EXPECT HOT FIGHT
IN CITY COUNCIL
OVER AN ELECTION
Those Opposing DR.. M. F.
Johnston's Candidacy
Met Yesterday.
"CHARGES" PREPARED
Every Attempt Being Made
to Defeat Head of
School Board.
"CHARGES" PREPARED

One of the warmest fights over the
election of a member of the city
board of education that Richmond has
ever had. will take place this evening
in city council According to law it is
imperative that the vacancy caused by
the expiration of the term of DR.. NJ
F. Johnston, president of the board, be
filled at the meeting this evening. DR.
Johnston, at the solicitation of friends
some time ago announced his candi
dacy for reelection to the office. Lat
er George Seidel announced his can
didacy for the same office.
Councilmen and others, opposing the
candidacy of the present head of the
board, it is understood will attempt
to bring charges against DR.. Johnston
Yesterday Councilman Oscar Williams
H. H. Engelbert and Will Bartel. anc
Charles o. Williams, county superin
| tendent of public instruction, met and
laid plans to fight the candidacy ot
DR.. Johnston. Just what nature the
charges" will be, is not known.
Committees Statement.
1t is understood that Williams, En-
gelbert and Bartel, who compose the
| councilmanic committee on public
schools will make a statement tha
DR.. Johnston approved the purchase
| of goods from Lee B. Nusbaum, a
the time the latter was member o
the board.
! Mr.. Nusbaum, who was succeeded
on the board by Charles w. Jordan
! frankly admits that some merchandis,
| was purchased of the firm which bear
his name, but that it was purchased b.
the city superintendent upon the su
perintendent's orders and that he (Mr
Nusbaum) knew nothing of the pur
chases. This, he says, is a matter o
public record and anyone may see tn
vouchers.
Some months ago Will Bartel, repre-
senting the fourth ward in city council
was charged with having sold merch
andise to the city. The charge wa
made at board of public works meet
ing and later something about the mat
ter was said in council meeting. MI
Bartel now, 1t is understood, will al
tempt to defeat DR.. Johnston's candi
dacy by bringing a charge that h
approved or permitted merchandise t
be purchased for the schools from
member of the school board.
| His Authority Unknown.
1t is impossible for those who ar
in a position to know, to determin
what right or authority County Super
intendent Williams has to enter int
the city school board fight Mr.. Wi
liams attempted to interfere in tn
appointment of a city superintendent
recently.
The city and county schools are sci
crate and distinct institutions and az
cording to law County Superintendent
Williams has no more right to inte
fere, directly or indirectly with tn
matters pertaining to the city schoc
board of city schools than has any cit
zen.

the sixth ward and one of the SUI
porters of DR.. Johnston, will be Ill
able to attend the meeting of counc

NEW YORK SUFFERS.

NEW YORK. June 16.-This city
sweltered today under the first real
heat wave of the season. At noon the

poorer classes.

Mercury Climbs Up to 81 De-
grees Here This Afternoon
Heat Wave General All
Over Country.

Richmond sizzled and steamed yes
terday under the heat wave. Sunday
afternoon the mercury at the govern
ment station northeast of the city reg
istered 80 degrees, which was the
highest of the season. This afternoon
the same thermometer registered SO
degrees, but the thermometer at the
Palladium Office went up to 81 degrees.
The hot wave has been hailed with
joy by Wayne county farmers, who
state that they can almost see their
wheat and corn growing under the
torrid sun rays. A rain would be
welcomed by the farmers, but they
stated that it is not necessary for the
time being.
The bathing pond north of Glen Mil
Ter did land office business yesterday
and today, people going there in
droves to find relief from Old Soils
beams.
There is every indication that the
heat wave is here to stay for time,
and not much possibility of rains.
Weather forecasters predict moderate
southerly and southwesterly winds,
which will increase rather than mod
crate the heat.
Physicians report the usual number
of cases resulting from summer all
ments, but no cases of heat prostra-
ton were reported today or Sunday.

It's kind in the world known as the

In a letter to the field stafi
under date of November % the president
Of the agency writes as follows:
OF the 100000 widows in this
country. moro than 1000, 900 are moro
than 45 years of age. while consider
ably over 100000 are at least 90
years old. Ninety per cent OF women
who reach the age of 65 are either
charity or generosity OF others, Six
million women living In America are
now working for wages. and 80 per
cent OF all widows are compelled TO
gether Thanksgiving and Christmas
time, the home and fireside. mother
and children. and their protection by
President Day has ever put out How
can We individually make the most
practical use Of II? BY feeling deep
~ ourselves the great need OF more
fireside and family. There are around
us thousands OF future widows and
orphans. The more deeply we feel
their needs, tho more active and ag
Gressive VIII we be TO supply them.
Never ask a man how much insur-
ance he wants, but how much will his
wife and children need Many a
man thinks he has all he can con-
venicntly pay FOR; the question that
will concern his widow Will be--has
she enough TO live on? .His wife
may not know how much life insur-
ance lac carries. but his widow will.
Conduct the argument from this
standpoint Around Thanksgiving
and Christmas time a mans thoughts
naturally turn TO his home and fam
ily There will be Thanksgivings
and Christmases when lie will no
longer be here. Remember tho c.,
900. 600 women working for n living
IN the United States. not including
those working even harder in their
own homes How many are doing
this because they want 10? How
many because someone failed TO pro-
vide life insurance Neglected life
insurance makes working widows.
Suggest TO our prospects that they
are not the kind OF husbands who by
neglect OF life insurance force such
conditions upon their families.
Observe in your own community
the women working for a living and
ascertain why, Are not many of them
the widows and daughters Of those
who were well able To provide some
protection by life insurance? Use
them as illustrations to those 10
whom they will appeal. How can men
men out of ten fail TO do. to mako
money and. still moro difficult, 10
keep IL when made?
