REFEREE REVERSES
His Decision and Gives "SpeIin' Mach" To
The Hay. Seeds.

1t seems that decisions ren.
dered at the 'Spelin' Mach by
referee j. w. Johnston, caused
considerabl e dissatisfaction.
Rev. A. B. Book, having charge
of the Monroe City Circuit, en-.
tered a protest on the word,
"Jacob's-ladder," but the pro.
test was not considered, which
resulted in the championship
being given to the Methodist of
this city. Rev. Book insisted
that the rules gave Webster as
the last court of resort aud that
the word Jacobs" without the
apostrophe was incorrectly
spelled. The referee was still
in doubt so wrote Miss Matte
Weaver, of Mt. Sterling, ILL.,,
who is one of the teachers in
the Monroe City High School
and in substance her reply was:
Formerly the letter E Was used
to denote the possessive case
and that the apostrophe was
adopted or used in its stead, and
to drop the apostrophe was the
equivalent of dropping Il letter,
therefore the word was not
spelled correctly. That being
the case, upon the best author
ity, Rev. A. B. Book we are
informed that the decision has
been reversed, and rendered in
favor of the Country Methodist,
Monroe City Circuit. That be-
ing the case, when the snag,
Jacobs ladder was struck, the
contest should have come to an
end with five Hay Seed spell Hers
on the floor.
They were Emmet Griffith,
Misses Nellie Griffith, Tillie
Gottman, Mamie Carr, II d
Daphne Ora wford.
AS the country schools turned
the city school down twice last
winter and the country church
bowled over the city CHURCH,
the palm of victory-The Hay
Seeds can beat the Town Jakes
spelling-should be freely and
cheerfully conceded to them
and handed over.
