Cheer to Echo Man Who Spoke
Against This in School,
Says Supt. Aldrich
CONFERENCE WAS GOOD
Many Things Of Interest to Schools
man and Layman Discussed
Nineteen Conference Sec
tions Held.

A stand against military training in
the high schools was vigorously ap-
plauded and the speaker cheered to
the echo at the conference of super
intendelts from all over the United
States at the recent meeting held in
Cincinnati, William Aldrich, superin-
tendent Of the public schools OF Keo-
kuk said today Mr.. Aldrich returned
last night from Cincinnati.
The speaker, Mr.. Aldrich said, was
n. c. Shafer, state superintendent of
schools in Pennsylvania. He made an
address before the conference in
which he very eloquently declared
against military training in the high
schools. When he had finished, Mr..
Aldrich said that the speaker was
cheered to the echo. and that his very
eloquent talk against this sort of
thing received noisy appreciation.
Mr.. Aldrich said that there were
many matters of interest to the school
man and to the public generally
brought up at this conference which
lasted for several days. Fairgrounds
was one OF the matters brought up at
one of the conference sections.
There were nineteen separate de-
partment meetings at the Cincinnati
conference, SO the superintendent
were rather hard put to get to attend
everything.

An Easy Way to
Increase Weight
Good Advice for Thin Folks.

The trouble with most thin folhs
who wish to gain weight is that Ihey
insist on drugging their stomach or
stuffing it with greasy foods; ruoDlnS
on useless flesh creams or folioW-
ing some foolish physical culture
stunt, while the real cause OF thin
ness goes untouched. You cannot get
fat until your digestive tract assim-
Hates the food you eat.
Thanks to remarkable new scien-
tific discovery, It Is now possible 10
combine into simple form the very
elements needed by the digestive
organs to help them convert food into
rich, fat-laden blood. This master
stroke of modern chemistry is called
Sargol and has been termed the great
est of f1esh-builders. Sargol aims
through its re-generative, reconstruc-
tive powers to coax the stomach and
intestines to literally soak up the fat
tening elements of your food and pass
them into the blood. where they are
carried to every starved, broken-down
cell and tissue of your body. You can
readily picture the result when this
amazing Transformation has taken
place and you notice how your cheeks
al out, hollows about your neck,
shoulders and bust disappear and you
take on from 10 to 20 pounds of solid,
healthy flesh. Sargoi is absolutely
harmless. inexpensive, efficient. WIKI
inson & Co., and other leading drug
gists of Keokuk and vicinity have 1t
and will refund your money II you are
not satisfied, as per the guarantee
found in every package.
Caution:-While Sargol has given
excellent results in overcoming nerv-
Gus dyspepsia and general stomach
troubles it should not be taken by
those who do not wish to gain ten
pounds or more.

an companion were found in a hotel

on additional capital investments,
which have been incurred in the at
tempt to develop greater efficiency in
operation and because of public de-
mand as to safety and quality OF serv-
ice.
1--WE have already shown the re-
markable revenue gains made in the
operation iof western railways and
the amount available for the in.
creased compensation of labor. 1t Is
now our purpose to disclose that any
decline in the net income has not
been due to causes set forth by the
railways. We shall show that any
tendency in this direction has been
and is due to the financial manage
ment of western railways.
I'VE shall show that the constant
tendency has been for those in finan-
cial control of the railways to absorb
revenue gains arising from increased
productive efficiency, by the issuance
Of fictitious securities; that the pro-
ductve efficiency OF the men work
ing today, the operating officials as
we'll as the employees, had already
been hypotheicated and capitalized
before we were born.
"The points we shall submit in this
connection are:
"1.-That the proceeds from the
nlunificient grants of land made by
the federal and state governments to
assist in the building of western rail
ways were not properly used, but
their value. as we'll as the increased
business arising from the develop.
ment of western territory was capi.
talized by the flotation Of fictitious
securities.
THAT the direct financial con.
troll of western railways, and the pc.
-tential control of the economic well
fare of their employees, now rests with
small group CT bankers and finan-
cial institutions, which make and I'M
make by their methods Of administra-
ton of railways, have absorbed pres
ent and future revenue gains of en-
ployes by the issuance of fictitious Sc
curities: in other words, employees
and operating officials are the victims
of the financial administration.
''3-We shall show from the pub
licly expressed opinions of eminent
financiers and financial experts that
this present inequality in the d.stribu-
ton of the output of the industry Is
wrong and that employees should have
a greater measure of particips ton in
the revenues.
I've shall conclude by showing
that despite the financial excuses Of
railways in the past, that they are
still financially able to pay reason
able and fair increases in wages"
