YOUNG MAN DIES AS
 RESULT OF FALL
John kinman Falls From Wagon and injures Head, Causing
 Death Next Day

John Kinman Jr., died Thurs day night about 8:30 at the home of MT. and Mrs. M. Drennen. We'd nesday he fell out of a wagon, the fall being caused by his team start ing unexpectedly as he was stand ing near the back end of the wag- on, and he fell to the ground with his full weight upon his head. At the time he did not seem to be hurt very much and got up and went on with his work. However the next day he complained of a headache and sometime in the evening went to bed. No one thought there was anything seri- ously the matter but his head grew worse and a doctor was sum- moned. When the doctor arrived he was beyond assistance and died in a very short time. It is sup posed that death was the result of injuries sustained when he fell from the wagon. The remains were buried Saturday at Blue Springs cemetery. Deceased is survived by his mother, one broth CT, Estes, of this place and a sister, Mrs. Flanigan, of St. Louis.

consider that most diseases of
childhood are easily preventable,
we should consider every case of

The arrival of three hundred
books the other day completed til,
third hundred that has been adj
ded to the library this year at a
cost of about three hundred dol
lars. The seventeen hundred vol
umes now in the library are all
catalogued and fully classified &C
cording to the Dewey Decimal
system SO that it is possible to
find book on a given subject at
a moments notice. Further, the
services of a librarian insures the
preservation of the books and that
they will not disappear by the
scores as in former years when it
was impossible for the teachers
to look after the library as it
should be done. Since the value
|of library consists in its use
we can safely say that the library
is worth ten time more than at
the beginning of the year, for it il
ten times as much used.
In the upper grades and in the
high school, home study is neces-
sary for creditable work, but in
many eases we find it is not be-
ing done. Instead it is known
that the same children have time
to spend on the streets at night
and in places Of amusement. We
wish that parents would see to it
that their children stay in on
study nights at least. The great
est trouble to the school now aris-
es from the parents lack of con-
troll or absence of control Of their
own children. What can teachers
do when parents do not care
enough about their children to
see that they do their work well
and faithfully. More, if parents
would take the trouble to inquire
into matters, they would find
other reasons than study for keep
ing their children off the streets
at night. In Grangeville as in
other towns there are gangs on
the street, in loafing places, and
places of amusement that have a
demoralizing influence upon all
who associate with them. If par
ents are not aware of this, take
heed.
