I HIGH SCHOOL NOTES.
I The final inter-society program
win be held in the high school as
sembly room Friday evening, Apri
18th. The debaters Representing
the Roberts and Dolliver societie.
will discuss the question: "Resolv
ed: That the true solution Of thu
trust problem lies in the direction
of combination rather than in the
! breaking up of combination and the
restoring of competition" This de-
bate will finish the series and de.
termine the championship for the
year. Paul Brown, Ira Melaas and
Harlan Church of the Dolliver socie.
ty will uphold the negative, while
charlotte Melvold, Gertrude Kessel
and Florence McCook will uphold
the affirmative representing the Rob-
vital interest and should make a
spirited debate.
A very clever farce comedy is be-
ing prepared to entertain you dur
ing the rest of the evening. The IT,
tie of the farce is "a Case Of Sus-
pension" and is one of the few real
ly funny farces. Some the very
strongest talent in high school is
putting forth their best efforts to
make this a success and we can as
sure you treat if you will come
out to this program Friday evening.
An effort is being made to make
this the best inter-society program

Last Wednesday morning the high
school pupils were given an oppor-
tunity Of hearing the new records
which were lately purchased for the
Victrola. These were all the very
best records and the pupils surely
enjoyed this opportunity Of hearing
some of the worlds best musicians.
The Roberts society gave very
entertaining program Friday after
noon. This program was entirely
musical and being little different
from the general style of these pro-
grams was perhaps enjoyed more
than usual.
The Seniors are now busy prac-
ticing for their class play.
The examinations for this six
weeks period will be given next We'd
nesday and Thursday, the morning
classes having their exams on We'd
nensday and the afternoon classes
Thursday.

that exorbitant taxes on necessities
must be continued to furnish revenues
for the government. The same result
was accomplished by scaling down on
the privileged manufacturers and
scaling up on the tax. payments of men
with big incomes. When the political
SPELL binders get back home and find
that the prices of Iowa farm products
have not been reduced, as they predict
ed. they will not find as much in the
tariff issue as they have thought there
would be.

have written the teachers asking then
to have suitable exercises for this oc
casion. Special day booklets hav'
been sent to them, giving program

The Big Five Teachers associa
ton will hold its meeting at De
corah Friday and Saturday, May ]

all rural teachers the time neces

our county is expected.
District NO. /, New Oregon twp
is in possession of a Victrola and a
few records purchased by Bess Glib.
bons with money earned at a, social
which was held during the winter
term.
About forty schools have taken up
the Home Credit work. We believe
it is working out well and are glad
to have so many try it this spring,
SO through experience we shall be
able to make any changes that
might be helpful to begin the new
year in the fall.
The bulletins for the Big Five sum-
mer school to be held at Fayette
are being distributed to the teach
ers. AS the new school law pro-
hibits the regular Summer Normal
institute, but does not give state aid
for holding a summer school, the

ing to hold a self supporting sum-
y 3
mer school at Upper Iowa Universi-
ty. The courses are arranged es-
pecially for the needs Of the rural
teachers, and special methods
courses for rural teachers aside

planned. The new subjects-agri-
culture, domestic science and man

Cured a Severe

ache so that l was unable to bend. A
friend recommended DR.. Jones' Liniment
and the first application gave me relief.
One bottle entirely cured me.
"A few days ago lady called who COM

her a little of DR.. Jones' Liniment and she
was relieved Immediately after applying it.
We are recommending it to all our friends ~
So writes M. P. Stutzman, of Higgins, Pa.
Pains in the back are often mistaken for
kidney trouble, and so-called kidney cures
and plasters are resorted to, which, failing
to relieve, only tend to aggravate the dis
ease and prolong the suffering. DR.. Jones'
Liniment relieves rheumatism, Neu-
ralgia, Headache, Cramps, Cold
in Chest, or any pain or ache that can
be reached by external application.
Ask your neighbors what DR.. Jones' Lin
iment has done for them.

RICHMOND WOMAN
CAUSE OF TROUBLE

CONNERSVILLE, Ind, Feb. IL
Mrs. Daisey Crawley Of Richmond,
Ind, was a caller at the court house to
inquire whether her husband, Earl
Crawley from whom she had been sep
arated since 1907, had ever secured a
divorce and IL he had ever taken out
a marriage license. Finding he had
taken neither action, she called at the
Crawley home, where her husband has
been living with another woman, and
told her story. When Crawley re-
turned home his Richmond wife had
departed and the other woman. very
Indignant, told him either he or she
would have to vacate the premises at
once. 1t is reported Crawley did the
vacating and is now rooming in this
city. Since his thrilling experience.
Crawley has entered suit for divorce
Whether Crawley ever went through
the marriage ceremony with the wom-
an he has been living with of late is
not known. Crawley is we'll known in
Richmond. The Richmond woman
wants divorce SO she can marry an
other man.

THE EASIEST WAY
TO END DANDRUFF
STOP FALLING HAIR AND ITCH
ING SCALP.

There is one sure way that never
fails to remove neutrality-suspicious.
and that is to dissolve it. This de-
stroys it entirely. To do this, just get
about four ounces of plain, ordinary
liquid arvon; apply it at night when
retiring; use enough to moisten the
scalp and rub it in gently with the
finger tips.
BY morning most, if not all. of your
dandruff will be gone, and three or
four more applications will complete
1y dissolve and entirely destroy, every
single sign and trace of it, no matter
how much dandruff you may have.
You will find, too, that all itching
and digging of the scalp will stop in
stantly, and your hair will be fluffy,
lustrous, glossy, silky and soft, and
look and feel hundred times better.
II you want to keep your hair look
ing rich, do by all means get rid of
dandruff, for nothing destroys the hair
so quickly. 1t not only starves the
hair and makes it fall out, but it
makes 1t stringy, straggly, dull, dry,
brittle and lifeless, and everybody no
tees 1t. You can get liquid arvon at
any drug store. 1t is inexpensive, and
four ounces is all you will need. This
simple remedy has never been known
to fail.

PREACH IN TERMS
OF DAY. SAYS Gates
Local Minister Declares 1t Is
Duty to Bring Personal
Touch in Work.

INDIANAPOLIS. Feb. 17.-"Method.
ism Preaching was the subject of an
address Of the Rev. Arthur Gates, OF
Grace M. e. church, Richmond, at the
meeting of the Indianapolis Metho-
dist Ministerial Association yester-
day. THE mission of the minister to-
day Is different from that of the min
lister of some fifty years ago" the
Rev. Mr.. Gates said. Sermons ON
dootrinal subjects almost exclusively
were the order of the day then. In
these hurly-burly times the minister
must bring personal touch into his
work, a personal experience with re-
ligious principles, if he would be sue
cessful"
The speaker suggested that there
was too much extemporaneous speak
ing in the pulpit today, and that SER
mons we're delivered without enough
attention to the forms of diction and
manners of expression. Sermons in
this manner lose their effectiveness,
the speaker declared.
