proving true to every trust imposed in
him. He is strictly man of integrity
and has at all times been
GU spoken in his denunciations
of rascality from the smallest to

to do openly what his conscious has die

a gentleman in its truest sense, one for
whom the people of Adair county have
the utmost confidence and respect.
His bride comes to Columbia almost
perfect stranger, but her social stand

that in short time she will be delight

improvements at Graded School

The trustees of the Graded School are
taking advantage of the vacation in get
ting ready for another successful year of
school. A wing of concrete walk lead
ing around the building to the primary
room has just been completed One of
the latest pumps has been put in the
new well and the children will now have
plenty of good water on the
ground. More of the good grade of
blackboard, which was put in last year
has been purchased for the primary
room. The school will this year use
dustless crayon. Best of all a new pi-
ano is to be purchased for the school
and will be in the building before school
begins. In week or two the grounds
will all be cleared off and things put it
readiness.
McHenry Rhods, State Supervisor of
High Schools, will be here at the
teachers Institute and we feel sure he
will be greatly pleased with the way
the school is progressing.

A Plea for Good Order.
Mr., Editor


LEST we forget" it might be
well to recall the drunken disorders at
the County Fair one year ago. Such
scenes as we're witnessed, specially on
the second day, were not to the credit
OF the management of this historic an
nual gathering of our people. 1t is too
much to ask that our wives, children
and many visitors shall again be sub
mitted to such fragrant breach in the
enforcement of law and clean morals.
Our Fair directorate is made up of a
splendid lot of Christian gentlemen.
We do not think that it is asking too
much to require of them a candid de-
claration of their purpose to see that
the law is enforced. Their word would
prove reassuring to t h e public. To
have reputition of last years behav-
Tor on the grounds would not only prove
hurtful to the Fair Association, but
deplorable the morals of the communi-
ty.
The Ministerial Association.

There are four pastors of four differ
ent churches in this town. They are

Intellectually, and not only their re-
spective fiocks are pleased with their
work, but the community in general.
1t would be unkind for the News to
seemingly show partiality between
either of these good men, hence its pol
icy is not to publish extended notices of
the discourses of the local ministry,
less we forget and overlook some one
of the four who would be as much en-
titled to praise as the other. This
statement we feel sure will be endorsed
by the ocal preachers. Fulsome fiat.
terry is not relished by strong minded
men, neither do intellectual women
look upon it as sweet morsel. There
are conditions when a local minister
should be noticed, and when such con,
ditions arise the News will take care of
it.

The young boys who make up this
association pulled off their entertain.
ment last Saturday. The attendance
was large and the many rings were
very amusing. There were all manner
OF felines and CANNES on exhibition,
some trained, others wild and woody.
There were also calves, sheep and po-
MES on exhibition. This association
was organized about six years ago, and
the profits realized at the show, just
closed, warrants the statement that
another entertainment will be given
next August. Count Stults, Alvin

Comparatively a New Town.

With the exception of sixteen resi-
oences, the old hotel building and the
little green brick in the east corner of
he square, the remainder of Columbia
mas been built within the memory of
persons who have reached the age of
hfty-five or sixty, and who are natives
OF the place. Columbia now has pop
ulatIon of 1022. according to the last
census, inside the corporate limits which
extends one-half mile each way, and sew
eral hundred who live over the line, but
are towns people for all intents and pur-
poses. This information shows that
nearly the entire town has been built
IN the last fifty-five or sixty years.
The old land marks are as follows: Jas
L. Pages residence, j. M. Russell's
home, w. I'll. Wilson's property, where
Scott Montgomery resides. the Eubank
property, Mrs. Lou Miller's brick on
Water Street, where Mrs. Georgia Shell
ton resides, the brick on Burkesville
Street, occupied by Mr.. G. o. Miller,
Miss Ellen Burton's home. Miss Sallie
Fields residence, the home of C. Todd,
the residence of Mrs. Mary Ca dwell,
the home Of F. r. Winfrey, the proper
ty of Claud Hurt, J.H. Judd's home,
the old hotel building and the little green
brick. Columbia became town in 1903
and the old court house was started, but
1t was not completed until 1907. The
county now has its third Jail building.
Two Babtist church buildings have been
erected in the town, and the present
one will soon be razed and the third,
handsome brick, will be erectedon the
same site. There have been three
Southern Methodist church buildings.
The first one was lite brick that
stood back of H. N. Miller's garden.
and for many years it was the only
house of worship in Columbia and was
used by all denominations. During the
above given time there were a number
of business houses and residents RACED
and replaced by new buildings. The
above statement is an evidence that CO.
iumbia is a progressive town, due prin-
cipally to her educational facilities,
having been blessed with good schools
for about fifty-six or eight years, and
at this time it would be a useless ex-
pense for parents to send their children
elsewhere to secure an education.

To Robt. Antle.

Mr.. Antle wrote poem,
He wrote it mighty well,
He hit the measles to a dot,
When he said, they gil me ii.
No doubt they were awful bad,
But could have been lots worse,
And for scattering these measles
You've certainly been 'cussed."
They've raked you and scraped you,
And said lots of bad things,
For leaving these measles
About Russell Springs.
For days, weeks and months,
Big, little; old and young
Were taking these measles,
For which you'll be hung.
But most of them.s well,
And none of them died,
From these ugly measles,
You so literally supplied.
But owing to your mission,
They're willing to forgive;
So here's glass to your health,
And long may you live.

, To The Public.

| In view o: the fact that there have
been a great many failures in the coun-
ty teachers examinations, of this year,
and consequently many sharp criticisms
for the County Board of Examiners,
desire to make to the public the follow
ing brief statements:
All examinations have been held with
absolute fairness to all applicants and
in strict accordance with the law.
Each applicants papers have been
carefully examined and certificates
awarded only to those who have met
the legal requirements.
If the examinations have been more
rigid than has been the case heretofore,
the responsibility rests with the State
Board of Examiners and not with the
County Board, which had ak soutely
nothing to do with the preparation of
the examination questions.
The personal equation has been elm
mated and no speciai favors extended to
any one.
Conscious of having done it's duty
both to itself and the school children of
Adair county, the County Board has no
apology to make; but 'on the other
hand, would announce the fact that it's
present policy will be as strictly ad-
hered to in the future as it has been in
the past.
At the request of one applicant, his
papers for the three examinations of
this year, were sent to the State Board
for inspection and examination with the
result as stated in the letter which we
publish below.
The above statements are made in
order to acquaint the public with the
policy of this office, and that prospect
i've teachers may know that merit and
that alone will obtain a certificate to
teach in Adair county.
Very Respectfully,
Pearl Hindman, Supt

We suppose that the average life of
a Terrapin is an unknow quantity at
least it is to us but whether it be long
or short, certain or uncertain there is
one in this county that has been crawl
ing or the earth for many years. Several
years ago there was one found on the
farm of Mr.. F. Lewis, few miles from
Columbia, with Zach Rowe's name
carved on it's bach, bearing the date of
1884, Mr.. Rowe, passed to his reward
several years ago but his name is still
on the back of the Terrapin. Last week,
Monford, son of Mr.. Lewis, found the
same crawler and it seems to be in as
good state of moving as when first dis
covered although it has been bearing
the name of Mr., Rowe for twenty seven
years. That is long time to crawl.
