American people, appealing to them
to let "the president and congress
know that the people at nome protest

The Work That Paye.

Lord Kelvin, the famous Scotch sci
enlist, used to tell the students In the
Glasgow university that the thing that
made him make up his mind to get an
education at all costs and to work with
his head ana not with his hands was
remark made by Scotch minister.
''In Scotland" he said. you can get
all the labor you want for half crown
IA day. but there is no country In the
world where you can hire mind for
half sovereign II day. and some Of it
costs fl00 an hour"

DITloN WORST in YEARS.

DANv,LLE SCHOOLS
CLOSE, ACCOUNT
FROZEN PIPES

Not only is the cold felt on account
of the shortage of gas throughout the
county, but the cold weather froze the
pipes in the boiler of the Danville
school, making the use of coal impos-
sible. AS a result, the Danville school
was closed all day Monday while a
number of men were attempting to
thaw out the pipes leading to the radi-
ators. However, it is hoped that
school may be re-opened Tuesday.

LOTS OF EXHIBITS
FOR THE MENAGERIE
These Include Hon. "Jack"
Arnold Who Is Dying
To Be Gov.

The continuous vaudeville perform
ance of Ohio Republican leaders is
furnishing diversion enough these days
to drive away dull moments, says the
Sunday Columbus Dispatch
Since the November election they
have certainly been running around
in circles most of the time, putting
on ring acts of a very amusing nature.
What makes their stunts all the fun
nier is that they cannot agree upon
manager for their big show There
are many WHO aspire to this position,
but there is so much suspicion abroad
that whenever anyone is proposed for
it,, he is at once accused of wanting
the job so that he can trot out his
fayortes for the public spotlight when
the acts are put on, that an agree
ment cannot be reached as to who
should get the job Of manager or chief
rngmaster of the show
Last Tuesday the state central com
mittee, which appointed an advisory
committee, which in turn appointed
subadvsory committee, whose func-
| ton was to appoint another advisory
committee to succeed the advisory
committee, first appointed by the cen
tJal committee, met with the sub-av-
first advisory committee, and appoint
ed another advisory committee to man
age the big show.
BIG WORKING FORCE
At this joint session they fixed up a
force of 80 TO run the show when 1t
starts out on the road again next
year, Remembering the disastrous sea
son they had In l9l6-the gate receipts
running behind 800, 900 or so-there
is a feeling that some one else should
march at the head of the procession,
leading the elephant the next season.
The kick is not 30 much against the
size OF the gate receipts, because they
were vastly In excess of any season
yet, but because OF the reckless and
uuwise expenditure of the same, leav-
ing the old party with a deficit on its
hands which Is causing its chief stock
holders grave concern. They don't
know where the money Is to come
from to wipe out the debt.
The force of so includes ticket col
lectors, money changers, side show
spielers, animal trainers, popcorn
venders, chariot race drivers. bare
back riders, razor backs, stump pullers
and such supernumeraries as all first
class shows are supposed to carry.
1T ALL TAKES TIME
Just when the manager or boss OF
the show will be chosen is something
which the future alone will reveal
There are lot of exhibits available
for the menagerie and these will be
brought in after the selection Is made
Included in the exhibits will be those
who regard themselves as gubernator
ial timber. There is one exhibit thai
will attract considerable attention

Columbus, who will fight like hyeni
II any attempt is made to cage him.
From all indications next year.

as the one given last year. Probabl!
1t will contain number of new curl
osities, few new performers. hut /
Is known that comeback stunts win b.
attempted by some of those who star

CHAIRMAN WILLIAMS CLAIM
State Censorship of Motion Pictures
Here to Stay.

Columbus, Feb. 5--State censor.
ship of motion pictures is here to
stay unless it is superseded by ade-
Quate federal regulation. The pres
ent national board is make be-
lieve" plaything in the hands of the
motion picture industry, to fool the
people. II has no power to compel
films to be submitted or to enforce its
orders.
This was the gist of an address de-
livered by Charles G.. Williams, chair
man of Ohio board of censors. Cen.
sorship in the hands of Intelligent,
broad-minded persons is a godsend to
society; but II this power Is given to
fools, fanatics or grafters, and Is con.
Quoted in a high-handed. arbitrary
manner, il Is an outrage on civillza-
tion" he declared.
