PROF. JONES EXAMINES
PREHISTORIC MONSTERS

While on a business trip through the
Cinta basin in eastern Utah last week.
Professor c. E. Jones, of the university
department OF mineralogy, visited the
dinasaur quarry near Jensen. In this
quarry were recently discovered the
skeletons Of five of the enor nous pre-.
historic lizards which Prof. Jones be.
lieves. lived in the marshes and rivers
OF the region about the time OF Christ.
The remains were found in place, i'm.
bedded in sandstone. 1t Is supposed
that as they died they sunk into the
mud at an eddy in the river. The
skeletons, which average from 60 to 90
feet, which represents a weight of 20
or 30 tons, have been shipped to the
Carnegie museum at Pittsburg. One
OF the most striking characteristics IS
the smallness OF the brain. It being
in most cases not larger than ones
two fists.
Prof Jones has left for Chicago
where he will read a paper on the his.
tory of Lake Lahonatan at the annual
meeting OF the American Society for
the Advancement of Science. The
meeting will be attended by the most
eminent scientists OF the country. and
VIII probably number over 1900. Prof.
Jones will receive the degree OF doctor
while In Chicago. His geologic history
OF Lake Iahontan has been partially
reprinted in Science, and is considered
to be a scientific contribution of un.
usual value

Other Speakers on Program.

c. H. Ackeyt reminisced of days OF
thirty years ago. when he first came
to Marshalltown. and urged boosting
for railroads, which need help. and
which are always willing to keep the
interest of a town at heart. Mr.. Ackert
said that communities would progress
just as fast as railroads progressed and
that the high price of Iowa land may
be due to the railroads.
Secretary Johnson reviewed brief
~ the club activities during
the past year. and ]. T. Bash
am, chairman of the membership
|committee, gave brief instructions to
the various teams on the work to be
done in the campaign today. r. W..
McCreery added a few words on the
value of cooperation, and urged the
advisability of letting one know ones
appreciation of efforts, no matter how
small.
President Wilbur closed the meeting
by asking every one to get out and
help in the membership campaign
which opened this morning, and which
promises to be one of the most sue
cessfui in the clubs history.
Ralph Bolton, Of Des Moines, sched-
uled for an address,, was unable to
come at the last minute, telephoning
his regrets to Secretary johnson.
Evening times-Republican. [volume] (Marshalltown, Iowa) 1890-1923, 1916-11-28

To the older business men of the
city especially was the appearance of
Charles H. Ackert for the Marshall |
town Club membership campaign din
ner Monday night the signal for an
old-time reunion.
Mr.. Ackert said Monday night that
he had spent the happiest years of his |
life in Marshalltown: he still loves |
Marshalltown. Touchingly he referred |
to lot he owns in Riverside, where |
he expects to come when Gabriel
blows his horn.
President Wilbur voiced the senti- |
ment of Mr.. Ackert's many friends |,
when he said that he hoped Gabriel
would defer many years his trumpet |
call for the former Marshalltown man,
who. in years gone by, did much for |
Marshalltown. He might have added |
the wish that Mr.. Ackcrt would live |
to live to be older than his father. |
who is now 9S. and took his first aero
plane ride at 90.
Mr.. Ackert was here. as general |
manager of the old Iowa Central. when |
that road was in its stages of pioneer |
development. Probably no other gen
eraI manager of the road was ever
more popular in this city. Mr.. Ackcrt |
was a part Of his railroad. and a part |
of the communicative always for |
those things which went to build Mar |
Shalltown that was to be further devel-.l
oped after he had been called to even
bigger things in the railroad world.
Mr.. Ackert was under 80 when he |
came to Marshalltown in 1883 to as
sumo the general managership of the |
Central. Twenty-Five years ago now
he was figuring in the many activities |
of Marshalltown. He left here in |
1893 to become general mana ger of the |
Elgin, Joliet < Eastern and was with |
the property in that capacity for six |
years He then became president of |
the road. together with <the Chicago, |
Lake Shore & Eastern. serving until
1901. In the latter year he rose still
higher becoming general manager of
the Mobile & Ohio which he served
until 1905. His next big work was as
fourth vice president of the Southern |
railway. one of the biggest railroad |
systems of the country. being in charge |
OF operation. He served until 1910. |
when, in January of that year. he be-
came vice president Of the Hawley |
lines. being in charge of operation and |
maintenance The properties included |
the Minneapolis & ST. Itouis. Iowa Cen
trail. Chicago 6, Alton. and Toledo, St.
Louis & Western. In October of that
year Mr.. Ackert was compelled to give
up his work. owing to impaired health. |
and since then has been living in re-
tirement at Lake Forest. Ill.
Mrs. Ackert accompanied her hus
band to the city, to visit her sisters.

Milford chronicle., 1916-06-23

THE call of President Wilson for part
of the National Guard of all the States
in the Union, was made necessary by
the attitude of the de facto government
of Mexico, of which General Carranza is
the recognized chief In the last stages
of of his administration Carranza has
found the irresolute attitude of the Uni
ted States government the opportunity
for him to create a situation whereby he
can bolster up his declining popularity
with the Mexican people, and at the
same time escape the results of trouble
from the United States. This he was
justified in assuming, as for four years
the Mexican situation has been COM
plete muddle from the standpoint of
common sense or military wisdom. When
the American army enters Mexico, it
will remain there for the next FIVE years,
or until some kind OF stable government
is established. The Strengthening out of
the Mexican question is another of the
jobs the people of the United States |
have to shoulder, and it must be well |
done and well finished before any form
of peace will be enjoyed by that country.

EDUCATION TO The PUBLIC
Nv. More Frequent And More Special
School Supervision.

One supervisory school official tC
direct and supervise all the schools
and teachers of a county is just about
as effective for good management as
it would be to have a farm managed
by a supervisor who visits it once a
year. No farm owner would call a
visit a year by the manager satisfact-
ory. Yet that is what most of our
public schools get in the way of over
sight, planning and direction from
the county superintendent. A single
visit in the term may enable the sup
erintendent to see weak points in a
teachers work, and he may even sug-
gest better ways to do the work. In
less he can visit the same school at
least once more each year, he cannot
tell whether or not his suggestions
and directions have been carried out.
Therefore when he can visit school
but once, and when the teacher knows
that after the first visit she will not
see him again that year, the condi-
tons are present for the continuance
of practices and proceedings begun
before the superintendent came, es-
pecially if his recommendations entail
work, study and more preparation.
