Heavy Wind Storm
Sweeps Across Iowa

Railroad trainmen coming in from the
east assert that the wind that blew
across Iowa Tuesday night was the most
severe in years. In many parts Of the
state It took on the proportions OF .
gale. Occasionally It was accompanied
by light snow squalls.
Owing to the heavy wind, trains from
the east were a little off schedule, the
engines being unable TO make steam.

HOW TO KEEP BOYS AND
GIRLS ON THE FARM.
ss y!

In the current issue OF natlonaI
farm paper the editor, writes a most
interesting editorial on the advan-
tuges of having practical education in
rural schools Following is an ex-
tract from his editorial:
eff our boys and girls are given the
right sort of education at home they
will not desert US and go to the city.
They will stay on the farm If they are
so educated as to feel that on the farm
they may become successful.
"In an Iowa county the rural pu-
nils were examined as to what they
wanted to do with their lives. Most
Of the boys, and almost all OF the girls,
answered that they meant to leave
farm when they grew up.
1.-TWO years afterward the boys ana
girls in the same school were asked
the same question. Most of the girls
and almost all of the boys, answered
that they meant to stay on the farm.
"What had made the change! just
this: the teachers had been given
mole practical work to do in the
schools. They had been given the
teaching farm slant. They had been
working in the schools on farm mat,
tiers, and the girls had been studying
cooking, sewing, Housekeeping, anu
the care of the house and children
And they had forgotten about leaving
the farm. They had been doing pleas
ant. interesting, practical work, and
they were happy. They had come TO
see that there is just as fascinating
work, just as intellectual work, just
as big work in the country as any Of
them could expect to get in the city
ard much higher work than most 81
them could expect. 1 think few farm
ers, in that county would begrudge
t5gh wages to teachers doing that sort
OF work.

farm, and in a good many instances
students work their way through the
schools by doing more work than is
required of them. The tuition is free.
and the board is very small, each stu
dent paying his share.
OF the II schools, every one of them
las made good. From year to year
they have added new pupils. and this
year a number of students had to be
turned away from some of the schools
on account of lack of accommoda
ton. Some of the schools are in need
OF larger and better dormitories, and it
is believed that these will be furnish
ed them, according to Orange Judd
Southern Farming. ass
The boys are taught how to do all
kinds of work on the farm, to give
the proper attention to live stock,
dairying, and any other subject that
might come up on the farm; how to.
make all the necessities that could be
made at a farm shop, and are given
practical experience in this work.
The girls are taught domestic science,
gardening, and, in fact, so much that
it would be an easy matter to man
age a farm themselves. In most
cases the students go back to their
homes, carrying with them and put
ting into practice the methods they
have been taught, exerting wide IN
fiuence for better agricultural condi-
tons in their immediate communities.

action for expedition being taken on
the question of our basement changes,
it was So working days after date a
award of the original contract before
we could go ahead with our excava-
ton, but we didn't lose any time
once we got started, as probably a
good many folks, may have observed.
Now, as to the building itself, we
have to spend on the building, proper
exclusive of the site, and all equip
ment, such as safes, lockers, desks,
chairs, etc. about $4,000. This is a
very neat and goodly SUM for public
building in town the size of Hender :.
sonville, and in my experiences around
the various sections of the country
on government details, l have yet to
see this appropriation bettered, rela-
lively speaking. The architectural
style of the building is purely colo
NAL; a refined and modified type of
the Corinthian order is employed in
treating the terra cotta plaster cap
on the front elevation of building
and the cornice above, executed also
in terra GOTTA, carries out the proper
tiOns and high concentrations of the
order aforementioned. 1t makes al
especially pleasing facade and the use
4Of the two different materials, glazed
terra GOTTA and wire cut or tapestry
brick, will be better appreciated when
the building is further advanced and
has had its openings closed (windows,
etc. at which time a general tonifg
down of the wall surfaces will be evil
dent and the mass will assume char
acter. 1t is one of the most successful
of our two story buildings, from a
viewpoint of plan and design, that 1
have ever seen and the people of Hen
should be very proud of it
for many years to come.
The base is of limestone from Indi-
ana economy called Bedford Stone"

a large vault also. The women's toll
ct will be off the workroom and be-
hind the division just mentioned. The
remaining space on the first floor
(aDuut z,UO0 square feet) will be de-
voted to the workroom proper, where
the business of receiving and dis
patching the mails goes on. Needless
to say, it will be large enough for
many years to come. The mails are
dumped on the mailing platform i'll
the rear of the building, carried
through the mailing vestibule and de-
posted in the workroom, where the
distributing cases will be placed.

eliminating the entire basement with
it's boiler ROOM, fuel room, janitor's
room and all storage space) will bord-

going will enable the layman to catch
