clay--for that's all meerschaum is-and
which carries the tobacco oil to all
parts of the surface, preventing its
exuding. The nature of heat is TO
drive any liquid away, and If the pipe 10
smoked too fast the heat generated will
drive the wax to the extremes. That Is
why most meerschaums show color first
In those places Just as soon as the
wax is oil driven out there is an end
to the hope of coloring the pipe unless
lt is rcboiled.

Another way Is to get button

the advantage of being a more COM

OF ABSENCE FOR SCHOOL
suPERINTENpENTs,
CONVENTION.

At the regular monthly meeting OF
the Hancock board of education last
evening, Supt. LaRowe of the public
schools was granted a leave of absence
TO attend the convention of the super
intendents' department of the Nation
al Educational association to be held
at ST. Louis Feb. 27-29.
The National Educational assocla
ton, in a letter just issued. announces
that no special rates will be granted
for the convention by the railroads.
The letter In regard TO the rates, says
Although we had received and had
announced official guarantees OF rate
of one and one-half fare for the round
trip on the certificate plan from the
lines of the Central Passenger Asso-
citation and their Eastern connection,
this rate has been withdrawn and can
celled without statement of any definite
reasons for such unprecedented action,
as shown In the enclosed Special An
nouncement. This is a matter of deep
regret"
Other School Matters.
NO turther action regarding the pro-
posed new high school in Hancock will
be taken by the board until the legis-
lature meets again, which means moth
ing will be done this year. 1t will be
necessary to have a special act passed
by the legislature authorizing the issu-
ance OF bonds to pay for the building.
Had the legislature been called in spe-
cial session by the governor this year
action would have been taken by the
Hancock board to have the act passed
at that time, but 1t is now practically
certain no special session will be held.
The attendance in the primary
grades of the Hancock schools has
been cut down to about one half dur
ing the past few days on account of
the storm, many of the children being |
unable to leave their homes.

The seams Of a garment require
careful pressing, as on this depends
It's appearance and. to certain ex-
tent. the fit. For a thick material
like cloth coating the seams should
be spread out on an uncovered round
wooden surface, opened with the iron
or the finger and then covered with
a cloth wrung out of cold water and
ironed over this until dry. In this
pressing process the iron should not
be too hot but great strength and
weight should be put upon 1t. Lighter
weight materials should be pressed
over a soft cloth laid over the press
ing board and the opened seams
should be dampened by dipping the
finger tips in water when necessary.
Very delicate materials, like crepe de
chine, mousseline and satin do not
require dampening at all. Velvet and
plush may be pressed by placing the
material, with the open seam slightly
dampened by the fingers. over the
bristles of an ordinary clothes brush
or by setting hot iron on end and
drawing over the face of 1t the damp
ened seam on the wrong side of the
material.
