Finds Daughter Thought Dead.

Trudging from Illinois to Nebraska,
refusing to steal ride on train,
Elmer T. Stout, forgets the pain Of
fatigue in happy anticipation of the
joy he will find at the end of his
journey. After living for fifteen
years believing that his only daugh-
ter, Margaret, was dead or lost to
him forever, Stout has only recently
learned that she is alive and well
and is living with her husband On a
farm near York, Neb. He slept in
the city Jail while in Des Moines,
having secured lodging through the
kindness of Police Captain Breeding,
and then took up his weary journey,
pressing bravely forward with the
happy knowledge that at the end he
will find the woman who was, as a
girl, stolen from him va band Of
gypsies.

Rotation of Names Fixed by Audito

Rotation of Names Fixed by Auditor.
Frank Miller, chief deputy in the
Office of County Auditor H. B. Erase,
has practically completed the big task
of rotating the names of candidates
on the primary ballots in accordance
with the recent amendment to the
primary laws. With the idea of giving
all candidates an equal chance in the
election, the last legislature provided
that in each precinct the names OF
candidates for the same Office should
be rotated in such a manner that in
precincts where one candidates name
is first, it should be last in another.
The new provision in the law requires
a separate and distinct ballot for each
precinct in the county, making sew
enty-four in all.

Seventy Per Cen. Of Corn Planted.

Seventy Per Cent Of Corn Planted.
Des Moines, Iowa.-Seventy per
cent OF the corn Is planted, according
to DR.. George M. Chappel's weekly
crop bulletin. But the cold weather is
interfering with its termination. The
outlook for fruit is very poor but ear
ly potatoes which were frozen are
coming up strong. The bulletin fol-
lows:
The past week was unseasonably
cool, and except in the extreme south
eastern county it was abnormally dry
prior to the 18th. Frost occurred gen.
orally on the 18th, 18th and 14th, with
freezing temperature on the last date
in northern districts. There was, how
ever, more than the average amount
OF sunshine and rapid progress was
made in corn planting. Fully 70 per
cent OF the corn has been planted
with the ground generally in excel
lent physical condition, but owing to
the cold weather the seed is germi-
mating very slowly, and considerable
replanting will be done, especially in
southern districts where the ground
is damp from the heavy rains of the
previous week. Small grain and grass.
while making slow growth, are doing
as well as could be expected under
the unfavorable conditions and some
Improvement is reported. Early pota-
toes which were frozen in April are
coming up again and are looking well.
The prospects for fruit are very poor.
The week closes with rain falling in
all parts of the state.

Discuss Mooted Educational Question
Notwithstanding all of the state
wide agitation to the contrary and the
movement started by Mrs. B. F. Car
roll, wife of Iowa's chief executive,
for the teaching of sociology in the
public schools, DR.. Pauline Meyers
Townsend of Marshalltown declared
to the Medical Society that such
instruction should be entrusted only
to the most competent of medical
specialists.
"The teacher has neither time nor
inclination to study the subject, much
less teach it, and not one-tenth of our
teachers would be competent to teach
the subject correctly" said DR.. Town
send emphatically. She was discuss
ing a paper on the subject of tuber-
culosis presented by DR.. William G.
Carhart of Marion. DR.. Townsend in
her discussion widened the subject
to include a campaign of agitation
and education as preventive against
infection of social diseases. AS a
part Of the educational campaign she
would have the subject of sociology
taught in the public schools, not by
the teachers, but by the most skilled
and learned specialists in the COM
munity.
'The time will come" she declared,
when we will make a specially of
this kind of teaching in our schools.
When the question will be taught
right and the children taught to think
of the future and the consequences
of the most insidious diseases that
can affect mankind"
