and that the notes were without con-
sideration. .sa
lust how Dillenbeck. who was him.
self not indebted to the bank, hap
pened to give the bank notes for almost
$4,000, Is explained in the answer OF
Dillenbeck's attorneys in this wise:
Dillenbeck signed accepsances Of GER
tain drafts drawn by the A. Z. Short
hill Company, and these drafts were
Endorsed by the Shorthill company to
the bank. These drafts, with Dillen-
beck's Endorsement, were later accepted
by the First National Bank, When the
drafts were not taken up by the A. r..
Shorthill Company, Dillenbeck, to make
good under the Endorsement, executed
his promissory notes on which the
bank is now suing
The bank consented Monday after
noon to have It's books ana papers hav-
ing records Of dealings with the A. E.
Shorthill Company during 1912, 1913
and 1914 examined by Dillenbeck's at
ternoy or an accountant. An appli-
cation for the production of these
books had been filed earlier in the day.
The application was made because it
was alleged in Dillenbeck's answer that
the bank books would show what the
bank had done with collateral secur-
ity the Shorthill company posted with
the bank on which Dillenheck was de-
pending to protect him in his accom-
mediation" Of the Shorthill company.

SUPREME COURT APPROVES CON.
soLloArloN or SCHOOLS
VOTED N. MAY, 1918.
HELD UP ~ INJUNcTloNs;
SCHOOL CHILDREN RUN WILD
As Result OF Litigation, School at Fer
suson Has Been Closed For Year
Because No Taxes Gould Be Levied
Board Will Open School and Perfect
Consolidation at Once.

School-a consolidated schools to
be opened at Ferguson for the town
children and those Twins in the terri
tory Of the independent consolidated
school district Of Ferguson that was
organized at a special election held
May IL. 1913. The supreme court has
SO ruled. In decision just handed
down it has affirmed the ruling of
Judge Bradshaw, who dismissed the
case OF the taxpayers of the district
who sought to prevent the consolida-
ton from being perfected.
With the decision in it's favor, the
school board has at once begun to take
steps to organize the school and get
the children back into school temper
arily.
Children Have Been Running Wild.
Thoughtful people Of Ferguson and
it's vicinity. who have followed the
course of this litigation which resulted
in the Ferguson school. being shut up
and remaining closed for a year. while
the children played idly about the
streets of the town, describe this con-
dition as deplorable. Because Of in
functions and restraining orders Of the
court no tax could be levied to carry
on the schools in 1914. They were shut
after the spring term and have not
opened since, because there were no
men or group of men who were willing
to assume the responsibility Of paying
for the maintenance of the schools with
the hope of being repaid out OF the tax
money when it could be levied and coll
lected. Some of the teachers who
taught the spring term, of 1914, have
not yet received their pay, it is said.
Summary Of Old Case.

ARE YOU PLANNING TO
REPAPER?-

Now Is the time to think about re-
papering. The first days OF spring is the
time to do It and the last weeks of
winter is the time to begin to think
about the paper. For deciding on wall
paper is something that cannot be ac-
complished over night or without a great
deal Of deliberation.
First Of all remember that just be-
cause you are tired OF a paper Is no good
reason to have it replaced by another.
Sometimes simply refreshing the cur
tains, adding a few more pictures to
the walls or some flowers to the windows
accomplishes the desired result at de-
cided saving in money and disturbance.
But when a paper is dirty or badly faded
then you owe il to yourself and your
family to have it replaced by fresh
one.
Don't always imagine that an expen-
sive paper is any better than a cheap
one, though the paper hanger sometimes
tries to persuade you that it is. Some
times a cheap paper has just the note OF
color and just the finish you want. II
so stick to it and insist on having it
hung.
Remember that an all-blue paper or an
alI-green paper is pretty sure to fade
little. For this reason 1t is well to
get one of the new mottled effects so
that a little fading where the light strikes
IL most strongly will not detract from
the appearance OF the paper, 1t will in
fact look like a little of the nothing.
Remember that the paper that is in
teresting merely as a design is not al
ways the most effective paper when
hung. Think of the furniture and the
pictures that you intend to use with II
and then decide on the paper simply as
a background. Sometimes a rather un-
interesting color will make the most ef-
fective wall paper, for the simple rea-
son that it serves simply as a back
ground.
On a wall where you are to have a
great many pictures Of various tones
hung there is no better choice OF paper
than a plain blue paper which contains
a good deal of green. This is the sort
of paper that an artist will tell you will
bring the best results. II should be a
good substantial blue and should show
quite a decided cast OF green about il.
Don't attempt gray paper except in a
very finely furnished room. Gray paper
is exceedingly effective with mahogany
or with French furnishings. II is a
rather formal paper. dainty, exquisite.
To use gray paper in a mans den" or
tage of any very informal sort OF room
is exceedingly bad form from the dec
orators point of view.
Beware OF the large ornate fowered
borders that are made TO go with the
new bedroom papers. Remember that you
will have to wake up in the morning
three hundred and sixty-five days a year
and gaze at that ornate border the first
thing. 1t will be the largest, brightest,
most outspoken thing in the room, louder
even than the unwelcome alarm clock.
Think twice and then again before you
decide on it. RatheH choose some one
Of the small. quaint English block de-
signs, or a plain paper with a very mar
row border. Sometimes the footing of
the paper can be used instead of the
border with much effectiveness.

The stars incline, but do not compel.
Saturday, January 80, 1915.
In the circle Of the year no day has
been more unfavorably aspected as this.
Neptune, Mars, and Saturn are all strong
ly evil in their influence.
According to astrology, grave danger OF
foreign complications will menace the
United States and the utmost wisdom
will be required in order to steer clear
of serious consequences.
The President will face the difficulty Of
pIacating a constantly growing contingent
that will demand large expenditures for
defense against possible war.
There is a sinister sign for the Pacific
coast, which will concentrate public at
tention for a brief period.
Activity in the navy is foreshadowed.
Danger that an officer of high rank may
make a mistake is foretold.
In Great Britain a legal case Of inter-
national interest will cause a sensation
in the spring. a London astrologer pre-
diets.
Disgrace for a famous Englishman. also,
is prognosticated, and the death Of dis
tinguished person involved in scandal Is
indicated.
who has wide interests in foreign coun-
tries. He will suffer from much notoriety.
The rising position of Neptune points
to an increase of crime in the United
States and to terrible discomfort among
the lower classes.
Women Of all classes are warned to be
exceedingly circumspect, for there Is a
leading of the stars that is believed to
cause sentimental hysteria.
Adventure and disappointment are pres
aged for many well-meaning persons who
seek positions in foreign hospitals or
other institations established to aid suf-
fering men and women. There Is plan
etary rule, which is exceedingly unfavor-
able for Americans.
Persons whose birthdate 1t Is have the
augury Of litigation and quarrels. Busi-
ness will cause men anxiety, and women
may have unusual worries.
Children born on this day may be seri-
ous-minded. but rather uuick-tempered.
These subjects of Aquarius are likely to
be cautious, steady, and studious. They
are lovers Of liberty, philosophical and
studious. Under favorable conditions they
attain distinction.
