The Road to He'll

An old document issued by the
school board Of Lancaster, Ohio, in
1928, and brought to light by being
recently published in Railway Engin-
eering,' brings a broad smile to our
faces as we read It; but how many OF
us will make application to our own
time? Here It is: you are welcome
to use the schoolhouse to debate all
proper questions in, but such things
as railroads and telegraphs are i'm
possibilities and rank infidelities.
There is nothing in the word Of God
about them. If God had designed that
his intelligent creatures should travel
at the frightful speed of fifteen miles
per hour. by steam, he would have
clearly foretold through his holy pro-
phets. II is device Of Satan 10 lead

KNOLL SCHOOLHOUSE
BURNS TO GROUND

The Knoll school house in District II
Just across the river from Roubideau,
was burned to the ground on Monday
evening, January 81, shortly after
school had closed for that day and the
teacher, Miss Dorothy Bennett, and
her pupils were on their way home.
Miss Bennett happened to look back
toward the school building from a dis
tance, and saw great flames issue from
the roof. She reported the matter to
persons residing in the vicinity, but
it was too late to do anything toward
saving the property. The building,
library and all other equipment were
reduced to ashes. A defective flue is
given as the cause.
The building was insured for $1,000
and this amount was paid over to the
board Of directors yesterday.

A little baby girl was born to Mr.
and Mrs. Steele Burgin in this city
last Saturday and death came some
twenty or thirty hours later. The
young mother was also in a precar-
ious condition and grave fears were
entertained for her recovery. Several
local physicians have remained at her
bedside most of the time since the
birth of the child, and according to
reports, they now feel that she is out
of danger. Mrs. Rodman, mother of
Mrs. Steele Burgin. and her sister,
Hazel, came in from their home in
Denver Monday to attend the funeral
of the babe which occurred at 10
o'clock Tuesday morning, and to be
with the PROSTATE woman. Since the
above was put in type and just as Inde-
pendent goes to press Thursday even
ing, it is reported that the patient has
taken a change for the worse.

DON'T ALLOW HEN
TO EAT OWN EGGS

No flock of chickens will prove prof
liable il they are consumers of their
own products. Egg eating is a vice
which has ruined great many fIocks
OF laying hens. See that your hens
have access to plenty of grit and lime
and are given plenty of protein con
tent feeds. Bran, middlings. meat,
milk, alfalfa leaves, vegetables and
sprouted grains are all valuable in sup
plying the need Of protein and succu-
lent feeds.
One broken or soft-shelled egg Will
often start an entire flock in the habit
OF eating eggs. Furnish plenty OF at
tractive nests to avoid crowding. II
is best to have nests secluded and
darkened and rather high up.
Some such device as filling an egg
shell with ground mustard paste or
red pepper will often break up the
habit. but unless they are exception.

WISE AND OTHERWISE

Whiskey straight makes crooked
paths.
When you think a girls peach. you
don't need sugar and cream to smack
your lips over her.
What would be the basest crime in
time of peace is the highest exempli-
fication Of patriotism in time OF war.
You, young man. Just fresh from
college. don't make fun Of your old
dads lack Of learning. Think of the
good judgment he used in picking out
a mother for you.

In the death of Judge Charles A.
