Body Holds That lat
Out of 345 Town Clerks of State
Ars Inaccurate in Accountings-
Remedies Are Suggested.

Madison - Loose methods and
carelessness are evident in the
school district accounts and the sta
tistics in State Supt. Cary's biennial
report are inaccurate, according to
the report of the board of public af-
fairs School buildings and grounds
are said to be in bad condition and
sanitary conditions poor. 1t was
charged that 147 out of 354 of the
reports of town clerks were inaccu
rate.
These results were discovered in
the investigation conducted by the
board under the general direction of
DR.. William H. Allen, director Of
the Training School for Public Serv-
ice, conducted by the bureau of mu-
nicipal research of New York.
The report says; ''In obtaining and
interpreting the facts here reported
we have received the unstinted CO.
operation of state and county super
intendents, teachers and other indi-
viduals interested in public educa-
ton in all parts of Wisconsin The
animation of condition in twenty
seven counties in widely separated
portions of the state and upon
more detailed investigation of con-
ditions in 131 schools in thirteen
counties"
Several instances are given of
school houses in wealthy rural dis
tricts, which are said to be '%inde-
scribably filthy
A good part of the report is de-
voted to pointing out specially good
points in the rural schools of the
state. 1t shows that in spite Of de-
fects in organization, lack of au-
thority, and inadequacy of clerical
help on the part of county superin-.
tendents, many instances have been
found where a strong personality
has found ways of effectively direct
ing school board, supervising teach
ers, starting instruction in useful
arts and helping teachers to be lead
ers in community life.
At the end of the report are a Sc
ries of legislative and administrative
remedies. Among the remedies are
county boards of education to be
elected at the general school cleo
ton; appointment of the county SUI
perintendent by the county board;
better pay for county superintend-
ents; higher qualifications and high
er pay for teachers, effective super
vision; more equitable distribution
of school funds and new classified
ton of rural schools.

SOLUTIONS
Adopted BY the Baptist Church of Ft.
Mccoy, in Honor of Rev. Harmon
Charles Martin

Last May, having reached the sew
entieth year Of his useful career as
soldier, servant of state, and minister
of the gospel, Rev. Harmon Charles
Martin began to realize that he had
spent the greater usefulness of his
life. His decline in health has been
gradual, all fully realizing that the
summons could not be far away With
his life companion, faithful TO the
end, by his side, with the anxious
hearts of sons and daughters, on last
Sunday morning, August 18th, he
passed TO his reward.
He was born in the state of Geor-
gia, moving to Florida in his early
childhood days. Here residing until
he was sent to Bayler University,
Texas, where he took full course
up to the examination period. and was
at this time drafted into service in
the civil war He never received the
diploma that was duo him, but his life
has been read by the thousands who
have appreciated him none the less.
Directly after the war he was happily
married to Miss E. J. Carlton, of what
is now known as Island Grove, Fla.
There came to brighten their home
and gladden. their hearts ten bright,
happy children. Two have crossed
over before him, the others remain
ing, with his loving companion, to
mourn in this their sad hour of be
reavement. Their names and places

CALL FOR DIXIE

II is almost imperative that Dixie
or it's contributing editor should make
q pilgrimage to Portland, Oregon. In
the issue OF the Oregonian of August
18th, that paper says:
Very likely it will be surprise to
many steadygoing citizens Of Port
land to learn from the report of the
vice commission what a following
Mrs. Warren's Profession" has in
this city. The district investigated in
cludes the heart of Portland, where
the principal business houses, hotels
and public buildings are situated.
Scattered here and there among these
more pretentious structures are nu-
merous lodging houses and residenc-
es, some falling into decay, some kept
up in good style. OF these places the
commissioners investigated SAT, ac-
cording to their account, and found
no more than ninety-eight to which
they could give a certificate of clear
moral character. The rest were bad
in varying degrees, from the resort
where misconduct is merely tolerated
to the den where vice is practiced in
forms so abhorrent that they cannot
be named The chances are that any
person procuring lodgings in certain
quarter of Portland would whether
he intended it or not, find himself an
inmate of an immoral house. The
commission gives other items of most
interesting information about these
habitations of evil. They are not
owned, as one might naturally sup
pose, by depraved monsters who love
to parade openly the source of their
unspeakable profits. On the contrary,
many of them are the property of
highly respectable people, church
members, leading capitalists, sub
scribers to good causes of all sorts"

Carrot" Shade is Latest

TO call it simply "carrots." And car

as the fashionable shade.

GAINESVILLE TRIMMED
Local -cam Won Interesting Game
by Close Score

For the first time this season the
Ocala baseball team defeated its old
rival from the University City at the
South Ninth street park on Thursday
afternoon by the close score of five TO
four The victory of the local club
was all the more pleasant in that it
brought sweet revenge for former de-
feats earlier in the summer, and be-
cause the game was witnessed by the
largest crowd of the season, which fill
ed the grand stand and bleachers
while the right and left field lines
were crowded with automobiles and
carriages all the way to the fences.
Fresh from their victory over Dun
mellon Wednesday, the home team
felt equal TO the task of winning from
Gainesville Until the locals half OF
the fifth inning it looked as though
they would be disappointed, as the
visitors scored two runs in the first
inning on two bases on balls, which
were all Galloway gave during the
game. an infeld out, two stolen BIAS
es, and a long single to left field by
Scott.
The score stood two to nothing in
favor of Gainesville until Ocala's half
of the fifth inning. AS in Dunnellon
the day before, Manager Hunters
team did its heaviest batting in the
fifth inning On two errors. a single.
a double, triple, hit batter and a
stolen base the locals circled the bas-
IS three times, putting them one run
to the good
Gainesville, however, tied the score
in their half of the sixth, but it did
not remain tied long as the home
team annexed another run in the
sixth, and still another in the sew
enth inning.
The visitors made a desperate at
tempt to win the game in the ninth
inning when they tailed another run,
but after allowing a two-bagger by
Swanson, Galloway frightened up and
retired the side without further
scores, the contest ending in the To-
Gals favor by the score Of five to
fou-.
There was lots of hitting, many
stolen bases and number of errors,
but it was a game the crowd thor
oughly enjoyed They especially en-
joyed seeing the home team win.

Brides CoIors in Japan

Brides in Japan follow the same
custom which prevails in the western
world, that of wearing white at the
wedding ceremony, at least during a
part of it, But the significance at
tached to the choice of this color is
quite different on the two sides of
the world
The Japanese bride is dressed first
in resplendant garmentst of white
silk, the sleeves of the costumes u.s.
ually being about three feet in length,
while the sash, an important feature,
measures about eleven feet in length
But white is the mourning color in
Japan, and the bride, leaving her pa
rents house, considers herself dead
in the sense that she will never re-
turn alive, preferring death to di-
vorce, and in consequence wearing a
white costume.
After the exchange of cups of sake
with the bridegroom, which is the
most important part of the wedding
ceremony, the bride changes her cos
tune to a red one. This is called iro-
maoshi changing color. Red is
supposed to have a purifying power
and perhaps clears the minds of the
parties of all association of mourn
ing
This is the origin of the Japanese
custom of using white costumes at
weddings, but many people of modern
Japan do not any longer have time to
bother their heads with these ques-
tons of color, and simply go ahead
and marry according to the accepted
custom, with no thought of what the
colors signify

Along with the Punishment of the
