years, said they could do nothing to
help me and gave me morphine TO ease
the pain.
"A friend then recommended DR..
Williams Pink Pills and began tax

Frank [. Smart of Davenport.

In a very scholarly address Presi-
dent Smart. taking for the title OF his
talk Public Schools and Some of its
Critics" told of some of the meth
eds being used and some of the shoals
and rocks encountered, stating that an
attempt for improvement was sure to
rrecipitate storm. He said that the
pulbic's faith in education was as
strong as its faith in the American
dollar but that education and educa-
tional advancement meant one thing
to those interested in its advance
ment and something adverse usually
to the parents of the pupils to be
helped He said that the aim OF com
plete education is to prepare for com
plete living which consists Of help
ftilness, happiness. clean moral lives,
and usefulness to fellow creatures
The little red school house on every
hill might well be taken as our ma
tional emblem today At the present
time because of the vast increase in
school enrollments, there is lack of
accommodations in many states and
one school must serve for pupils at
tending the morning sessions and those
in the afternoon. In this manner the
child has not the advantage of those
in larger schools where more hours
per day can be used in study.

The seventeenth annual session of
the Southeastern Iowa Teachers AS
ISOLATION opened UP in full force last
evening with an enrolment of over
750 and with additions being made
with the arrival o. each train today.
The visiting delegates are being shown
q royal time by the Keokull teachers
and nothing but praise has been heard
for their treatment at the hands of the
keokuk people, many OF whom are
attending the programs and displaying
AS much interest as their guests. All
OF the officers and chairmen of com
mittees we're in the city last evening
and the program has heen moving
with only one slight hitch. The fact
that DIR. A. E. Winship of Boston was
unable to be present made it neces-
sarv to change the address OF Pro
fessor Wilcox of the State University
on What is an Education in Iowa in
1912 to this evening to fill the ad-
dress of DIR. Winship.
Chairman of Executive Committee,
Cap e. Miller, of Sigourney, took
charge of the convention last evening
and after short musical program
composed of two selections on the
pipe organ by Miss Sally B. Ander-

Morning Session.

This mornings session opened I'D at
S:4o with new arrivals present for the
rest of the session. Weather condi-
tons made the general atmosphere
and continuance of the local com
mittee change to be in tune. After a
short musical program and announce
ments by Professor VIM. Aldrich.
State Superintendent Hon. A. NJ. De,
Yoe was introduced and gave TO the
teachers general idea OF the plan he
was pursueing and the difficulties en-
countered and what he was trying to
do. He stated that his policy would
be in accordance with the recon-
mendations of former state superin-
tendents-that an attempt would be
made to push Iowa forward in all
matters educational
He stated that the sentiment at
tached to the Little Old School
House was great hinderance to
educational advancement. There is no
more need or sense of having one
school to each four sections of land
than there is of having a bank for
each farmer in the four sections. Mr..
DeYoe expressed himself as being
very much in favor of the township
schools. He said that better schools
must be provided for the farmers.
Better rural school and incidentally
better social conditions, will solve
many of the economic problems OF
the present day. They will keep the
boys on the farm, induce our urban
population to settle more widely, and

cities, where she made small purchases
and paid in bills or coin of large de-
nominations, receiving the change in
good money. The end came when one
of the gang was arrested at Lock
Haven. The proof of his guilt was
positive and he confessed and gave a
full account of all the operations on
North Creek. Another of the gang
was in the court house and heard the
confession. In thirty minutes he was
on Shorse back, headed for Stuttles,
seventy-five miles away. He changed
horses three times on the way up and
reached North Creek twenty four hours
in advance of the officers who were
sent to make the arrests. SHUTTLE
would not believe that the man arrest
ed at Lock Haven would give him
away and he made no effort to escape.
The officers came, but when one of
the Sheriffs went up stairs and looked
for the loose floor boards, SHUTTLE made
a break for the woods. He ran quiet a
distance before they caught him and
put the handouts on. The officers
then loaded up the whole outfit, in :
Guiding the prisoners, and drove to
Emporium. They remained over night
at LaGrand Cooks Hotel and left the
next morning for Lock Haven.
The older readers will remember the
disastrous financial panic that swept
over the country in 1857. Great busi-
ness houses went under and more than
half the banks failed and closed their
doors but the boys used to say at that
time that Stuttle's bank stood up and
did not suspend specia payment for a
moment.
Following 1867, in the next few years,
more than twenty-five young men
went from my old home in Silver Lake
for the pine woods of the Sinnamahon-
ing, to work in the various branches of
numbering. The majority of these are
dead. Among the living are my dear
old friend M. T. Hogan, my cousin
Michael McGraw and my brother D. c..
Hayes, who are residents of Empori-
um. My brother, Thomas w. aayes,

BOARD OF TRADE
HARD AT WORK
SHALL WE SECURE THE PIPE MILL
Its Up to Every Property Owner and
Waqe Earner.

Emporium Board of Trade in
conjunction with our citizens,
have been actively at work during
the past week, endeavoring to close
a contract for the locating of an
extensive manufacturine plant at
Emporium, employing at the out
set from fifty to sixty men.
Last Thursday evening, at a
special meeting of the Board of
Trade, the committee consisting OF
Hon. Geo. J. LaBar, G. j. Good
nough, Esq. Hon. Josiah Howard
and Andrew Brady, Esq, were au-
thorized to meet the firm at Phila-
delphia. The committee made the
trip east, returning on Sunday,
having made a very satisfactory
agreement, which was ratified at a
meeting of the Board of Trade,
Monday evening. The following
were appointed a committee to
solicit subscriptions: Hon. Geo.
j. LaRar,C. Jay Goodnough, Esq,
president and Secretary of the
Board } Hon. Josiah Howard, Allen
Baldwin. and d. A. Mcdonald.
The enthusiastic expressions of
our citizens in favor of the project
should be taken as an indication
of success. Let all give literally
and aid in the advancement of our
town. Let us all push-not hold
back and hunt for an excuse to
withhold your assistance. We
firmly believe Emporium will rap
idly forge to the front and that
other industries will resultfrom Sc
curing this important industry.
1t is fair to estimate that at least
twenty-five families will locate
here-at least one-half of the en-
ployees being skilled mechanics.
The committee have secured an
option on the Hacket mill site and
a plot of land near Howard q Co.'S
old mill. The former will prob
ably be accepted.
NOW PUSH.

In Grateful Remembrance.

To the Editor Of the Cameron County Press
was panied to hear of the death of
my old time friend, Hon. N. P. Minard,
which occurred recently at Emporium.
The first time met Mr.. Minard was in
the fall of 1857, at which time I went
to work in his saw mill, which was To-
Gated on the Portage Creek, about one
mile from Emporium. I worked in his
mill the greater part of the following
three years and each of these years we
made two trips down the river on
RATS, as far as Marietta or Columbia.
At that time there were.no railroads
through that country, consequently
