Afternoon.

Georgetown's football squad leaves this
morning for Richmond to tackle the
eleven from the University Of North
Carolina, and while the game Is not
looked upon as a sure thing. the Hill
toppers will not show anything startling
as the Virginia game is too near.
The entire squad will leave Union Sta
ton at $40 with Coaches Daley. Bennis.
and Gargan in charge. The team will
line up a. follows this afternoon: White.
Fury. Van Dyne. and Costello in the
backfield. with Derby and Bergin on
the ends. Petritz and Hegarty will play
the tackles, with Ritch in center, and
Barron and Moriarity as the guards.
Ritch will play against his former
team mates, as he played center last
year on the university eleven. and his
work will be watched with interest this
afternoon Dave White reported yes

the game this afternoon.
Rheinschild will not be able to play
the remainder Of the season. II was an
nounced yesterday. 1t was found that
the big tackle had two broken ribs, and
this will hardly allow him to get in the

BUSINESS is INCREASING.
Advance of Work Which Passes
Through Office of Auditor and
Treasurer is Shown.

Des Moines, Iowa, Nov. 29.-The
business of the state of Iowa, it's
strictly financial business, has enor-
mously increased and with steadi-
ness since the very beginning of the
state. Joe Wall, state bookkeeper in
the Office of auditor of state, has just
finished a tabulation to show the ad-
vance of the business which passes
through the offices of auditor and
treasurer. The first year Of state
hood the revenues of the state which
passed through the auditors Office
amounted to less than $4,000. In
the last biennial period the aggre-
gate was over ten million dollars. 1t
has increased more rapidly the past
three or four years than ever before
and is steadily going upward. If all
the appropriations are made that are
asked for on behalf of various state
institutions and interests the sum
will be greatly increased the next
two years.

VICTIMS OF IGNORANCE.
tilation During Winter to Pre-
vent Disease.

AS winter draws near there is a
| tendency on the part of school boards
and teachers to take measures for
the protection of scholars in the pub
lie and parochial schools by mailing
down windows or putting storm sash
on school buildings. OF course it is
important that the children should be
properly protected but it is the very
height of foolishness to follow the
usual custom of excluding all fresh
air from the school room.
Where artificial systems of ventil-
alton are not installed it is essential
that the windows in the room shall
be opened so that an abundance of
fresh air may be admitted. When
the weather is extremely cold this
system of ventilation will have to be
modified by periodically opening win
dows, but in mild weather windows
may be lowered from the top and
screened with cheese cloth so as to
admit an abundance of wholesome
air.
Most people do not understand
that coughs and colds and respiratory
difficulties so prevalent in the winter
season among school children are
due to the lack of insufficient ventil-
alton and to the experimenting of
rooms in which the children are COM
PEELED to sit for hours at time The
temperature of school room should
not be above 68 Fahrenheit and it
may be one or two degrees lower
These precautions will prevent many
of those disturbing maladies incident
to the winter season.
People in general keep their hous-
es too warm. 1t is this super-heat-
ing of houses and school rooms which
invite so much throat and lung trou-
BILE in the winter season. Coughs,
colds, pneumonia and tuberculosis
are few of the evils resulting from
the super-heated unventilated living
or sleeping room. Bedroom win
dows should be kept open wide thro'-
out the entire winter and children
should be given the advantages of a
common sense environment, both in
the school room and in the home The
fear which possesses many people un-
duly with reference to the open air
is tradition which has cost the state
of Iowa many lives. Give the chill
dren of the public and parochial
schools plenty of fresh air. Boards
of education should see to it that as
winter closes in schoolhouses are
equipped with simple devices by
which to admit an abundance of good
pure air into the rooms where chill
dren are confined long hours at ex-
hausting toll.

AN IMPRESSIVE SERVICE.
Annual Memorial Service of Elks
Lodge Held on Sunday.

On the first Sunday in December
of each year the Elks lodges through

Lodge No. 443 held its service at the
new Elks Home, formerly Unity
church, and in spite of the inclemen-
cy of the weather goodly number
were in attendance. The members
of the lodge met at the club rooms
in the Steyer block and marched to
the Home, occupying seats along the
sides and rear of the room, the citi-
zens present being seated in the GEN.

GRATED, three vacant chairs being

who have passed away during the
past year, w. w. Leith, j. F. B. Port

Beautiful musical selections were
rendered by quartette, Messrs. Hill
and Adams, Misses Berg and StOd-
dard. The impressive ritual service
of the order was read, and the men,
orial address was delivered by Hon.
VIM. S. Hart of Waukon. 1t was a
beautiful and touching tribute to the
memory of the departed and an elo-
quent eulogy of the principles and
deeds of the order of Elks. Mr.. Hart

dress was one of the best ever de-
livered here, being accorded the
