THIS week brings to Jti< hn;.,i j ri()IJ|l
of mon and women wIk-m t.
to the State's welfare and adv?
lures Ihem of a thoroughly h. -Iv . ^,p.
IJon. The service they have j- .(jf. .t|1,
jpntinue to render Is known, f j(
may be comprehended at all, ,.Vf.ry'
otightful Virginian; to.attempt t., , .j.
mate Its extent is, of course, to assay the
?impossible. What the teachers of Virginia
are doing to raise the cultural nnd spiritual
tone of the State, to Inv more and more
firmly the foundations of ever)* worthy or
desirable achievement, is clearly beyond the
calculations of the wisest.
During the period of their annual feath
ering here, they will devote much of their
attention to considering tho mean?, of rais
ing the standards of their own profession.
Though they have accomplished much --and
that under conditions far from the ideal
thor?> is among them nothing of com
placency or self-satisfaction. Consecrated
to the splendid form of service fur which
their profession stands, they strive always
with a loyalty and real of the most inspir
ing dogr** to make their consecration more
fruitful. Our debt to them may at best be
paid inadequately. In substantial terms,
it might be paid appreciably more gener
ously than at present; certainly, in terms
of moral support and humble acknowledg
ment, each of us must pay without stint.
I/ot It Come?nn<l Soon
Or all the third party talk we have heard
in recent months, none is more appeal
ing. from ail points of view, than that en
gaged in by those devoted followers of
William Randolph Hearst who propose that
this eminent citizen set himself at the head
of a new political organization and invite
into its ranks all "disaffected" elements
throughout the country.
This is a capital idea and Mr. Hearst i;
an id "a 1 man to exemplify Jt. He has
long boon a law unto himself, and it is
both fit and proper that lie should now
become a party unto himself. Me demon
strated long ago that there was no room
for him in the Democratic fold. The old
party crowd for some mysterious reason
has refused to allow Mr. Hearst to dictate its
policies or to intimidate it with his threats,
and the New Yorker found almost as lone
ago that he could not keep company with
Ttepublicans. He might go over to their
standard for a single campaign, but Repub
licans, curiously enough, do not wholly rn
Joy association with him. They are in
clined to be apologetic about it.
Chief sponsors for the Hearst party en
terprise seem to be Mayor John F. Dylan,
of New York, and Mayor Thompson, of
Chicago, whoso two hearts beat as one
upon most matters of political concern.
These gentlemen met a few days ago at
French l.i^k Springs. Thev talked. They
compared notes. They discovered that each
was beholden deeply to Mr. Hearst, without
whose newspapers, neither would be able to
hold his own at homo. They agreed that
Mr. Hearst was a great man. in addition to
being an enlightened and patriotic editor.
Also these gentlemen realized that Mr.
Hearst was a political outcast. Ho has
b*en disowned by the Democratic party and
disavowed by thn Republican party. He
hap not been taken Into camp hv the So
cialists or the Communists or the rrohihi
ttonists. That leaves him a man without a
party, a man, withal, who wants to be and
fully expects to 're President of the United j
States, one of these days.
How to assist Mr. Hearst in achieving
this distinction was the question. After
much surveying of the situation it was
agreed that Mr. Hearst ought to have a
party of his own?not a mere Independence
League, of other days?but a real, honest
to-goodness party, with a platform, with a
standard, with a war chest, with a lot of
newspaper organs. at the very outset and
with all the other odds and ends that go
to make up a political organization in the
T'lifted States.
It was decided, moreover, by the leading
American Mayors "in Congress assembled"
first to give due notice to the Democrats
that Hearst must be reinstated as a Demo
crat in good standing, or a third party would
?he set up without delay. Not only must
Mr. Hearst be taken back, according to
published stories of the Mayors' conclave,
but lie must be made the Democratic can
didate for tho presidency at the next na
tional convention. Nothing short of that
will satisfy.
We hope the Democratic chieftains will
reject this tender; that they will not be
swept off their feet by so tempting a pro
posal. and that they will make such sacrl
(ices as may be necessary, in order that
the country may rejoice in the formation of
; Hearst party. To deny us the happiness
of such a consummation would be cruel.
And to deny Mr. Hearst a presidential nomi
nation of some sort, would be positively in
human
incidentally and quite seriously, we
would welcome a Hearst party if it would
successfully segregate all the questionable
rlfinents in this country to which Mr.
Hearst has been making his appeals since
1!iI4.
The l/Cgion and Illiteracy
1"*KSTS to which America's potential
lighting strength was subjected, in the
I course of which 4.('00,not) men were drawn
into the military service, disclosed astound
| ing information as to the amount of il
literacy in this country. Census reports
I en illiteracy were found to be misleading,
i Census takers are obliged to accept the
j citizen's word as to whether he is able
| t read or write. If a citizen ha? attended
j school at all. he is rated i?y the Census
| Hureaii as literate.
i The tests made in the army and navy
i revealed that 25 per cent of the men of
I military age could lint read and write slm
| |de English. These men were of an age
which permitted them the benefits of com
pulsory education laws in nearly every
State. These tests revealed the fact that
file compulsory educational laws wet" more
I honored in the breach than in the observ
I ance. Tho revelation may serve to increase
sentiment favorable to tlie stricter enforce
ment of these statutes in the future.
Recognizing the condition, the American
i J.cgion ha- out to eliminate illiteracy
in this country by 1!?L'7. It is ;< lug tnsk to
be comprehended within a four years'
period. C.arland \\\ i'owell. chief of the
legion's Americanism commission. has
shown however, that this can tie done by
peisonal work on tho part of members of
the legion and the legion iiuili.irv, with
the help of other public-spirited Americans
who will take the time to do their share
of the work, lie has proposed that legion
members shall make it their business to find
an illiterate ;.nd teach him to read and
write. This is a large order, hilt Mr. tlar
lnnd has a considerable organization to
direct to the end desired, and individual
work with the proper amount of enthusiasm
can accomplish wonders. What a great
people we would bo with Illiteracy wholly
eliminated from the country!

Again, as Mr. Schoene says, the cotton area

Sheriff Sydnor, who serves public notice
that intoxicated persons driving reckless

bo dealt with to the law's limit, need not
tear that his county Is much worse than
others. Similar complaints are made in
all parts of the country. He will receive
nil the public sympathy and support he
needs in his efforts to apprehend and con

occupants of other vehicles and of pedes

charge of his duties makes his statements

Every person who Is responsible for an a>i

caught well prepared to succor the Injured
along the road The occasion described was
my first disgraceful failure, and was due to
? chinge e.' cars and inexcusable procrastina
tion about changing t h ? first-aid outfit.
Here is a list 9>1 articles which I think ,
sufficient to carry in an emergency or first
aid kit.
1. A strong vial of tincture of iodlr.e.
2. tine ounce of aromatic spirits of ammonia.
S. fine ounce pf flexible collodlop.
4 Onti or two tubes of sterile pertrolatum
(vaseline^.
5 Two-ounce or four-ounce carton of ab

gauze in envelopes.

they will go In an overcoat pocket or n pocket

I.et me suggest briefly what the ite ns are
for Swab every fresh wound once with tine- j
lure of Iodine, by using a wisp of cotton
wrapped on a toothpick or stick. From half
to one trnspoonful of aromatic spirits of am
monia, in a little colli water, may be given
a quick stimulant in fainting or shock, if
I he Individual can swallow. thi> may bo re
peated every five or t'ti minutes. The col
lodion makes an impervioii.. protective dress
ing for any small cm or wound, if the surface j
is perfectly dry when the collodion is painted
r.n. The petrolatym keeps gauze from stick- :
ing to a raw wound, and is preferable to any j
ointment or salve on a wound. The cotton
should never be applied next to the wound,
hut as a protective padding or coverloe over
gauze. a fold of sterile gauze inay be slipped
from an envelope directly on a wound with
out touching either gauze or wound with
fingers or other unslerlllzed object. Ad
hesive plaster strips, applied to clean^ dry
skin, will serve to draw together open wounds,
and also to hold a dressing on a wound w lien
bandaging is difficult.
