NIGHT SCHOOL WILL
BEGIN IN ocTo5ER
Date Earlier Than UsuaI-Hot Wealth
or Caused One Session of Schools
Wednesday.

The date for the opening of the
night school was set for October 13 at
the meeting of the town school COM
mittee on Tuesday evening. This IS
a week earlier than the date of the
opening last year and was so decided
upon in view Of the fact that there
Is a larger attendance at the earlier
part of the session. No action was
taken regarding the supervisor or
teachers as this matter will occupy
the committees attention later. The
school will run for 100 nights and will
be operated under similar conditions
as last year. On Wednesday owing
to the extreme heat the afternoon ses-
sion was omitted in all the town
schools.
St Patrick's parochial school was
also closed at noon on account Of the
heat
In New London st. Mary's parochial
school was closed again Wednesday.
The heat-was the reason. The school
was closed Tuesday for the same rea-
son and one day last week there were
no sessions because OF the weather.

Every farmer knows or should
know, that 0wsley Stanley has
always advocated laws in their
behalf. We don't know when
any political party ever before
nominated a man in Kentucky,
at least, who has kept his eagle
eye so closely riveted upon the
farmers interest as Mr.. Stanley
has.
The record shows, that while
in and out of Congress, he has
never let an occasion escape him
to befriend the cause of the far
mar the one man who does
more to provide provision for
the want of mankind than any
other. When Stanley takes his
seat in the Executive Chair the
farmers interest will be in the
hands of its truest advocate
known in the annals of Kentuc-
ky's political history.

who had no insurance. AL Eas-

stock during the day, but usual

Mt night, and this he did Monday
night, no stock being in the shop

also some lumber in the building

The head of the democratic
ticket seems to be sweeping the
state like a whirlwind. Never
tieless the duties developing up
on every true democrat does not
stop with him. Every mans ell
ection on the ticket deserves the
same support and fidelity that
Mr.. Stanley seems sure to get.
No man nominated in years,
whether he be in politics or bust
ness, can out distance honest
Bob Green's popularity. No man
no matter where he lives or what
