SOME MARNoN COUNTY SCHOOL
OBSERVATIONS

| Last week superintendent Brinson
visited schools in the northern part
of the county. On Wednesday morn
ing he ran up to Mcintosh and came
back to Orange lake, ana found the
school in better condition than last
! year in the matter of attendance and
general condition Miss Frances G..
Hale is teaching her second term
mere most acceptably.
At Mcintosh the teachers, Misses
Catharine Farra and Grace Holloway,
had made preparation for Patrons
Day. The tenth grade, consisting of
six unusually bright and attractive
girls and one boy, with the teachers,
had arranged a splendid exhibit of
the work that had been preserved
from the regular exercises. They
served delicious fruit punch and wa
fers. There was a large attendance
OF ladies, but the men were busy in
the fields with the lettuce and cab
bage. The town has an air of pros
perity.
Superintendent Brinson made an
appropriate talk for the occasion,
and was pleased to note the excel
lent material for an eleventh grade
for the next year, and pledged his in
fuence to have it operated. The
school has devoted especial interest
to questions of sanitation apd Miss
Farra deserves much credit for the
healthy spirit shown.
From Mcintosh he ran over to Cit
ra. Here he found the school in eX-
cellent working condition. The school
here has been known for the very
close attendance made of the enroll
ment 1t is presided over by Miss
Jennie Payne, principal, and Miss
Kate c. Griffith, primary teacher
The discipline is very smooth, and
! they were in the midst Of the regua
lar bi-monthly examinations, and
We're down to strict business There
will be two here to finish the tenth
grade-one girl and one boy. This
! is Miss Payne's third term as princi-
pay, and the first year of Miss Grif-
! fifth. Thoroughness in work and re-
spectful conduct are the watchwords
here.
From Citra Mr.. Brinson went to
Fort Mccoy. The school here has
gone through transformation. Ow-
ing to the large number of new-com-
ers it was found necessary to furnish
two teachers. The principal is Miss
Amy Boggs and the primary teacher
is Miss Lottie Mills. The school was
in excellent condition of discipline,
and the teaching interesting and
thorough Fort Mccoy has erected a
splendid school house that will ac-
commodate a large number of pupils
and there is general air of eXpan-
sion. Miss Boggs has proven most
efficient principal. Several of the
boys belong to the Marion County
| Corn Club, and some of them have
planted their acre of corn. The school
interests are evidently keeping pace
with the rapid growth of the town
and surrounding country.
1t being Friday, the superintend-
ent came on in so as to be at the
office on Saturday, as is his custom.

he says, this will insure the growers
against a spring drouth, and the
crops may reasonably be expected to
be heavy.

IN MEMORY OF JOHN BUNYAN
Ornate Window Placed in Westmln- stsr Abbey DepIcts ecenes From
 ~The Pilgrims Propress."

Two hundred and twenty-three years after the death of the famous tinker of Bedford an ornate window 'a his memory has just been placed in Westminster Abbey. Naturally it de- picts scenes from the Pilgrims Progress" the chief episodes illus frated being:
 Christians meeting with Evangelist.
 His admittance at the Wicket Gate. His deliverance from the burden of sin at the foot of the Cross.
 Piety Prudence and Charity har- messing him with armor.
 Fight with Apollyon.
 Vanity Fair.
 Crossing the river te the Celestial City.
 Rou- the center panels. which are 20 feet high and six feet in width, run a series of vignettes representing minor scenes in the allegory, the first of course, being Pilgrims wife and family trying to dissuade him fsom making the journey. The headlight contains a portrait of Bunyan, and at the base of the window is the inscrip ton. Tn memory of John Bunyan: B. 1928. D. 1888. The Pilgrims Prog ross"
 The window is in the west aisle of the north transept Altogether the memorial has cost R1,200. raised by lovers of the Pilgrims Progress, but the project has chiefly been car lied on by the exertions and nberality of the Baptist denomination. on whose behalf Dr. Clifford will formally hand over the window to the dean and chapter of the abbey.-Lon6on Daily News.

INITIATIVE AND

Supreme Court Refuses to De-

The Effect of the Decision is to Leave the Oregon Law in Full and Free Operation uniess Checked
 By conoress-

Washington--Only Congress, ana not the Supreme Court of the United States, may object to the initiative and referendum method of legislation in the states, so the court itself der cided.
 That tribunal held that the question of whether a state still maintained republican form of government guar anteed by the federal Constitution, after it adopted the initiative and referendum method was politicai problem for Congress and not judi cial one for the courts.
 The decision was based on the claim of the Pacific States Telephone and Telegraph Company that a tax im- posed on 1t by the initiative and refer endum method in Oregon was uncon- stitutional The initiative and refer endum provisions in Missouri. Call fornia, Arkansas, Colorado. South Da- kota Utah, Montana, Oklahoma, Maine and Arizona hung in the balance. An adverse decision would have affected proposed legislation of that character in many other states.
 Chief Justice White announced the decisicn of the court. None of the jus tices dissented. The court also gave a similar decision in reference to an ordinance in Portland, Ore, for the construction of bridge.
 The decision in the case has been awaited with vital interest by the states that have the initiative and referendum and there is great rejoicing among many folks from the West Advocates of this form of government say the Supreme Courts decision will be of great benefit to them in their ehOsts to spread the propaganda.
