the only Austin reaction was
the comment of a newspaper-

The fact that a Texas citizen
puts on a uniform to fight for
his country in time of war
should not bar him from voting.
The man who is fighting for
your rights and mine surely has
as much right to vote as you and
I do. The man who is offering
his blood and his life to pre-
serve our government certainly
is entitled to a voice in run-
ning that government.

Over in Leonard recently 1
mePSchool Supt. W. D. George,
a remarkably practical and
energetic man. He runs the
school system and that would be
enough to keep almost anybody
busy—but the morning this ob-
server was in Leonard, Supt.
George had lost some workers
so he got up early and built
eight fires in the school build- j
ings and then he got behind the
steering wheel and drove one
of the school buses on its
rounds.
And how do you suppose ho
spent last summer? He went up
to one of the big war plants and
got a job of hard work—he did
not tell anybody around him
that he was a school' superin-
tendent, either; he just pitched
in and did his part of the good,
hard, physical labor.
As long as we have men in
this country who lay aside dig
nity when there Is a necessary
job to do and do it, the future
of America is safe. Supt. George
is typical of the school teachers
of Texas who love their work
and are sticking to it because it
needs to be done—we must
train the next generation of citi-
zens. Thousands of school teach-
ers have turned down the
chance for jobs with shorter
hours and easier work and more
pay, because they want to see
to it that the liberties won by
the bravery of our soldiers on
the battlefield are placed in the
keeping of trained hands and
.cultivated minds, and so will be
preserved.
