TWO OF SCHOOLS
HELD INADEQUATE
Patrons of Horace Mann and Audubon
Appeal TO Rock Island Board of Ed.
ucatiOn for Relief.
DISTRICTS GROWING RAPIDLY
Needs of Latter Have Increased One
Hundred Per Cent Since Erection
of Building In 1912.

At the monthly meeting of the Rock
Island board of education last night
the board was visited by two delega-
lions. one from the district around
Horace Mann school and the other from
| the Audubon district, each Of them
asking for the authorization of large
and modern buildings on their school
sites. The Audubon delegation de-
sired to supplant the old building and
the Mann forces to use the new edi-
flee to supplement the one now in use.
The discussion of this matter formed
the chief item of interest at the meet
ing and the final decision of the board
was to visit the districts in question
and learn their needs first hand.
| The Horace Mann delegation explain
| ed the needs Of its district as requir-
ing wood shop. cook shop and gym
nasium, together with four or five new
school rooms. This, it Is estimated,
would require about 100000, an ex-
penditure which the board could make
only by issuing bonds.
The Audubon needs were given as
requiring an entirely new structure
to supplant the building now being
used. The great development of the
| district around this school was point
ed out by the delegation and it was
/ shown how the needs of the school had
/ increased 100 per cent since its erec-
/ ton four years ago.. At that time on
| ly two rooms in the school we're in
use and these contained less than fifty
pupils. Now all four rooms are in use
and are crowded to capacity.
| Neither of the delegations specified
as special needs new equipment for
manual training or domestic depart
ments.
The contract for wiring Eugene
Field school for $4,000, for wiring
Irving for $24575, and for wiring Kem-
BILE for $146.40 was let to the Acme
Electric company Of this city.
Operation of Franklin.
| The one other topic OF discussion at
the board meeting was concerning the
| plan to be followed in the operation Of
the new Franklin school The two
schemes discussed were those of the
departmental and of the Junior high
school plans The former plan would
make the seventh and eighth grades
alone operate according to the depart
mental system, while the latter would
increase the numeer Of grades to nine
and have the last three operate accord
ing to this system. The discussion was
informal and the board took no action
upon the matter, but it is thought that
the former plan will be adopted be-
cause the latter method would mean
sending all the freshmen to this school
and this would undoubtedly crowd it.

BABY is A PRIZE WINNER

One hundred and five Tulsa county
Oklamoha babies who passed through
the ordeal of better babies contest
at the recent fair, who suffered the
shame of passing entirely nude, from
one doctor to another while grinning
crowds gazed wide-eyed, who were
thumped, bumped, squeezed, shaken,
prodded and abused in sundry and
varied other manners, and who en-
erged entirely disilluslioned and dis
gusted at the world in general, know
their fates.
OF the 105 only IL could be select
ed The awards were made by the
judges after they had examined the
infants records just as they would
those of so many cattle or horses
They were just units and not laugh
ing, gurgling adoloscents. The gold
en- hair of Marie didn't count for one
point. The dimples in Roberts cheek
was entirely ignored. All that count
ed was the size of the "tummy," the
width of the forehead, the shade of
the Inning throat or other physical
proportions just as Insignificant to
the average mother and father.
Amouug the prize winners was
Anna May Hunter, Is months, first

daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. C. r. Hunt

a splendid little daughter. But what
else could be expected from such
splendid parents.

SUPERVISORS HAVE POWER
TO HARD SURFACE ROADS

In As counties of Iowa, bonds have
been issued and several more counties
bond issues are planned. According
to Mr.. Dodd of the State Highway
Commission, the boards of superyl
sors of Emmett, Clay, Dickinson,
Hardin, Calhoun, Buna Vista, Sac and
we believe, Marshall counties have de-
cided to permanently grade and gray
ell their entire county road system
paying for the same, so far as posi-
BILE, from available funds, and issuing
bonds for the balance Under what
law are these boards proceeding Is
a vote of the people necessary or is
the power to bond lodged simply
and solely in the board of superyi-
sors.
Under provisions of Section 403,
Code of Iowa, boards of Supervisors
may issue bonds to pay outstanding
indebtedness of the county whenever
these debts exceed five thousand dol-
lars, and that section of the law opens
wide the way to road bonding. The
boards may simply grade and gravel
the roads as most people build houses
They may let the bills for the work
and material run on and accumulate
until the work is finished, and as soon
as these bills exceed five thousand
dollars, the board takes them up by
issuing county road bonds, just as
many man settles his account by
note at the lumber yard after his
house has been built. No vote of the
people is required to authorize the
board to hard surface the roads or to
issue the bonds. AS the law now
stands, the entire power and author
ity with reference to this matter is
directly lodged with the board of
and not with the tax
payers. There is absolutely no doubt
