cation Office for ratification. Nothing
whatever had been done toward any
substantial compliance with the man
datory instructions of the commissions
ers. It was distinctly proposed that
the official section of the meeting
should be in control, and that any ac-
ton taken should be along lines laid
down by them, all the rest of the
members being considered interlopers.
It being evident that no independent
or useful discussion could be had with
the official whip continually cracking
over the heads of the principals, It
was thought best to reorganize with
presiding officer chosen from among
the principals, retire to some conve-
nient place, sit down informally about
a table, and try to ascertain the real
sentiments of the meeting, uninfiuenc-
ed by official direction or suggestion.
The vote on the motion to reorganize
resulted in tie, and Superintendent
| Pope retained his seat in the chair by
virtue of his own ruling.
When the Copeland-Wells course OF
study was prepared by them, it was
with the full realization that it could
be nothing more than clear, def1n
ito plan which might be useful tc
the supervising principals in their
work. 1t was never supposed or in
tended by its compilers that it would
or ought to be adopted as a whole by
the meeting. It was hoped, however

II NAV be that the compilers of the
course of study, proposed for consid-
GRAFTON only, are, as has been public
w asserted, merely ignorant, bump
tious and presumptuous sore-heads and
disturbers of the peace. 1t may be
that the proposed course of study IL

what harm could possibly result from
extending to everybody, proponents
anG opponents alike, the ordinary cour-
tesies and facilities for debate? What
good can come from misrepresenting,
ridiculing and impugning the motives
OF those who may differ profession
ally from the official element? We arc
firmly convinced that this meeting
although hampered, fettered and COW
ed by continual appeals to stand by
| the department" will make some real
progress toward fulfilling the direc
tons of the commissioners. We are
also convinced that much more wonlt
have been accomplished had We beer
permitted to set about our work in ,
rational manner unhampered and un
repressed by stand-pat official infin
ence.

A Wonderful Sanitary
REFRIGERATOR
Most Economical

The Rhinelander is most economical. First
because of price, lower than any other Re
frigerator daring to approach the Rhinelander
in e,.iciency; second: because of minimum ice
requirements. The casing is constructed of
eight separate and distinct walls of casing,
sheathing, and matchings, including a mineral
wool lining and the XYNO stone lining. 1t
keeps out the heat; keeps in the cold. Fur
themore, the Rhinelander has drainage sys-
tenn and system of circulation that guarantees
throughout the entire Refrigerator absolute dry
air. The ice chamber is made of rust-proof
galvanized iron, with back slanting floor to in
sure proper drainage. Cabinets Of beautifully
finished. air-dried oak, Internationally guar
anteed against warping or falling apart Heavy
nickel trimmings.

Analysing the frozen product, the pub
lie will not have to wait longer than
Thursday morning in order to find
out whose icecream is pure and whose
fails to come up to governmental
standard.
Ever since the inspection work and
investigation of conditions started,
the food inspector has been kept busy
answering telephone queries in regard
to where to buy icecream and which
has proved the best quality, etc, etc.
Partly to satisfy those making the
inquiries and incidentally to see
whether publicity will assist any in
improving manufacturing conditions
Mr.. Blanchard intends to publish a

city and showing the percentage d
| butter-fat in their icecream.
The food commissioner will take
pains to slight no one in his report
and will publish the exact figures
reached after Analysing the samples

Most Sanitary

Most sanitary because nowhere in the entire
lining or food department is there single
groove, crack, or crevice where germ can
dodge the cleaning cloth, and there can never
be any such hiding places, because, unlike all
other so-called stone, slate, or tile-lined re-
frigerators, Xyno stone can never chip, crack,
or discolor-corners rounded, shelves, ice tank,
everything slides out from front, then glsten-
