RETALIATION IS
MAKING EXTRA WORK
County Auditors Office Busy With
Extra Work Ordered by
Executive Council.

The task of raising the assessed
valuation of all the stock in the
county with the exception of goats,
is proving to be a big one for the
county auditor and his Office force.
The stock owned by each person
must be gone over by townships, and
it necessarily involves great
amount of work. 1t is probable that
it will be number of weeks yet be-
fore the work is completed. Of
course. the regular routine work of
the office must be taken care Of and
the extra work caused by the action
Of the executive council must come
in between times. However, the Of
fee force is at this time working on
it diligently and completing it as
fast as is possible.

The Duncombe Schools.

At recent meeting of the Dun
combe board of education, Miss Mar
jorie Griggs, of Fort Dodge, was
elected to the position of principal
of the high school to take the place
of Miss Martha Dunn, who resigned.
This completes the corps of teach

eighth grades, Miss Collins; fifth
and sixth grades, Miss Hanrahan;
third and fourth grades, Miss Ma
honey: first and second grades, Miss
Storey. School opens Sept. 4.
The domestic science room has
been fixed up and the new tables
have arrived. Some new equipment
for the science department has al
so been ordered and will probably
arrive in short time. 1t is the
plan of the board of education of

TEACHERS PONDER
ING over PHYSICS
List of Questions Submitted by State
Board Considered an Easy
One.

A number of teachers in the state
are now pondering over the list OF
questions in physics. AS a matter
of fact the questions are not diff
cult to answer, or at least those who
know anything about the subject say
the list is reasonable one, and by
reading them over the opinion as ex-
pressed is confirmed.
A part Of the first question is,
"What is distillation?" OF course.
every one in Iowa knows that since
the first of the year distillation has
not been allowed in Iowa and the
question is not really necessary to
test the knowledge of candidate
for a teachers certificate. However,
the state board probably wanted to
see how far back the prospective
teachers can remember accurately.
Another question is, Describe a
Leyden jar and give one method OF
charging it," The reporter will not
undertake to describe one, but it
seems as il it would be charged the

Former Webster City Young Man
Parents Live on Farm Near
Kamrar-Was a Fright
full Accident.
NINE CARS WERE SMASHED
Two Men Meet Death Young Ar.
mold Left Webster City
Last Spring.
NINE CARS WERE SMASHED.

A dispatch was received in this
city yesterday by Chief Nicker-
son from Chicago, inquiring for the
relatives of Marion Arnold, the me-
chanician for the Stutz racing car,
who was killed in the automobile
races at Kalamazoo, Mich, Sun
day afternoon. Young Arnold, who
was about 25 years OF age. was the
youngest son of Mr.. and Mrs. William
H. Arnold, who reside on farm near
Kamrar.
A brother, William Arnold, left at
once for Chicago and Kalamazoo, to
bring home his brothers remains.
The accident in which Mr.. Arnold
lost his life was fearful one in
which two men were killed and
eight injured Young Arnold left
this city last spring to go into au-
tomobile races as mechanician for
the Stutz racing car which was one
of the eleven cars which piled up
on the racing track at Kalamazoo.
A dispatch gives the following ac-
count of the accident:
The overturning of the Sunbeam
"12," driven by Peacock, as 1t
rounded the first turn of the sec
ond mile caused the accident. Pea
cocks car struck the fence, swery-
ing lengthwise across the track and
tipped over on its side. Track Off
cials made desperate attempt to
flag the thirteen cars which were
laundering up from behind, but
without success.
Burt's Stutz was the first to
strike the wrecked Sunbeam. Then
nine other cars piled, one after
another, in the smoking death heap.
Four of the cars were far enough
in the rear to avoid smashing into
the wreckage.
Track officials started for the mass
of wreckage, and at the same time
the crowds made a rush from the
grandstand. When the first reached
the scene, Arnold's headless body
was found beneath the battered
Stutz. 1t was not until the wreck
age had almost been completely
cleared away that his head was
found.
Today's accident is the worst that
has occurred at Recreation Park
since 1911, when Lee Oldfield's rae
ing car plowed through the fence
and killed eight persons.

Works.

Hark. Listen to the tale that
comes upon the soft zephers from the
direction of Storm Lake. For, yea
verify, last Saturday is said to have
been indeed very stormy time at
Storm Lake. Would you believe it,
one hundred and fifty auto drivers
were arrested for the violation of
traffic regulations and laws concern
ing the proper way to drive an auto
were speeding, improper parking and
running at night without rear
lights. The city provided addition
al police force for the day and a
general round up was enjoyed--by
the police. The lesson was suffi-
cient. Conditions there will
change.
Chief of Police Nickerson says
that there will be some people in
the vicinity of town called Web
ster City who will get waking up
some of these days. He says that
the practice of telling them to cease
their violations of the traffic laws
will soon cease, and that in the place
of this custom the offenders will be
pinched and made to pay fine.
Fine, Here's hoping YOU do it,
chief.

NORTHERN
LIGHTS PLAINLY seen
Hundreds of People Watch Reflec.
ton in StaryLit Sky.-Seen
for Miles.

Hundreds of people in this city as
we'll as other Iowa towns watched
one of the most magnificent dis
plays of r~rthern lights Saturday
night ever viewed this far south.
No colors, such as the rainbow col
ors which are so frequently seen in
the north, were visible from this
point, but the strong white lights
stretching over the northern hori-
zon rose and f. :, as the rays from a
search light, to the zenith OF the

Passengers on the night trains
from the northern part of the state

display, which is seldom SO bright
and clear from this part Of the state
as it was Saturday evening.

A FORTY ACRE FIELD
YIELDS S35 PER ACRE
Nels Hendrickson Gets 1,400 Bush
els of Barley and Sells it at
81 Per Bushel.

$500 per acre is not too much for
some Iowa land when devoted to GER
tain kinds of crops. In fact interest
can be realized from $500 or $400
values some years. Nels Hendrick-
son has fine farm in Hamilton
township and knows how to farm,
too. This year he had forty acres
in barley and produced 1,400 bushels
of the grain. He sold this barley
in Jewell last week at 81 per bush
ell, thus realizing $35 per acre from
his crop. Who in Hamilton county
can show better returns from a forty
acre field?

When it comes to good shooting,
Hamilton county has been in the
limelight for years, Will S. HoOn of

brought the most honors to the coun-
