ork: 10000 in Chicago; 100, 900 in
Philadelphia; $4,000 in Boston; $4,000

n Doaa Not PAL.

Quarrel not at all. No man who
resolves to maze the most Of himself
can spare time for personal conten
ton. Still less csn he AFFORD to take
all the consequences. including the
vitiating of his temper and the loss
of self-control. Yield larger things
to which you can show no more than
equal right, and yield lesser ones
though clearly your own. Better give
your path to do, than be bitten by
him in contesting for the right Even
killing the dor would not cure the
bite"

The Weather and the Shoe Trade

AS hong as tie ground is dry the
old shoes do not show their hidden
weaknesses and defects, but let a
nea~y. cold rain. or even a slight snow
fall arrive, and then the almost in.
visible cracks in the uppers and the

their pregnability. and the rush to
the shoe store will amount almost to

SCHOOL BOARD URGES
PARENTS TO SEND CHILDREN

\ meeting of the school board held
Tuesday to consider the probable
cause OF so many absent pupils from
the schools and to consider what
course might be pursued to procure
Iull attendance for the remainder
of the school year.
From conferences with school p:-
irons by individual members OF the
board it seems that some are asbent
from school because of being out of
town for one reason or another.
Some because of not being informed
that school was in session this week
but more from fear of parents that
there is still danger from scarlet few
er contagion.
Much of the fear is but incidental
to natural timidity, but considerable
from misunderstanding of circum-
stances Of quarantine. The board
had session with the health Of
fcer and learned from him that the
quarantine continues with the fam
lilies that had the disease and none
Of them will be permitted to minsle
with others nor attend scnool until
all danger is past. Then their cloth
ing will be burned and the premises
thoroughly fumigated for safety.
There will be no more danger, there
fore, in attending school than in re-
naming at home or going about
town.
The board is anxious that every
child shall attend school every day
as the apportionment of state funds
depends upon the attendance. At
the meeting the board appointed
Calhoun truant officer and decided
that general notice should be Civ
en- informing all parents and guard
ians of children that the teachers
are anxious for general attendance
so their pupils may be prepared to
pass their grades.
Also that the law fixes severe pen
alties for failure of parents to send
all children IN their families, between
the ages of eight and fifteen years

FINLEY WILL BUILD
NEW SCHOOL HOUSE
BONDS VOTED BY LAR6E MAJOR
ITY AT SPECIAL ELECTION

The Finley School District No. IL
last Saturday voted bonds in the
amount of $40, 900 for a new school
building. The new building will
be of brick and on plans large
enough to make eight school rooms.
The lower story of four rooms will
be built at once and covered over
until such time as there is need for
the additional four rooms on the
Second floor. The heating and
ventilating plant which will be in
stalled will be large enough for the
entire building when completed.
The Finley Schools have always
been excellent and the voting of the
bonds shows that the patrons intend
to keep them up to the highest
standard.

HOR7ICULT TURE OFFICE SOON HERE

F. \. Huntly, state commissioner
of horticulture, was in town Tues
day to make arrangements to move
his office here from Tacoma. After
a conference with the CONNER
cial Club it was decided to build an
office building on plans suggested
by Mr.. Huntley. The new building
will be of concrete with a large
public office in front where fruit
and product display will be kept
the year round. Two smaller rooms
in the rear for private Offices and a
cellar fitted for laboratory work.
John Rudkin offered sites on Wash
ington street near Fifth and also on
Third Street between Tacoma and
Pacific Streets. The latter will
probably be selected. The Develop
ment Co. will likely erect the build
ing and lease it 10 the state for two
years under agreement to purchase
when the next legislature meets.
