Democrats Have Majority.

The first roll call in the house show
ed AT members present and eight alb
sentees-one of them accounted for by
death.
The Democratic majority, although
reduced, put Speaker Clark back in
the chair, 221 to 1874, and when the
brush came on readopting the rules OF
the last house the Democratic leaders
showed they still had majority in
band, beating Republican Leader
Mann's proposal for revision, 209 to
1872.
In the senate the newly elected and
reelected members took the oath The
body was leaderless when Secretary
Baker raped for order at noon, and
Senator Martin Of Virginia was chos-
en- to preside. Thirty senators were
sworn in, Senators Brady of Idaho and
Smith of South Carolina being absent
The cloture fight, as q result of it's
failure in the Democratic caucus, did
not come up. When the old rules were

Montana announced that he reserved
the right to submit rule revisions at
later time.

Healthy Reaction.

Fortunate are they who react health
ily. They have an easy path through
life. no matter what they may meet.
The habit of reacting healthily from
the small trials gives them power to
vanuuish the big tests, even the calam-
tiles.
And pitiful are they who react un-
healthily. Every day of their lives
they ;nfict torment on themselves,
no matter hov favored they may be
by fortune. Their practice OF reacting
unhealthily from small things makes
them easy vi Inns of the big trials.

HARVEST MOON

September is the month of the har-
vest moon, so called because it lights
the. harvest fields for labor, but more
generally esteemed because it is large
and round and beautiful and justifes
all lovers in "lengthening the days by
stealing few hours from the night.
1t may serve the harvesters, this year,
if through any desire of theirs to la
bor longer, because so much harvest
ing time has been lost in, the rain and
the tasks have been delayed. This
year the full moon will come on the
23rd, the same day as the equinox.
On that day, it will rise at 5:51 p. M,
and it will be up at 8 o'clock on the
four succeeding days.
Venus passed the sun on the 18th
to become an evening star, but it will
not be sufficiently far from the sun
this month to be visible. Later on,
however, it will be a brilliant object in
the twilight on the western horizon on
the 9th. Saturn and Mars are in the
morning sky and may be seen about a
degree apart at this time. The sun
crosses the equator on the 23rd at
1923 p. m, bringing the autumn and
bidding the summer adieu.

New Ruling on
School Statutes

Constituting recent changes in the
school laws, Attorney General Edward
g. Turner Friday handed down these
opinions:
ga school district will not be de-
barred from receiving state aid be-
cause of the fact that the Board o.
Education Of said district has EN-.
ployed teachers at salaries in excess
of those required by the provisions Of
Section 1891 Of the General Assembly
provided however, that the average Of
salaries paid by said Board Of Educa-
ton to the high school to teachers o1
said district is more than $40 month
"It is not necessary for Board Of
Education in making application fol
state aid to show the exact amount
which each high school teacher en-
ployed by said board is entitled to
receive according to the terms of his
contract of employment.
IF said application shows the num-
Der of high school teachers employed
the number of months for which they
are employed, and the total amount
of the salaries which said high school
teachers will be entitled to receive un-
der the terms of their contract of
employment, the State Auditor will be
able to determine whether said Board
of Education has complied with the
provisions of the law"

LARGE ATTENDANCE AT THE
OBERLINBUSINESS COLLEGE

The Oberlin Business College open
ed its fall term Sept. 7, with a large
attendance and the finest class of stu
dents that ever entered this institu-
ton. These students are from all
parts of Ohio and several other states.
The Business College at Oberlin has
made great advancement the past
year. The fact that it has been
placed upon the Accredited List of
Ohio Colleges is attracting many
teachers who wish to teach commercial
branches. Many of the leading COM
mercial teachers in the high schools
of Ohio are graduates of the Oberlin
Business College. More calls were
received the past summer than could
be filled.

Big Crops Sure
in Spite of Rain

In spite Of the heavy rains, and
their injurious effect, Ohio will have
some big crops, according to Secre-
tary R. w. Dunlap of the state board
of agriculture. Six weeks ago pre-
dictions were made that there would
be a bumper crop Of wheat, corn, oats,
potatoes and hay, but the excessive
rainfall has made it necessary to re-
wise these predictions.
While the crops will be large they
will not be what was expected before
the heavy rains came. The corn
production for this year will be
around 10000 bushels, and the po-
tato crop will be about two-thirds nor
NAL, according to estimates. One
benefit of the wet weather has been
improvements Of pastures.

Experiment Station
Value to Farmer

& 5a + y
Mr.. Farmer, are you taking advan-
tage of the experiment station in
your state If not you are losing
valuable information which is COM
piled for your benefit.
Practical farm work is being done
continually at the various experiment
stations Of the country and the results
are recorded, and bulletins on these
experiments are to be had free.
Even the oldest farmer is certain
to encounter some puzzling problems,
and by writing to the experiment
station he may have them solved for
him.
The state carries on experiments
for the benefit of the farmers and
those in charge Of the work are only
too willing to give out any inforna-
ton that is wanted.
A trip to the experiment station
will be well worth your while, as you
will have chance to see the vast and
valuable work carried on there and
come to realize what can be accom-
plished.
Not only crop raising is carried on,
but experiments in feeding live stock
are being made from time to time and
the results of these experiments may
be interesting.
The successful farmer is willing to
learn, and he can find no better place
than the agricultural college to get
the desired information.
Farming is business which has adj
vanced with leaps and bounds in the
last decade, and much of this improve
ment is due to the good work accom-
plished at the experiment stations.
These modern methods are tried out
and when they are profitable the
farmer is informed. Many old farm
ing ideas have been proven to be of
little value by the work carried on at
the experiment station.
The state spends money annually to
further the interests of the farmer and
it is up to him to take advantage Of
the work carried on for his benefit.

NORMAN TABOR HAS
OWN TRAINING IDEAS
Athlete Preparing For Mile Can
Eat Anything That Agrees
With Him.

SAN FRANCISCO. Cal. Sept -
Training for the mile run has been
given the most scientific study by Nor
man 8. Taber. worlds record holder
for that distance, and. in explaining
his methods. he skaters many ap-
proved tenets still clung to by his less
speedy competitors.
He believes. for instance, that an
athlete training for the mile may eat
practically anything that agrees with
him.
ITO run a mile he says, "a man
must maintain his strength by eating
solid food that will build up endur-
ance. The old way of training on
toast and light foods would not suit
the athlete of today"
The miller of today is not trained as
a plodder, but rather a combination Of
! plodder and sprinter, according to Ia
| ber's system.
"I think" declares Taber. that men
! training for the mile will find 1t best
to arrange their practice runs to come
at the time of dav when the actual
! race is to be run"
Cross country work. to begin with:
a steady application to the process Of
developing endurance; then sprinting
at intervals. and finally a daily combi-
nation Of distance running and sprint
ing, is TabeI's advice for men training
for the mile.
A long siege Of cross-country work
Is not desirable, he maintains. It
should, however. be indulged in for
| a week or more to strengthen the legs
and the wind. A three-mile slow
run on the track is about the limit Of
the endurance training, he says
Tabor was a member of the Oxford
| relay team that competed at the
P"nnsNlvania Eames last year. and a
student Mt Brown Cnlvel sity prior to
that In lsls he won the national mile
ehan1ptonship.
