At the close of the election Mrs
W. P. Galloway gave splendid talk
on efficiency in the Public Schools"
The talk was unusually entertaining
and created much interest in the pres
ent-day school system. Mrs. Galloway
told of the first schools in the United
States. when the schoolmaster was not
the janitor Of the church, as well as the
sexton. Among his many duties for
each day he rang the school bell, kept
the church in perfect order, and as
sisted at all church services and fun
erals. For funerals he dug the grave
and extended the invitations to those
who were expected to attend, and in
the days when there were no tele
nj,
his various and sundry duties the
schoolmaster received s160.sO a year.
However. reading and spelling and
writing were the only subjects required
OF the teacher 70 teach. Mrs. Galloway
told OF the development of the schools
since the first part of the nineteenth
century, when little attention was paid
to education. She also told Of how the
civil war interfered with the progress
Of the schools and how the schools de-
veloped after the war. Mrs. Galloway
spoke Of the development of the kinder
ga-ten and how domestic science, man
ual training, agriculture, and athletics
have shown the wonderful advance
ment of the school system. Mrs. CAL
| loway explained the need and the OPP
portunity of the vocational night school
| for the foreigner. who is obliged to
work all day and unable to attend
school. It would give him the chance
to learn our language and customs
and most important Of all to learn
! Some profession TO which he is natur-
ally adapted
During the afternoon Mrs. S. P.
Krisely read the annual letter from
| the Human school in Kentucky, a
school for mountain whites, in which
| the club has been interested and help
| ing for several years.

ASK J. w. GOOD
MAN, TO PAY sa,73e FOR CARE
oF.JAcos BLINK.
BILL is FOR CARE OF
COUNTY FARM INMATE
Agreement Entered Into Thirty Years
Aao Between BIink's Mother and J
w. Goodman Provided For Care OF
Blink, the Consideration Being Forty
Acres of Land.

Basing its claim partly on an OLD
than thirty years, the county has pre-
pared a bill of s2,736 against ]. W.
Goodman, well-to-do farmer Of near
Rhodes, for the care Of Jacob Blink,
of Eden township, who died at the
county farm a few weeks ago after De-
ing an inmate there for almost nine
teen years. Blink died just three days
before the nineteenth year was up. Inc
bill is at the rate Of ST. a month.
Especially because of the agreement
that is on file the supervisors are pre-
pairing TO force, If necessary, settle
ment of the bill.
Mother Provided For Care.
Distant relatives of Blink called the
attention Of the board TO the existence
Of the contract that provides for the
care Of Blink. This agreement was en-
tered into between Mrs. Elizabeth
Blink and J. w. Goodman July 9, 1883.
II provided in substance that Goodman
was to have the income and possession
of forty acres of land in Eden town
ship in consideration for which he was
to care for and maintain Jacob Blink,
the son Of Mrs. Elizabeth Blink, during
his life time.
Provisions Of Agreement.
Excerpts Of the agreement read: Ihat
Goodman in consideration of GER
tain tract Of real estate'-forty acres
in Eden township which We're trans
ferred to him by the Sheriff in 1sS2-
agrees with the said Elizabeth Blink
to care for and maintain Jacob Blink
son of the said Elizabeth Blink
The agreement further provides
Blink was 10 Occupy and work the forty
acres as long as he was able to do SO.
u. ". Goodman is not 10 maintain the
said Jacob Blink as long as he shall
occupy said land" the agreement con-
tinues. but when he shall be unable
TO do so, he shall SO care for him dur
ing the time Of his life and in the
meantime said real estate shall be un-
der the control of the said J. ". Good
man as legal owner"
The supervisors are quite confident
it will be possible TO make settlement
with Goodman without recourse to
lawsuit. Goodman, t is said, has
shown disposition to compromise, but
| he feels that he did a good deal for
Blink while the latter was alive, and
that he should not be compelled 10 pay
the full claim.
| 1t is said Goodman admits the
geniueness Of the agreement. but he IS
quoted as saying that he had forgotten
| it. The land is worth $50 10 5000 an
acre, 1t is said.
