THE HIGH SCHOOL
WILL DEBATE
First of Series of Debate Will Take
Place Next Friday Evening at
Opera House..
EIGHT SCHOOLS REPRESENTED
Denison Will be Represented by Mar
jorie Sims, Ethel Cook and
Charles HeIsIey.

The first series of debates in the
Iowa High School Debating league
for the southwest district will be held
on Friday evening of this week. The
schools belonging to this section lof
the association are Winterset, Adel
Clarinda, Tabor, Shenandoah, Bed.
ford, Missouri Valley and Denison
Denison and Missouri Valley will meet
again in the first series. This debate
will be held in the opera house be.
ginning at 7:30. The question for dis
cussion is: Resolved, That graduated
income tax with an exemption of all
incomes below five thousand dollars
per annum would be a deliberate mod
ification Of our federal taxation laws.
Denison will defend the negative side
of the question. In the past Missouri
Valley has always defeated Denison
in debate, but our speakers have been
working hard on this question and are
determined to break the hoodoo this
time. A full opera house of sympa-
thetc listeners will do much toward
accomplishing this purpose. Let ev-
eryone interested in the high school
come and by his presence encourage
the speakers. This debate will elm
mate four of the schools. The other
four will be paired for another tryout
in two weeks. The two winners in
this second test will then debate for
the championship of the district. In
this way the champion team of each
of the four districts of the state is
selected. Then the four districts COM
pete in the same way for the chap.s
pionship of the state. The speakers
are: Affirmative, William Welch, Juli-
us Muller and Herman Hoyer; Mega
tive, Marjorie Sims, Ethel Cook and
Charles Helsley. After the debate the
senior class will give a banquet in

met for the first time Mary l.. Com
fort, who afterward became his wife
and who still survives him. The sec
Ond night after his advent into the
county Mr. McHenry spent at the
home OF Benjamin Dobson, near what
is now the town of Deloit. He was
soon offered the position of deputy sur
veyor, which he accepted and at the
following election in the fall of 1856
was elected county surveyor and then
entered upon his life work. The in
come from the Office, however, was SO
small and the demand upon his time
so limited that he organized pay
school in the Masons' Grove neighbor
hood, which he taught during the win
ter of 1856 and 1857 in log school
house fitted up by Joseph Dobson and
himself This was the first school in
the county.
Mr.. McHenry was a charter member
of the first church organized in the
county, which occurred in the fall of
1856, it being the NJ. f. church, OF
which he has ever since been a de-
voted and faithful member. In the
spring of 1857 he assisted in organ
izing the first Sunday school in the
county and became one Of it's teachers.
In April, 1857, he was elected county
assessor and assessed the whole cOun-
ty in less time than it now requires
to assess a township, the total
charges for the work being but $50.5O.
In the fall of 1857 he was elected
county treasurer and recorder, the
two offices at the time being united.
He surveyed the town of Denison
in the fall Of 1857. In May, 1858, Mr..
McHenry moved to Denison, where he
resided a considerable portion of his
time since then. He was elected
superintendent of the NJ. E. Sunday
school, a position which he priced as
highly as any other office he ever
held, and continued in the Office until
1877, when he moved on to his farm
near Dow City.
On Dec. 25, 1859, he was married to
Mary L. Comfort, and to this union
were born five children; the first
born, girl, passing away at the age
of ten months. Those living are
William c., Charles, May (now Mrs.
Wider), and Morris McHenry, Jr.
There are thirteen grandchildren and
three great grandchildren. The gold
en- wedding of Mr. and Mrs. McHenry
was celebrated on Dec. 25, 1909, at

DISTRICT COURT
NEXT MONDAY
Will Convene at One O'clock With
Judge Powers on the Bench for
Three Weeks Term.
JURY EMpANELLED ON MONDAY
First Case Will be That of Sscher vs.
Carroll County-Other Important
Cases Following.

District court will convene again on
next Monday in the regular January
session. Judge Powers, of Carroll,
will be on hand to dispense justice
during the three weeks of the term.
There are large number of import
ant cases to be tried or otherwise dis
posed Of. 1t is probable a number
of cases will be continued over the
term and until the March session of
the court on account of sickness and
the inability Of litigants and witnesses
to attend court.
The first business on Monday will
be the empaneling Of the grand jury,
which will have but little to do as
there are no criminal cases of any
Importance in sight. There are two
or three civil cases specially assigned
for trial on the arrival of the trial
;urv on the second Monday OF the
term. The first case is that OF Ecsher
rs. Carroll County. which is an action
for damages growing out OF alleged
defects in a county bridge. Tl.is case
was tried here two or three years ago
and the judgment then rendered was
reversed by the supreme court and
the case remanded for new trial.
The other case is that of Mollie Kuhn
against John Saggau ct al, and is an
action to recover an interest in real
estate on the south side of Broadway.
There are a number of other cases
marked for trial and which will prob
ably be tried later on during the term.
1t is anticipated the term will be a
busy one and that large amount of
business will be disposed Of before
the final adjournment.

SALOON PETITIONS
ARE CANVASSED
All of This Week Taken up by Board
of Supervisors in Matter Of Sa-
loon Petitions.
kIRoN LOSES IN THE CANVASS
Manila Will Again Have Saloons A.
ter Two Years of Dryness-Few-
er Saloons Within S Years.

The board of supervisors has been
engaged this week in canvassing the
saloon petitions circulated short
time ago in the county. When the Pc
titions were circulated two years ago
and found to have carried in the
county at large there were two towns
which failed to secure the requisite
number of signers to permit the sale
of Intoxicating liquors. These towns
were Manila and kiron. 1t was after
wards believed that if another attempt
was made these places would show
enough signers to enable saloons to
run in both places. 1t was neces-
sary, however, under the law, in order
to furnish an opportunity for these
towns to make a showing, to have the
petition circulated generally through
out the county to ascertain if IS per
cent of the legal voters at the last
general election are in favor of grant
ing the privilege.
The showing. it appears, in the coun
ty is sufficient as more than IS per
cent Of all the voters have expressed
themselves as favorable to the traffic
but is not so clear that the requisite
number of signers have been secured
to permit saloons in both Kiron and
Manila. The latter place won
out but not so in kiron, where
there are said to be six short
OF the required number. This
means that kiron will continue to re-
main dry town. The effect of the
new petition carrying in the county
will be to extend the privilege to
saloons now running to continue two
years longer than if the showing had
in substance that the privilege once
not been made, as the law provides
granted shall remain in force five
years. The proba bilities. however,
are that a reduction of the number

MORRIS MCHENRY
PASSES AWAY
Dies Very Suddenly Monday Night at
His Home in Town of
Dow City.
HEART FAILURE is THE CAUSE
Although He had Contracted a Slight
Cold He Was Not Otherwise III.
Death Is a Severe Shock.

Morris McHenry, familiarly called
"Uncle Norris" died at his home at
Dow City on Monday night a short
time after midnight. While on &C.
count of his extreme age and gener-
ally failing condition those who knew
him best felt that he would not long
survive, his death was sudden in the
sense that he had shown no symptoms
to indicate that the hour of dissOlu-
ton was so near. He had complained
for a few days of cold, but not suf-
ticient to alarm his friends or to
keep him indoors. AS late as Sunday
last he attended church as usual and
taught his class in Sunday school. He
had plans made to come to Denison
on Monday but decided on account
of his cold not to venture out. lie
Monday evening and after eating a
hearty supper retired at the usual
time. About midnight he complained
of not feeling we'll and suggested that
his physician be called, which was
done, and an examination made, with
the result that no unfavorable or
alarming symptoms were discovered.
Soon after this, however, he grew
weaker and about two o'clock passed
away. Whether his death was the re-
suit of heart disease or was caused
by stroke of paralysis has not been
determined. There are many sad
hearts in the community since his
death, for Mr.. McHenry was one of
the Oldest settlers in the county and
well and favorably known by very
large circle of friends
