A Poor Theory
Said old Bill Shiftless: "The world owes me a
living. Why should I worry?"
And old Bill managed to get along on that theory
— but such a life! Down at the heel, hand to
month, slipshod, poverty-stricken, without hope,
without ambition, without comfort. What a price
to pay for laziness and incompetence! You all
know some "Bill Shiftless" who is no earthly
good except as a horrible example. The world
may owe us a living, but if a decent living is de-
sired, one must work and save and keep the sav-
ings in a reliable Bank.

The decrease is largely due to
the shrinkage in the value of

according to Mattingly.

Public Schools to Open
Monday, September Fourth
The Public Schools will open
Monday, Sept. 4th, for enroll-
ment. Regular classes will be
held Tuesday,
All grade pupils who were reg-
ularly promoted in our school
last year may get their books
before that time if they care to
avoid the usual rush at the book
store. Mr. Slack will have book
lists so there need be no mistakes.
Those who were not regularly
promoted, and those entering
from other schools, also High
School students please do not get
your books until you have been
lassified.
Se.'enth and Eighth Grade pu
pil who live west of the Santa
Fe track will enroll at the west
side school this year, all other
places will be the same as usual.
All children who will be six
years before January 1st, may
enroll now. There will be no
beginning clash at the middle of
the year No one will be en-
rolled as a beginner later than
November 1st, so be sure and
enroll beginners this fall, if they
will be six by Jan. 1st.
Pupils who have just moved
into the district and were not
regularly promoted may see me
j for classification at the High
} School building, Friday, Sept.
1st. Also all graduates and oth-
j er High School students who
J want a transcrip of their credits
I before the Normal begins may

! side of this district will be
I charged the following tuition:
j Grade pupils $5.00 and High,
j School students $7.00 per month
This does NOT include High
| School students who have been
' transferred by the county super-
intendent. Parents of tuition
| pupils, please make arrange-
j ments for tuition at the begin-
' ning of school.
The building situation is tem-
porarily relieved. The Baptist
people have rented us the two
east basement rooms for High
j School classes, and the audito-
[ rium for chapel exercises. The
| two extra grades will be put in
one room at the west side. An
] arrangement that will enable us
| to start at least, and we trust
[ will suffice for the entire year.
j In spite of the crowded condi-
I tions, prospects are for the best
j school Edmond has ever had.
j An exceptionally strong teaching
I force has been secured, which
[includes one extra grade teacher
and two extra High School teach-
ers. This gives us for the first
time, sufficient teaching force in
the High School and every teach-
er in both grades and High School
are experienced teachers. Ar-
rangements have been made to
change the study hall, library,
domestic science room and phys-
ics labratory which will make all
these much better. All supplies
have been ordered; all repair
work i s being done, so that
everything will be ready for the
opening September 4th.
