Because of a lack of sufficient
funds for the ensuing year, due to a
deficit of approximately $1,000 in

year. 1t was decided to dispense
with the services Of Miss Mildred
Bray, English instructor. who was
appointed to that position last Janu-
airy, following the resignation of
Superintendent Clayton, she being
selected because she was the latest
addition to the teaching corps. The

intendent Bentel. American liter
ature will be taught by Miss De-
weese. and the history class will be
given to Miss Singer.

WEDDING BELLS IN
WAR-TORN EUROPE

Below is an extract from a letter
received by P. Arber, clerk for the
l.. V. & T. railroad, from his broth
er, dated Constantinople, Turkey,
Aug. 20, 1914:
Nov a word about my marriage.
Seeing the possibility of complica-
lions between Turkey and England,
and believing that in such an event
l might be forced to leave Turkey, l
decided to marry as quickly as pos
sible. The ceremony was performed
in the English church here on Sat.
urday. the 22d, inst, at 1890
o'clock. the service being read chiefly
in French with a little English
where the parson found it easier.
Afterwards we had a dinner at the
Hotel Tocatlian here, only a dozen
guests being present, as it is not the
time to make a great deal of fuss
just now. Among our dozen guests
were n Italian, one Swiss, one
Dutchman, one Frenchman, II
Arab and three or four Greeks, 1
being the only Englishman. The
mother and sister of Corinne (his
French bride) were also present,
and all passed very happily indeed.
Generally we spoke in French, but
at one time l noticed that the Greeks
were talking Greek, the Arab was
talking Arabic with the Italian, and
the rest were sticking to the French.
The Italian I knew very we'll, and ne
surprised me by suddenly rising with
his glass of champagne and propos-
ing the health of my mother. sister
and brother so far away. After the
dinner we went to one of the islands
a few miles off Constantinople, stay
ing there for a few days. I had.
however, to make the trip to the Of
flee Gin Constantinople) each morn
ing, as the boss is still away (not
being able to get back on account of
the war;, but the Turks, who are
mobilizing, have suddenly seized
500 cases of our milk, so We have
been obliged to come back here to
be on the spot"

Gasoline Kills GOphers

of the troublesome gopher. When
he sees a gopher run into a hole he
s~aturates a bunch of cotton with
gasoline and places the wad at the
opening, covering it with dirt. The
gas fumes, heavier than air, go to
the bottom of the hole, asphyxiating
the gopher.

PERQUISITES OF KINGS
BUSINESS NOT ALLuRlNG TO THE
ORDINARY MORTAL.
BEING Shot At, and Occasionally
Killed 10 One Of the Prices Of
High Positlon--some Others
Worth Mentioning.

The heir apparent to the Austrian
throne and his wife were shot dead
in the street recently. Being shot at
and occasionally killed seem to be
perquisite of the king business. The
price of place Is enormous. The king
place being one Of the choicest plums.
its price is very high. These are
some Of the items:
To have no wholesome, natural boy
hood; always to be watched by lack
eys and nurses, and never to be able
to 60 out and play pirate with Huck
Finn, to splash In the old swimmin'
hole, nor steal strawberries from
Jones' patch at midnight.
To grow up in an atmosphere suffo-
Gated with convention. to have hun.
dreds Of things you don't want, and
to be raped over the knuckles when
ever you reach for thing you do
want.
To be surrounded with alleged
friends who you know do not care a
hang for you, and who would push
you off the roof In minute II 1t was
not for your father.
Not to have one friend who will slap
your face and tell you the truth, but
to be surrounded by enemies who
smile upon you and are only waiting
for an opportunity to slip knife un-
der your fifth rib.
To have your wife picked out fer
you by a lot of wlzened old diplomats.
To be allowed as many light-o'loves
as you please, to be as drunken. cruel,
selfish, violent and mean as you will,
but to have every honest and generous
human feeling vetoed by court and
fashion.
To have your pride constantly fed,
which renders any man unhappy.
To miss all OF life's true values, and
to become a past master In all that
makes life sordid and cheap.
To cease to be normal. cheerful
human being and to become wooden
ladder for mems ambitions.
To have people blame you for their
own mistakes, to be the political and
economic scapegoat OF the nation,
and to be cursed and hated by large
section of the population. no matter
what you do.
To have every man In the ma.
chinery OF government, every place
holder and privilege inheritor. turn
against you when you try really to
help the people.
To know that every hour OF the
day and night the poisoner, the bomb
thrower and the plotter are seeking
your life.
And in return for this all you get
is money, fine clothes, food and drink,
and incense burned before your
wretched vanity.

What Causes Grub Worms.

Entomologists or bug hunters OF
northern Ohio and Indiana have
warned farmers against grub worms,
saying that a certain species OF bug
that files in the air is distributing its
eggs on the ground that are trans.
formed into the grub before coming
back to Its original form and during
that period as a grub worm is when
Its ravases are the greatest on grow.
Ing crops. more especially growing
corn, which the worm eats when 1t
first starts growing. II is suggested
that fall plowing for corn is best and
II grubs are noticeable in wheat ground
that a greater amount OF seed should
be sown SO that the worms can have
wider range and not destroy the
whole crop. It is fixed fact. as every
farmer knows by experience, that dur.
Ing certain years there is an exces.
sive number OF this species OF grub
and II there is any rule laid down to
avoid their ravages on crops II will be
