DUCKTOWN,S PUBLIC SCHOOL

Only those who have given the work
being done in our public school thorough
inspection can have any idea of the work
that is being accomplished.
That the pupils today have advantages
net dreamed of a few years ago can be
easily verified by those who will take the
time.
There is no reason why any boy or girl
in this county should not have an education,
embracing a large and varied course.
While the facilities are limited, vet the
work being done is of nature to bring
forth the highest praise.
The corps of teachers now employed is
probably the best this school has ever had
and it has the faculty of imparting an en-
thusiasm to the pupils that are very pleas
ing to the patrons.
The manual training department is
worthy of extra mention, for it is doing
splendid work The boys are taking great
interest in the work and showing proficiency
in many lines. During spare moments
the boys are excavating the part of the I'M
finished basement and when it is COM
pleted they will have workroom Of which
they can be proud.
Through the courtesy of Prof W. B.
Rucker, we we're shown through the build
ing, last Saturday, and while it was very
interesting, we could not give it the time
that is its due. But it is we'll worth the
time of those who have the interest of our
schools at heart tie make thorough exam
ination Of the great work that is being
accomplished for the children.

DOWN COME PHONE POLES
Business District Cleared of Bell
and United Poles

Down come the telephone poles
from the business streets of Abilene.
Linemen for the United Telephone
company today completed taking
down the wires from the poles in the
business district and many of the
poles also have been lowered. The
string of poles on the south side of
Third street are those of the Bell
System and have been unused since
the Bell company built a line south
along the railroad track. With the
exception of two poles used in the
light service on Third street, that
street will be cleared of all poles
east from the Brown building to
Buckeye. Probably in time the light
poles will be removed.
The United company when given
its franchise agreed to lay conduits
underground and eliminate the poles
as soon as practicable. This is
fulfillment of a promise that will
be appreciated.

BALED HAY IN RACK
RACES AGAINST TIME


A hay rack drawn by two teams
of mules and heavily loaded with
baled hay created considerable ex-
element in the course of its dash
down Buckeye avenue this morning.
J. NJ. Kugler, living north of town,
was driving the mules, and had
about two tons of baled hay stack
ed up in the rack. When the rig
came down Buckeye from the north,
the high hill increased the speed
materially and as there were. no
brakes on the wagon, it Numbered
down the street at good rate OF
speed. One mule pulled away from
the race but was pulled back simto
position by the force of the rack.
The race ended at the Fourth street
