The fourth uniform examination
for teachers certificates IS being
held In the High School assembly
by examiners D. L.Talkington, and
II. D. Garrison. About fifteen can
didates are going through the or
deal. Two days are required to do
the work.
Fourth month of school begins
Monday.
TIE enrolment Is nearing the
1000 mark.
Teachers are working Industrious
| iy to make up an exhibit for the
St. Louis exposition. An outline
has been submitted to the State
Superintendent and meets with his
approval.
The first series of examinations
closed Wednesday forenoon, and
the pupils doubtless heaved many
signs of relief. These tests are
burdensome to the boys and girls,
but so long as the entrance to all
leading professions in life Is made
possible only through ability to
pass written tests, 1t seems fitting
to train the rising generation to
place on paper, neatly and accurat-
ly what they have been learned.
Outside of the home county OF
Cabell In which Marshall College Is
situated, Tyler county has the
larges' number of representatives
In the senior class of that insitu-
ton. Among the number are Mis-
ses Harriet Campbell and HERNIA
Shriver, Sistersville teachers, who
are attending school on leave OF
absence.
There Is renewed interest In the
tject of drawing throughout all
the schools. In some departments
water colors have been placed IN
the hands OF pupils and the results
obtained are quite surprising. An
ever changing exhibit of this and
other work may be seen on the hall
bulletin boards.
Miss Elliott of the high school Is
preparing a history of the public
schools OF Slstersville. 1t will be
incorporated into bound volume
to be issued by the State Depart
ment of free schools.
Library Day attracted many spec
tators to the Auditorium, and ali

the boys and girls. There was
much music, both vocal and instru
mental and talent was displayed ir
many of the selections. Rooms

thereby and formed pretty picture

South Side school had Its own sep

liberal amounting to about $40. OF

AN OBJECTION
To The Statement Made In Tyler Win
dow Glass Cos. Labor Troubles.

In the edition of the Daily OIL
Review under date OF November
25th. statement was made in ref
erepce to the differences existing
between the glass workers employ

that company. We trust that the
public will withhold a decision IN
the matter until an investigation
is made, at which time they viii!

Another feature In connection
with the arrest of the suspects, was
the absence of a warrant. Officers
of the law should be certain they
are right before they place indivi-
duals behind prison bara, as bas

WOODROW WILSON COMES
The Brilliant President Of. Princeton
University Soon to Lecture
, '.' Here.

Several distinguished university presi-
dents have visited Minneapolis this year,
and it has been a source Of disappoint-
ment to the general public that none Of
them gave public address. But arrange
ments have been made to- obtain such an
address by Woodrow Wilson. the brilliant
young president of Princeton, who isSsoon
to visit the northwest. President Wilson
will lecture at Plymouth church Saturday
evening. April Is, on What it Means to
Be an American"
This will probably prove to be one of
the most profitable and satisfactory lee
lures Minneapolis has had this year.
President Wilson has never been here be-
fore. He is singularly interesting talk
er and has chosen a fertile subject
This is the day of young university
presidents, and Woodrow Wilson is in the
first rank of them. To him has fallen the
into Princeton. He is the first layman to
be raised to the presidency Of that insti-
tion. DR.. Wilson is a man of broad
human sympathies deep understanding,
mellow humor, incisive wit and a most
fascinating personality He is a Vir-
Rinian by birth and in his first, post
graduate days practiced law at Atlanta
Ga. All his life he has made a study OF
politics and government. 1t has been his
aim to understand everything about the
complicated and multiplied systems OF
government in America. -. Such work
was inseparable from close study Of
American history. and he has given his
loving and patriotic attention to the his.
tory of the republic. His History of the
American People has only recently beer
published and bids fair to become fol
American history readers what GREEN'S

RAILROADS.
500 Line BOATS Due
Their Arrival at Gladstone, Mich,
Will Relieve Congested Ware
houses There.
Lake Firemen and Oilers Are Nego-
tiating With Individual
Companies.

The expected arrival of three 500 line
steamers at Gladstone. Mich. tonight,
laden with coal and packet freight will
mar kthe opening of the lake season
for the 500 road. The settlement OF the
difficulty with hte oilers and firemen,
SO far as the 500 boats are concerned,
was brought about thru compromise
on the part of the Marine, Firemen, Oil
ers and Water Tenders association,
which at first refused to consider any
proposition which did not come from the
Lake Carriers association but later
consented to deal with owners. The set
tle,nent of those lines which have sue
ceeded in making settlement Is based
upon a schedule of $50. so per month from
the opening of the season until Oct. l.,
after which the rate will be $50 per
month - n-,. ...s- T. .E[s-
The Wisconsin expects to come to an
agreement with the men at Milwaukee
very soon. Owners of carriers in Chi
cago Immediately signed agreements
when it was learned that the firemen and
oilers would treat with masters inde-
pendently of the Carriers association.
The movement Of the 500 vessels will
relieve the very crowded conditions Of

What to Eat Stated by a Food Expert.

Not all people know that by the use of
food alone, when scientifically made and
properly selected to produce certain re-

The subject is worth any ones atten-

ness and 1t is happiness we are all seek
Ing so pay attention to the kind Of food

Many people stagger along If sick but

sure way is to adopt the following diet
which is toothsome, .palatable, highly nu-
tritious, and will produce remarkable re-

Chambers, general freight agent of the
Santa Fe railroad gave testimony before
the Interstate commerce commission
which the growers and shippers inter-
preted as strongly supporting their conten-

the shipments 9of citrus fruits to east

the cost of transporting fruit from South"
ern California had increased 25 per cent
since the $125 rate became effective in
1886, the fruit business had increased SO
enormously in the same period that the
railroads had been able to increase their

Southern Pacific Fight Over. Stock Is
Distributed. ss r.
New York. April 1.-THE Southern Pa
cific pool expired by limitation yesterday.
The majority Of pool stock had been dis
tributed to pool members and only few
certificates remained to be delivered. The
result of the operations Of the pool the
largest and most disastrous in the history
of Wall street, is a net loss to the sub
scribers calculated at Thursdays closing
price for the stock-56A-of $4,000, o00
Altho under the terms of the agreement
the pool manager, James r. Keene, had
the power to accumulate 100000 shares
of stock, as a matter of fact he pur-
chased only 244,000. ~.
The average cost was $16,669. .937.. and
the market value at yesterdays closing
price was $13.S69, 700.
The returning of stock to subscribers
leaves them at liberty to do with it what
they will and the general belief in Wall
street Is that those who had not already
sold stock short against their pool hold
ings would not be in a hurry to throw
their property overheard. but would wait
for an enhancement of the price.
