Roach is a School Man.

Cornelius Roach, now candidate for
governor, when boy attended a one
room rural school two miles from
home, until he had finished the eighth
grade. He rode horseback, morning
and evening, seven miles from his
fathers farm to the county seat to
procure his high school training. On
graduating therefrom, he taught a
country school for two years, and
a village school for two years, and
then was principal for four years of
the high school from which he gradu-
ated.
He served for several years as mem
Der of the Board of Education at
Carthage. While member, largely
through his Influence and the aggres-
siveness of the Carthage Daily Demo
crat, which he owned and edited, a
bond issue of S105, 100000 for the con.
struction of a modern high school was
voted in town of less than ten thou
sand people. Out-of this high school
two of his Oldest children graduated,
one never having been absent or
tardy from the day she entered the
primary till she graduated from the
high school.
Shortly after his election as Secre-
tary of State, he was made chairman
of a Citizens Committee in Jefferson
City to conduct a campaign for the
issuing of bonds with which to erect a
$40, 100000 high school,, that amount
being the maximum of the school
districts bond Issuing power. A
proposition for bonds of half this
amount had twice been defeated, but
under the aggressive and energetic
leadership for better schools the S75,-
10000 proposition carried to success
by more than five to one vote. Out
of this high school two of his children
have graduated, two are taking the
high school course, one will graduate
next year and another will enter as a
freshman.
His two oldest children have finished
courses at the State University in
Columbia, third is now junior
there, and next year another will en-
ter the University.
II there is man in Missouri any
more thoroughly identified with the
public schools than Secretary Of State
Cornelius Roach, or who has done any
more for them than he, an account OF
his efforts would make interesting
reading.
One of Missouri's most prominent
educators, recognized authority on
educational matters and problems,
writes as follows:
"My experience with you (Mr
Roach) In the county superintendents
meetings and elsewhere has led me to
see that you have better hold upon
the problems Of the schools of.Missouri
than has any otherpublic man whom

cred with asbestos paper to protect
the pipes and to save heat. A damp
er in every pipe and also in the smoke
flue will aid materially in controlling
and distributing heat. Chimney fiues
should be 10 by 10 inches or larger.
Hot Water.
A hot-water system is only slight
elaboration of the principle. Enlarge
the base to inclose the fire, and re-
duce the size of the tube or pipe be-
tween the fire and the rooms to be
heated, and make that part of the
circuit in the rooms large, to give
enough radiating surface. The main
body, cast in sections for convenience
in handling, is often made quite ir-
regular. in order to expose more sur
face to the fire. Water is conducted
through large pipe, from which
smaller pipes connect with one end
of the radiator in each room. The
other end of the radiator is con-
nected to n large return pipe, which
enters the heater ut the crate level.
This allows for more rapid circula-
ton than If n single pipe were used
for each radiator.
Allowance must be made for the
expansion of the water. This Is done
by placing an open tank in the attic.
or in Second-tloor room above the
top of the highest radiator, and con-
Meeting with the system at some con-
venient point. The system may be
filled through this tank If there is no
pressure system at hand.
This is called the open-tank hot
water system. If the tank were
capped tight, and little or no water
reached the tank, there would be
,, quantity of air confined which would
be compressed, because the water in
the heater, pipes and radiators ex-
pands when heated. This Is the
closed tank or semisteam system.
ture of the water before the boiling
point Is reached. The higher tenn
perature will allow of smaller pipes
and smaller radiators, and the prac-
tice is to install n smaller heater
also. The cost of installation will
consequently be less.
Objections to this system are: The
need of safety devices, which may
fail, and harder firing. which requires
more fuel.
vapor or Vacuum System.
The vapOr or vacuum system Is a
comparatively recent development. 1t
is the opposite in principle of the
closed-tank hot-water system as the
air is exhausted from the pipes and
radiators and wafer stands in the

stroy the vacuum and it will become
a steam system pure and simple.
Choosing Fuel.
For hard coal deep firebox gives
best results. Hard coal burns slowly
and requires less air than soft coal
or wood. and the deep fire serves as
check on the air. Soft coal and
wood burn best in thin layer over a
larger surface, and of course will re-
quire more frequent firing. All-round
steam and hot-water boilers are made
for hard coal. A sectional boiler may
be heightened by adding sections and
the size of the firebOx be thereby in
creased.
In round hot-water boilers, two
styles are offered; one with flat
top tirebox, and one with water arms.
The one with the fiat top is much
more easily cleaned than the one hay
ing water arms, and the heating coil
is much more easily installed. The
latter style is intended to give more
heating surface In the firebox, but
this feature is more than offset by
the advantages mentioned.
In placing any of these heaters the
clean-out doors should not be backed
up against a chimney or partition.
Radiators.
The radiators are of cast or sheet
iron, made up in sections, which may
be placed together to give the re-
quired amount of radiating surface.
The standard size Is 3S inches high,
three-column, and contains 8 square
feet of radiation per section. four
column 3S-inch radiator contains s
square feet of ratkating surface. They
sell for IS to 20 cents a square foot.
Each radiator has valve at one end
to cut off the water. In this valve is
pinhole, through which circulation
will continue and thus prevent freez-
ing when the radiation is cut Off. AT
the top of each radiator, at one end,
Is an air valve. which must be opened

ventilation scheme in mild or still

Such an escape will add from $12

(3) a thin lip. A smoking fireplace
can usually be remedied by adding

Firing.
Economical stoking is an art. Hard
coal is popular because the average
person does not care to fire every
half hour. However, little admix-
ture of brains with the coal will pay,
even with hard coal. In general, add
as small an amount of coal as possible
at each firing, and fire often. Do not
entirely cover the bed of live Goals,
but leave small hole. where sufficient
