IN the spring OI 1909, IOuT IIdme
school houses were built in Dalton
township, this one was built on the
east side of Nettle Creek, one mile
south and one mile east Of the coun-
ty's and townships north and west
lines.
1t was placed in an acre plot on
the east side of the road facing the
road with a well about twenty feet
southwest of the school house, a
wooden walk leading from the
house to the fence. At the north
edge of the walk was the WOOD
house. The wood house was near
the fence so the would could be
thrown in from the road
The school house Is about thirty
feet long, twenty feet wide and
twelve feet to the roof. 1t is
weather boarded with four-inch
boards except the bottom, top and
corners have one foot boards like
the old fashioned houses. 1t had
six windows and one door, three
windows are on the north and three
on the south, the door Is In the
west end.
AT the west end of the roof was
the belfry tower The tower was a
square with roof and an iron bell,
this bell has called many children
to their daily lessons, some to who
have long been dead and some who
are still living.
The house had one room with
five rows of desks facing the east,
they were made Of wood and iron,
some of them were small for the
little and some were large for the
big children. Four rows we're long
er than the one with the stove. The
stove was In the middle Of the
room, it was a box stove to give
heat and could be used to cook on.
The blackboard is on the east
wall. 1t was about four feet wide
divided into four parts.
There was a box with maps OF
all the continents, one Of the world
and one Of the United tSates.
The organ was in the northwest
corner OF the room.
The chimney Is In the center OF
the north wall, the stove pipe came
from the stove to thee Kinney.
The book case in the northwest
for the library books. It had four
shelves, a door.
A bench next to the book case for
the lunch boxes.
The door Is In the middle OF the
west end. II was about three feet
by eight feet,
Hooks were put on the rest OF
the space for the children's wraps.
The teachers desk was at the
east end. 1t had flat top with a
drawer under 1t for the teachers
necessary articles, 1t also had a
space on top for their books.
The walks had a border about
two foot high.
The first teacher was Marvin
Edgerton. Some OF the later teach
sers were William Baldwin, Daisy
LEVEL, Elizabeth Brown and Zela
Colvin. Miss Colvin was the last
teacher.
When Mr.. Edgerton taught school
he had to rise early to sweep the
school room, to write line in the
children's copy books for them to
copy some time during the day and
to see II their pens were in good
order.
After doing all this he would
call the school to order, he gave

tition of the trouble of 1916 in Ohio
in the supply of automobile tags for
1917. Then, it will be remembered.
there were hundreds of arrests of au-
tomobilists who could not secure tags,
and unanimous complaint that the
tags furnished were below standard
and not up to specifications. Later
developed the scandal and the refusal
of the auditor Of state to pay the bill
in the contract between Secretary OF
State Hildebrant and State Senator C.
w. Wickline, by which there was to
be an unearned profit of $4,000. In
the supreme court hearing the facts
came out, that there had been no COM
petitive bids, that the contractor was
not manufacturer. and that he had
sublet the contract for a cheaper tag
at great profit. The supreme court
upheld the watchful auditor. The last
result was that the Republicans of
his district denied Mr.. Wickline re-
nomination for the senate.
After much delay and the secret
opening Of bids, this year the contract
was awarded to the Abbott Stamping
Company of Detroit. Registrar Walk
er said this concern could make the
cheapest tags because they were To-
catd in the heart Of the automobile in
dustry. The steel that comes as by
products Of tenders and the like, is
not of the quality demanded In the
Ohio specifications, commercially
known as "Pickled Annealed and Cold
Rolled Tagger's Iron, Showcard
Quality" This means that again the
specifications will be disregarded in
all likelihood. The alternative would
be that the company was deliberately
seeking business at a considerable
loss 1t will be the part Of wisdom
for Ohio to see TO it' that there is a
paymaster on the job in Ohio who
will not see anything put over on the
state, as was attempted in the auto
tag deal this year.
II develops on investigation that
the Abbott Stamping Company DOES
NOT MAKE TAGS, but that they sub
let the contract TO another concern.
They had one contract OF this nature
the past year, and on its completion
stated that the company would be-
come inactive, The contracting com
pany is small concern with only
$4,000 capitalization.

There is no doubt that the people
generally understand the benefit to
be derived from President Wilson s
strong appeal for the passage Of the
child labor bill. Read what the San
dusky Register, Republican, has TO
say about it:
"Many good men and women who
are deeply moved by any such scourge
of childhood as an infantile paraly-
sis epidemic never give thought to
child labor, and yet IL is likely that
ahe ravages of the latter evil. year in
and year out, are vastly greater than
those OF infantile paralysis at its
worst. The effects are slower and
less perceptible, but none the less
sure. The whole country has cause
for satisfaction in the prospect of the
passage of the child labor bill now
pending In the United States senate
IL has passed the house by a good ma
Jority in a non-partisan vote, and the
combined pressure OF the president
and the Republican senate leaders
should suffice to enact II before the
close OF the present session. The
measure prohibits the employment OF
children under fourteen. limits to s
hours a day the employment of chill
dren from "A 10 49, and forbids night
work for children. The standard Is
none too high, but II Is something tC

standard in this matter Much prog
ress has been made in state legis1
tion, but there has always been the
objection that it was unfair to enac
such repressive laws in one STATE
while a state with competing indus
tries persisted IN using cheap chill.

should be placed ahead OF merely eco
