Death and Life

Where dwell the absent, the silent
dead
Where roam their spirits now so
free?
Having past the misty shadows,
Living ever more to be.
Entered through the gates of day,
On some distant, golden shore;
Or near to minister, and guard,
The mystery we can not know
Only He, who calls them knows,
Our eyes deep-veiled, we may
not know,
But as the earth's so filled with
beauty
Surely Heavenly is far more so.
Just as the living flowers fade
The loved and passing scenes OF
time
Shall also surely pass away
Into a new eterL al cline.

The first two members of the board
mentioned above, met in the morning
and after waiting until $3.50 for the
president to come, in which case, the
secretary, by Colorado School Law,
conducts the meeting, action was tax.
en-. The day following, another meet
ing Of the board was called. this time
by the president, at which time the
president sanctioned the action which
had been taken on the day preceding.
At this meeting a third teacher was
unanimously elected by all three mem
bers Of the board and the telegram was
sent.
Might it not be we'll here to ask the
editress to state upon what authority
she bases her statements that meetings
have been unofficially called by two
members (only) of the board without
the notification of the third member,
simply to "spite" that third member.
In passing 1t might be asked what ac-
ton some of the petitioners expected
could be done by asking meeting Of
the school board on Friday morning
when only two Of the school board were
notified by them.
The school board, with the exception
Of the secretary consists Of unsalaried
members, yet at the same time it con-
sists of men who are anxious to serve
the school district in the best manner
1t does not however consist Of men
who are desirous to run affairs Of the
district in way which 1t knows would
meet with the disapproval Of the peo-
pie. That any member Of the board
The Keota news., 1916-01-14

"has taken course he had every rea-
son to know would meet with disap-
proval" is an untruth and is fabrica-
tion which should be publicly corrected.
The school board wishes to serve the
people and 1t believes that it has met
with the approval of all thoughtful and
unselfishly minded people of the COM
munity.
Each one of the board has we're safe
in saying lost at least month from
their own work since the last school
election, in the securing Of bonds, su-
perintending the erection and furnish
ing Of our new building IA source Of
pride to every sound thinking citizen),
without compensation and without even
any appreciation from some Of our good
citizens. The board feels that they
should be given vote Of thanks for
what they have done, rather than this
beautiful boquet which has been hand
ed to them by the editress, and also
that an apology 10 due them from the
editress as well a. from some members
of the community.
In closing we wish to state that the
last-elected member of the school board
has only two more years to serve and
between now and then, there will be
three offices on the school board to be
filed by any Of these people who wish
to run the school affairs, providing Of
course, that majority of the people so
desires.

Public Statement

Public Statement
"It is With sincere regret" says the
Keota News" that have watched q
situation develop that must have an un-
pleasant effect upon the Keots school
nupils and teachers. It i with sin
cere regret that the school board has
also watched the situation develop,
which has been augmented and fed by q
set of three editorials appearing in the
last issue of the Keota News. That
the editress was perfectly free in stat
ing her mind would be putting it rather
feebly, but the thing that we regret
mostly in the situation IL that she did
not feel herself bound or limited by
facts. As the president, unfortunately,
was not present at the first Of this SER
les of meetings recently called in ques-
ton. and it seems had already cleared
himself in the eyes Of the editress, she
seems to cast all blame on the other
two members Of the board. To clear
up few Of these "facts" and to give
the people of Keota and vicinity, defin'
ite and truthful knowledge in regard to
our recent action, we, the secretary and
treasurer, wish to make public few
statements.
One statement which should certainly
be corrected is in regard to the hpplica-
ton of the writer Of the editorial, fol
the school. The statement in connec-
ton with the action Of the treasurer ia
regard to her application. and in regard
to the fact that he wished to consult
the patrons first, reads, $50 far ~ ]
have learned, he consulted only one,
and he one who had no children In the
higher grades" Would it not have
been far better II the editress had In
vestigated farther and had not relied on
her own limited knowledge, in regard
to the treasurer's affairs. The treasur.
er did consult with more than one, in
fact number Of patrons, and it wa
due to. the response and the replies re.
ceved to his inquiries that his action In
the election. followed.
In regard to the petitions circulated
it might be noted here that . large
number Of the signers Of the petition
lave come to members Of the board
with their apologies and stated that the
entire thing had been misrepresented to
them and that what they understood
they were signing for, was simply re-
quest for the board to reconaider and
hire third teacher rather than 60 or
with the two teachers as the town
school has been going for the first part
of the year.
The editress states that "plenty Of
light is pretty good disinfectant" but
We would like to ssk how the blind, II

WASHINGTON, Nov. 81. = A
general railroad strike Jan. 1 may
not follow as the result of the sit
uation growing out of the Adam
son law dispute.
This Interpretation was placed
today on remarks of Chief Stone
of the Brotherhood of Locomotive
Engineers that the question of
such a strike will be answered
later"
The element of doubt regarding
his remarks arises from the fact
that last week in New York
brotherhood chiefs flatfootedly
said there would be strike If
they did not get real eight-hour
day.
Now. 1t is believed, the brother
hoods will be content to await a
test of constitutionality of the
Adamson eight-hour measure.
Today the brotherhood chiefs
are In Baltimore to speak before
the American Federation of Labor
eonvention--a move that portends
cooperation between them and
the railway department of the fed
Grafton to force an eight-hour day
in all branches of railroad service.

SURE WAY TO GET
RID OF DANDRUFF

There is one sure way that
never fails to remove dandruff
completely, and that is to dis
solve 1t. This destroys 1t en-
tirely. To do this, just get about
four ounces of plain, ordinary
liquid arvon; apply 1t at night
when retiring; use enough to
moisten the scalp and rub it in
gently with the finger tips.
BY morning, most If not all, of
your dandruff will be gone. and
three or four more applications
will completely dissolve and en-
tirely destroy every single sign
and trace of it, no matter how
much dandruff you may have.
You will find, too, that all itch
ing and digging of the scalp will
stop instantly. and your hair will
be fluffy, lustrous, glossy, silky
and soft, and look and feel a hun
dred times better.
You can get liquid arvon at any
drug store. 1t IL inexpensive. and
four ounces Is all you will need.
This simple remedy has never
been known to fail. adv.
