BONDS FAILED TO
GET NECESSARY
MAJORITY TO WIN

The school bond issue failed to
carry. The vote on the question was
heavier than was anticipated. and
while the issue received a plurality il
rquired tWo-thirds to carry.
There were an even 1900 votes
east on the question. The result Is
not surprising 10 the student of such
issues There Is no disputing the fact
that Il is, and win be, hard thing to
accomplish, 10 put through any char
acier Of bond issue in Paducah. with
the people I'm their present state of
mind. but. it &c Is conceded the school
bonds would have carried by good
majority had the board asked for
Just half the amount. $4,000. One
hundred thousand is all the board can
issue, at present, and there were a
great number OF people who opposed
taking an the amount just now.
The board saw it too late 10 make
Ia change Coming into management
of the schools with a deficit in the
treasury OF over $4,000; with sew
eral OF the schools in con iitions that
are disgrace to any city. and with
the board Of health calling for their
repair or closing; with street i'm
provcments entailing an expenditure
of $500 on one building. heating
plants needed in some sanitary i'm
pruvemonts in others; with crowded
conditions in the rooms. that are not
permitted to obtain anywhere else
but Paducah. they deemed the bond
issue the only way out of their din
culties.
The mayor has promised to use his
Influence for temporary relief, and
there Is no doubt that the incoming
council viii provide for its immediate
necessities, so there should not BIO
any necessity for the closing of the
schools. as is still current expression
in some circles.

In the county aud district

Sun demonstrated the superiority
Of its service and beat all rivals
in the publicity business last
night with the news.

service, or inability TO handle the
dispatches, or disincliuation to
give out the kind of news that
wac coming 20 faducdh. other
bulletins in the city did not
throw out results early. as did
The Sun. and FOR that reason, as
well as on account Of the more
general circulation OF The Sun,
the bulk of the crowds on the
streets flocked to Third street to
see the results.
The star theatcr management

primary, and. in the sherif's race,

well forecasted by 10 o'clock.

The indications are that the Republi-
cans have captured three of the con-
gressional districts in Kentucky. and
this is one of the consultations coming
to the party on the election in the
state. The national committee spent
no money at all for the national
ticket in Kentucky, but conferred its
fight on the congressional districts.

sumo that If the same effort had been
directed toward the national ticket it
would have won out.

For the Tailor-Made Girl

Nothing puts a modish so exactly on the same plane with men in dress as the tailor-made gown. Not only does it cor respond in cut and fashion to masculine attire, but 1t must be cared for like mans clothes. The pressing of the coat and skirt, and the proper hanging of 1t, makes 1t appearance just as different as possible. The coat, for instance, should never be hung up the back of the neck. Get a wire or wooden coat-hanger and place the garment on it properly, never putting but one article on the same hang CT. The hangers are very inexpensive, within the reach of any one who can af- ford a tailor-made gown. Some modishes prefer folding a skirt together and fas- tening it with large safety pin, and then hanging It on a peg, but the wire hanger keeps its folds In place, and there is no danger of crushing when properly arranged.
