WOMEN MAY VOTE

MANY DISCUSS NEEDS
Figures In Superintendent Reports
Last Week Show Necessity for
New Buildings In Two
Districts.

The women OF Keokuk will have the
opportunity to vote at the special
election on April Z, to decide whether
or not there shall be bond issue Of
$4,000. The women can enjoy all the
fun of being suffragettes without the
necessity OF copying their methods to
get the privilege. The women will
not be allowed to vote for directors
at the election, next Monday, how
ever.
The women's vote, two years ago,
played considerable part in the out
come OF the bond issue election. A
large number, especially in the firsA
ward, worked against the issue, it
was generally stated at the meeting
of the board last week.
At the school election to be held
! this coming Monday for directors, the
following three members OF the board
will retire. and their successors will
have to be chosen: John A. Dunlap,
J. F. Lutz, and George S. Tucker who
was appointed last fall to fill the va
cancy made by the resignation Of j.
e. Baker. 1t is quite probable that
the three men will be returned to the
board
The question Of new schools is be-
ing talked quite freely about the city,
and from the general trend of the
conversation, the measure is more
than likely to pass. The seventh
warders, it Is understood, are going to
get out and work hard for the issue.
as it means the school they have been
after for some time
Some of the school patrons are ask
ing the members of the board if it
will not be possible to provide rooms
in the new buildings where pupils
may bring lunches and eat them. AS
1t is now, there are no such rooms
set apart. The idea Ut having the
schools built in order to accommodate
evening gatherings of the district
seems to be meeting with favor.
The crying need for building in
the seventh ward and the crowded
condition of the Lincoln building
seems to have been ably emphasized
by the figures in the report of Will.

board last week.

great deal of discussion and comment

However, Mr.. George Kleine claims to

causes of this particular confagra-

accident inasmuch as the city hac

Worth Knowing.
The average consumer OF baking
powder does not know that a reaction
occurs in the process Of baking. When
ever chemical reaction takes placs,
the nature of the original materials is
entirely changed, SO that the sub
stances which remain in the food to
be eaten are very different from those
which composed the baking powder
before baking. For this reason the
statement that a baking powder con:
tains alum or cream Of tartar is
worthless SO far as informing the con-
sumner as to what he eats. What the
consumer wants to know is what goes
into his stomach, not what is in the
can. Food prepared with cream OF
tartar baking powder does not con-
tain any cream of tartar, just as food
prepared with alum baking powder is
fres from alum. Some baking pow
Gers leave large quantities of Roch-
ellie Salts in the food, which is dan
gerous drug and is produced by the
chemical combination of bicarbonate
of soda and cream Of tartar; others
lsave lime, ammonia, etc.
Calumet Baking Powder has been
for SO many years the standard of all
that is good in baking powder that
it's purity needs no defense. There is
| just one fact that will bring this point
! forcibly to the readers mind. This
state, in common with nearly every
other state in the union, now has a
