FortnishtIy Matinee Club.

The Fortnightlv Matinee Club
held an open meeting 1t the
High School building st $50
Wednesday. February 9TH.
The public was invited. Guests
were greeted and most cordially
welcomed BY members Of the
club and faculty.
Entering the spacious hall
from the cold and rain without.
they were invited in the library.
Pwhere the young ladies Of the
Domestic Science Department
served smoking hot tea and cof-
iceland delicious sandwiches.
From there they were shown
the various rooms to examine
the work of the pupils. Speci-
mems of work in the business de.
pertment, the sewing room and
manual training deserve special
mention.
After a social half hour, all as
sembled in the hall for the pro.
gram.
Professor Windham called the
meeting to order. The president
of the club, Mrs. Reeves, briefly
told the origin and object Of this
health program.
Misses Katherine Finley and
Josephine Gentry furnished mu-
sic for the evening.
Our county health officer, DR..
j. 0. Quincy, gave an address
on the Value of Fresh Air"
He said people can live without
food or water for sevesal days.
but cannot live without fresh
air, and are never physically fit
unless they have an abundance
of it. Surely the Great Creator
knowing how essential it is to
life, gave it to man without
money and without price.
Mrs. McGaughy read a paper
on '.How to Prevent-C Colds.
An address by DR.. H. Boswell,
of Bonneville. health officer of
Prentiss county. on Physical
Examinations in the Schools and
What it Means to U.s." He
showed himself master of his
subject. He believes to accom-
plish the best results one must
have a sound body to possess a
sound mind. He thoroughly i'm
pressed his hearers with the i'm
portance of school children be-
ing examined for contagious and
infectious diseases.
Surely our club women will
take up this important matter
and convince our men that hui
man life-thel lives of our chill
dren-are of more importance
than dumb animals, and yet more
money is appropriated to eradi-
cate diseases among them.
Touching and pathetic Incl
dents havescome under DR.. Bos-
wells observation of children
contracting lung trouble in the
school room. This surely ought
not to be.
Thanks are due Professor
Windham, his able corps Of
teachers and the pupils for their
part in making this meeting pos
Sible and a success.
Next meeting of the club will
be February 21st.

fHopkinton Leader.)

,fHopkintOn Leader.) 0tfa
On Tuesday morning, DR.. A. st. Clair
Mackenzie, of Lenox College, sent a
telegram to the White House, notify
| ing President Wilson that the5 entire
male faculty and male istudent-body
were ready to- serve otheir,, country
whenever he considered hthat danger
was near. During the Civil War,
President Mexican, all male itlstruc-
tors and students also volunteered
their services. So far as is known
Lenox college is the first American
institution that has, been patriotic
enough to offer to the service Of the
United States, the entire man-power
of the institution, from the president
down to the youngest undergraduate.
At meeting of the athletic COM
mittee, which was held early on Tues
day morning, the recommendation was
made that all competitive athletic
games with other colleges be discon-
tinued during the remainder Of the
present season. This course is recon-
mended in view of the fact that the
present state of war demands that the
energies of all be engaged in patri-
otto services. Asasoon as possible a
competent military instructor will be
employed to develop the physical man
hood Of the college and to prepare
for anystrouble that may arise.

LEGISLATURE ENDS
IMPORTANT Session
CONTINUED from page y

financial proposition. Game War
den Hinshaw insisted that closed
period of five years for quail would
cause at least $4,000 sportsmen to
refuse to pay 81 year for hunt
er's license. That meant the taking
from his department of nearly half
of the annual income. Right on the
heels of this came the Holdeogel-
Dean bill providing for the establish
ment of state parks and appropri-
ating $4,000 from the funds Of the
game warden's department for this
purpose. With the lessening of the
income something like $4,000 and
the diverting of $4,000 to the state
park fund Mr. Hinshaw saw nothing
but bankruptcy for his department.
He argued that he would be left moth
ing for game protection and nothing
for the Matching and distribution of
fish. He had the sportsmen from
every county and city in Iowa at his
back in his fight against the closed
seasonsfor quail. The friends Of the
closed season do not believe that
there will be any falling off in the
number Of persons taking out hunt
ers license. They contend that the
quail are so scarce that but few
hunters expect to get any OF the
birds and licenses are taken out
that rabbits may be slaughtered. The
future will tell who is right in the
matter
Vote on Amendment October Is.
The bill introduced by Senator Will
son, of the Appanoose-Davis district,
providing for a special election Mon
day, October Is, to pass upon the pro-
hibitory constitutional amendment,
met with but slight opposition in
either house. The measure was
promptly signed by Gov.<Harding and
the campaign is already on. Hon. A.

RESOLUTIONS.

Whereas, In the Divine Providence
of our Heavenly Father, Charles Ut
ley of Manchester, and James A.
Wheeler, Of Tacoma, Washington
two Civil war veterans belonging to
us here in Manchester, have recent
ly been removed by death, and now
rest in our home cemetery.
Therefore, Resolved that as they
gave their services to their country
while here, we will cherish their vir-
tues and will decorate their resting
places with garlands Of flowers, and
plant thereon the stars and stripes on
each recurring decoration day. For
We were boys when we enlisted,
And these wrinkled brows were fair
And our eyes were undimmed in their
vision,
And the "frosts' that never melt,
Had not gathered on our hair,
And our step had not lost it's precis-
sion, 5
But the years have built their ter
races,
On every comrades brow,
And age makes our weary limbs
culver,
And the "frosts" are falling thick
And we're on the double quick,
To the Camp just DER the River.
Be it further resolved that these
resolutions be spread upon our re-
cords, and a copy Of the same fur
nished our town papers.

neglects to register, it IS the duty of
hotel managers, operators of board
ing houses, renters of property and
others to notify the public officials
that said alien has not registered.
Failure to do so may be punished by
a year in prison or a fine Of $1,000, or
both. The treason bill provides that
persons attempting to incite insur-
rection among the people of the state
may be sentenced to twenty years in
prison and a fine of $4,000. Any per-
son who attempts to destroy any gov
eminent property, may, be punished
by not less than six months or more
than year in Jail, or fine not less
than 5000 or more than $1,000. The
same punishment may be given any
person who joins any society to pro-
mote hostility or opposition to the
United States. {

C. Rankin, Of Pennsylvania, the
"moulder orator." is speaking daily
and will continue until election day
rolls around.
State Superintendent to be Elective.
Both houses passed the bill by Sen
ator Smith, of the Madison Adair dis
trict, providing for the election of
the state superintendent of public in
struction rather than by appointment
by the governor. Supt. Deyoe was
first elected and then given four
year appointment under the new law
by Gov. Clarke.
Star Spangled Banner Eliminated
From Medleys.
It is the custom of Iowa audiences
to stand when a band or orchestra
plays "The Star Spangled Banner"
Sometimes the piece is sandwiched
in between the strains of some rag
time melody and by the time the peo-
pie are on their feet the orchestra or
band has drifted away on "Old Black
Joe" or the "SEanee River" To res
cue the national air from its rag time
setting Klinker, of Crawford, intro
duced a bill making it crime to play
medley with this familiar air in it.
The bill was passed unanimously.
Then Tucker, of Clinton, offered a
resolution providing for the opening
of the morning session in every pub
lie school in Iowa with patriotic
music. 8N
Treason Law, Amended With Severe
Penalties.
Senator Rule gained unanimous
consent to introduce a bill amending
the present treason law. The amend
ment provides that any one convict
ed of treason against the state shall
forfeit to the state all his property,
and that he shall not be allowed to
acquire or inherit any further prop
erty. The amendment allows par
don by the governor at any time.
Highway Legislation.

construction met with but little OPP
position. The state is to invest a
sum similar to what the government
puts-in. This money is to come from
the automobile tax. The Foster
highway patrol bill is now a law.
Under the bill the county boards of
supervisors are required to hire road
patrolmen, who shall devote all of
their time during the road working
season to caring for the maintenance
of the highways. The supervisors
are required to assign each man to a
definite district, and he must visit
each portion of the road in his dis
trict at least once week. The work
ing out of the plan is left largely in
the hands of the supervisors, who
are granted authority to fix compen-
sation and determine the number of
! men required in each county. The
road patrolmen are also assigned the
duty of dragging the sections of
road under their control, or of see
ing that they are dragged. Township
road systems are not affected by this
