wINKING arr "A GOLD NINE

New York, Jan. Tone eyelash Of
a woman is worth $40, the expert of
the Jersey Central Railroad grudging-
ly admits.
Miss Julia Purebsky Of No. l26
Prospect Avenue, Bayonne, valued
certain lashes she had lost at $500 a.
piece, and was SO certain she would
be upheld in her contention that she
was willing to go to court to fight 1t
out.
One day, months ago, Miss Pure
bsky stood at the Twenty-second
Street station of the railroad, await
ing a train. A locomotive passed and
flashed out hot cinders. One of these
landed against her left eye and five
lashes were singed off. She demand
ed $500, and when the company re-
fused to settle, she sued.
Recently, when the case was calico
for trial il was announced that it had
been settled out of court, the company
paying $4,000, which was $50 less pei
eyelash than Miss Purebsky's valua'
ton.

Mrs. Mcfarland and National Anthem
~. MIA A.. po~,,kl;c

Mrs. Mcfarland and National Anthem.
To the Editor Of the Republic.
| heartily agree to the statement
made by Louis Dodge in Sundays Re-
public, December 26, that it is freakish
and undigniied to mix our American
national anthem in with the medley
of other airs; and it is a dissertation
also; because it does not permit the
proper respect being paid to it.
When the "Star-Spankled Banner
is played everyone should rise and
"stand at attention" until it is com
pleted. But when it is only a bar or
strain in the medley, people can scar
|cely get to their feet before It is
switched off to something else, and
they feel that it wasn't worth while to
rise. All patriots should object to
medleys being played which contain
our national anthem on any and all oc-
casions. Insist that it be cut out Of
them and that it be played complete
and alone.
1t would be a beautiful custom to
close all concerts with "The Star
Spangled Banner" with all standing
3.
quietly and respectfully until the end
Teachers and parents should in
~struct their children what is the proper
etiquette due the national anthem and
our flag.
The Daughters of the American
Revolution have been working to this
end and ask the cooperation Of al
patriotic men and women.

COUNTY SCHOOL NOIts
By W. CLYDE JOHNSON.
County School supt.

Culweu has made a wonderful i'm
provennent in the appearance Of their
school home. The house Is now pleas
ant and cheerful inside, because Of a
coat Of new paint. They have also a
Jacket for their stove and have bought
some new books for the library. They
are not far from meeting the require-
ments for approval Miss Fiossie
Parker is getting excellent results
with her heading classes. These made
the best recitations | have yet heard
Carter in South Culver is newly
psihtsd and prepared, has a solid foun-
dalton. a new porch with concrete
floor, a concrete well top and new
pump. and new blinds for the out
buildings. / think this a good start,
and feel sure that they win continue
the good work until they have a
school home that is a credit to the
community.
Michigan has an approved school.
They have painted their Building, got
a sanitary water bucket, and new
lamps. Miss Parker had an excellent
entertainment Christmas night.
Prairie Mound has new plaster, a
new pump. and d beautiful flag got
by their teacher, Miss nellie Ball, and
her pupils, who sold buttons to earn
the money for it.
East Lick is another approved
school. 1t is also being improved each
year. The house was painted inside,
and a new yard fence was built this
year. She has a fine school.
West Lick is paying the highest
salary in the county this year to Miss
Mary Hanna. She gets $65 per
month. They will also have an eight
month school this year. They have
oiled the floor, which | believe is the
best spent money that a district pays
out. / believe that the dust in the
school room is largely the cause of
the colds, sore threats and even the
more serious diseases that are inter-
fering so much with school work.
BY oiling the floor, and by using a
sweeping compound (snow viii make
a good sub~stitute,if used in the norm
ing while the floor is cold) and by
using a hard erayon, much of the dust
can be kept down. | am sure it will
pay. Many arc trying it.
Elm Bend is another school that is
trying hard to become an improved
school, and a credit to the community.
This year they have put a solid foun-
dation under the house, a concrete top
on the well, and repaired the plaster.
Miss Anna Hammett gave a pie sup
per and made more than $40, with
which she has bought two charts, a
fine large globe, a lock for the door,
shades for the windows, books for
the library, and a case to put them in.
Such improvements as these deserve
the praise of all interested in better
rural schools.
Many schools had Christmas enter
tainments. I was invited by several
and regret that l could not attend all,
