The future of lawn tennis In
America vas painted in rosy
hues at the annual meeting of
the United States Lawn Tennis
association in New York city.
There were many predictions
that the coming cason would be
the greatest IN the history Of
American lawn tennis, partly
because Of the steadily inCrcuS-

partly because the war depart

ideal game for training purposes,

nual meeting, held Friday, was
unusual In that no ranking of

Do not make the slightest change in
the electrical wiring without consulting
a competent electrician.
"Take all precautions possible to

and other notables, but the statement
that the kaiser's picture was beside
that of President Wilson s is denied.
The latter's portrait was not there at
the time.
Had the kaiser s picture been hung
in reserved spot and what would ap-
pear to have been place of honor,
there woud have been cause for COM
plant; but it held no significant posi-
tion, and the very fact that cartoon
showing the kaiser hanging at the end
of rope, another depicting him intern
ed on an island suffering the just pun
;shment due to his brutality, and others
equally unsympathetic to anything in
the Hunnish line, prove that the teach
er is 100 per cent American.
Over two weeks ago base note at.
tacking the Americanism of Miss
Doerfler was found on the school house
door, and it was her intention then to
resign Immediately, but she thought it
fair to the school that she should finish
the three months term named in tho
contract. It is regretted now, however,
that such a step was not taken, for tho
spirit of revenge prevalent in certain
parties of the community was then
pharasaically concealed.
Using the words of one authority, all
broad minded citizens will agree, "that
the poster of the above mentioned note
was coward" because if he found any
fault with the teacher, why had he not
gone in person to her, and the misun-
derstanding would have been remediedf
The party, who shamefully s.gNod
himself can American" is guilty of
slander, for no loyal American would
stoop to such meanness and cause
young girl to give up her position, who
was making her first attempt in the
business world and was devoting heart
and soul to the interests of her pupils
and the patrons of district No. 81.
1t is believed that the entire trouble
was started by person or persons re-
siding in another school district.
