A COMMUNICATION
Readers of the Yerington Times, Yer
ington, Nevada.
GREETINGS:

L lANoS
Hearing at Carson that misconstruc
ton has been made to the office OF
the State Superintendent of Public In
struction, in regard to my visit to the
Colony School District, commonly
known as Simpson district, Smith Val
ley, Lyon County, on December Il,
1915, and that said demonstration
has been generalized to the effect that
| am in the habit OF entering school
houses out of hours and signing the
registers to imply that | have made
an official visit, | present the follow
ing statements OF fact covering the
report:
The signature of the Deputy Super
intendent on a register has no sig.
MITIGATION whatever The report made
to the State Superintendent concern
ing a specific visit is the only legal
record of the work done by deputy
in any school district.
Those interested in spreading the
above report thinking that it might be
to the disadvantage of the present
Deputy Superintendent erred in in
terpreting the Specification of the sig
nature on the register.
With lightweight school districts in
this supervision district, to visit twice
a year, on limited travelling expense
funds, with limited time and heavy
Office work without clerical assist
ance, your deputy superintendent has
the support of school law and his
friends to silence the unfair criticism
of those who are too ready to unjustly
spread such reports as the above.

about twenty-five per cent OF this

In every section, there have been
speakers provided for every kind OF

being addressed at the noon hour;
speeches are being made in the pic

OF Liberty Bond education.
The women of the state have taken
hold OF the idea with great enthusiasm
They have been quicker to see tho
possibilities for saving and for thrift
than the men in many Instances; and
now the slogan. "a bond in every

TO ono year in the pcnitcntiary and
4 fine Of $500, reduced from 81 300 in
consideration OF the defendants plea
OF guilt Yesterday to the charge OF
sinking the Licbcnfcls, Il surprise was
sprung when the grand jury present
ed and later returned indictments
against Klattcnhoff, Paul Wicrsc, cdi-
torial writer for Charleston American,
and W. Mueller, charging them with
conspiracy to sink the Liebenfcls, and
against Wierse, charging him with
aiding and procuring the sinking of
the I.icbcnfcls and permitting her to
sink.
These indictments grew out of the
statement Of Capt. Klattenhoff yester-
day, in his plea of guilty, that he
received an order by letter from Dr.
Mueller, then German consul at At
lanta, to sink the Licbcnfels, this let
ter being mailed to third person

T is poor soldier who deserts the army

Disability or Disertion. If your plea is disabil-

An lllustrlous Precedent.

At the beginning of the war the
French soldiers invariably wore mus
taches. Ii evidently pleased the old
commandant, for he remarked on sew
eral occasions about the appearance
ofAlls men.
One day soldier appeared before
the astonlshed commandant with no
mustache. He had shaved 1t. The
officer was exasperated. He called
the man before him and demanded TO
know where his mustache was. He
was met with the reply that the sol
dier had become tired of the mus
tache and had shaved 1t.
''It's an outrage" stormed the COM
mandant. "Did you ever hear of good
French soldier without a mustache?"
"Yes, sir" replied the man in the
ranks.
"Who" demanded the commandant.
Napoleon" came the reply.
And the commandant wilted.
