Graphite in his hand and repeated the
same experiment. This time, after
wetting, his finger moved over the palm
easily and smoothly and did not black
as rapidly, proving the ability of Dix
on's Flake Motor Graphite to resist
wear.
The amorphous graphite when rubbed
between two pieces of paper under
pressure rolled up into little granules
The fake, the more it was rubbed
worked up smoother, SINNER, more
slippery surface. This explains why
people who buy plain graphite find it a
poor lubricant, while selected flake
graphite makes bearings better and re.
duces friction.

ORGANIZATIONS TAKE A SLAP
AT WALTER FISHER

Walter L. Fishers word will not be
recognized as authority in the coun-
Gil fight over the forfeiture of the Au-
tomato Phone Co. if Chicago organi-
cations representing more than half
The city's population have say.
The gas and electric light commit
tee of the city council is holding a
hearing today. The topic of discus
sion was Walter Fisher. The things
that were said about this eminent
parsonage were sometimes caution.
Representatives of city organizations
were the speakers.
Fisher, an attorney aligned with
the commerce committee, received an
invitation from Mayor Thompson
asking him to give an opinion on the
phone forfeiture ordinance. 1t is eX-
pected that the committee will deter
mine whether or not Fishers advice
should be given any heed by the COM
mittee of city council.
Ed NockeIs, secretary of the Chi
cago Federation of Labor, led the as
sault on Fisher. He told the commit
tee that Walter L. was simply stool
pigeon for Victor Lawson of the Daily
News.
''The News" said Nockels, ''is sub
sidized by phone company adYertis-
ing. 1t has personal reasons ftT not
wishing to see the city take over the
phones. Its editorial columns have
clearly displayed its stand.
Fisher is no man to receive an
opinion from in a matter such as
this" insisted Nockels. "He has so
long been nurtured at the breast of
Big Business that is opposed to the
peoples interest that he could give
no opinion except one biased in favor
of La Sale street"
Mayor Thompson sent to the COM
mittee today list of five questions
he would like to have Fisher answer.
The questions were:

PENSION FOR TEACHERS

The teachers pension bill will be-
come a law and the policy of provid-
ing for old age for the teachers long
in service will be fixed for Iowa. The
state will undertake the regulation
of the system but will not, at this
time, be called on for any financial
aid.
Representative Grason expects to
secure passage through the house
this week of the teachers pension
bill. 1t is a special order. THE bill
is meeting with much favor" said
Professor Grason. II have every
reason to believe it will become a
law very soon. AS originally drafted
il contained a provision for a millage
tax to augment the fund out of which
the annuities would be paid, but that
has been dropped out, and for the
present the law will provide only for
the accumulation of a fund from
the teachers themselves. That will
be sufficient to carry it for several
years and afterward provision can
be made for state aid when the OBJ
legations against the fund became
heavy. 1t will be a start in the
right direction. The state could
we'll afford to literally aid the an
nuity fund. because it will in time
lessen the demand for additional nor
NAL schools and training. One rea-
son we need to do so much in the
way of training teachers is that we
are not keeping our teachers. The
annuity law will be an incentive to
remain longer in the profession.

TEACHERS MEETING AND
BOYS AND GIRLS CLUBS

Prof Bishop was at the court
house last Saturday and took up the
.r0rk of the different clubs with
teachers, pupils and parents. The
canning work was of special interest
as a demonstration was given. Prof.
Bishop and the girls donned their
aprons and gave a fine exhibit Oh
what can be done with the new pro-
cess of canning. Many of the ladies
of the town were present and pro-
nounced the work a great success.
We make the clipping below in or
der that our readers can gain q ful-
Ter idea of the work.
Iowa Boys and Girls to Go on Pill
grimage to Washington
A remarkable group of boys and
girls will set out from Iowa State

Their trip to Washington, under the

their reward for winning their re-
spective contests.
The last years champion corn
grower is Earl Zeller of Green coun-

of tomatoes on a tenth of an acre
and net profit of $115.57 in their

ing contest was won by Ruth Fleek
of Floyd county, with score of SO "
points on her prize loaf and net
profit of 1927 for the year on her
club work. The baby pork produc-
ton contest was won by Clement
Miller of Jefferson county, who made
a profit of $48.0S in growing ten
pigs.
The trip will continue until March
6 and every expense OF the young
people will be paid for them by the
donors of the trips. In the corn con-
test, twenty-one county winners viii

There is such a thing as hog
