EDITOR PILOT.
Allow me space in the columns of
your paper to say word or two about
the BASKET ball game at Cato. Way
side practically forfeited game of
basket ball to Cato Friday evening, Jan.
II. With five minutes still to play,
Wayside left the floor. Their own of.
fetal did not declare the game forfeited,
but told Wayside privately, that he
thought they would be defeated, if they
played the game out.
Although three points ahead at the
time. Cato had every chance of win
ming, as they were rapidly overcoming
their oponents much larger lead.
When team of giants comes to Cato
to play ball with the light Cato team,
and quits when threatened with defeat,
there is every reason to be satisfied with
the showing of our little fellows. Civ
en- any kind of square DEAL Cato
would have led on the score board, as
we'll az in the hearts of an appreciative
audience.

ing Company which position he has
held for five years He has been engag-
ed in the furniture manufacturing busi-
ness the past fifteen years Mr.. Murphy
contemplates engaging in the manufac'
turing business in this city along the
lines in which he is schooled. He has
met with unbounded success since his
advent into the business in 1892 He,
accompanied by his wife, will leave
shortly for trip through the south. In
a letter accepting the resignation, Pres
ident Boyd of the company, pays high
tribute to Mr.. Murphy. The letter fol
lows:
Chicago, January ID, 1908.
My Dear Mr.. Murphy:
1t is with great reluctance
and much disappointment that your res.
ignation as General Manager of the
Manufacturing Department is accepted
Your service to the AMERICAN SEATING
COMPANY and its predecessor was of
such nature as to be of inestimable
value
Time and space do not permit me to
enumerate here the innumerable acts on
your part that stand ont boldly and
clearly in my memory and that of every
member of the Executive management
of the Company-acts that saved the
company thousands of dollars and help.
ed as we'll, to guide its destinies in the
right channel.
The present excellent physical condi-
tion of its manufacturing plants is en-.
tirely owing to the careful, painstaking,
intelligent and conscientious handling
by you. The concentration of the man.
ufacture of its product into four of the
eighteen plants originally operated was
made possible under your wise supervi.
sion and hence, the great annual saving
in the cost of production.
The able manner in which yon handl.
ed the sale of the abandoned plants of
the Company was the means Of saving
many thousands of dollars which, under
your management, We're used in placing
the active plants in the best of condition,
with sufficient capacity to manufacture
an increased output, which is evidenced
by the fact that during the year just
past the AMERICAN SEATING Co. man
ufactured and shipped from its plants
more goods than ever before in its his.
tory, or that of its predecessor, covering
period of nearly ten years.
Not only will you be missed in the
Department over which you so able pre-.
sided, but your wise counsel and advice
on all matters Of vital Importance in
the operating Of a business Of large pro.
portions, such rs this, were very benefi
cial, and the executive management
will keenly feel your absence in its coun
ellis. Your withdrawal from active par
ticipation in the Company affairs will
be regretted by no one more than the
undersigned
Wishing you full measure of sue.
cess, which you rightfully deserve,
am Sincerely yours,
THOs NJ BOYD,
President.

OFFICE OF
STATE SUPERINTENDENT.
Madison, Wis, Jan. 10, 1908

Madison, Wis, Jan. 10, 1908.
To County Superintendents;
Word has been reached the Office sew
eral times of late, that the ruling of the
department with reference to the IL 12
chimney for the patent ventilating
plants now being extensively sold in the
state, is being ignored in many instances
by school boards, and by agents for heat
ing apparatus. This is to be regretted,
and foreshadows trouble You are no
doubt we'll aware that none of the pa.
tented heating plants now on market
will give, at the best, the full amount
of fresh air that scientific investigation
shows children ought to have; but when
properly installed they are reasonably
satisfactory, and are incomparably bet
ter than no ventilation. But if such
plant is installed with small chimney,
say an X 8, the working capacity of
the plant is reduced to such degree as
to make il wholly unsatisfactory. Tests
with the thermometer show that l2 II
chimney carries off about fifty per cent
more foul air than an 8 X = chimney un-
der similar conditions When we real
ize that at best we do not get enough
fresh air, this difference of fifty per
cent is enormous. ! trust county super
lntendents will use all reasonable en-.
deavors to prevent mistakes on the part
of school boards. | trust they will also
give their personal attention to any
agent who may be going about making
some such statement IA This require
ment will not be insisted upon, or You
can put in the plant now and fix the
chimney when it suits you.
This department will refuse to accept
AS satisfactory, chimneys smaller than
II IL in connections with patent ven
tilating systems.
This fact should be made known as
thoroughly as possible in your county,
if it is not already we'll known. Occa-
sionally learn of districts that know
nothing of the printed department cir
cular of August 10, 1907. Additional
copies OF this circular are now in print,
and will be sent you soon.
Yours truly,
G. =. CARY,
State Superintendent.

Another good teachers meeting was
held at St. Nazianz last Saturday The
discussions were good and profitable.
Some of those who were on the program
were prevented from being present on
account of sickness.
VIM. Birkle gave very interesting
account of his trip to Niagara last sum.
mer Let every teacher, when taking a
trip somewhere, plan to give an account
of it at some meeting. Such accounts
help to make geography more interest
ing Miss Ella Schneider gave re-
sumo of the Current Events.
A discussion on Parliamentary Prac-
tice revealed the fact that the teachers
of the county are learning considerably
along this line. AT the meetings this
winter the teachers have shown an in
terest in this subject that is indeed com
mendable.
The discussion revealed the fact that
Parliamentary Practice is u common
sense study and not merely a memoriz
ing of rules The subject led to practi
cal civics in which some very good sug
gestions were made by various teachers
BY the way, don't forget to call the at
tention of your pupils to the fact that
the Circuit court IL in session.
A short discussion was also had on

oped some new ideas along this line.
