FOUND UNDER
R. R. BRIDGE
BELIEVED TO BE PART OF PLAN
TO IMPEDE SHIPMENTS OF WAR
MUNITIONS TO THE EAST.

Oakland, Dec. 13.-A package con
tanning six sticks of dynamite, equip
ped with caps and fuses, was found
by an Italian fisherman today under
a bridge over Alhambra creek, short
distance west of Martinez, which car
ries the main line tracks of the South
ern Pacific Railroad. Over this bridge
pass trains carrying the output of the
Hercules Powder Company and the
Standard Oil Company to the East.
Officers were Immediately sent out
to search the region, as it was feared
similar packages might have been
placed under other bridges and cul-
verts, which are numerous in the vic
Unity.
Special Agent James Prindeville of
the Southern Pacific Company said
tonight that the entire Western divis-
ion of the railroad, which extends from
Oakland to Ogden, Utah, will be placed
under special guard.
Both Sheriff Veale and Prindeville
expressed the opinion that the dyna
mite was placed under the bridge by
someone desirous of impeding the pro-
gress of war munitions, which, it is
said, are shipped over the main line
in large quantities. Trains of ex-
plosives frequently are dispatched by
the Hercules Powder Company, and
every other day the Standard Oil Com
pany dispatches a train under armed
guards for Chicago, under sixty-eight
hour schedule.

made cheap soup before the war.
How to live on l. cents a day

begin at the market, learning how
to buy then the value and uses of
what they have bought, and how to
get the most out of it.
The work also includes designing,
cutting and sewing.
I'VE owe it to the soldiers who are
fighting that when they return to

LOOKING FOR WORK

Everywhere men complain about
work; even boys and girls in school or
business find work tedious and irk-
some, but it isn'tthe work half SO much
as their own lack of physical strength
that makes it hard.
Rich blood, strong lungs and health
full digestion make work pleasurable
in business, in school or even house
work, and if those who are easily tired
who are not sick, but weak and ner-
vous-would. just take SCOTS Emul-
sion for one month and let its pure
concentrated food create richer blood
to pulsate through every artery and
vein-let it builda structure of healthy
tissue and give you vigorous strength
you would find work easy and would
look for more. Insist on Scott's.

Street Dont's to Save Lives.

A list of "dont's" directed to
both pedestrians and drivers. Some
of the warnings to chauffeurs are:
Don't imagine you are careful
driver because you shout or toot
your horn at pedestrian crossing in
front of you.
Don't forget that the pedestrian
also is permitted to use the roadway.
Don't forget that children must
play sometimes in the streets.
Don't fail to slow down at cross
mgs.
To pedestrians:
Don't vacillate on the approach of
a vehicle. Act normally.
Don't forget that the proper place
to cross the street is at the crossing.
Don't dream while crossing the
street; you are likely to wake up in
the hospital.

punishment in Franklin 3 in Wash
ington, and in Lincoln.
There were cases of truancy in
Franklin . in Washington and 2 in
Jefferson
The above report in some respects
is better than any that we have made
this year, however, the teachers and
myself are not yet satisfied with the
showing that we are making, in some
respects. We are having entirely too
many cases OF tardiness in some of
our schools. We find that very large
per cent of these cases of tardiness
are due to very small number of
pupils who are habitually tardy. The
teacher that had the largest number
of tardies, found on investigation that
majority of these were made by six
pupils who were persistently tardy
during the month. Your board has
rule which provides for suspension
of pupils who are habitually tardy.
The spirit of this rule is not to sus-
pend a child who is tardy more than
times, but it is the purpose of the
rlule to operate in a case where a
child willingly and Intentionally is
continuously tardy. We believe that
quite good deal of this may be rene
died If the parents will only cooper
ate and assist their children in get
ting to school on time, and to that end
we earnestly ask the cooperation of
every parent in trying to obliterate
tardiness from our school system.
During the month the state teachers
association was held in Oklahoma
City. In accordance with your re-
quest some twenty teachers attended
this meeting. On their return they
were asked at the general faculty
meeting some of the things that they
saw and heard that were helpful to
them at the meeting of this associa-
ton. From the replies given to this re-
quest it was very evident that these
teachers were highly benefited by this
meeting, and that the work in our
school will be more efficient because
they attended.
During the month the Mothers
Clubs of the different wards bought
nice line of tools for the boys of
the manual training department, and
now manual training is being taught
in a systematic way to the pupils of
the 7th and Sth grades in all the ward
schools. We believe this will meet
long felt need in these upper grades
and will not only be helpful, but will
be the means of causing increased in
terest in school work by many of the
boys of these upper grades
On the whole, the work of both
teachers and pupils has been very sat
isfactory and we earnestly solicit the
cooperation of every patron and cit
zen who is interested in having the
very best school system in our city
that is possible
Respectfully submitted,
