HIGH SCHOOL
 FIGHTS WARM The End of It All Seems
 Approaching. LEADING MEN ARE COMING Big Delegations Expected at Capitol
 This Week. Ia Over Half the Counties of the state Hot Fights Are Being waged and the Commission Has . Hard
 Task Before It.
LEADING MEN ARE COMING

Ii is believed that Wednesday and Thursday of this week will witness great influx Of cltizens from all parts of the State to Montgomery. The oc- caslon will be & sitting 5f the Hign School Commission April zs and 80 in the Capitol
 It Is known that the mem bers of si.s Commission will go into session on these days but 1t is not known what counties will be considered for locating high school sites. It is understood that most all the counties in which diva " between cities and towns there- la has been keen will send ds'ega;iaps to the Capitol to make their final propositions to the Commis sicn.
 The leading citizens who are back of the bids for high school sites in many of the counties are chafing under the apparent delay of the High School Commission to act. It is believed that these will be given the,r final hearing next Wednesday and Thursday. The decisions of the Com n .si Ia are expect ed to follow the consideration of the numerous proposals
 The tdsa of the interested people In the counties crying for the high schools is to secure the word of the Commis- sion to begin work on the building In time for occuoaacy at the beginning of the next scholastic year. It is well kuQWu ItAt SHG OVAAihASEACA i a . been delayed ia their decisions already longer than they had anticipated They themselves are understood to Le anxious for an opportunity to make their final decisions.
 In view of. the hot fights that have been waging in about half the counties of the State. the Capitol, the Gov er- nor's ofice, the office of State Auditor W. ". Brandon and that of Hon Harry c. Gunnels. State Superinten- dent of E1.c lion. are expected to bt the mecra of local educators this week Tie competition between localities has bsen so great that 1t would be illogi- ca. to think the leaders will fail tc saow up in the last round and deliver tkeir final blows In the contests.
 True, the several towns bidding fol lhe high school sites have. according tt
The Montgomery advertiser., 1908-04-26

tie law, put their propositions in writ ,u< with satisfactory guarantees. But often. a line of we'll placed talk and praise of the physical surroundings and other attractions has its effect. For IL must be borne In mind that the 'oca- ton of the high schools in the coun- ties Is not altogether a matter of iol- lars and cents. Those making q light for the location remember the follow ing words of the Commission when the Governor announced that the treasury would permit of the high school ap- propriations: They (the Commission will. in passing on applications, take into consideration increased donations of land and increased funds for build ings and for equipment, also the healthfulness of the locality and the school population accessible-the idea being to locate the school where 1t would be of the greatest good to the greatest number"
 It will be readily seen that there is wide room for discretion on the part of the Commission under the factors set down-"the healthfulness of the locality and the school population ac- cessible" Admitting which. one can see there will be a war of words as we'll as a war of dollars before the decisions are announced
 Some of the counties in which the fights are hottest for these high schools are: Cherokee. Chiffon. Coffee, Coosa, Covington, Cullman, DeKalb. Fayette Geneva, Jackson, Lamar, Choctaw
 Pickens. St. Clair and Wilcox In one
 or two of these counties applications have been received by the Commission
 embracing an offer of about $25,00o
 In many instances, the item of lights
 and fuel to the school have been prom ised for twenty, thirty and fifty yeari in addition to the magnificent cast proposition on the start.
 The State promises to appropriate annually S2,00o to each County in whicf
 a site Is selected for the payment O the teachers only. As this amount witt | the matriculation fee of only s1 will | be insufficient to sustain first clas | high school, 1t will be expected by tn | Commission in all applications that tn | bidding communities will agree t. supplement the fund so as to procur | a teaching force creditable alike to tn l County and to the State.
 l The minimum bid of a locality 1 | fixed by the law at $5,000 which ma, 1 represent the joint value of the sit | and the sch ool promised to be erected l The site of at least five acres must b | conveyed to the State by deed.
 The selection of several sites is ex 1 pected to follow immediately the sit | ting Thursday and Friday of the Com
 mission.

Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion OF the ear.
There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that Is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an inhamed con-
dition OF the mucous lining OF the Eus-
tachian Tube. When this tube Is in
famed you have a rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing. and when Il Is en-
tirely closed, Deafness Is the result,
and unless the inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to its
normal condition. hearing will be de-
stroyed forever; nine cases out OF ten
are caused by Catarrh, which Is moth
ing but an inhamed condition OF the
mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case OF Deafness (caused BY
Catarrh) that cannot be cured by Halls
Catarrh Cure. Send for circulars free.
