LEE SCHOOL FUND
WILL BE RICHER
Second, ApportIonment Of Interest will
BE Made from Permanent
School Fund.

The school fund OF Lee county will
receive an addition amounting to ST.
648.72, when the apportionment Of I'm
terest for 1915 from the permanent
state school fund will be made by F..
8. Shaw, auditor of state, on Sept. s..
The division will be on the basis Of
he 21-100 cents for each person Of
school age in the ninety-nine icoun-
ties OF Iowa.
There are 667, 1852 persons OF school
age in the state. The interest to be
.apportioned amounts to s10s,275.18.
This Is little less than the interest
last year, as the permanent school
fund was slightly reduced. An estate
which had been paid over to the
school fund was slightly reduced. An
estate which had been paid over to
the school fund was withdrawn, as an
heir appeared and secured an order
of court on this fund for nearly $10.-
600.
On this basis there are 1911
youths OF school age in this county.
The total amount distributed is S108,
275.1S, representing 667,952 persons.
The state will pay the amounts
due to each of the counties. The
county officials in turn will pay to
the school districts within the county
the amounts due, according to the
number of persons Of school age EN-
rolled.

NEW YORK, Aug. 20.-The capture
OF Novo Georgiewsk by the Germans
lis without any military Importance
The fortress was quite useless to tn :
Russians after the evacuation OF the
yistula line. 1t is probable the only
reason the garrison did not retreat
from the Vistula with the main STAY
forces, was because the teutons ha1
blocked the direction OF retirement.
The announcement from Petrograd
upon the evacuation OF Warsaw that
Novo Georgiewsk was being retained
as long as possible to delay the Ger
mans. was not based on facts.
Novo Georgiewsk is about twenty
miles northwest OF Warsaw and COM
mands only single line of railway
running between east Prussia and
Warsaw. It Is In no sense a railway
fortress as was Maubeuge to which
the French chung during the Paris re-
treat one year ago. By sacrificing
garrison OF about 10000 men who
eventually had to surrender, the
French retained Meubeuge long enough
to disarrange seriously the supplies

which the Germans needed during the
rush for the Seine.
There was no similar reason why the
Slavs should have held fast Novo
Georgiewsk, as an isolated fortress.
The Novo Georgiewsk positions were
constructed to prevent flank attack
being delivered against Warsaw.
When Warsaw fell, Noyo GeorgiewsAk
became useless. The Germans have
not been delayed in any respect pc
cause OF Novo Georgiewsk's de-
fiance. All roads needful for tne
pursuit Of the Slavs have been kept
open, and the investing force couid
well be spared temporarily to make
permanent prisoners Of the Russian
garrison.

COCOANUT OIL MAKES
A SPLENDID SHAMPOO

If you want to keep ycur hair in
good condition, the less soap you use
the better.
Most soaps and prepared shampoos
contain too much a1kali. This dries
the scalp, makes the hair brittle, and
is very harmful. Just plain mulsifed
cocoanut oil (Which is pure and en-
tire1y grcaseless), is much better than
soap or anything else you can use for,
shampooing, as this can't possibly in
jure the hair.
Simply moisten your hair with
water and rub it in. One or two
teaspoonfuls will make an abundance
of rich, creamy lather, and cleanses
the hair and scalp thoroughly. The
lather rinses out easily, and removes
every particle of dust, dirt, dandruff
and excessive oil. The hair dries
quickly and evenly, and it leaves it
fine and silky, bright, fluffy and easy
to manage.
You can get mulsifed cocoanut oil
at most any drug store. 1t is very
cheap, and few ounces is enough to
last everyone in the family for
months.

there was nothing to bear 1t out.
Germany, of course, it was stated,
would be given every chance to tell
her side Of the story before the ad-
ministration made up its mind.
The pessimist's view naturally,
was that the Berlin admiralty meant
the attack incidentally as an answer
to the latest American note concern
ing Americans rights at sea. Against
this view, optimists called attention
to stories Of an extensive German pro-
paganda In this country to win, among
othe.. things, Americans good will In
the European struggle Was 1t likely,
it was asked. that, after all their er-
forts in this direction, continuing
even after the American note was
dispatched, the Germans would dis
count all their efforts by deliberate
ly unfriendly act? There was an OFF,
cial disposition to deprecate the sugs
gestiop, that, at the worst, the Ara
bic affair meant war between Ger
many and the United States.
