the school board, an officious member
intimated that he would give certain

writer in the Scottish American. After

cradle time without any appearance of
attention from the class, he stopped

State Superintendent L.. D. Harvey
has apportioned the annual state aid to
common schools. This money is
derived principally from the assessment
of one mill on every dollar of assess
able property in the state. To that
may be added about $4,000 revenue
derived from interest on common
school trust funds and from certain
fines. Most of the older settled count
les of the southern part of the state
are compelled under their one-mill
assessment to contribute toward this
state aid fund more than they receive
back under the appertionment. Of
our own county and others near by, we
note that Jefferson county pays $34.-
622 20 and receives back $27, 545, %;
Dodge pays $49,OS426 and receives
$35, 498, Is; Waukesha pays $50, 1888, 81,
and receives back $25, 10. Dane
pays $71, 1915 and receives back
$50, 6O5, IS; Columbia pays $25, 1875, 80
and receives back $22, %. On the
other hand Shawano county pays $8,-
188.07 and receives 1924. 786, OF; Juneau
pays So. 845, "a and receives SIG, 631, So;
Polk pays Sc, 399, Sc and receives $16,-
1888. The same proportion holds
fairly well among the new counties of
the state.

PROFIT

The matter of feed is Of
tremendous Importance to the
farmer. Wrong feeding is
loss. Right feeding is profit.
The up-to-datefarmer knows
what to feed his COWS to get
the most milk, his pigs to get
the most pork, his hens to
get the most eggs. Science.
But how about the children?
Are they fed according to
science, a bone food if bones
are soft and undeveloped, a
flesh and muscle food if they
are thin and weak and a blood
food if there is anemia?
SCOTS Emulsion is mixed
food; the Cod Liver Oil in it
makes flesh, blood and muscle,
the Lime and Soda make bone
and brain. 1t is the standard
scientific food for delicate
children.

buildings and grounds and where
number of adults are kept in close Sc
clusion, engaged in the celebration of
mysterious rites or any other employ
ment to which they may be assigned
by the management, which appears to
be quite despotic. Mr.. Bohn, whose
wife was also in the settlement, sue
ceeded in getting back his children,
but not until he got decision in his
favor from the supreme court Of Cali
fornia. The stories which they have
told since they were released have con-
tributed essentially to stimulate in
quiry into the methods employed at
Point Iona.
DIR. Mary E. Green, OF Charlotte,
Mich, is the mother of Mrs. John j.
Bohn. She says that her daughter is
either crazed or hypnotized by Mrs.
Tingley, and took her two little boys
there. The father was refused admit
lance, and SO went into court to get his
children. Meantime Mrs. Tingley
struck back and struck hard. Under
her direction, as Mrs. Green alleges,
Mrs. Bohn brought three suits for d.
vorce against her husband naming her
own mother as correspondent. These
were in Chicago courts, and were dis
missed, but another has been brought
in California. The fact that the care
of the children was adjudged to Mr..
Bonn appears to indicate that this
charge against him and Mrs. Green was
not supported.
These statements are ex parte, says
the Louisville Courier-J ournal, but the
Point Iona school has been before the
public for good while, and it is GER
tainly highly desirable that a full in-
yestigation should be made of the
charges before more children are sent
there to serve as basis for asking a
confding public for contributions.
