Gods word tells us THE wages
of Sin is death.
What is Sin? 1t is the fore

Sin brought death to Adam and

Man Who Lived In, House 70 Years,
Gets Tired, Moves

Jesse Jones, Is, one of the
early aldermen of Fort Worth
and formely tax assessor of Tar
rant county, is moving today
from the house at East Fourth
and Pecan street that has shelf
cred him since he came to Fort
Worth in 1871, and which in all
probility is the oldest residence
in the city.
When Mr.. Jones came to Fort
Worth from North Carolina
there Acre few houses and all
were occupied. He therefore
set about the construction of the
home that he has occupied until
today.
The timb for the house was
hauled from Jefferson, Texas,
on OK wagons, and cost $65 per
200 feet. But the quality was
good, if the price was high, and
all these years the house has
stood firm and even now is in
good condition.
Mr.. Jones established and for
many years operated q general
store at Main and Weatherford
streets, on the site now occupied
by the Ellison building.
He has many relitives in Fort
Worth, being now a great-grand,
father.
Il just took a notion to move, "
said the pioneer Wednesday.

A NEE ting held at Madison,
Wis, short time ago for the
promotion of the general use
of school buildings as social and
civic centers was attended by
some of the ablest men in
America, including Gov. Wood
row Wilson, of New Jersey, who
may be the next President Of
the United States.
The rural and village schools
should, and must, become the
centers of attraction in every re-
spective community. All of
them should be provided with
libraries for the benefit of the
school and of the public. All
kinds of meetings of a harmless,
elevating character should be
held in the school building A
fund should be provided by the
different counties to pay for lee
lures by intelligent men and
women upon Agriculture, Domes
tic Science and other subjects OF
special interest to the people in
the different communities in each
county.
In this way the school can be
made a source of great pleasure
and benefit to all who live in
it's vicinity. What becomes a
part of the school ever tually be
comes a part Of the life of the
people in that region; hence
everything good and elevating
should become part of the
school. Progressive Teacher
Because we desire so strongly
to have each school house in
Marion county become a social
center; we have urged that all
new school buildings be commod-
ious in size. The school build
ing has not served it's full pur.
pose, when it has given shelter
to pupils six or seven months in
the year. 1t should be a club
house for the adults Of the com
munity. This is another reason
why the school house and ground
should be made beautiful.

The deadly feather buster is
rapidly being banished from our
public schools. Among the l, 30S
cities from which reports were
received, 643, or over sixty per
cent are using moist cloths for
busting purposes, and 1874, or
close to ninty per cent, are using
misunderstanding compounds for
sweeping. In the forefront of
progress with respect to the
adaptation of modern sanitary
appliances, are eightyseven CT
ties that are cleaning their school
rooms by vacuum cleaners.
Thirty three of these cities are
in the North Atlantic States,
and thirty seven in the South
