The State eighth grade examina-

Nearly all of the towns of the
county have hired their teachers
for the coming year. A number
of the rural schools have already
hired their teachers and in very
many cases the school boards have
asked their present teachers to re-
turn next year. These things III
dictate a splendid business-like spir-
it and attitude on the part of
school boards. It is to be hoped
that teachers who accept these Of
fers will have the s~teadfastness
and honor to abide by their agree
ment.

from the DetrOlt news.
The housewife who complained that
she had longed for ten years to possess
a brass bed, but now that she can get
one she discovers that she wants Ma
poleon bed in mahogany" has unwilling
ly summed up the whole phenomenon OF
human life. Practically all of our pleas
ures come from anticipation. Realization
is much less colorful and pleasurable.
The woman who had pictured for years
a nice solid brass bed sitting on her rose
toned carpet beside the mahogany dress
ing table, and had warmed her spirit in
the roseate flames OF that anticipation,
has practically exhausted all the posi-
bilities in the ownership of such a treas
ure The treasure itself amounts to
much less. 1t is so with life. In youth
we look forward longingly to the day
when we can buy all the chocolate
creams that We can eat. but on arriving
at that delectable estate we discover
that very few satisfy us. Anticipation
dwelt upon big round seal muff, but
realization shows us that round muffs
are passe, and that, besides, mink Is the
thing We dream of an automottle-and
before 1t is realized the flying machine
appears on the horizon. Desire Is much;
realization Is little. Give us our anticipa-
lions.

SKYSCRAPER SKELETONS
SHOWING DURABILITY
inspection Made Following De-
moIition of Tall Structure
in New York.

Effect of time on steel skeletons OF
skyscrapers Is reported by the board of
surveys Of the New York fire under
writer's following observations of the
demolition of the nineteen-story Gtllen-
der building in New York city. Little
fear of collapse of such buildings is
aroused by this first opportunity for
such inspection ever afforded.
The building was one of the early
skeleton type and stood fourteen years.
The report reads. in part:
Corrosion Is Slight.
Some evidence of corrosion with slight
pitting was observed on the column In
the wall on the seventh and eighth floors
near the line of the roof Of the adjoin-
ing building, apparently due to defective
column covering. which permitted damp
ness to penetrate to the stcelwork. Cor
rosion was found on. one other column.
An additional examination Of the steel
was made while the columns and parts
OF the structure were being dismembered.
All were found in good condition, includ-
ing rivets, with minor exceptions. The
cement mortar used in connection with
the masonry work proved to have been
an excellent protection against corroSion.
building. as near as could be ascertained,
was two coats of iron oxide mixed with
hnseed oil. Where cement had come in
contact with the paint it had destroyed
the linseed oil, while on the inside OF the
column plates, where the cement mortar
did not touch the steel. the paint still
had glossy appearance. >
No Cause for Alarm.
while some of the steelwork showed
slight corrosion and pitting, there was
nothing to cause special apprehension
regarding endurance of such buildings
for an indefinite term. However, the
presence of corrosion where the steel
was exposed to the weather emphasized
the Importance OF thoroughly protecting
against moisture.
The examination showed that a COW
erinS of cement mortar protects steel
from corrosive influences better than any
form OF paint at present in use, and that

Improving the Scioto.

From the Columbus Journal.
There is an effort started to utilize
and beautify the Scioto river that flows
through thhe center Of Columbus. With
a very little expense, the volume of
water could be increased fer several
miles, SO as to make the stream q really
delightful summer resort and q scene of
social delights.
The plan for identifying Columbus SUBJ
mitted to the chamber Ct commerce some
years ago made the SciOto river the fni-
tial point from which the great improve

should be carried out at any cost. Beau
tifying and ennobling a city is the bcst
investment that can be made.
Oh. those awful Scioto banks, in front
Of the center Of town; those tattered
buildings and ragged and forlorn streets!
How can We expect the realization o..
a high ideaf while they last? Let US
hope that this little eff-rt to reinforce

some great scheme to abolish its ugli-
