Reading for Improvement.

Any girl with an ordinary public
school education can do something 10
improve her mind little every day.
she can read a page OF some good
book-s book of travel. or a book OF
history. or book OF poems, or a book
Of essays-and she can think Of what
she has read. and BY copying in
blank book q few sentences or lines
which impress her, she can improve
her knowledge of spelling and phras-
ing. so that she will acquire after a
year OF such practice a better educa-
lion than many high school graduates
possess. Any librarian will advise an
ambitious girl what books to read for
self-culture. To read d novel hurried
~, just for the sake Of knowing how
il comes OUT is only a waste of time
and brain power. Good novels are
worth reading, but they should leave
something in the mind besides he
story, or they are better left unread.

LONE OAK SCHOOL
COSTING NOTHING
SINCE THIS suit
Arcadia Residents Establish
Fact That II is Most
Populous.
School Consolidation Suit
Heard Today.
ARGUMENTS SET FOR FRIDAY.

The injunction suit brought by
residents of Arcadia to dissolve the
consolidation of the Lone Oak, Ar
cadia and Lang school houses, was
heard this morning by Judge Will
liam Reed in the circuit court. Sew
eral witnesses, Including County
Superintendent S. ]. Ellington, were
heard, but the attorneys for both
sides agreed to continue the question
until Friday morning at $3.50 o'clock,
when the arguments will be made for
and against the consolidation.
The court room was crowded with
residents Of the three school divisions
this morning. Secretary Peter Straub
of the county school board, was also
present. Superintendent Ellington
was the first witness to take the
stand and was questioned as to
the advantage OF consolidating the
schools in the three divisions, which
are Nos. 2, and s. Mr.. Billington's
testimony was interrupted, when the
attorneys representing the residents
of Arcadia asked for him to bound
the three districts. This he was I'M
able to do orally and a short inter-
mission was held until he secured his
books. Then he read the boundaries
of the divisions.
He stated that the most densely
settled district was Arcadia. He told
that II was first agreed to pay 500
for the Lone Oak school, where the
sessions of the consolidated school
are held, until the time OF the injunc-
ton proceedings. Later II was set
tied that the school should cost moth
ing.
Thomas Torian and NJ. o. Potter
were witnesses, who told that the
consolidated school at Lone Oak was
some distance out of the way from
the most densely populated district.
Attorneys representing the county
were ID. II. Hughes. S. ]. Ellington
and County Attorney Alben Barley,
while Attorneys Bradshaw and Brad
shaw and Tom Crlce represented the
residents who brought the injunc-
ton.
II has closed down the school at
Lone Oak temporarily.

house this morning and on motion
of Magistrate C. w. Emery County
Road Supervisor Thompson was in

In addition he was directed to in

road question provoked a speech
from County Judge Lightfoot. And
he said the wooden culverts had be-

The Senate Debate.

Washington, Aug. 3.-Beginning
it's consideration of the conference
reports on the tariff bill by a tedious
reading of that document, which was
insisted upon by the senators who
proposed to see that undue haste is
not exercised in the final passage of
the measure, the senate dragged
along during nearly seven hours
without any important result.
The developments which have oc-
Cured in respect to the framing of
the leather schedule in conference,
called forth more interest than did
other proceedings of the day. The
senators spent much time in dis
cussing the language and the effect
of that schedule.
The debate on the conference re-
port was opened by Senator Daniel,
who claimed that the Democratic
senators on the finance committee
had been dealt with unfairly, in not
being permitted to vote in committee
on the adoption of the report. He
claimed the agreement for that pur-
pose entered into by Chairman Aid
rich had been violated. Any inten-
tional violation was disavowed by
Aldrich who said he could not agree
with Daniel as to what had occurred
between them.
Regarding the exclusion of the
Democratic members of the confer
ence, Senator DanieI said that prac-
teal fraud had been committed on
congress.
THE country and it's institutions
stand between the gallows and the
ground" declared Daniel.
81 hope mercy may be found. j
charge that the senate is apparently
in control of a lynch law. A solemn
and honored bond was entered into
by word of mouth between the chair
man of the finance committee and
the Democratic conferees that they
would be called as soon as a report
was ready to permit them to cast a
vote. 1t seems strange that we
should be given a pledge and for
some reason that pledge be unre-
deemed. The alleged report of the
conference committee is bogus paper
and has no more validity than a
counterfeit note"
Aldrich said he had no idea that
any member expected there would
be another meeting of the committee
and said he never promised that the
