economy on clothes and other necessi-

Notice Vests Are in Fashion.
The skirt has its slight fullness put
into a hip yoke IN which the wales of
the fabric go across the figure. Above
this yoke is a band of embroidery in
worsted. The coat is short, we'll opened
in front, and the touch of novelty is in
the vest of beige velveteen that hides
the blouse. 1t also is embroidered in
colored worsteds to simulate chain

days. The lace ruff1e flowing away from
the neck is interesting as contrast
to the high collars of the moment.

SCHOOL BOND ELECTION
TUESDAY, APRIL THE 9th
At Which Time The Taxpayers of District No. z VIII
Decide The Question of More Room

Elsewhere in to-day's News
will be found the call for the
election to decide whether OF
not bonds in the sum of Fifteen
Thousand dollars for the erec.
ton of school house in the city
of Meade shall be issued.
This question is pretty well
understood and was thoroughly
discussed at the annual meeting.
There seems to be an idea
prevalent that the proposed plan
for the building contains a large
gymnasium. Thisis a mistake.
1t will be seen from the ac-
companying photograph of the
proposed building, the first floor
is in reality basement, and un-
der the law could not be used as
class rooms, and in most build
ings would be wasted, but in
this particular plan this space is
converted into an assem- bly, room
and the seating capacity will be
sufficient for the students as an
assembly room for all high school
purposes and will also serve as
a hall in which to hold all school
attractions, whereas now a hall
must be rented. Then the room
can be furnished with movabl
seats and when these are re.
moved the room can be used for
Basket ball games. In this way
space which would otherwise be
Meade County news. [volume] (Meade, Kan.) 1900-1918, 1915-04-22

wasted, can be made use of by
the entire school. The next
floor is devoted exclusively to
class rooms. For these reasons
the proposed plan is considered
a very practical one.
1t must also be remembered
that at the present time one
room of the basement of the
present building is being used as
a class, room-this use of base
ment rooms as class rooms is
contrary to the health laws.
1t is Necessary also to rent addi-
tional room for the first and the
second grade and for the domes-
tic science department-this
rent amounts to more than what
the interest on the bonds would
amount to.
AT the annual meeting it was
decided to divide the grades
this will require three more
rooms, making in all six addition
al rooms absolutely necessary
and just what the new building
would contain.
AS our school grows in attend
ance we must build additional
room to accom- modate it.
Let every tax payer interested
in education vote for the best
interests of our school on Tues
day, April 9th.
Vote.for the bonds.

to tell you, and other friends, of

This city has two big rice mills
where the rice is cleansed of its
hulls and then polished, making
it a merchantable article of food
and commerce. Thousands of
bushels are hulled and polished
by these mills, truly great in
dustry. Then come the banks

two, the Calcasieu National and
the First National. am some

who run this bank, 1 refer to the
Calcasieu National, and want to
say never met nicer lot of men
than those who run this bank.
They haYe in connection with it
a trust and savings bank, both in
the same building and room and

people to run them both, the
combined deposits amount to
the snug little sum of 81, $50, 66S-
