Teachers Meeting at Amistad

A most interesting teachers meet
ing was held in Amistad last Friday
and Saturday. The whole popula-
tion of Amistad and vicinity turned
OUT. The ladies prepared chicken
and turkey for the various times that
the ianer man needed such things.
Two hundred were at the banquet
Saturday night. The principal fea-
ture Of the meetings was the talk
made each time by DR. Roberts. His
lectures were inspiring. Rev. Smith
was every where helping to make
every one happy. He also made
some compelling talks, County Supt.
Errett pre- sided, AMI his report Of
the state ASSOCIATION was excellent. y
1.-The principal thing we wish to
notice concerning this meeting WAS
the fact that every flrmer, every
preacher, and these are twenty in
Amistad and vicinity, every mer.
chant, every housekeeper was there.
And all took a prominent part, not
by talking, at least by being good
listeners. Their attitude showed
that their hearts were in the work.
y Several teachers tray eled over one
hundred miles to attend the meeting
and some went nearly two hundred
miles. On Monday Dir. Roberts,
who by the wav, is president Of our
normal University, made an excel
(ent address to the pupils Of The
Clayton Schools. Later, he left
with Mr. Errett for Des Moines and
Folsom. He will return home at
the end of the week, gong by way
of Ration.
One feature Of our meeting at
Amistad was resolution memorial
izing the legislature to make it pos
sible for ali rural schools TO have
seven months OF school annually.
There will be no more teachers
meetings in Union Couny until the
close of the normal.

This statement was wade TODAY by
Emil Tranquil prominent Belgian

1t was not realizrd generally, NJ.
Tranquil said, that there still were
7 1000 600 persons in Belgium who
virtually entirely dependent for food

In all the history Of the world, ;"
NJ Tranquil continued. there is no
precedent for community of seven
million souls being faced with star
yation and denied by the belligerenst
every possible means of self preserva-
ton.
"We indeed are the Ishmael of
Europe You in England say you
can not trade with your enemy. You
say YOU can not open the port of Ant
werp, our door of relief, because it
would be of advantage to Germany.
You say you can not send US mon

enemy.
Thus the Germans, the French
aud the British have ring of steel
around our territory through which
none NAV enter and none may depart
without the permission of the bellig
erents.
THE Germans say, If England
likes to.al.ow trade with Antwerp
your industries will revive. If she

suppose you most take the conse.

The house and senate this morning,
