like statement of names of contrihu-
tors, amounts. and the uses for which
money was expended by you and
other members OF the state commit
tee.
Perhaps you say it is nobody's
business how You expended your
money. or how much you expended
during the campaign just ended. or
the use to which it was applied; but
will not the public have the right 10
infer, that if all the uses were per-
fectly legitimate you would be will
ling to furnish the information which

demanded2 Lam sir,
Truly yours. Elisha May"

School Buildings in Woodstock

This town has had some sad ex-
perience in school building in
building for barely present needs
and in not considering the possible
growth of the town and village and
an increase in the number of chill
dren for whom Accommodations are de-
manded The graded school build
ing is notable example of this ex-
pensive shortsightedness. 1t may be
allowed that it's the only one but
it. should be enough for lasting ex-
ample. For two or three years the
overflow of children of the lower
grades has been quartered in the
Railways and in the assembly room
of the village building, and in vari-
ons places which were never dedi-
Gated or adapted to education. Some
of them were short of fresh air, and
finally the frowns of the state board
of health were followed by an official
command to remedy conditions, and
at once.
Successive town meetings had dis
cnssed the school question for years
aud months and weeks, but town
meeting talk aud unlimited street
corner debates failed to settle the
question of more room for school
purposes, and hope that advancing
years, or perhaps a deadly epidemic,
would settle il - without further ex-
pense was abandoned for good
and all.
Now the village is 60 have new
building, thanks to the state bohrd
OF health's hypnotic influence on our
voters, and on or about January l,
1918. new building will be put in
commission.
This one-story building will have
two rooms sufficient, il is noted,
for the immediate needs CT education
here. and perhaps il isn't unreason-
able to Suggest that it may be an
other expensive proposition for the
town. There will be just room
enough. and no more, and the local
halls Of learning will still lack Offices,
laboratories, and perhaps needed
space for other academic purposes
The school board is getting around
the difficulty temporarily by moving
one ofthe frame buildings purchased
in acquiring site for the new build
ing under the shadow Of the present

large brick edifice "a small but OBJ
trusive adjunct whichever much re-
modelling cannot make architecture
ally harmonious, to put the case
mildly.
Is not this two-room affair another
case of shortsightedness, and might
it not be remedied, now, by adding
two rooms? Another story would moi
be vastly more expensive than the
restoration and adaptation of the
humble hip-roofed cottage or barn
which it is proposed to annex foI
educational purposes.
The new building would perhaps
have few square feet of surplus
space, but it would be less suggest

The State fair managers arranged
a grand show for the interested pub
lie and il is unfortunate that the
accompanying rain, fog and mud SO
nearly spoiled it There were some
good races before the weather inter-
fered; the stock show was record
breaker, and the fat men and their
prismatic umbrellas were another
feature. With good weather the
attendance would doubtless have
beaten all records.

whence they go to Lapland, return
ing eventually to Germany. All the
travellers are in the best of health,

"Our Flag ("

Not long ago, at Hull House, in
Chicago, Miss Jane Adams was
holding class in English for news
boys in her district. In it were
boys of all nationalities and all ages,
and they we're not only being taught
knowledge of our language, but
were getting knowledge and love
of our country and its true demo-
cracy.
The lesson was the writing Of a
short patriotic play in three acts.
This was one of the plays that was
handed in, tie author being little
Irish boy:

ST. PAUL TRAFFIC DEAL.

CHICAGO, May 1.-Under the traf- fife agreement recently made, the St. Paul railroad today began running both freight and passenger trains solid from Chicago to San Francisco and Los Angeles, using the Union Pacific beyond Omaha. fhis ar engagement has been the subject of negotiations between the St. Paul and the Hartman lines for ten years. but was brought to a conclusion by the action of the Chicago 6 North western in making a traffic alliance with the Northern Pacific. For years the Northwestern had used the Union Pacific exclusively for it's through business. and the Union Pacific's con- tract with St Paul may have been in retaliation. The agreement is eX- pected to be of great advantage to the St Paul, as that road expects to get a large amount of through business heretofore taken by North western.
