THE KAISER AND POTATO
BREAD
BY FREDERIC w. RAPER

By FREDERIC w. RAPER
The news comes from Germany that
the kaiser and his family are living
on potato bread, the same as the COM
mon people and the soldiers, which
reminds one of the old limerick:
There was young lady named
Maude,
Who was suspected of being fraud.
She never was able
To eat at the table,
But out in the pantry-Good Lawd."

EXTEND MANUAL WORK
Training Will Also Be Given To
Sixth Grade Pupils.

OskalOOsa school board met in reg
ular session Monday evening for the
first time in the new year and detail
business, claims, etc, received atten-
ton and warrants were authorized.
Miss Ora Victor of the teaching
corps offered her resignation, to take
effect January 18th, and same was &C
cepted. The resignation OF Miss Vic
tor, who has been in Third ward is
made necessary by the illness OF her
mother, who requires her almost con
slant attention. She will complete
the work of the current semester.
Plans for the extension of the man
ual training department are material
izing. The work, which has been
confined to Eighth grade and High
Ischool pupils, is to he extended to in
clude Sixth grade workers and two
new centers are to be established, one
at jefferson school in the Second
ward and one at the new Fourth ward
school.
To care for the increased work an
additional manual training teacher or
an assistant will be employed. The
work in the department with its eX-
listing limitations is so popular and is
being taken by so many of the pupils
that it has now grown almost beyond
the control of one teacher.
Preliminaries looking toward the
securing of bids upon the new Second
ward school are in progress.

T. A revival began Sunday in the Free
Methodist church, but not in the man

were graciously received. Another
one, while praying for others, was con-
victed of her need of a clean heart,
which she sought and obtained. .

are being held up for the present
while the district court deter
mines whether or not the entire
tax is a just one. Part Of the tax
represents the cost Of construct
ing sidewalks along the property
described which is in Strashurg.
The case developed out OF the
sidewalk-building boom in the
town to the south last year when
the village authorities were get.
ting the town in proper shape to
impress the many visitors which
were to assemble there for a big
church convention. In order te
push the work rapidly and to in

Merchant A. Boschker re-

that the people of Holland are.
following their usual pursuits as
if nc. war were in progress. Food
prices are, and will probably con-
tinue to be. high. That makes it
very hard for the wage ge-earner to
even exist, while the farmer and
producer are getting rich. As
an illustration of the high prices
being received by the farmers he
told of having sold a H-year-old
horse for $525. A colt 20 months
oldissworth from $500 to $3.50.
and cows &OO to $500. Live
hogs bring 4OEto as cents a
