OUR RURAL SCHOOLS.

In an address before the Missouri
rural life conference, Mr.. Fairchild,
Kansas state superintendent Of
schools, declared that politics should
be divorced from the rural schools.
His address was also pointed along
the line that, in Kansas, the country
school was behind the city school In
It's efforts to better the condition OF
the pupil.
1.-THE rural school is laggard In
the educational procession" he said.
'The average age of teachers in them
il less than 20 years and from one
third to one half Of the teachers en-
pIoyed have had no previous expert
ence in teaching. II schools Of the
right kind are provided for country
boys and girls they will remain at
home. At least they will remain un-
I'll their general education IL COM
pleted; and after that there will be
time enough to cultivate special gifts.
THE old time country school with
its large attendance Of mature pu-
bills ana It's male teacher in the win
ter term aas been replaced BY 81
small school in which the pupils are
kite children. The older and more
ambitious scholars have followed the
good teacher to the city, and often
he family follows. II this emisra-
ion continues the country Win Be
,apped Of lts vitality"

a team. The parties claim that when
they come up behind fellow with
a team he stubbornly refuses to give
any Of the road, no matter II there
is plenty Of room to turn out. Sow
the law recognizes their right OF
both the man with the team and
the man with the auto and these
rights should be expected. There
are plenty of men who are running
autos who should be driving OK
teams and vice versa, but all men
should not be treated that way. The
law says that when a man is over
taken by a faster vehicle, the man
with the slower vehicle shall turn
out and give half OF the beaten path.
Lebanon Times.
A good instance Of propriety of
the above article happened near Be-
lott some time ago. A physician was
called to a home about fifteen miles
south of Beloit to care for a boys
arm which was believed to be broken,
but was in reality, only sprained.
The doctor was going fast in his
auto and caught up with a man In
a buggy; the road was rough and
the physician 'honked" several
times trying to persuade the man
in the buggy to turn out and let
him pass but could not do 1t; the
doctor started around in his auto;
broke 1t in the rough road and was
delayed nearly an hour by repairing.
The man in the buggy drove on.
\ When the doctor finally arrived
at the home Of the injured boy he
found his friend who wouldn't turn
out, there In the house all excited
and wondering why the physician
did not come. The fellow who had
been in the buggy did not know his
boy lhad been injtred, but when
he arrived home and found the sit
uation he was impatient because the
doctor did not come. for he knew
the doctor whom his wife called had
an auto.
The moral is simply this: The
autosIst had as much right in the
road as anyone else and is generally
not trying to harm anyone at least.
He pays a license to the state and
should be given half the road. 1t
amounts merely to one man doing
another a favor. A great many do
give the autoist his share Of the road,
but all should do II, and probably

AVOID HARSH DRUGS
Many Catllartics Tend TO Cause Injury
10 the Bowels.

IT you are subject to constipation,
you should avoid strong drugs and
cathartics. They only give temporary
relief and their reaction is harmful
and sometimes more annoying than
constipation. They in no way effect
cure and their tendency is to weaken
the already weak organs with which
they come in contact.
We honestly believe that we have
the best constipation treatment ever
devised. Our faith in IL is so strong
that we sell it on the positive guar
antee that it shall not cost the user a
cent If 1t does not give entire satisfac-
ton and completely remedy cOnstipa-
ton. This preparation is called Rex

soothing, and most effective in action.
They are made of recent chemical
discovery. Their principal ingredient

IOWA TRADE MARK DECIDED.
Head of Hawk Imposed Upon Il
Wheel is the Design Accepted,
With the Legend "Aiade
i'm Iowa."

The trim built head of a hawk
with cleaning eye, imposed upon a
wheel with spokes, and the legend
Made in Iowa" blazoned upon a
lower flange, is the official and copy
righted Iowa trade mark in use by
the members of the Iowa manufac-
tsrers association.
This significant trade mark will
have the protection of the law of the
state and the federal copyright laws.
No person will be at liberty to use
the same save those who are given
authority from the state association.
But it will be used widely enough
and is sure to become recognized as
a badge of merit and a guarantee of
high quality.
The suggestion in the emblem is
the wheel which typifies industry
and the making of things and eye
of the hawk is distinctively the Iowa
emblem. The trade mark was vir-
tually devised by the board of direc-
tors of the state association, as q
compromise between various sugges-
tions, taking parts of each one and
making a trade mark which all who
were present at the meeting held re-

McNAMARAS PLEAD GUILTY.
Great Los Angeles Times Dynamiting
Case Ends Abruptly With the
Confession of Mcnamara
Brothers.

James B. Mcnamara pleaded guilty
Friday at Los Angeles, CAL, of the
murder of twenty-one men by the plac-
ing of bomb under the Los Angeles
Times building on Oct. 1, 1910, and
his brother, John j. Mcnamara, sec
retary-treasurer of the International
Association of Bridge and Structural
Iron Workers, pleaded guilty to hav-
ing caused the explosion of the
Llewellyn Iron Works, and one of
the greatest cases in criminal annals
came to an end; case which at
tention of the entire world.
For years the Los Angeles Times
has been combating the labor
unions, and has kept open shop"
On Oct. 1, 1910 a terrible explosion
ruined the building and killed twen-
ty-one persons. At the same time
bombs were found at the home of
General Harrison Gray Otis, proprie-
tor of the Times, and Felix Zeehan-
delaar, secretary Merchants and
Manufacturers Association. Suspic-
ion at once was directed to the labor
unions, although it was claimed that
the explosion came from within the
building. AS the investigation pro-
ceeded, motives were found for var
ious explosions, murders and crimes
of lesser natures in different parts
Of the country. w. J. Burns, the
famous government detective, was
put on the case, and the net soon
began to tighten about the McNam-
ara brothers, and the Office of John
greatest unions. Ortie E. McMani-
igal confessed to having blown up
the Llewellyn Iron Works at Los
Angeles, in Dec. 1910, at the direc-
ton of John ]. Mcnamara, and soon
afterward the Mcnamara brothers
were arrested, charged with murder
The case proceeded very slowly, oc-
cupying the attention of the entire
country, until Friday, when the con-
LESSONS of the two brothers brought
it to an end.
Since the confession it has de-
veloped that the first juror sworn in
the case was paid $400 and promised
$4,000 more by a detective employed
by the defense to vote for an acquit-
tai or secure disagreement of the
jury. Two other similar cases have
also been uncovered, showing about
$4,000 offered to bride the jury.
The details of the maneuvers of
the McNamaras and those associated
with them and the numerous crimes
charged to them either directly or
indirectly are familiar to nearly
everyone, and the outcome of the
case removes all doubt of the plac-
ing of the crimes upon the shoulders
of these unionists. Their atrocious
crimes and the motives that prompt
ed them will not soon be forgotten.
