Burlington Hawk-Eye: 1t certainly

Burlington is an old, old town, hut it
has not been often that such a big
bunch of fulI-blooded, live-wire fellows
have SO completely won their way into
the hearts and sympathies of its peo-
pie. The contagion of the harm ess
merrymaking of the visiting retail
merchants of Iowa has spread to even
the straightest laced residents of the
city, and yesterday evening the
streets, with their gala illumination
and flying bunting, awakened mem
cries of by gone carnival days. Tonight
when all the formal functions of the
convention are over, and the DELEGATES
are free from their deliberations and
are waiting for their trains IT, return
them to their homes, a great time is
anticipated and crowds of Burlington.

streets to pay their farewell to the
good fellows who have been the city's
guests. Regardless OF age or condi.
tons the delegates are to man like

the business sessions are over. The
gun between the dignified and scrupu-
lous parliamentary conduct observed
in TIE convention hall. to the care-free
seen everywhere on the
streets, is bridged as easily as though
1t never existed, and perhaps it really

The keokukians displayed this terse

Pupils viii Have to Attend Public
Schools Nine and one-half Months
Each Year Instead of
Only Nine.
BOARD WORKS OVERTIME
In Session Last Night From 1880 IN
till II O'clock-AIl Teachers
Have Been Reelected for
Another Year.


The school board was treated to ;
heavy meeting last evening with thu
most important business of routine
nature being the lengthening of the
school year from nine to nine and one
half months.
Only three Iowa cities have schoo
years as short as nine months. They
are Cedar Rapids, Council Bluffs and
Sioux City; those having nine and one
half are Des Moines. Ottumwa, Bur.
lington, Clinton and number of 9th.
ers; those having ten months are Mus,
catine, Davenport and Dubuque of the
larger cities.
The chief reason seemed to be that
more thorough work can be done in
the extended period. 1t Is not the in
tention to increase the number of stu
dies, but rather to do better work in
those now being taught. Very many
teachers will be highly pleased by the
change, feeling that efficiency in their
work will be greatly Increased.
All of the permanent teachers now
on the pay roll were reelected at the
same salary, except few who began
low and are gradually being raised an
nually.
The committee on building and re-
pairs was instructed to inspect the old
Mckinley school building, with view
to fitting it up for manual training
and domestic science and report to
tie next board meeting.
The action of the board week ago
In excluding only children sick with
certain contagious diseases, like
mumps, measles and chicken pox, but
allowing other children from the same
family to attend school, was rescinded
and the previous regulations are now
in force. Thus all persons living upon
premises in which any contagious dis
ease exists are excluded.
J. A. Dunlap was authorized to have
a new flag staff built at the florence
school, to replace the one struck by
lightning last Sunday evening.
The committees on teachers and sal
aries, which is full board, composed
of all members of the school board,
worked hard from 7:30 to 10 o'clock,
and then the meeting was held from
10 O'Clock until II. making stretch
of three and one-half hours
The board also decided to install do
nestle science in the schools. A re-
port Of this matter is given in anoth-
er column of this issue.

After the Rats.

AS country Germany has fewer
rats than any other in the world. This
is due to the interest taken by the
government in their destruction. IF a
boy applies to the mayor of his town
he is furnished with traps and paid
half cent for every skin he brings.
In largo tow is there are 100 boys at
work all the time. The cost of traps
and bait makes each skin cost the
government about penny, but as
every rat deftroys Ave dollars worth a
year, this makes tremendous saving.
The mice. though destructive, are
not looked after by the government.
1t is expected that every household
will protect itself. However, reward
OF penny is paid for every three
skins.
