DRESS SHOES
Lots of people have trouble in
getting a light-weight shoe that
they can wear. You know Leo.
Well, he is the toughest man in
Seward to fit to a shoe. Last
week he came in and “had a
look" at our new line and he
went for two pair. They must
have been good, for now he
walks like Alex Monroe.
Rubbers to Fit All Shoes
Pretty soon we will be having
rain and slush and then you will
need a good pair of rubbers, for.
honestly, I don’t believe that
there has ever been a reallv
truly water-proof shoe made.
GET A “STRAIGHT LINE."
That’s the rubber to tie to,
and when you want a pair—

SCHOOLS MUST
KEEP UP THEIR
OLD STANDARD

—
WASHINGTON, 1). C., Sept. 11, (Hy
Mail via Anchorage).—With the re
sumption of schools in all parts of the ,
United States this month, the federal
government lays emphasis on the ne
cessity of maintaining the standards
of both attendance and class work. At
tention to these matters is called by
a statement issued today by Philan
der P. Claxton, United States com
misioner of Education.
“During the present school year and
while the war continues, there will be
many unusual temptations for parents
and guardians of children to keep their
children out of school, and there will
be many difficulties in the way ot'
maintaining schools at their full
pleasure of efficiency,” says the com
missioner.
“On the other hand, it is of the very
greatest importance that the efficiency
of the schools shall be maintained in
every way and there shall he no fall
ing ofT in attendance. This is neces
sary both for the present defense of
the country and for the welfare and
safety when the war is over.
“While we are fighting for the
maintenance of democracy we must do
everything possible to make the de
mocracy strong and efficient in every
way. This will depend on the schools
more than on any other one agency,
and I am, therefore, taking the liberty
of suggesting to all parent-teacher as
sociations and other similar organiza
tions that they immediately use all
of their influence in this direction.
“Of course each association will
know of what is best to do for its par
iticular school and community.”
