Died at his home near Barnett
Monday evening July 9th 1912 at 10
O'Clock, after lingering illness, Mr..
Jesse Ashton. Mr.. Ashton was born
near Logan, in Haw King County,
Ohio, January the 2oth, 1886, NOV
ed with his parents to Missouri in
1S43. Was married April the r4th
1867, to Miss Amanda Calyert, who
died June the end 1867. Thus a
good man, kind meighbor, has pas
ed away. Another new made grave

breath,
As we stand by the mystical stream
In the valley and by the dark river

Why do we weepwhen the weary

In the bosom of Jesus Supreme,
In mansions of Glory,
Prepared for the blest,
For death is only dream.

school is the low salary paid to
teachers which makes it necessary for the
poor districts to employ instructors who
are not properly prepared.
Tn. aveaage of the highest monthly
salaries in ia counties Is only S66 80
while the low average is 5000. The
last sum will not procure competent
teacher in any school district. 1t must
therefore be an pncontroverted fact that
the pupils receiving instruction from
teachers in this class are no. prcpa,ed to
battle with the fierce competition to be
met III the outside "orld.
IF the proposed maintenance amend-
nent is adopted by the voters at the gen
eral election the poor school districts will
receive such aid as will place the school
more on an equal with the schools of the
towns and cities.
Sanitation is one of the greatest de-
mands being made by school authorities
for the rural district schools. Poorly
ventilated class rooms, dark buildings,
and unsanitary conditions poor districts
cannot remedy without State aid will be
overcome if the amendment is adopted.
Health of children is far greater than til
saving of few dollars to the State or
resident.
