MANY INSPECT PLANS FOR
PROPOSED NEW HIGH SCHOOL

Much interest is being taken in
the proposed plans for the new high
school. judging from the crowds
that gather about the Whitehead
window, where views Of the build
ing are on exhibition. These plans,
from zone of the best architects in
Kansas City, are of course tenta-
tive, and may be changed wholly or
in part If the bonds carry They
were drawn simply to give the peo-
pie an idea of what could be done
with the amount of money called
for. 1t is amusing to hear the
comments of supposedly intelligent
persons. One man after a single
glance remarked, well that archi-
tect simply came up here and copied
the plan of the present high school
and didn't give any ventilation at
that" All those conyersant with
the present trend of school archi
lecture know that the day of the
cupola and tower have passed and
that most of the modern schools
follow the same general exterior
lines. A careful observer of the
interior plans can easily find the
ducts prepared for the installation
of one of the latest and best venti-
lating systems. Snap judgments car
ry little weight Therefore do your
own thinking.

Mrs. Lena Schmutz, 200 s. Spruce

work that obliged me to be on my
feet nearly all the time and my
back and kidneys gave out. My
back ached and it was hard for me
to do my work. When I stopped, l
got awfully dizzy and little specks
seemed to float before my eyes. The
first box OF Doan's Kidney Pills

back felt easier, 50 that 1 was able

MAKE GOOD
HAUL AT BARBECUE

In the crowd at the barbecue yes
terday several people were relieved
of their pocketbooks and the con
tents thereof by pickpockets. Carl
Miller of Dayton was robbed of 800.
Thinking he had dropped 1t on the
ground he searched for it but was
only able to find someone's else,
containing SLIPS. Several others
lost sums ranging from five to
twenty dollars.

DO YOU SUFFER
FROM BACKACHE ?

When your kidneys are weak and
torpid they do not properly perform
their functions; your back aches
and you do not feel like doing much
of anything. You are likely to be
respondent and to borrow trouble,
just as if you hadn't enough al
ready. Don't be a victim any longer.
The old reliable medicine, Hood s
Sarsaparilla, gives strength and
tone to the kidneys and builds up
the whole system. Get it today.

have such building as is contem-
plated would make 1t possible for
us to add to our high school course
the first two years of the college
curriculum. Thus we could keep our
children at home for two years
longer and many a boy and girl
would by this means secure q col
lege education could the first two
years be had in their own town.
Why not Abilene Get the example and
show our city to be a leader in all
twentieth century advancement.
c. l.. Brown favor the build
ing of new high school because l
consider it the best investment we
can make. The better our facilities
are for fitting our boys and girls
to make their own way in the world
the more prosperous and happy will
our community be. My observation
has been that we are far behind
most of the cities of similar size in
the matter of school buildings and
grounds. A new high school will
mean more people in Abilene for
the reason that if we make our high
school equal to the best, many fam
lilies will move here to educate their
children We cannot afford to long
er delay this matter.

THE AMERICAN JEWISH WORLD

Jews were coming; that they had
nothing to eat; that babies in arms
were starving; that many were NOR
tally sick. SO the Jewish popula-
ton from the villages went out to
meet them with pals Of milk, warm
food and bread. The whole Jewish
population responded to our unheard
of misfortunes in the most brother
" way. But in vain. AS soon as
the cars arrived at the stations the
soldiers and gendarmes surrounded
them and permitted no one to APP
proach. Whoever ventured to draw
near with bread for the hungry ex-
lies was beaten with the knout The
soldiers and the wild mob pointed
at the famished Jews, who looked
out upon the bright world from their
dismal freight cars and cried:
See! Those are our spies and
traitors. They ought to be killed,
hanged, and you want to give them
food
The trains went on their way and
at each station these scenes were re-
peated. This went on until the Jew
ish communities sent kilograms to
the authorities and succeeded in get
ting their permission to give food to
the Jews imprisoned in the cars.
Little by little they threw out the
human stock from the freight cars
without warning at any station.
Young or old, five or six hundred
were seized haphazard and left. A
train with Kovno Jews passes

perishing because no reinforcements
were brought to it in time, no sol
dierS and no ammunition. How
ever, the Chief of the General Staff,
Yanushkevitch, had his own plans,
for several hundred cars were press
ed into service to carry the Jews out
of the northwest region. Xxx
The freight cars were packed with
Jews as if with ordinary freight. AS
much human stock was thrown in
as possible, no matter what the sort.
The sick and the sound, people with
contagious diseases and lunatics,
were crowded in with children, with
women and with old men.
From Kovno, for example, they
sent out $1,000 Jews with such thor
ough methods that they cleared out
all the Jewish hospitals, the homes
for the aged-the wasted, the feeble,
the blind, the deaf, the crippled off
their beds-all were driven into the
freight cars and locked in.
From Kovno even all the Jewish
military doctors were sent out to be
stationed at other posts. All the
Jewish wounded soldiers who had
come for a time to their families
were SEIZED All the Jews but four
were thrown out Of Kovno
Three typhoid sufferers, who were
on the point Of death, and one luna
tic, who was dangerously violent.
That is what was left Of the old
Jewish city of Kovno!
At the station pitiful and heart
rending scenes were enacted which
are beyond the range of human i'm
agination. The soldiers drove the
unfortunate into the cars, locked
them in, and sent the cars off. Men
lost their wives, fathers their chill
dren, mothers their families.
Where they were being taken the
exiles were not told. Who knew?
Perhaps to Siberia, perhaps on the
Nolga, perhaps near, perhaps far
they were on their way.
In the meantime the Jews in the
villages along the railroad line, in
the province of wilma learned that
