Increase In
School Enrolment

The 1915 school year is now well
under way and in another week 1t
will be difficult for the uninitiated
to observe any radical difference be-
tween an emerald freshman and a So
phisticated sophomore. AS usual the
freshman class is bigger than ever"
and will enroll more than forty men,
bers before long. The midyear
freshman class is almost as big, and
out of the eighty there really should
be several huskies who will develop
into football material.
The total enrolment in the Ash
land schools is S37 at the present
date and of these 211 are in the high
school. There were no figures COM
piled at this time in 1914, but two
years ago the enrolment at the end
of the first week was 1876, of which
100 were in high school.
Several of the classes are being
subdivided owing to unlocked for
numbers, The pupils are fast max
ing the acquaintance of the new
teachers and everything is progress
ing swimingly.
Among the new innovations is a
music room being fitted up and ar
tistically arranged by Miss Harris,
who has charge of music. A vctrola
and piano form part of the equip
ment and a music course OF para
mount attractiveness is being offered
and taken advantage of by many.

Vaudeville at
vining Delights

One of the best crowds of recent
weeks enjoyed the vaudeville pre-
sented by the seven members of the
Cox family at the Vining Theatre last
evening. Every member of the troupe
is really clever and their act merited
the bursts of applause which greeted
each selection. Singing, dancing and
lively comedy woven into each other
make up an entertainment which will
drive dull care away. Ask some
one who was there md then go your
self. Regular pictures in addition to
the vaudeville with complete changes
of program every night this week.

Theophilus is Favored for U. S.
| Judge.-Judge William Theophilus of
Davenport may be the successor of the
late Smith Mcpherson as judge of the
United tSates court for southern Iowa.
AT least this is the the wish of his
friends as we'll as practically every
member of the Scott County Bar asso-
citation. Judge Theophilus, TO be true.
has not announced himself s a candi-
date. But his friendI and admirers
Saturday started a decided boom in
his favor and the suggestion of his
name was everywhere received with
favor. If Judge Theophilus should en-
ter the race, he will prove a strong
candidate and his nomination may be
hoped for. There are several reasons
for this strength. He has made an
enviable reputation as a district Judge.
Although a loyal democrat at all times
he has never been classed as a poll
tician. His popularity and the conf
deace he holds among the'masses was
shown at the last election. He polled
the highest vote of all the candidates
for district judge. Judge Theophilus'
strength is not confined to his home
district. From various parts of the
state since Judge McPhersons death
have come recommendations that he
become candidate for the vacancy.
He is now being urged to give the
matter his serious consideration.
