There has been disagree
ment among the patrons of Cen
ter Point School for some time
over the post of road APP
preaching the door. Tho pat

wisely left the matter to the

Here is tip to house builders.
In building stove flues the ex-
pense entailed by laying the
brick fiat instead of setting on
elge is very slight and this ex-
pense ends when the fiue is com
pleted. If the bricks are laid
fl 1t, making wider and safer wall
for the tlue, the insurance is
greatly reduced. This reduc-
tion continues, obviously, during
ing the life of the builing.

TIT possibility that a German sub

M'CALL WINS FOR
 MASS. REPUBLICANS
(Continued from First Page.)

defense of his own actions as gover- nor and to charges of Invisible gov ernment' controlling the republican party for improper purposes. The prohibition candidate confined him. self more closely than any of the oth- CTS to the principal issue in his party platform and declared that both the major parties were controlled by the liquor interests Clark, although run ming on a characteristic progressive party platform, made his contest all most exclusively on the so-ralled sec tarian' issue, urging that measures be taken to amend the constitution so as to prevent the possibility of state money being appropriated for the use of private educational institutions.
 Interest in Suffrage.
 The total vote on the woman suf- frage amendment, falling only about 33,0 900 behind that for governor, showed the widespread interest in the subject which had been created by the active campaigns made both by the suffragists and their opponents. The agitation for and against the amend ment had been in progress for many months and large corps of speakers had toured the state. Yesterday near thousands of polling places women made a final "silent appeal' for the vote, standing all day displaying ban ners in advocacy of their cause. The suffragists were in the minority in every city and almost every town in the state Boston returned majority of 22,175 against the amendment.
 Recall of Curley.
 A movement for the recall of Mayor James M. Curlcy of Boston failed. AL though it's advocates mustered a ma jority of 12,56S, they failed to secure the majority of the registered vote re- quired under the city charter. There was a large number of blank ballots, more than 1000 of those who voted for governor in the city failing to re- cord their preference on the recall oueS ton.
