A good substantial barn 1924 is in
course of construction on the grounds
of school district No. 36. 1t will give
room for eight horses and satisfy
long felt want. If a county schoo
district is to remain large enough tC
support a good school, some of the
children must travel "a miles. That
is too great a distance for the little
tots to walk. In fact it is better fol-
them to ride q miles to school thar
walk, wade, or swim one-half mil
in snow, mud, or water. The day Ii
not far distant when all rightly man
aged districts will build barns OF
their grounds and have their term:
of school last all winter when tn
horses are idle. School boards do al
you can for this good cause, for ON
thing build a barn.

are pleasant men to meet. j. A. is
an old soldier and it is about an even
thing with him and Squire Pratt as to
which can get off the biggest wal

have told those stories so many times
that they have come to believe them
to be true.

CONTRACTS GOOD WITHIN ONE STATE

J. VI. Page. editor of the Jerseyville
Democrat. and secretary OF the Illinois
Press association. has received a letter
from the interstate commerce commits
sion at Washington regarding the issu-
ing Of transportation to newspapers
during the next year in exchange for
advertising space.
The decision seems contrary to that
given out by the commission a few
weeks ago to the Massachusetts Press
association, and permits the issuing of
transportation on the basis named,
when such transportation is made
wholly within one state.
Editor Page took the matter up with
the commission in his official capacity
as secretary of the Illinois Press asso-
citation, and received the following re
ply:

swering inquiry contained in yours of
the Goth, section | of the act to regulate
commerce provides that its terms shall
not apply to transportation of passen-
gers or property wholly within one
state In view of this provision, it is
our understanding that we have no jur-
isdiction over the question of the issu-
ance of transportation. good wholly
within one state but if such transport
tation is used in connection with. or as
any part of an interstate trip. it would
be violation of the terms of the act
The old law prohibits the accept
ance of a greater or less amount for
transportation than that specified by
the tariffc The new law prohibits the
acceptance of a greater or less or diff
ferent sum than that named in the
the tariffs. The new law prohibits the
the Interpretation and ruling of the
commission in this connection is not
aimed particularly at the exchange of
newspaper advertising for transporta-
ton, but it necessarily covers a much
wider field. If the law permitted the,
exchange of newspaper advertising
space for transportation it would of
necessity permit the exchange of other
commodities, and the widest possible
