In quiet school election Monday
Mrs. Fred c. Nichols and Willard B

Marshalltown State Bank, was elected
treasurer. Mrs. Nichols was elected
to succeed A. f. Balch, and Mr. Hull
for the second term to succeed him.
self. Mrs. Nichols led the field of three
candidates in the number of votes re-
ccived, due chiefly to the effort in her
behalf that was made by a group of
women. Neither Hull nor Bradbury
made any campaign for the place on
the board.
The vote for directors was Mrs
Nichols, 251; Hull 230; Bradbury. 227.
Jennings received 25S votes. The total
number of votes. exclusive of four that
were spoiled and thrown out because
they were voted for all three candi-
dates for directors. was 437. Mrs.
Nichols received 81 votes where no
other candidates were voted for.
Tax Proposal Carries.
For the first time in three years the
customary proposal, by which the
board asked authority to levy tax of
$4,000 for school house purposes, car
ried PSI to 150 Thirty-nine women
voted on the tax proposal, which was
carried by both the separate votes Of
men and women. The vote was:
Women, yes So; No. 4; men, yes, 252;
no, 146.
At each of the two previous school
elections an organized fight, by some
of the retired farmers was made
against the proposal to levy a tax for
school purposes, and each time the
proposal was beaten by a small vote.
No such effort was made at the cleo
ton Monday. This may have been
due to the knowledge that if the pro-
posal were defeated the board would
still have the authority to levy a tax
to he used for this purpose.

DR.. KERR Of O.AC. TO
SPEAK HERE SUNDAY

How America. and especially Ore
gon, can best respond to the de-
mands for increased food produc-
tion OF the war, will be dealt with
In the most practical way by DR..
Kerr. president of the o. A. c.. who
has just returned from Washington.
where he went over the entire ques-
tion Of Increased food production
and conservation with the officials
of the department OF agriculture and
the federal food administration.
DR.. Kerr will speak in Grants Pass
on Sunday evening.
The wheat shortage in the allied
countries is 624,O00,O0O bushels.
Thsir only source OF supply is the
United States, which has normal
consumption OF approximately the
amount produced. French rations
have been cut down one-half. The
effect Of the shortage are disclosed
in a statement from the French COM
missioner, Andrew Tardieu:
France has reached the limit Of
sacrifice and suffering behind the
lines. Unless America. by similar
sacrifices comes to her immediate
aid. when she does arrive with her
full military strength she may find
the conditions upon which victory
depends entirely changed. Unless
every farmer. shopkeeper. hotel man
every citizen, cooperates with the
food administration in sacrificing
profits. England and italy. as we'll
as Frame. will face state Of de-
pletion that VIII undermine the NOR
ale OF the people,
DR.. Kerr is directly represe,ting g
the government and is delivering the
message Of the nation to its loyal
citizens. All who have the welfare
Of their country at heart are asked
to come out to the meeting and help
create sentiment of saving for vic
tory in this war wherein the liberty
Of mankind Is at stake.
