same that are hampering our work
in several lines. We lack room and
equipment. We have reached the point
where we must have better facilities
OF our educational work will suffer.
The crowded condition of the Cen
tral school with it's other disadvan-
tages during the first part of the
year, the handling of a much smaller
number of pupils in manual training
| than the instructor is capable of
handling and the dropping of the in
dividual work with pupils are the
chief ways in which this lack of
room is felt by the grades. The need
is especially felt by the high school,
J which has grown more rapidly than
the grades.
Miss Murphy has heard her recita-
| tions in four different rooms includ-
ing the laboratory. Some of the class
es recite in one room ON certain days
of the week and in other rooms on
other days. The laboratory equipment,
of the school and the space allotted
to the laboratory have become quite
inadequate. The high school assembly
room will hold the high school pu-
pills only by putting two pupils in
nearly every single seat. The fresh
men class is seated In three differ
ent rooms and the normal room has
had to furnish seating room for a
number who do not belong there. The
superintendent's office and supply
rooms are also overcrowded. These
things involve not merely little in-
convenience but increase the diff
culties of discipline and of instruc-
tion.
In fact if we had not had in the
high school and in the 5th, 9Th and
7th grades at the Central and Long
fellow schools strong, experienced
teachers the discipline and work
would have suffered seriously this year
Teachers and pupils will be unable to
do their best work until these con-
ditions are changed. The standard for
science work in Minnesota High
schools is high and we can not keep
UP to that standard with our present |
room and equipment. When Morris |
schools took up the manual training |
work four years ago there were not |
over six towns of the same class in
that had done anything in
that line But since that time some
forty Or fifty schools have taken up
the work, many of them in new build
Ings with plenty of room and equip
nent.
If we are to do as much for the
'hildren of Morris as the better
school systems are doing, we must
lave better facilities. The present
,olicies and condition of the school
annot be maintained without them. /,
In closing this report I wish to ,
and express apprecia-
ion for the fine spirit, which char
cterizes the teaching corps and the
ther employees Of the board. ] wish Z
lso to thank the members of the !.
oard, individually and collectively >
or the manner in which they have
lpported and maintained the best
lterests of the schools. May our fell .
w citizens recognize and appreciate
lese services which you have rend-
red them.

Council Refuses to Pay Tax.

Council Refuses to Pay Tax.
At the regular council meeting on
Tuesday evening, the matter of pay
ing the two per cent tax on money
received from liquor licenses was taken
up, and the council on the advise of
City Attorney Ormond, definitely de-
cided to refuse to pay the tax. It is
probable that the State Board of Con-
troll will now bring action against the
city and the consttutionality of the
tax will then be teste in the courts.
There was little else but routine bus
mess transacted. S.Stewart appeared
before the council, and asked that on
account of the great amount of water
he finds it necessary to use in milling
this years crop of wheat that the wa
ter rats be reduced. President Watz-
ke appointed the whole council as a
committee to take up the matter this
week.
T. J. Moore appeared before the
council and asked that the sprink-
ling assessment on property south of
Fourth street be remitted fifty per
cent, 40 the sprinkling was not done
in front of that property. The coun-
Gil decided that nothing could be done,
as the amount OF bhe levy was just
enough to cover the cost of sprink-
ling.
A dispute between Frank Malmberg
and J. J. Stock as to the amount to be
paid for Mr.. Stocks cement sidewalk,
which was damaged by being walked
on before the cement had set, was
amicably settled by the council.
City Treasurer Gilbert submitted the

came from the British bark Hollywood
They viii do the hornpipe and few
clever clog dances between the acts
and, Judging by their advance work,
they will certainly jig their way into

dancing is very timely and musical and
there is a jingGng rythm to it that
will certainly make the people who
watch and hear it, keep time with their

 COUNTY.
Howell Brothers and J. Sutherland Ad- vised Not to Gin Until Staple
 Reaches 12K Cents.

Selma, Nov. S.-(Special)- Brothers and J. Suth erland. who op- crate gins at Jones' Switch, north of Selma, have found papers posted on the doors of their gin houses notifying them to stop ginning cotton until the price of the staple has advanced to 12 1-2 cents.
 The notice which was found pasted on the gins at Jones' Switch are the first of the kind to be posted in Gen. tral Alabama, and are regarded by some as a joke, while others believe that if the ginners continue to gin cotton that their gins will be burned.
 The notices posted read as follows: "To Howell Bros:
 No more cotton to be ginned till the price is 12 12 cents. You know the rest"
 The signature was a hand drawn on the bottom of the small piece of paper pointing toward the warning notice.
 MT. Sutherland, it is said. received like piece of information as did a ginner near Plantersville.
 Some of the ginners say they will not gin any more cotton until they have seen further what will be the out come of the letters.

TO COLLECT MONEY
FOR BUILDING OF PIKE ROAD ACROSS DALLAS COUNTY LINE.
Citizens of Selma Asked To Contribute One Thousand DolIars-COuncil- man Jones to Resign From
 Council.


 Selma, Nov. 3-(Special.)-Th Com mittee of tho Commercial and Indus- trial Association which was appointed at the last meeting of that organiza- tion to collect $1,0o0 from the citizens of Selma and which will be used for the building of a mile of the proposed turnpike between Selma and Mulberry Autauga County. will start out upon this work tomorrow.
 This amount will be used for the building of the road over a mile stretch in the sand just across the Dallas County line in Autauga and it is be- lieved that the committee will experi- ence no difficulty in collecting this amount as the majority of the citizens are in favor of having the turnpike built.
 Dallas County is ready to begin the work of building this road as far as the AutauEa County line and will be- gin work upon 1t within the next few weeks. It Is also thought that the $1,- 00O will be raised in the next few days. The City of Selma is also ready to be- gin the work of building the road across sand bed just east of the city. As soon as the Court of County Com missioners of Autauga County order the building of their part of the pro- posed road it is understood that the work of building the road over the two sand beds will be started at once
 The proposed road from Selma to Veto, distance of six miles, is in good shape and the Dallas County Com, missioners have already given Dr. w c. Phillips. the Commissioner who will build the road, authority to secure the services of an engineer to map out road from that point to Burnsvillc This engineer will begin the work ot mapping out this road next week and soon after then the work upon it will be started
