Vote for Miss Molloy
County Superintendent.

In the selection of candidate for
the superintendency of the county
rural schools, the Democrats feel that
they are especially fortunate in being
able to present one who is in every
way qualified to succeed the present
County Superintendent We believe
that Miss Molloy has the experience,
the tact and the executive ability to
continue the work for the schools that
has been done by the Superintendent
of recent years. While graduate of
city school, and successful teacher
in city graded schools, she has hao
several years experience in country
school work and knows thoroughly the
needs of the county schools, the best
methods of imparting instruction to
the children, knows the problems OF
business administration the school
officers must meet and. solve, knows
and appreciates with ready sympathy
the difficulties and discouragements
that confront the country school teach
er, and because of this knowledge
would be a tower of strength and help
fulness to pupils, teachers and school
officers.
Miss Molloy graduated in 1898 from
the Grand Rapids, Wis High School
where she pursued course in normal
training, and Immediately thereafter
taught in the rural schools for two
years, did graded school work at
Pittsville, Wis, for two years, and in
the state graded school at Babcock,
Wis, for u years, leaving there in
1903 to come to Chester. During the
past four years she has done school
work in the rural schools of Chester,
where her school methods and success
are we'll known and highly appreciated.
School officials in Wisconsin unite in
recommending her work, pronouncing
her one Of the strongest teachers in
her county, strict disciplinarian and
therefore endowed with much execu-
tive ability, and an earnest and ener-
getic worker.
Miss Molloy possesses all the quail.
tiles necessary in good Superintend-
ent of Schools, you will make no mis-.
take in voting next Tuesday for Miss
Molloy for Superintendent of our rura
schools.

Vote for Kull for Repre-
sentative.

Hon. Hermann Kull, the democratic
nominee for representative, is making
q canvass of as much of the county as
his limited time will allow, having just
finished his threshing and the most
pressing of his fall farm work. From
every side comes assurance of the sup
port of his farmer friends who realize
that he has in the past and will con-
tinue in the future to look we'll to their
interests in the legislature. Save in
quietly made allegations in various
quarters, his record is unquestioned
and unassailed, and he is not ashamed
of any vote ever cast by him in the
legislature.
He was one of the really strong men
Of the last legislature and will, If re-
turned, continue to secure results.
1t is not alone the democrats of the
county who present and claim him as
their candidate, as Mr.. Kull's decision
to allow the use of his name as q can
didate was made only after the urgent
solicitation of republican friends all
over the county. Mr.. Kull's candidacy
is not of his own seeking but in re-
Spouse to the public demand.
MIR. Kull stands squarely upon the
democratic state platform and in SO do
ing is pledged to assist in legislation to
enable direct nominations and election
for all Offices; legislation for the
government control of the operation
and rates of telegraph and telephone
service; legislation to ascertain the
physical relations of all railroads to
the end that such actual relations may
be considered in establishing passenger
and transportation rates; legislation
for the Iowa boy and girl so that those
who cannot afford an university edu-
cation shall be entitled to receive q
general and technical education to bet
ter equip them for the battle of life.
Of all these and other advanced
progressive planks of genuinely pro-
gressive platform Mr.. Kull is it favor.
Add to this, his we'll known ability,
and you have legislative candidate
for whom you can proudly cast your
vote.

1912. He was the son of Scottish par.
ents, Thos. and Agnes Rutherford, and
retained many Of the stronger tenden.
cies of his ancestors throughout his
life. He received his early education
at the rural schools, afterwards gradu.
ating from the Albion Academy OF
Wisconsin,
In 1866 he came to Iowa, FIRST doing
work on a farm, and then engaging in
teaching school He was married to
Eunice Henrietta Norton, March S,

Elsie Eugene Perry. Three little

3 grandchildren. Two years ago Mr.

Mr.. Rutherford was a man who had

had enjoyed the deeper things in relig.
ious experience. He had faced the
problems and met the answers. He
was student of nature, and loved hel

lessons, to bend to the storms, but
stand straight when the storm was
past. To hold fast to that which was
good ''The Rock of Ages" He has
fought the good fight and kept the
faith. The words of Homer's Had are
applicable to him.
Like leaves on the trees the race of men
are found,
Now green in youth, now whitening on the
ground;
Another race the following spring supplies,
They fall successive and successive rise;
So generations in their course decay,
So flourish these when these have passed
away"
