In nl6 paper thlS week Uncle Ehauncey
makes a wild stagger in defense OF llis
part In putting onto this town a school
building utterly untitled for the purpose
intended. It Is all very well to shy of
to irrelevant matters anl talk about
changed conditions meaning alarger
attendance than ono year ago, There
ars no conditions existing which ought

knowing enough 10 ponnd sand Intoa

Instead Of there being an enrolment Of
about 80, as stated By him. when lie drew
the plans, tho average was 100. Even
when there was no inducement to send
child to school in the Temporary quarters
at the engine house and M. E. church,
after the burning Of the old building
the files Of the GRAPHIC show an enroll
ment exceeding 100.
The facts are that 1t was not only the
Intention of the board to provide for a

writer so. and that 1t was the intention
to construct a building to handle COM
fortably 150 pupils, which would repre-
sent an enrolment approximating l75.
It was not till it was finished and the
seats in that Uncle Channcey and the
board discovered the mistake In estimat-
Ing floor space. It was blunder, pure
and simple, and one that would have
been discovered had the board acted upon
our suggestion and expended IS or $40
In consulting an architect.
II is useless to deny the fact that the
present building will not seat comfort
ably one pupil more than was enrolled
during the term previous 10 its construc-

1T go out that tha: was the intention,
then 1t shows greater iiicompetency than
yet charged or suggested. Had the
building been constructed to seat $50 |
pupils 1t would be more than ample for
any enrolment yet made; and tnat this
was not done may be attributed to Uncle
ChannceY Maynard. chief cook-and bot
tle-washer and adviser of the board. In
stead Of having the children nicely quar-
tered under one roof and three teachers,
$50 must be paid for rent, extra fuel pro
yided, more than likely another teacher,
aud worse than all, large number Of
young children located elsewhere and
deprived Of the comforts and belongings
of a new building.
Uncle Chauncey says that the building
was constructed with the idea Of raising
the roof for another story, if need be. 1t
would be cheaper to turn it upside down
and quarter the children in the roof: |
that's the principal part of the structure.

Secretary Wait Of the Democratic State
Press association remarks, rather im-
patiently, that sits little surprising
how careless some of the newspaper pub
fishers Of this state are. Not long ago
an official copy of the ticket was mailed
from this Office to each OF the fusion
papers In the state, accompanied with
the suggestion that the ticket be correct
ed correspond with 1t, as no two papers
in the state have the names Of the candi-
dates all correctly spelled, Initials, etc.
What's the diff, Lsvi, the names will
get Strengthened out on the official ballot
and the newspapers are not responsible
for these sane ballots save those few
who print them from certified copies for
the county auditor. OF course 1t ls
better that the ticket when run" at tile
masthead OF a newspaper be correct, but
solely as q matter OF typographical
correctness; so far as the count and
election results figure, makes no diff
erence. The elector votes the ballot
given him by the election judges, not as
he has seen 1t in some newspaper. and
the ballot clearly shows the nominees OF
each party. Since the adoption OF the
Australian ballot 1t wero better If the
party ticket be reiegated to the waste
basket along with the "card OF thanks"
and other relics OF country nawspsperdom
and the space given over to fresh matter
every week Of more benefit to the party
and OF greater interest to the general
reader. The publication of the ticket a
few times--as a matter Of news when
the nominations are made, and later
as q means Of reference should be
sufficient and meet all requirements.
Anyhow. this is the practice OF all the

Quick Witted.

at was simply an exhibition of nerve
and quick wit" said the old banker
who was dining at his club with a
number of friends. mo one but the
paying teller knew what was happer-
ing at the time, and what might have
been a tragedy was turned into a COM
edy by his quick wit.
During the noon hour one day an
old man approached the paying teller
and presented a check for $1,000.O00.
With it was a badly written letter to
the effect that if the immediate pay
ment of the check was not forthcoming
the teller would have his head blown
off. He was nothing but a crank, but
he had come armed for business, and if
the wit of the paying teller had failed
him for an instant there might have
been a tragedy. But the paying teller
coolly took up the check, glanced at it
and then handed it back with the re-
mark that the crank mad neglected to
put stamp upon it. In an instant the
crank was full of apologies at his over
sight and departed to get stamp. 1t
took but moment to notify the police,
and the crank was put where there is
no danger of his demanding the pay
ment of any more $10O0.000 checks at
the point of gun" -Detroit Free
