Thursday, June 2, 1921 Patriotic indifference is being shown by the American people today, whereas a year ago the public seemed to have reached the zenith of idealistic patriotism. It is hard for us to believe that we are not the same people now we were a year or two years ago. Have we, like the snail, “drawn in our horns” and no longer have contact with interests outside ourselves? Recently our ambassador to England told Europe that we went to war with Germany because we were afraid not to fight. Two years ago the American people, would have been astounded by such in intrepretation of their motives and impulses that prompted them to action. Moreover, two years ago the European countries themselves would not have accepted as true such an interpretation, r but the peculiar psychology displayed by the American public since the war is basis enough for Europe to question our ideals. We have reacted from the tensions and anxieties of war days and our impulses of altruism have given way to indifference. Right is just as big and important today as it was a few short months ago, but we are no longer alert to express our concern. The size of the gathering in the church for the Decoration Day exercises compared with the crowd that overflowed the church for the services of last year is an indication of Whe state of mind into which we have submerged. The parade-that formed to march to the cemetery was less than one-third as long as the Decoration Day parade in Syracuse last year. There were as many people in town as usual, but they seemingly preferred to occupy their automobiles parked along the curb or to stand bunched on the side walks along the line of march. Too, the sun was just as hot for those who were watching the parade as it was for those who were marching. Simply, many wanted to have something done, but few wanted to do anything. o o—, . j Consolidation of schools is a question that will be s decided by the voters of Syracuse I and Turkey Creek township at a j special election to be held on ■ Saturday, July 2. *ln response to ; petitions the township trustee i and the town school board have i set the date and completed ar- I rangements . for simultaneous elections. The purpose of keeping the elections separate is to enable either unit to . reject the prq-1 posal. Even though the town- j

■ ship votes favorably on the ques- 1 tion, consolidation can not be I effected if the voters of the.' town reject it, or vice versa. A month remains for everyone ’ to give the matter full thought, 1 That it is a question for deep i concern should be apparent to | every, man and women voter. 1 The" educational system of our community is of vital importance to) our progress and the step that is" proposed is one that will " bring about a radical change. The law on which procedure is ; being taken delines the question i as it shall be voted upon at the i special election, limiting it to whether the schools of the town and township shall be consolidated. The question of whether the township pupils are to be transported from their homes into town or whether a central building is to be erected for them at some point outside the town can not be voted upon now. Apparently the majority of voters favor the erection .of a central building, where the early grades will be taught. In case' of consolidation the cost of a new building in the country would be borne jointly by town and township on the basis of assessed valuations. Likewise, any future improve-, ments in the Syracuse school building equipment would be borne jointly by the town and township. Tuition tax 1 would be laid on the basis of school enumerations. It is the duty of every voter to help'decide the question. O—- ———oOBITUARY • Alonzo L. Jordan was born at Madison, Indiana, October 3, 1845. He was a son lof Perry J. and Cassie Jordan.
