Slight Decrease In
School Attendance
BOARD APPROVES CONTRACT FOR W00O
Teachers For Coming Year Will Be Engaged
AT Next Meeting

The regular monthly meeting
of the board of education was
held 9t the high school last eve
ming with all members present
with the exception of II. b. Davis,
who is out of the city. Bills to
the amount of $9O6.O5 were al
lowed and warrants ordered
drawn in payment of the same.
superintendent Lukens re-
ported slight falling of in the
attendance for the month, the
enrolment on the last of Janu-
airy being 494 as compared with
SOP at the end of December.
The average daily attendance
during the month was given as
l9i. Mr.. Lukens reported the
percentage of attendance was
lower and the percentage of tar
diness greater than for any pre-
Nious month during the school
year. The probable cause for the
increase in the tardiness was
the opening of school at $3.50 in
stead of 900 on account of the
lack of electricity for lights.
There were 293 pupils who were
neither absent nor tardy during
the month. On previous months
the number neither absent nor
lardy has averaged about 400
moro.
Mr.. Lukens also reported that
the war work asked of the
schools is lining up we'll, both
among the teachers and pupils.
The Junior Red Cross is starting
off with a membership which in
cludes all but five or six students
i'm the high school. The lower
grades have not yet been asked to
iorganize. Fifty-seven per cent of
the students invested in war saw
ings stamps in the month of
January, the sales during the
month totaling S7O9.O0.
The contract of H. ROwinsky
Ito furnish 250 cords of wood for
the sum of S1625 was accepted
Iby the board and a bond for the
full amount Of the contract was
approved. The board ordered the
sidewalk on Jefferson street by
the Lincoln school repaired. The
board made the hiring Of teachers
for the next school year matter
of business to be taken up at the
next meeting.

PERMIT NOT NECESSARY
TO PURCHASE ALCOHOL


Probate Judge Charles G..
Cromwell has been advised by the
attorney general of the state that
it is no longer necessary for in
dividuals to obtain from the court
a permit to purchase alcohol.
Under the law the only kind Of
alcohol which can be purchased
from druggists is medicated,
certain poisons being added to
render it impossible to use as a.
beverage. 1t is impossible for in
dividuals to now purchase pure
alcohol. Druggists, however,
must still obtain a permit from
the probate court in order to i'm
port pure alcohol.

COMMISSIONERS WILL
PURCHASE TRACTOR

The board of county commls-
sioners, at their regular monthly
meeting held Monday, decided
upon the purchase of a tractor
for use on the county roads. The
engine decided upon is one man
ufactured by Kinnard & Sons of
Minneapolis and is what is known
as a 1880 tractor. The contract
calls for delivery on or about
March IS.
The tractor will be used to
furnish the motive power for
road graders and will haul two
good-sized graders at one time.
THE county recently purchased a
grader with a i2-foot blade,
which will be used on the road
work this year and it was neces-
sary TO secure an engine to fur
nish the motive power for it,
the grader being too large to be
handled satisfactorily with
ihorses. The commissioners at
first considered the purchase Of a

of the Riverdale dixie and ground
today to determine the kind of a
dixie and the amount and kind of

is being made to determine the
approximate cost in order that
the organization of the district
can be taken up with the various
tract owners with q view of ar
ranging for the construction of
the dixie without further litiga-
ton. A meeting of the land own
ers affected will be held in the
near future, at which time it will
be possible TO state definitely
what the cost Of the project will
