am often asked by school trus~
tees, if the stove were placed in the
center Of the room, will not the heat
be more uniformly distributed? I
do not see how it can be. BY this
plan all the heat from the stove is
forced by the flow of pure air from
the outside through the fresh air
box, directly to within a few feet
from the ceiling The only escape
for it is through the foul air regis
ter in the chimney near the floor
The escape is by pressure. In a
recent test OF six schOolhouses, the
greatest variation found was three
degrees, when measured the same
distance from the floor The Their
mometer should hang not to exceed
forty inches from the floor. Does
not this plan sometimes fail to prop
erly heat the school room? may be
asked.
Yes, if the building be poor one,
if upon poor foundation, or if i'm
properly banked around and above
the foundation with good sand or
gravel. The wind must not blow
under the foundation. It cools the
floor too much.
A schoolroom is heated by this
plan by air currents, and not by
direct radiation o. heat from the
stove dis in the old way.
But, it may be asked, do not
the pupils sometimes dislike this
p]an?"
Yes, if the plant be put in after
the school has been in session a few
months and the pupils become
habituated to a hot stove Many
pupils are uncomfortably cold in a
steam heated room, simply because
they cannot see a cheerful fire, tho
the mercury may register 20 de-
greeS above zero.
The two most needful conditions
for the betterment ofRedwood coun-;
ty schools, are heating and out
houses. We are yet much behind
the age in these two most necessary
conditions. Two outhouses, 8X1O
feet on the ground and seven feet
to the plates, built warm, and built
with vestibule extending length
wise. so that drifting SHOWS may be
prohibited from blowing in, should
be on every school ground. 1t is
painful to see the way some condi-
tions prevail in some districts,
which are rich in material wealth,
but poor in Christian sanitation.

SPENCER BARBER IS IN
FAVOR OF CUTTING PRICES


Spencer, Dec. ga short time ago
an effort was made in town to raise
the price of cigarettes. Now one of the
BARRIERS of the town is making an effort
to cut prices in the BARRIERS trade. The
cigaret trust that was formed lasted
but one week, and from all indications
the efforts of the barber will fail be-
fore he gets his plans well under way.
The barber who is trying to cut the
prices in town is Alphonse Quirie. He
is not going to cut the prices without
notifying his friends. He has in his
mind a scheme which he win propose
to the Spencer BARRIERS, and hopes they
will adopt It, He thinks the BARRIERS in
town are receiving enough money
for hair cut, and he thinks that If the
price of hair cutting is reduced by all
the BARRIERS there will be more business
done He proposes that the price Of a
hair cut be 20 cents instead of 25. On
Saturdays he is in favor of the price
remaining at the old rate. He claims
this would influence people to get their
hair cut during the first five working
days of the week, instead of on Satur-
days, and that the BARRIERS would have
more time on Saturdays for shaving.
The Spy man called at the shop of
Mr. Quirie today but that gentleman
was not in, but his plans to boom the
trade have been well circulated about
town.
The local BARRIERS have different opin-
ions on he subject; some are of the opin-
ion that the change would be a good
thing, and others are averse to the pro-
posed change.

AS a result of a runaway accident
in which the Austin Furniture Compa-
ny's big delivery team figured, one of
the handsome horses was so badly in
jured as to necessitate being killed, and
the wagon was completely demolished.
The accident happened on the steepest
hill in the city, the horses starting to
run on Charles Street and turning the
corner of that street where it inter
sects South Street which is the steep
est in the city, and down this hill the
team dashed at breakneck speed. Half
way down the hill the horses attempted
to turn into a side street, but at the
speed they were going this was impos-
sible, and resulted in either horse going
on the opposite side of a big electric
light pole Here was where the final
scene was enacted. The harness was
ripped from one horse and it was freed
but the other was caught and one Of
it's legs broken in two places and also
crushad. The wagon was completely
sheared and, in fact, every seam was
opened and the debris was apparently
part Of the pole twisted about it. 1t
took the combined efforts of 80 men to
pull 1t away from the pole. What fur
niture was in the wagon met a similar
fate

The old wooden bridge between the
old shops and Water Street, connecting
property of the Boston & Maine Rail
road was recently looked over by
Mayor Rabbit, and as a result he has

the company, and repairs will probably
be made. The mayor looked it over at
a time when the river was high, and
SAYS had there been much ice it would
not have cleared the flooring of the
bridge. and, in event of the bridge be-
ing carried away. much property dam

CABINET DIFFERENCES
HAVE BEEN SETTLED

Yokohama, Dec. 26.-The cabinet DIFF
ferences have been arranged. owing
largely it is understood, to the tele-
graphic intervention of Marquis Ito.
The budget has been withdrawn for
the purpose Of redrafting. It is be-
lieved, however, that the government s
financial program will pass the diet.
The japanese budget shows a sur
plus of Al, 100000 yen. The government
proposes to devote this amount, to-
gether with the proceeds Of the
Chinese indemnity, to reducing the ma
tional debit, building railroads and
telegraph lines and restoring the naval
maintenance fund.
