The program clock recently pro-
yided for by the board of education
was installed in the high school yes
terday. The clock is designed 10 oper-
ate automatically the programs in the
high school, Manual Arts building and
Lincoln school, sounding a gong two
and one-half minutes before the close
Of each period and then at the end
of the period itself. The clock is
equipped with five discs and can be
provided with eight, each capable OF
operating a program. Thus the reg
ular high school and Lincoln schoo!
programs can be operated and there
is still room for six more programs
to be operated by the clock The
night school program can be operated
on the same disc as the regular high
school program. The clock can also
be provided with fire alarm connec-
ton which can ring every bell oper-
ated by the clock, but as yet none has
been installed. Principal Burton
stated that he expected that eventual
Iy such an addition would be made.
The total cost of the clock is about
$40. Considering the extreme useful
ness of the arrangement this amount
is very moderate.

JUDGE FOR YOURSELF
Which is Better-Try an Experiment
or Profit by a Mexico
Citizens Experience.

Something new is an experiment.
Must be proved to be as represent
ed.
The statement of a manufacturer is
not convincing proof Of merit.
But the endorsement Of friends is.
Now supposing you had a bad back,
A lame, weak, or aching one,
Would you experiment on it?
You will read of many so-called
cures.
Endorsed by strangers from far
away places.
It's different when the endorsement
comes from home.
Easy to prove local testimony.

Dear Mitchell:
Quincy, Illinois, Oct. Is, 1871
note that you are having a big Fall
Celebration in Mexico this week. We
just finished ours last night. Will
send you a paper giving some Of the
details of the big Industrial and Civ
les Parade which was the "end-up'
for our program. 1t was certainly a
big thing, The parade was over six
miles long, and | stood two hours and
twenty minutes watching it go by.
We have all had a somewhat strenuous
and altogether enjoyable time for the
last few days, but when | read of
Mexico's bright lights and the big
things that are being done at the Phall
Phestivities, it's impossible to keep
from wishing that | was back in "Old
Mexico to help enjoy these things.
Sincerely yours,

Playing with a railroad tie on the

of Auxvasse, recently, three small

Engineer Blackman in throwing on all
brakes when he saw the obstacle is all
that averted an accident.
