ILLEGAL VOTES

School Electors Must Pos.
sess Certain Oualifica-

Hundreds of illegal voters participate
annually in the school district meetings
as many do not understand the qualifi-
cations of voters. There is absolutely
no sex distinction, woman having ex-
actly the same privilege as a man if she
is otherwise qualified. No person has a
right to vote unless he or she Is parent
or guardian of children whose names
are on the school census or has property
assessed for school taxes. 10 addition,
voters must be citizens of the United
States, 2l years OF age and residents Of
the district at least three months pre-
ceding the election. Only electors hav-
iug property assessed for school taxes
may vote taxes. II property so assessed
is owned jointly by husband and wife,
both are qualified. Purchasers of land
on contracts may vote if they pay taxes
on the land and live thereon. A dog tax
does cot qualify and soldier exempt
from paying taxes cannot vote at all an
less otherwise qualified.
The law excludes all men and women

electors whose names appear on the

exception being that both husband and
wife owning property jointly may hold
Office, whether or not the name appears
on the assess ment roll.
Any two electors of district, whether
they are officers or not, constitute legal
quorum. Members of the school board
must be elected by written ballots and
there is no such thing as an informal or
nominating ballot. Even with only one
nomination, the written ballots are nee
essary.

Charge of Postoffice
Wednesday Morning
ASSISTANTS TO RETAIN PLACES
Retiring Postmaster Will Again EN-
bark in Business in Which He was
Formerly Engaged.

+. n. Wakeman assumed his new
duties as postmaster on Wednesday of
this week. The commission authorizing
him tn act, arrived last Friday evening,
just one week from the date the official
bonds were forwarded TO the Surety
company. The first days of the week
were spent in invoicing and checking up
the Office and the transfer was made
Tuesday evening.
b. +. Warner the retiring postmaster,
was first appointed January 9, 1900, and
has therefore served something over II
years. He has given the best of satis-
faction to the patrons OF the o1ice and
during his administration the business
of the Paw Paw Office has trebled.
While it may be welcome relief to Mr..
Warner to be relieved of the exacting
duties of postmaster, he cannot help
but feel some regret at severing his coz
nections with the office which has been
his "home' for so many years. He takes
the change philosophically however,
and extended all the courtesies within
his power 20 the new postmaster.
The assistant, Mrs. Mabel Warner and
clerk, Arba HawOey, whose faithfulness
and loyalty to the service has done much
to bring ,he Paw Paw Office up to it's
present standard. will remain with the
new postmaster. No postoffice has more
capable and efficient or more courteous
and obliging assistants, and the patrons
OF the Office Will be grateful to learn
that both are to remain 10 their present
Official capacities.
MIR. Warner announces that he will
again engage in the hay business, with
which be is thoroughly familiar and his
Van Burer county friends join in best
wishes for the health, prosperity and
happiness of Mr. Warner and his esti-
mable family.

Mary Servoss the Popular Actress Receives Cordial
Invitation to Again Visit the Furniture City.
Established Herself as FavOrite.

has the following to say of the popular
little actress, Mary Servoss, and urges
that she take to her heart the last line
OF the catchy little song, "Mary don't
forget to come back home We do not

So sings the chorus in "Forty- five
Minutes from Broadway" and so will
sing Majestic patrons in a great com
bined chorus next week, when they say
au revoir to Mary Servoss and her band
of clever players. And when they sing
it We may be sure that they will place
special emphasis upon the last line:
