sometimes think I am wrong in not letting her have him if. she wants him.

I think, my dear, I am going to ask him if he wants her more than he wants me. And upon his answer will depend what I shall do." "Well, dear, I cannot do anything for you and so I must go home." "You will forgive me if I say that I shall be happier alone." Alice put her arms about me, but she did not attempt to kiss me. She understood that I could not bear even her caresses at such a moment. Then she slipped out of the room just as John came in. "Well, what did you buy?" he asked.

"I didn't buy anything." "What was the matter?" "I didn't go." "It doesn't seem to me, Katherine, that you have any regard for how the bills at this hotel are piling up. You promised me this morning that you would get into the new house as soon as possible. But you are dawdling along here in a fashion I cannot comprehend." "Perhaps you will be able to do so when you read this telegram." I was surprised at my own coolness. I seemed to be acting a part, and I had no interest in it beyond its effect upon my audience, even when John exclaimed, "I wish Goodwin would attend to his own business." I said nothing. Even when I felt his eyes upon me, I did not raise mine.

I knew that John was surprised that I took it so calmy. Gives an Ugly laugh He gave an ugly laugh, as he said, "Oh, I see, you are not particularly worried, are you? You still have the house on your hands." "I shall not accept it. I do not understand how you could have sold it without my knowledge." "Well, you gave me power of attorney over all your affairs, didn't you? I needed the money to make the next payment on th enew house. I knew that you really did not want the old one down there in the country, but I thought you would make a fuss over selling it for some sentimental reason, and I determined to wait to tell you about it until we were thoroughly installed in the new home." He stopped, waiting for me to say something. "Why.

don't you speak?" he asked, after a silence. I looked him full in the face and said, "All right, I will speak."

HOW ABOUT THE COUNTRY SCHOOLS? The rural school has been given a good deal of attention in the late years, particularly in connection with the shortage of teachers. According those who are interested in school matters, the country schools are in need of help. It is set forth that more than half of.

refreshment retailed for a little as 10 cents. The usual price in that city was 17 cents, but in pretentious places it rose as high as 28 cents. For the fancy "dips" or "sundaes" and other esoteric soda- fountain concoctions, of course the price runs far beyond that limit. The same newspaper estimates that the actual cost of the ingredients of the ice-cream soda, plus the cost of labor and the overhead expense, is about eight cents.

E. Rottsted 219 N. Union Si. I'M WELL! You WELL? PREVENTS DISEASE Now that Tinker Bob was satisfied that all was well as far as the Day of Frolic was concerned, he turned in to rest till the morning should come. His friend, Soloman Sun, had promised to be out all day in order to make the day a success.

Everyone had been told--even to Red Ant and his family. In fact, Chief Porky had not slept since the moment he had told the King a falsehood. He even went about disturbing the rest of the dwellers when they were asleep, in order that he might make good his word before the great day arrived. Early in the morning, before Mr. Sun was up, there was a great chatter in the tree-tops.

The feathered creatures were all awake preparing for the occasion. I do believe that Jerry the Jay stayed awake half the night in order to be the first one to announce the day. At least Bobby Owl said that he heard Jerry talk at different times all night. Of course Bobby ought to know, for he stays awake every night to g'uard the Forest. But he promised to stay awake all day when the Great Day arrived.

Red Wing the Black-bird came along early. He said he was going to the river to find a suitable place for his flock to perch for the day.

Rabbit and all the others. They were going to the river to find a place in the briar patch where they would not be disturbed. Jack the Wood Rat came out of the King's palace before the King was up, carrying a small ear of corn under his arm. "What does all this mean?" cried Mr. Robin.

"You don't suppose I am going to stand around all day without something to eat do you?" returned Jack as he started off with his corn. The birds all at once began to chatter and laugh. It was a funny sight to see Jack the Wood Rabbit walking on his hind feet carrying an ear of corn as large as himeslf. But on he went, laugh or no laugh. Suddenly there was silence in the creature creeping along on the ground.

In the dim twilight of the morning it was hard to distinguish the creatures of the Forest. "Who are you?" cried one of the feathered flock excitedly. "It doesn't make any difference who I am, I'll be there with the others." The voice that made this reply was not recognized. This was not pleasing at all to Jerry, 'so he ventured down to the lowest limb of the tree that he might see who this saucy fellow might be. "Thief! Thief! I know who you are, you can't fool me! You're Mr.

Weasel the Great. You'd like to catch a bird for your dinner, wouldn't you?" Mr. Weasel said not a word, but hurried off to the river. Tomorrow--Tinker Bob Called to River La-Tite Asphalt Shingles The simplest and most economical shingle on the market. Surfaced with natural slate.
