The work and progress Of the
past year is gratifying in many re-
spects. The enrolment has exceed
ed that of the previous year by 103
pupils. The average attendance in
the rural and semi-graded schools
was 100 days against IS days the
year before. Both Of these advances
are undoubtedly due in part, to the
influence of the new compulsory ed
vocational law.
While the average school term of
the past year was somewhat short
ened in anticipation Of a hardship
that would follow the enforcement
of the present law, it has neyerthe-
less been found that the main fea-
lures of the law are good. The
people realizing that it is not the
intention Of the law to work a hard
ship upon anyone, have seen fit to
vote long terms again for the COM
ing year.
During the past year and present
summer four new school houses
have or are being built. Very
marked advancement was made in
the way Of improving inadequate
ventiIating systems and installing
new ones. Up to date all school
houses in the county, except four,
have ventilating systems. During
the past summer thirteen new sys-
TENS were installed and four furnace
systems have been remodelled in or
der to be adequate in their capacity.
This goes to show that school officers
appreciate the Importance of guard
ing the health Of the children.
The demand for first grade teach
ers has been increasing. During the
past four years from so to IS per
cent of the teachers in the rural and
semi-graded schools held first grade
certificates. However, for the COM
ing year we shall have at least 10
per cent holding first grades.
The school at Delhi has advanced
from the semi-graded to the graded
list, having four departments. The

Mrs. Ross r. Smith Barely Escapes
From Residence Near EIkton
The handsome residence on the
farm of Ross R. Smith, near Elkton,
was totally destroyed by fire and
Mrs. Smith made a narrow escape
from being caught by the flames. She
was confined to bed by illness and
the flames had gained quite head
way before they were discovered.
Mrs. Smith was too i'll to walk and
had to be carried out on a bed. Just
exactly how the fire originated is
not known, the supposition being
that mice or rats had carried
matches between the weather. board
ing and plaster and ignited them,
the flames bursting out in the second
story. Neighbors noticing the flames
hurried to the scene and a consider
able portion of the household furni-
ture was saved. The loss is esti-
mated at about SO, 500, partially
covered by insurance.

REPUBLICAN vlRILITY

Mitchell Republican: The re-
publican party cammends itself to
the voters because it represents what
IL practicable of accomplishment.
1t is the majority party and therefore
the party that does things. For this
reason it has vitality when an
opposition party acting simply as a
receptacle for dissatisfaction cannot
have 1t. Itattracts the vlriIe public
spirits who want better government.
It is certain to have sharply ac-
centuated differences because it's
discussions are neither idle nor
academic. Only when the voters
are denied opportunity to protest
except by supporting the opposite
party will the republicans be likely to
lose control. Therefore it is to the
interest of the party to invite freedom
Of thought and suggestion by its
members.

PARTY UNITE ON PLATFORM

Congressman Martin has this to
say about the republican platform:
THE progressives had a majority
Of the delegates, but there were two
factions among them, one conserya-
tive, the other radical, and the con-
servatives among all the delegates
present, both stalwarts and progress
siyes, were in the majority, and
joined in the endeavor to adopt a
platform that all republicans can
unite in the present campaign, said
Mr.. Martin, in referring to the pro-
ceedings Of the convention.
1.-THE platform adopted expresses
approval of the Taft administration
and the Roosevelt national policies
and declares for a thorough system
of regulation for all corporations en-
gagged In interstate commerce; it ap-
proves of the present state admins
tration, and pledges loyal support to
all the candidates nominated at the
recent primaries.
