A RantankerOus Buick Six

| Will Moore, the grain and ice
man, is up in the air concerning
his big Buick touring car. II
does the unexpected and un.
necessary when there is no occa'
sion for even mild suspicion con.
cerning it. During the chautau.
qua while it was parked at the
school grounds and a number or
the program was under way, this
car with spooks moved off and
stopped in about rs feet, nc
pushed, no pullee, but went all
the same with only master Wood
row Moore and Miss Elinor Owen,
two small children aboard, neith-
er with a key or the combination
but each with a big jag of fright.
A few nights thereafter or
more accurately, Thursday night
of last week, the car was in the
garage at the Moore home. About
A: 80 a. m. Mrs. Moore heard
what she thought was a train
whistling constantly. She got
up and went to the window and
enjoyed the music for a while,
then she concluded the sound
was on her premises and called
Will. He objected to being dis
turbed at that hour and refused
to crawl out. Mrs. Moore arous-
ed DR.. Northcutt across the street
and he proceeded to investigate.
Will by that time was alive to
something unusual. Monks, a
deaf negro some distance away
was aroused by the footing and
he came and joined the process
sion to the garage. Numbers of
others for as far as half mile
were stirred from their slumbers
and the unusual early risers were
numerous and the horn blew on.
Doc waded into the garage and
peered about. Nothing doing
but noise from the whistle. Will
circulated about the premises
with his other skies in search of
the car thief or meddler. Moth
ing doing. Doc pulled some string
Or another, he dosen't know
which nor where it was, but it
stopped the racket.
A few more nocturnal stunts
and some one else will own that |
,antankeriferous buzz wagon.

OUR SCHOOL OPENED
Rain Cut First Days Attendance
New Faces Among Teachers
Results Looked For

Supt. J. C. Bond arrived the
latter part of last week and i'm
mediately took up the work of
getting the school in this district
in shape for work. Prof. Bond
had been out with a chautauqua
company during the summer and
the work appears to have agreed
with him and he is fit to go to the
big task ahead of him with all
the advantages of health, ability
and personal interest in his voca.
ton and school.
The new faces in the faculty
are: Miss Gertrude Thale OF
Lewistown. Mo. a young woman
of wide reputation as an educa-
tor, who enters upon her duties
with every advantage of expert
ence added to a faultless educa-
ton and a liking for the work.
She is principal. Miss Inez Stokes
of Cameron Mo. is the teacher of
mathematics and language, an
enthusiastic young woman of un-
doubted ability. She comes so
highly recommended as to make
predictions of perfectly satisfac-
tory work superfiuous at this time
Mrs. Lula w. Gillian whose
husband is at the front,
has vocational home economics
sewing and cooking. and English
in charge. She is a young woman
OF SPLENDID presence. unques-
toned qualification and the odds
are all in her favor which do not
fall to the benefit of her pupils.
The entire faculty of the high
school is of that quality which
assures patrons that whatever
there is in pupils will be got out
of them and whatever they lack
will be instilled into them.
The addition of vocational
home economics is certainly COM
mendable. Pupils taking this
course are limited to mathemat-
les and English for other studies.
The grades are in charge of
the 7th. and 9Th. Miss 10 Martin,
9Th. and 9th. Miss Marian White
3rd. and 4th. Miss Elizabeth
White, primary lst. and End.
Miss Myrtle Miller, in whose fav-
or we could scarcely add a word
which would further assure pa.
irons and pupils of the ability
and interest of each to successful
ly handle their respective divi-
sions. These young women have
held the same positions before
and had they or either of them
been unsuitable. it is reasonable
to assume that the same board
would not have again employed
them.
But no matter what the quality
of teachers, if the people do not
stand firmly behind them in their
work, the school cannot be a
success. Every one in the COM
munity should ilend whatever en-
couragement to the faculty in his
power to the end. that our school
may challenge again the best in
the etsate and become sought after
as the right place to send Young
sters for education, We start
with bright prospects. Lets
keep them polished.

Hugo Bartz.

The community has indeed lost
one of its worthiest citizens ano
universally esteemed gentlemen.
Hugo Bartz embodied that which
distinguished him as one of ''the
noblest works of Cod" From the
day he landed here and took up
his residence at the home of Mrs.
John CASTOR with whom he board
ed until his marriage, to the
hour of his death, no word Of re.
proach was ever breathed against
him. The representation of
industry, he reconstructed the
old mill with months of hardest
toll and for years his custom ex-
tended for miles around. He
learned the millers trade begin
ming when a boy Id years of age
in Germany where he was born
July |. 1888, and a more honest
toll taker or better maker of
flour and meal never had the con-
fidence more complete of all who
had dealings with him.
! Hugo Bartz landed in New
York Nov. z 1867 and came to
this city Mar. II 1868. June II
1874 he was united in marriage
to Miss Sophia Sasse of Bruns-
wick and to the onion came four
children three of whom, Hugo,
Misses Norinne and Leta and
his ever devoted wife survive
and Romie, deceased June Is
1898. A brother and sister of
Chicago are the remaining sur
yivers.
On account of failing strength
Mr.. Bartz sold his milling interest
in 1883 and formed a partnership
with j. J. Moore in the construc-
tion and operation of the street
car line which is yet in operation
by j. ]. Moore and Geo. West.
Mr.. Bartz having sold his inter-
est to Mr.. West in 1909 re-
tired to spend the remainder of
his days at the SPLENDID home he
had provided years ago for bis
most devoted family.
Jan. l6 1886 Hugo Bartz united
with the Presbyterian church
and for years he has been a men,

Monday evening after months
Of close confinement to his home
and weeks to his bed, Hugo
Bartz whose eighty years had
worn his once robust physical
to a mere fragment
n spite of constant tendeIest
are by his loving family, gently
ylided into eternity, as peaceful
md resigned as one who has liv- /
ID useful and manly life might |
lope for.
Services were conducted at |
he family residence Wednesday
by his former pastor, |
Rev. Franc Mitchell and inter-
nent in the city cemetery.
We join in deep sympathy for
he bereayed and tho inevitable,
We most sincerely deplore the de-
,arture of our life long friend.

Big Church Dedication.

~ 10 hot soy NIX IOO lHuCu W dS-
sert that the new Methodist
Church at Dalton is the best ar
ranged, most commodious and as
handsome in the interior as any
such edifice need be. The exte-
rior of the big house of worship
on the south side at our esteem
ed neighboring town is imposing,
but it cannot be appreciated un-
til an inspection of the interior
has been made.
The basement has inc rooms,
on the north, the first west being
a room for the keep of infants
during services or on other occa-
sions at the building, and it is
equipped fully as is the next
room, set apart for larger child
ren.
The next room is for women
and is furnished nicely, and the
next is for men to powder and
puff (pipes or performances).
The next room is the kitchen
with range and utensils neces-
sary to such quarters. On the
south side are the Sunday School
rooms and bunker all these rooms
surrounding the big assembly
room wherein are tables, chairs
and everything nearly, for dining
and social or business purposes.
The auditorium on the upper
floor is a beauty and excellently
arranged. Pews which will seat
comfortably more than three
hundred and a pulpit made to ad-
just to long or short preacher,
we'll arranged electric lighting
system and windows which ad-
NIT all the daylight that can be
gathered from the outside, deco
rations appropriate and beauti-
full, the room is certainly all that
could be desired in a much larger
community and more pretentious
congregation.
Sunday the splendid edifice
was dedicated, Rev. Boaz of Ken
lucky discoursing on current E.
vents and their relationships to
religion and commencing the
christian spirit of the people
who conceived the erection of the
church and devoted time and
means to its completion. Three
thousand dollars was raised dur
ing the meeting Sunday and that
wiped out all the expense of
building and furniture. a load of
ten thousand dollors disposed of.
1t is needless to say that such a
structure and furniture and fix
lures could not now be had for per
haps less than double the amount.
After the dedication sermon
the vast multitude on hand for
the ceremonies repaired to the
big room below where such a
dinner was on the long tables as
knocked conservation into the
unlighted background. Fried
and broiled chicken by the dish
pan and tub full; old country
ham in such quantity and of such
delicious quality. oh well; and
the cart loads of the best home
made bread and butter to over
flow any diary; salads of all sorts
and all else which could be brot
from the larders of a prosperous
and hospitable neighborhood was
spread and every one was urged
to partake to their entire satisfac-
ton and then some. We know
whereof we speak, for tho we
did not get to the church until
ate in the afternoon, there was
what we have mentioned in view
1t that time; not so much, of
course, when we left.
We heartily congratulate the
people of Dalton and vicinity on
heir magnificent achievements.
