That's what most folks declare he fs-- a genius.
 Uncle Remus himself can't see 1t that way. He does not think he has done any thing at all remarkable. It amuses him- self when people try to make great fuss over him and his works. In fact, about everything in this world except suffering appeals strongly to his sense of humor. and that Is why his face and eyes are as full of smiles as the stories that are told by dear old Uncle Remus himself.
 Beginning Juiys7, Uncle Remus will tell one of his infmitable stories a week in the comic supplement of thIs paper He will undoubtedly give some of the choicest stories to the supplement, and in them will figure such old friends as Br'er Rab- bit, Br'er Fox and Br'er Wolf. Pictorial ly the stories will be interpreted by J. A, Condo. The feature will take up . whole page and will be in colors.

 At one time at the meeting last Thursday evening between the sub committee from Brooklyn and the committee from the Business Mems association it looked as if Cornelius Tracy and Hans Rasmussen would mix up. Although the former is sup posed to be working in connection with the other Brooklyn people, he seems to have views which none of the other members of the committee favor.
 There was a meeting of the Town Plot school committee last evening to
 
 mates on the proposed addition to the school house. Hans Rasmussen acted as chairman and Michael c. German as clerk. The following committee was authorized to get bids for the cost of the proposed four rooms: Thomas E. Walker. George J. Ad- ans, I. s. Upson, Philip Savard and George D. Hinman. The men named above have the power to expend $14.O0O on the building but that sum is the limit. At present many of the children are compelled to attend the Barnard school but it is thought the Town Plot school with it's new rooms will be able to accommodate all the children of that district in the fall.
