SCHOOL ELECTION OCTOBER 8.
Marietta will be called on October
8 to vote on the question of levying
an extra 25 cents on the hundred
dollars for the support of her schools.
The rate of taxation now is $l.lO on
the hundred and an extra 25 cents
added will bring the rate up to $1.35.
Certainly if any cause can justly ask
additional taxes it is that for school
uses. Our teachers have toc long
been underpaid and our school facili
ties have too long suffered for inade
quate support. The present rate an
swered fairly well when prices of all
commodities were half what they are
now; but no longer will raise suffi
cient funds for educating our child
ren. 4
In no other one item are so many
people interested as ingthe proper
school conditions. Few families fail
tc be immeliately concerned in the
education of one or more children
and all are indirectly so concerned.
In the excitement incident tc the
election for governor on October 6,
let us not forget that we are immed
iaély and primarily interested in
that two days later for keeping Mari
etta’s schools on the very highest
plane possible. Make up ycur mind
now to be on hand and vote for the
children’s interests.
USE YOUR BANK. /
In these progressive times there
are not many farmers who do not
make some use of the bank. But it
is the exceptional and usually the
most successful farmer who makes
the full use of it. All farm business,
except minor matters where small
change only is needed, should be han
dled through the banks; but it is not
enough to know that our cancelled
checks are receipts for all our bills,
and t}xat we are accumulating a sur
plus which is safely deposited in the
bank. One of the great troubles
with Southern agriculture is that
most of our farm operations have
been under-financed. We should
make use of the bank to borrow mon
ey just as often as borrowed money
can be made to yield a profit to the
farm. If by borrowing money at 6
or 8 per cent we can make it return
10 per cent or more on the invest
ment, it is then a mistake not to bor
row the amount needed.
A great many farmers have a hor
ror of going in debt, but it is a mis
take to struggle along with meager
equipment, lack of fertilizer, lack of
good seed or lack of good breeding
stock rather than borrow. It takes
money to make money on the farm
as well as in other lines of business.
The farmer who can grow crops and
livestock and market them at a profit
need have no hesitancy in going to a
banker and explaining to him that he
wants money to enlarge his business.
He need have no fear that the banker
will not do his best to make the loan.
The bank is a business house. The
banker appreciates a good custcmer
just as does the merchant.
Let us learn to use money on the
farm, It is one of the best“hired
men” we can employ.—The Progres
sive Farmer.

American Red Cross Is Teaching
Hundreds of Thousands Life-
Saving Methods.
The purpose of instruction [n First
Aid to the injured offered by the Amer
ican Red Cross is to train men and
women to administer First Ald treats
ment promptly and intelligently when
emergencies demand it." First Aid
treatment is not intended to take the
place of a physician's service. A sur
geon should always be summoneed as
A precautionary measure where therq
is an injury of any consequence, but
when one cannot be secured a few min,
utes’ delay may mean a fatality. lln
such a case a person trainel In First
Aid is invaluable not oniy to the ins
dividual, but through him to the com
munity in which he lives,
There is perhaps no way of’ ascer
taining the number of deaths or seri
ous disablements which result from
lack of proper safeguards or prompt
emergency treatment. It Is safe to as
sert they number thousands daily.
There can be no doubt that the appll
cation of First Ald metheods to each
case would immeasurably lighten the
country’s toll of suffering and death.
The dissemination of First Aid train
ing and information has already pro
duced a farreaching and beneficial in
fluence in the prevention of accidents
on railroads, in mines and in great in
dustrial concerns.
The benefit of a widespread know!-
edge of First Aid in the event of a
great disaster, such as a train wreck,
an explosion, an earthquike, etc, is
obvious. Laymen who have had First
Aid training can render efficient as
sistance. Many lives may depend upoh
such emergency care,
Red Cross First Ald work Includes
(1) the formation and conduct, through
Red Cross chapters, of classes for in
struction in accident prevention and
First Aid to the injured among men
‘and women in all communities and in
every industry; (2) the introduction of
courses of instruction in high schools
and colleges, 5
The Red Cross is prepared to supply
First Aid books and equipment at rea
sonable prices.
Every person In this country dble to
do so should, in his own interest, re
celve Red Cross IPirst Aid instruction.
Information about the course and in
struction classes may be had at the
nearest chapter headquarters.
RED CROSS EXTENDS
RELIEF TO POLAND
More than $5,p(N),000 has been spent
by the American Red Cross in aiding
the stricken people of Poland. The
organization has nursed the sick, fed
the starving, clothed the naked, shelter
ed the homeless, schooied the children
and cared for the orphans there, It has
conducted a relentless fight against
typbus, cholera and other terrible dis
eases. So today millions of men and
women in that resurrected nation
speag in grateful appreciation of “The
Greatest Mother in the World.”
Nearly 200 American Red Cross
workers are now‘engaged in relief ac
tivities in Poland. Four large relief
bases are In operation and eleven mo
bile unitg are in the field. During the
last twelve wonths this organization
was ldegely Ih#trumental In the re-es
tabHshment of a million refugees at a
cost for general relief of more than
$1,000,000. Last winter one-half mil
lion war orphans were aided material
ly, and since thén a serier of large or
phanages have been established to give
them permanent care,
But for American Red Cross aid, of
ficials of Poland declared recently, mil
lions of people in that country would
have perished of disease, exposure or
starvation the last eighteen months.
