velous intellect and doggedness which
conceived the Kongo project. He lost
money at first. but emerged rich.
1.-THE whole trouble in the Kongo

Great clumps of trees and lawns and
viatas of blue grass cover the 24-acre
campus OF the John Swaney consoli-
dated school in Magnolia township.
n1tEam county Nothing but pictures
or a personal visit could give one a
fir idea of its beauty and enjoyment
al education these grounds impart
to tae boys and girls who work and
Tl2y there.
There is a barn for "a horses. the
janitor's house and a school garden
which the children kept Up throughout
the summer vacation. Adjoining the
campus is the university soil expert
ment field of six acres where the re-
suits furnish the pupils a valuable OBJ
ject lesson, and nearby an abandoned
school house which has been remodel
ed for a teachers home, where the
( five teachers live and study and en-
ploy a housekeeper. The campus was
donated by John Swaney.
A Really Rural High School.
A first-class accredited high school
! is one of the greatest features secured
by this consolidation, and it is made
doubly valuable to the rural community
by having agriculture. wood work and
domestic science well taught. This is
mot trade school, nor have Industrial
subjects over-balanced the others, for
all the usual studies, even including
| Latin, are taught as in the best city
schools. Enough is paid to secure the
tbest teachers-$100 per month for the
principal and S65 for each of the four
assistants. Village schools in the
county pay men $75 to 500, and coun-
TRY schools about $50. Women get $45
to sos throughout the county.
The Attendance and the Cost.
While the total number of children
of school age in the district is 80 by
the reasurer's record, the enrolment
last year was 1O6 and the average at
! tendance 50. The enrolment so far
this school year is 100 and the average
attendance the first three months, 90.

THE BEST COUNTRY SCHOOL
Magnolia Township,

Isn't that a good record? There are IS
tuition pupils (and many others may
come Jan. y paying $3.50 per month.
The total cost of running the school
the year of 190S-1909 was $500 in
Guiding $4,000 or more building tax.
When the wagons are run they cost
$720 per year. But this first-class
school requires a tax rate of $2.45 for
educational purposes and $1.20 for
building, while other village schools of
the county. not at all to be compared
with the John Swaney school. are pay
ing the following rates for education
and building: Granville, $3.50, 81; Hen
nepin, $3.50, 40 cents: Mark, S195,
S1.S2; McNabb, s2.OS. 90 cents. OF the

4,5OO were paid by the tax of the first
two years. $1,000 by subscription and

wiped out.
The Four Work Rooms.
Here in teaching the sciences they
are applied to the problems of the soil,
! the crops, the cattle and the work
shop: to the food and furnishing and
health and work of the homes and are
thus far more interesting and useful 10
the pupils. There is a well equipped
chemical laboratory and another for
the physical sciences. One of the
school rooms has two sewing ma
chimes, a long sewing table, a large
oak-paneled cooking table with IL gas
| stoves upon 1t and locker and drawer
room below for all the utensils. A
manual training room with several
work benches is in the basement; al
so, a girls play room. All equipment is
of the best quality and will be increas-
ed to meet every practical need of the
school
Assembly Room and Literary Society.
In addition to four school rooms,
there are two for Offices and library !;
the latter contains a thousand volumes
besides many government reports, and
AZ pigeon holes classified for the agri-
cultural bulletins. The hat and cloak
hooks have inclosed shelves below
them for the dinner pals, and there
are closets and lavatories. In the
third story is large auditorium where
a literary society meets every other
Friday afternoon. 1t has a fine piano
and fixtures for indoor basketball
The walls are hung with moderate
number of really artistic and educativs
pictures. The building is steam heated
and a gasoline plant furnishes gas for
lighting and for the kitchen stoves
and other laboratory purposes. An air

Did you ever look at a piece of linen
under the magnifying glass?
Or any other kind of cloth?
You'd see multitude of small threads
woven together with tiny open spaces be-
tween.
When soiled clothes are boiled, the dirt
is Just softened, not loosened.
When you rub them on the wash
board, the soft dirt is partly rubbed into
the tiny spaces between the threads and you
might rub till Doomsday without getting
it all out.
That's why clothes washed in the boil
ing, hard-rubbing way SO often muddy
or dull-looking.
They're not wholly clean.
Fels-Naptha cleanses clothes perfectly
because it attacks the dirt and dissolves it.
Breaks it up into particles, which are
easily rinsed out of the cloth meshes
Fels-Naptha Soap does this in cool or
lukewarm water.
No boiling no hard-rubbing; takes
less than half the time of the old way.
Saves the clothes; saves fuel.
When you've once tried the
Fels-Naptha way of washing in the Winter
or Summer you'll never go back to the
wash-boiler and hard rubbing.
Try it next washday.
Follow the easy directions printed on
red and green wrapper.
