SKILLET CREEK
FARMERS CLUB
By VIM. Toole, President.


The meeting of the club on Friday
evening was of more than common in
terest and the attendance was very
good. President w. e. Smith Of the
county training school told Of the ad-
vantages of school consolidation as
proved by the experience of those who
have given the plan trial. Consoli-
dation can be carried on after two
plans: One is direct consolidation by
agreement of two or more districts.
With this plan the state allows ten
cents per day for transportation of
pupils living two or more miles from
the school. The other plan is for each
district to retain it's present form and
give the plan trial by having the
scholars attend one school. If after
trial the plan is not found satisfactory
the districts may return to the original
plan of agreement.
With this plan the districts are
allowed aid by the state 10 the amount
of $4,000 per year. The various adj
vantages to be derived from class
grading of scholars, longer term of
school, stimulus of association with
greater number of scholars and ability
to pay for better teachers, was pointed
out.
Superintendent Davies explained
the possibilities which are available
for the Skillet Falls, Pewits Nest, Gill
son Slough and Morley districts to
unite with the Lyons district, thus at
once securing the advantages of first
class state graded school. The various
roads from these districts lead directly
to Lyons, making very convenient
transportation routes.
The Misses Winifred WEIGH and Der
nice Wichern favored the club with
instrumental music and the Wichern
quartet sang several songs, all of which
was much appreciated.
The next meeting of the club will be
some time in June.

 Action Is Proper--QuestiOn I May Get Into the
 IT Courts q

What will the city commissioners do tomorrow when they find out that the Birmingham Water Works company has aisregarded the referendum on the wa ter works contract recently voted down. That is question that drew3interest yesterday to the commissioners and also the water works officials. None of the parties interested was inclined to talk about the matter. The bills for october will be mailed out tomorrow from the company offices. The bills will be for water service based upon the contract which was voted down by the people.
 From every indication there will de- velop a most interesting legal ques- ton, which will doubtless be aired in the courts through the efforts of the commissioners. It goes without saying that Commissioner Weatherly, who led the referendum forces. will not permit plates to pass unprotected. Thence to the courts the matter will doubtless go,
 The water works company perhaps anticipates something for President Bert Lynn will be in the city tomor
 row and will no doubt assist In what ever action takes place in the contro- rersy. The company officials assert that the bills for october will show ma terial reduction in the price paid for water. They ask the question: "Whc will ask us to charge more?' That at titude it is said will be the one the company will rely on if any court ac- tion Is taken. Again. the company at

A HOUR STRIKE STARTS TOMORROW Industrial Workers of World
 Vote on Issue

Lawrence, Mass, September 2S.-A gen. eral strike for 24 hours only, by all the Industrial Workers of the World in this city was voted at an open air mass meeting here today The strike is to be- gin at o'clock a. m. Monday.
 Only about 2O00 of the 12,ooo textile mill operatives who stopped work yesterday attended the meeting. The vote prac- tically was unanimous.
 Like the strikes of Thursday and Fri day, the proposed one day demonstration is intended as a protes against the con finement in jail of Joseph J. Ettor, Arturo Giovannitti and Joseph Caruso. These men will be placed on trial Monday in Salem in connection with the fatal shoot ing of Anna Lopizzo during one of the riots in last winters big strike.
 The attitude of the mill agents could not be learned tonight, but business men of the city expressed the belief that the mill gates would open Monday as usual. official sanction of the strike was received today in a telegram from the general executive board of the Industrial Workers of the World which Is meeting in Chicago The message was signed by Vincent St. John and William Haywood and declared that the board had adopted a resolution supporting the action of the local committee.

 q ask the business interests of this country. I ask the wage-earners whether, if they should receive news the day after the election that there is to be absolutely democratic control of the financial and economic problems of this country after March i, whether even mere doubt as to what the democratic party would do with this power in respect to the tariff would not halt and paralyze business?'
 Taft's Courtesy to Cripple
 One of the hundreds of persons who crowded the lawn at Parramatta, to hear President Taft address the Essex County Republican. club today, was Miss Clara Dickson, who seldom leaves her home, and walks with the aid of crutches.
 She stood in front of the temporary platform from which the President spoke and when the speaking was finished started a painful journey to the steps to join the line of handshakers. As she tried to mount the first step the Presi- dent spied her Turning to his aide, Ma jor Thomas l.. Rhoads, who could not see Miss Dickson. he said: Help the lady up, Major. I want to shake her hand''

 The President sent her home smiling in one of the White House automobiles after the reception with Major Rhoads as personal escort.
