ELEPHANTS ONCE ROAMED
OVER OHIO SAYS GEOLOGIST

elephants formerly lived in Ohio,
and in large numbers judging from
their remains, though it is not gener-
ally known" says DIR. j. A. Bownick-
er, state geologist and professor at
the Ohio State University.
"There were two forms commonly
known as Mastodon and Mammoth"
asserts DIR. Bownocker. apparently
they were much alike, though the
Mammoth may have had better
covering of hair and hence been more
at home in a cold climate. One of the
finest skeletons of the Mastodon in
this country was found in Clarke
County and is mounted in the geolog-
ical museum of the Ohio State Uni
versity. This skeleton has a length
of nearly 20 feet, height of about
10 feet, while the great tusks are
almost 10 feet in length. These meas
urements, except the tusks, are about
the same as those of Jumbo, giant
circus elephant, two or three decades
ago.
"Both Mastodon and Mammoth
wandered over large parts of North
America. In fact remains of the
Mammoth have been found from the
Gulf of Mexico to the Arctic O0cean.
The Mastodon, however, appears to
have roamed over a smaller area
though its bones are found in our
northern states and in Canada. Both
forms probably lived in glacial times
and their wide distribution may have
been the result of great temperature
changes, the ice forcing the elephants
to the. south while in the warm in
terglacial epochs the animals sought
the cold climate of the North. They
lived in Ohio also after the ice had
abandoned the State and their re-
mains are found buried in old swamps
and marshes where they went for
food and water.
"The cause of the disappearance
of these elephants is unknown. The
Indians may have exterminated them
as the white man has the buffalo, but
it is possible that they disappeared
for more natural reasons"

OHIO STATE DAY PROVES
SUCCESS IN MANY CITI]


Ohio State Day, November "a,
the day on which meetings of stu
dents, alumni and ex-students of the
Ohio State University were held in
all parts of the world, was the big
gest celebration this year that has
been held since the Inauguration Of
was held in practically every county
in Ohio, in most of the large cities
of the country and in several foreign
cities.
Many methods were used in ac-
quainting alumni with the changes
which have taken place on the campus
since they were graduated. Profess
sors of the University gave talks at
all of the Ohio meetings. In Worces-
ter, Mass, at meeting of the New
England Ohio State University AS
sociation was held, former Ohio
Staters were brought back to the
campus by steropticon slides of the
new and old buildings.
"We are very much gratifed by
the success of our meetings this year."
said J. S. Myers, secretary of the
Ohio State University Association,
in speaking about the various gather
ings. eve believe this to be val
liable means of letting the people of
the whole country know about the
advantages of Ohio's largest univer-
sity. Ohio must be made to rank with
any state in the union in its educa-
tional facilities and the people of the
state must be brought to realize the
importance of educating its citizens.
Ohio State Day will help to accom-
plish this, and we are going to make
next years celebration even more
successful than this years has BEEN"

COUNTY MEETING OF
SCHOOL, ROARD MEMBERS

One of the new features of the
school-code passed by the Ohio Legis-
lature is an annual meeting of all
school-board members of the county.
Pursuant to this law, County Superin-
tendent Biery called the meeting for
Friday afternoon, December 4th.
To this call ninety-eight of the one
hundred and twenty board members
of the county responded. These men
came at their own expense, and
number of them at considerable incon-
venience to themselves on account of
weather and distance, these in a prac-
tical way manifesting their interest in
the educational welfare of Fulton
county.
After some discussion it was decid-
ed to form permanent organiza-
tion and County Superintendent Biery
was chosen president and Dewitt Will
liams Secretary.
The subjects of uniform textbooks
for the county, and heating and venti-
lation, were discussed at some length,
which resulted in a motion being car
ried to appoint committee to investi-
gate the advisability of uniformity of
textbooks and how best to proceed in
the matter, and another committee
to investigate heating and ventilat-
ing systems.
On the former committee, C. K. Mil
Ter, of Gorham; w. B. McClarren, of
Pike; DR.. j. F. Outcalt, of Wauseon;
W. c. Hoch, Of Delta; W. J. Weber,
of Pettisville, all members of the
County Board of Education, were ap-
pointed. A. ]. Perkins, of Swan Greek
Edwin Russell, of Chesterfield; w. A.
Leininger, of German; Chas. M
Shade, of Clinton; Albert Edgar, of
Royalton, together with the two rural
District Superintendent, Earl F
Chase, and c. P. Weber, constitute
the committee on heating and venti.
lating.
The meeting adjourned to meet al
the call of the president, as soon as
the committees are ready to report.
The splendid attendance and the in.
terest manifested in the discussions
promise live organization which
will be a vital educational factor il
i Fulton county.

SEPTEMBER MORN"

September Morn" plus a lot of
gaudy clothes and gay music, laugh
ter and songs-is coming. She has
been made into a musical comedy and
will bow to Toledo from the Valen-
tine footlights starting with matinee
and evening performances Sunday
Dec. 9Th. She will remain "in our
midst" for a week, with other mat
inees ON Wednesday and Saturday.
AS a musical comedy, September
Morn has proven a success. A run
of 156 nights at the LaSalle Opera
House, Chicago, shows it, and an en-
thusiastic reception on this, the at
fractions first road tour, further con-
firms the statement. With a COM
pany of SO people and loads of cos
tunes and scenery, the offering should
add Toledo to its string of conquests
A meritorious cast of principals
will be seen here Frank Minor will be
funmaker and associated with him
are: Maude Potter, Lou Kelso, Airline
Boiling, William Cameron, Edgar
Murray, Joe Doner, Clarence Nord-
strom, Katherine Bowen and others.
A youthful and very lively chorus is
advertised, with some striking cos
tune effects.
The musical comedy has to do with
the experiences of a fake professor,
Rudolph Plastric, who claims to have
painted the famous Chabas picture.
He becomes entangled with an actress
who claims to have posed for the
painting. Each believes the other
genuine and seeks frantically to es-
cape exposure. This leads to a series
of comical predicaments that fur
nish much of the comedy of the piece.
Among the big song numbers that
have won favor are: "Oh, You Sep
tember Morn, "In Berlin" every
body's Tango Crazy" "When Little
Boy Loves a Little Girl" "a Spare
rib from the Butcher Shop of Life"
Beautiful Dreams Pm Dreaming,
"The Sunshade Girl" and "I've Girl
in Every Town."

new BUILDINGS
RISING RAP|DA[Y
Work on Bank and Other
Structures Keep Pro-
crossing Steadily.

Work is progressing rapidly on a
number of the new buildings now in
process OF constructionin Grand
Forks.
The most notable example of this
is the new Scandinavian American
bank building on DeMers avenue and
Fourth street. The frame work on
the structure Is rising rapidly, and
gives some idea Of its size when COM
pleted.
The iron work on the two lower
stories is practically completed, and
that OF the upper part of the build
ing has reached its full height in the
center. and is branching out towards
the sides.
The new fiat building being erect
cd on Fourth street, between DeMers
and Kittson avenues by DR.. r. D.
Campbell. is also rising rapidly. The
framework and walls Of the lower
moor are practically finished, the last
of the brick on the front of the
structure being laid today. The frame
work of the second floor is also done,
md all is in readiness for the steady
rise of the walls.
At both the Masonic temple and
new county court house the outer
part Of the building is finished and
the decoration and other work in the
interior is progressing rapidly.
1t is probable that both of the new
ftructures will be ready for occu-
pancy sometime during November.
