Annual School Meeting.

The annual school meeting of Joint
School Dist. No. 8 of the city of Edger-

Child high school auditorium Monday
evening. The meeting was organized
by electing Andrew Mcintosh as chair
man, the clerk of the board acting as
secretary. The annual report of the
school board was presented as follows:
Edgerton, Wis, July l, 1912
The school board of joint school dis
trict No. of the city of Edgerton and
town of Fulton report as follows:
Another school year has closed with
very satisfactory results. The COM
mercial course introduced since your
last annual meeting most certainly
merits your approval. 1t seems to
have inspired the pupils to a still great
er interest in their work. Plans have
also been completed to install manual
training, your board having faith that
these innovations will add prestige to
your school and merit your sanction and
financial support.
There is and has been for some time
a gradual increase in teachers wages
throughout the country. Then, too,
never in the history of your school has
the expenditure for water, fuel, etc.,
been so great as during the past year
You, therefore, must realize that a
still larger appropriation is inevitable.
The financial report is as follows:

New England.

SPRINGFIELD, MASS, June 81, 1912.
Although not much growth has been
made by tobacco plants in New Eng
land within the past few weeks, the
crop is practically all set in the field.
The rains of this week Tuesday and
Wednesday helped plants somewhat,
but more is needed. The severe winds
the past few weeks dried out the top
soil so plants did not take hold readily
after they were set in the fields. In
some instances fields were set with
plants two to three times before good
stand was secured. With the warm
weather enjoyed the past week the
progress of tobacco should be very
rapid, as soon as moisture is available.
Cutworms and wireworms are doing
lots of damage. Otherwise plants are
doing we'll.
This is one of the hardest seasons to
make plants live that have seen. The
lack of rain during the setting period
and the hard winds have made the

above the heart by a pitched ball Tray

old and made his home with his parents
near Koshkonong Station. The man

plate, when the pitcher threw ball
which he was unable to get out of the
way of. Standing upright for few
seconds, Traynor advanced toward the
first base line for few feet, appar

when he fell to the ground, dead. He
was carried to a nearby cottage and
doctors were summoned from Milton
Junction, but efforts to restore him
proved fruitless. People who saw the
boy end his unfortunate career as a

Retort Of a Bonaparte.

The former king Of Westphalia. q
man Of wit, was one day examining an
inkstand upon the table Of some one
we know. The writer. at whose house
Jerome Bonaparte was at that mo-
ment, had brought back from trip to
the Alps, made in company with
Charles Nodier, some years before,
bit Of steatitic serpentine, carved and
followed into an inkstand, which he
had purchased Of a chamois hunter OF
the mer de glace. Jerome Bonaparte
was looking at this.
NWhat is it," he asked.
"My inkstand," replied the writer.
Then he added: 1T is steatite. Ad-
mire nature, who makes this charming
green stone out Of a little dirt and
oxide"
"I admire much more the men," re-
sponded Jerome Bonaparte. who
make an inkstand out Of this stone"
For a brother Of Napoleon this was
not a bad reply, and he should be
credited with it, for the inkstand IS to
destroy the sword.-Victor Hugo.
