much as scalp a helpless family.
And robbers-they aren't the sort OF
chaps that teach good, moral lessons,
and the young American that pays his
good five pennies to see a red blooded
hlghWayman do the latest capers in
the profession will emerge crestfallen
and disappointed. 1t is the aim of
the moving picture censors, one of
whom is woman by the way, to per-
nit to be shown in Ohio only pictures
| that will aid and educate and uplift
and robbers and such won't have the
| glimmer of a show with them. The
ONO censors are ready now to go to
work on the pictures. They organized
Monday. Between now and Nov. 4,
when the censor law goes into oper-
| alton, they will have to examine
something like 10000 films.
Publication of Text Books.
II the state Of Ohio should publish
its own text books it would save the
people hundreds of thousands of dol
lars, in the opinion of Ohio's state
printer, Frank Harper. The idea of
printing of text books by the state Mr.
Harper gets from the state of Kansas.
whence he has just returned. Kan
sas just now is getting ready to print
all OF the text books that will be
used in the grades, and believes it will
save at least 100000 annually of the
profits which the people who have
school children now pay into the pock.
cts of the school book men as profits.
Mr.. Harper is enthusiastic over the
project and will recommend to Gov,
Cox that there be an immediate in
Vestigation in Ohio of the feasibility
of the plan after this state shall have
had its own printery.
Fair Profit Not So Large.
The state of Ohio won't make as
much clear profit on the state fair this
year as last. This fall the crowds
were not quite so large nor the in
come so heavy. The fairs total re-
ceipts were something like $86,OOO |
Last year they were $101,000, and the
state pocketed the cool sum of
$4,000. Just how much money it will
make this year remains to be seen, !
but the amount probably will be be- |
low the $4,000 mark. But then be-
fore the anti-pass system was estab.
lished there were many years when
the state made nothing at all on its
fair, but on the contrary failed to pay
and had to dig down in it's
pocket to make up the difference.
Hog Cholera Scare Over.
The hog cholera scare at the state
fair is about over and the feared in.

found to be nothing but an innocent

swine has been permitted to go and

The pneumonia that was found among
some of the sheep is known now to
lave been an innocent, non-infectious
orm that made the animals feel

Fight Still Goes On. ,
And still that fight goes on between
chairman Sandles of the Ohio agricul- ,
ural commission and the Columbus ,
'oard of health. The trouble arises
'ver the fact that the state fair, Just
'Yer, has left a huge pile of refuse ,
ust outside the boundary of Colum-

lilltons upon millions Of flies are
