voters who may have moved from one
precinct to another. The formal action
of the board was taken concerning the
election, date and place of holding.
The assessment for the coming year
was talked over informally as hereto
fore outlined. The levy will be the
same as last year, 33 mills, % of which
will be divided between the teachers
and contingent funds end for the
school house. This will create a teach
ers' fund of $4,000, $4,000 in excess of
what 1T has been heretofore.
The school house fund is cut down
one-half. or Just enough to create a
fund in about two years that will build

reduced to an amount sufficient to keep
up repairs.

WORK OF HIGH ORDER.
Manual Training Exhibit at Rogers
School Pleasant Surprise to Many

\
School Pleasant Surprise to Many
Visitors.
To merely state that the throngs of
visitors which visited the manual
| training exhibit of the public schools
held "Wednesday afternoon and evening
at the Rogers building. were surprised,
would scarcely be putting 1t strong
lenough, for on every side could be heard
exclamations of wonderment and sur
prise that school children's hands
could have produced the many finished
results exhibited. Almost everything
| conceivable was exhibited on the walls
| of the three rooms used for the pur-
pose. Those of the seventh and first
grades We're utilized largely to show
the work of the pupils of the build
ing. while in the kindergarten room Was
displayed the general exhibit chosen
from the best work of the various
wards. This latter exhibit Will also be
shown with the work AT the other build
ings. Among the articles shown could
be found handiwork ranging from sim
PIE woven paper work. done by kinder
garten tots of 5, to elaborate designs
for rugs or stained windows or studies
in charcoal executed by high school
pupils and not far distant from works
of art To attempt to mention in de-
tail those especially meritorious would
be to list almost the entire exhibit,
which required two or three hours to
examine thoroughly. Among those
over which the visitors fingered longest
could be enumerated the bent iron
work and basket weaving of the pupils
of the sixth grade Arnold school, and
the wall paper. rug and colored window
designs from the various schools. OF
the latter one or two were of especial
beauty. both in design and color effect.
Pupils of the high school showed
very excellent lot of studies from both
real and still life in ink and crayon,
upon which many favorable comments
were passed. In the same general eX-
hibit was very good display OF DOCK
cover, calendar and menu designs, also
mechanical working drawings, both
for machinery and architectural work.
Among the younger grades OF the
Rogers school the weaving In ratfia OF
Indian cradles of the first grade. OF
woven rattan baskets, and free hand
paper cutting by the kindergarten
pupils; modelling in clay by the fourth
graders We're all good. Among the ex-
hibits of individuals the water color
studies from still life, landscape and
marine copies by Miss Charlotte CHICK
were very good. Miss Click is seventh
grade pupil of the Rogers school and
has taken especial study in this branch
OF art.
Many of the visitors We're heard to
say that it was hard to believe the
work shown was all original and done
by school children when much OF 1t was
very finished and showed both from
point of conception and execution de-
eided ability. After the school BOARD
had adjourned the members
visited the exhibition in BODY and
were as agreeably surprised as were

| If the republicans in Marshalltown
wish to vote at the primary election
on March 10 it will be necessary for
them to register this year. This is in
accordance with the rules governing
primary elections, adopted by the coun-
I y convention of 1902. The rules are
mot generally understood, because of
| the fact that this is the first year
they have been in force. The rural
districts are not affected, for the rule
applies only to cities having pop.
ulation of over 5000.
In order to get the rules before the
voters Chairman a. d. Meeker vii! have
printed and distributed tomorrow
5000 notices containing the rules THAI
must be complied with. The dates of
registration will be given, and unless
the voters are registered on one oil
those days he will not be entitled to
vote at the primary. The county con-
vention saw fit to adopt the rules in
order to give the party cleaner prl-
mary and prevent, as far as possible,
the working in OF democratic votes.
The rules adopted are as follows:
Every legal voter must register his
name and address with the registry
board of the precinct in which he lives
on one of the following days, viz: Sat
urday February Is, between the hours
of II noon and p. M: Monday, March
p, between the hours of s a. m and
70. M; Saturday, March {, between the
hours of s a. m. and Z p m. No one
can register on election day, and no one
can vote who is not registered.
The registry board will meet for the
purpose of registering voters at the
usual voting places in each ward on
the above mentioned days. The fol-
lowing is rule 20, of primary rules,
which governs the registration of vot-
ers in Marshalltown:
Rule 90. In cities having popu-
lation of 5000 or more, every repub-
lican voter must register each year to
entitle him to "a vote at the primary
election. The registry books for such
registration shall be open on the fol-
lowing days: First-On the second
Saturday before the primary election
from II o'clock noon until O'Clock
.. M: second--on the second Monday
DeIOfe tHe primary eisNsioi iloiAi
O'Clock a. m. until p. M: third-on
the first Saturday before the primary
election from s a. m. until p. IN. No
person shall be permitted to register
on election day, and no person shall be
allowed to vote who is not registered"
AS yet the places of registration have
not been selected, but they will be an
nounced soon by the registry boards
and the committeeman of the different
precincts. AS soon as the places are
chosen they will be announced. So far
as possible the registration will be
conducted at the polling places of the
wards.

SIMPLY BREATHEIT
A Few Minutes Use of Hyonoei Four
Times Day Cures Catarrh.

A Few Minutes Use of Hyomei Four
Times Day Cures catarrh.
The pleasantest, most convenient and
the only scientific method for the treat
ment and cure of catarrh is Hyomei.
Simply put twenty drops of Hyomei IN
the inhaler that comes with every
package and then breathe it for few
minutes four times day.
1t seems remarkable that so simple
I q way OF treating catarrh will effect
q cure, but the most important discoN-
cries of science have always been the
simplest. BY breathing Hyomei in this
way every particle of air that enters
the air passages of throat and head
and goes into the lungs is charged with
q healing balsam that kills the germs
and bacilli of catarrh and soothes and
allays all irritation.
The first days use of Hyomei will
show decided Improvement and in q
short time there will be no further
trouble from catarrh. Its action is rap
Id and lasting.
You take no risk in buying Hyomei.
A complete outfit costs 81. and If after
using it you can say that it has not
helped you Mcbride & Will will return
your money. What other treatment for
catarrh is sold under guarantee like
this? None other has sufficient merit
