President wilson for Wartime schools.

President Wilson urges generous
support for schools of all grades during
war time. In letter to Secretary
Lane approving the Bureau of Educa-
ton IS plan for an educational campaign
this summer and fall he says:
/ am pleased to know that despite
the unusual burdens imposed upon our
people by the war they have maintain
ed their schools and other agencies of
education so nearly at their normal eff
fciency. That this should be continued
throughout the war and that, in SO far
as the draft law will permit, there
should be no falling off in attendance
in elementary schools, high schools or
colleges is a matter of the very great
est Importance, affecting both our
strength in war and our national wei
fare and efficiency when the war is
over. So long as the war continues
there will be constant need of very
large numbers of men and women of
the highest and most thorough training
for war service in many lines. After
the war there will be urgent need not
only for trained leadership in all lines
of industrial, commercial, social and
civic life, but for a very high average
of intelligence and preparation on the
part Of all the people. would there
fore urge that the people continue to
give generous support to their schools
Of all grades and that the schools adj
just themselves as wisely as possible to
the new conditions to the end that no
boy or girl shall have less opportunity
for education because of the war and
that the nation may be strengthened as
it can only be through the right
education of all its people. approve
most heartily your plans for making
through the Bureau Of Education a
comprehensive campaign for the sup
port Of the schools and for the main
tenance of attendance upon them, and
trust that you may have the coopera-
tion in this work Of the American
Council of Education -

DR.. Gephart Testifies at Var
lance With Other Wit
rlesses in MOnahan Case
Jury Is at Sea.
INQUEST AGAIN POSTPONED
Four Other witnesses Testify But
Their Testimony Does Not At
feet the Case In the
Least

And the end of the Monahan INQUEST
IS not yet. After hearing the testimony
OF five witnesses Friday, Coroner Her
bert Q. Millager adjourned the case
until Friday Of next week. The ad
lJoltrnment was for the purpose of hav.
ing the testimony heretofore taken
Transcribed so that the jurors may &c
over it and determine whether they wish
to have any other witnesses subpoenaed
Coroner Millager is bending every
effort to have every bit of evidence
which has any bearing on the case
brought before. the jury and will CON
Itinue to do so until the jury is salts
fed beyond any doubt as to the true
cause of Mike Monahan s death.
None of the witnesses heard Friday
adducea any new evidence or testified
to anything that had the slightest
bearing upon it with the possible ex
ception Of DR.. G. III. Gephart, who per
formed the post norton examination
His testimony, in some instances, was
directly at variance with that of some
of the other witnesses in regard to any
visible marks, or injuries, on Mona
han s head. Several other witnesses
Including DR.. Billmeier, of Zion City
testified that there was little mark
on the side of Monahan S head, while
some of them said they saw little
streak of blood in his hair.
DR.. Gephart testified that the head
was swollen so uniformly that it was
impossible to detect any injury to the
head from the outside of the scalp and
that it was after the hair and scalp
was removed that he detected that
there was fracture of the skull
When he was first called to see Mona
han he could not move his. right leg OF
his right arm although hemcould. move
his left leg and left arm slightly. His
right arm and leg being paralyzed led
him to believe that there was some
injury to- the left side Of his head. An
examination after death revealed that
there was fracture about six-and-a-
udII luCuGS lUlg OVER Gu0 yloIb SHI, WHICH
had been caused by blow by some blunt
instrument on the back Of. the head.
Dr. Gephart testified further that the
injury to the back of the head, could
not have been caused by a round in
strument, such as ball, but was caused
by something fiat or blunt, like NAL
let. He was positive that man, how
ever badly intoxicated, even though
he had no control over himself could
not have fallen with force enough to
cause the fracture unless he had fallen
from quite distance, for instance,
from falling off step-ladder. He
was positive the injury could not have
been caused by falling out Of the
door only two-and-a half, or three feet
to the ground.
After the jury had considered the
evidence for awhile it was decided to
have all the testimony heretofore
given, Transcribed, so that the jury
could go over it and determine whether
to summon any more witnesses.

THRIFT DAY
IS PROCLAIMED
To the people of Iowa:

| To the people of Iowa:
BY virtue of authority in me vested,
and in harmony with the great ma
i.tional movement for saving, / hereby
designate February Srd, 1918, as
Thrift Day" in Iowa.
| In times of peace. thrift and econ.
| omy are prime virtues. AS a war
necessity, thrift and saving are fund.
amentaI. A great thrift campaign
has been started by the national
government, the purpose of which
| is to interest every man, wom-
an, and child in the country in saving,
so that they may loan to the govern
ment in this critical hour. No in
should not join this movement.
This day especially set apart is the
holy Sabbath, l want to urge that
every pulpit in the state use the sub
ject Of Thrift" as text on this
particular day, and that our people
everywhere attend church and join in
the spirit Of the occasion.
/ also especially urge that on the
day previous, every man, woman and
child, SO far as possible, go to their
postofioe. bank, or other authorized
agency, and purchase no less than
one $500 United States war savings
stamp. which will cost SAB. and
urge at the same time that those
who can, purchase more. In this
way, if all will do their part, our ac-
cumulated savings can be a tremendI
Gus factor in financing this war to
successful victory.
I want to urge upon the school boys
and girls the advantage of the OPP
portunity that is offered them to
help their government, for these
thrift stamps can be purchased in
denominations of CSC, and if each boy
and girl in the nation will buy one, it
will put our soldiers over the top and
bring peace to this war-stricken
world.
/ want to urge educators, and es-
pecia1ly teachers, to make the sub.
ject of Thrift" one for daily study
and conversation in the schools The
lesson that will be taught viii be
helpful not only today but in the
years to come.
In testimony whereof, / have here
unto set my hand and caused to be
affixed the great seal of the state.

the new model F, S-cylinder 300 HIP

i6A inches. and 9-inch stroke and is
fine example of the 8-cylinder idea

such motors as this that give the cruis-
ers and patrol boats the speed of the
express train and torpedo boat de-
stroyers. Vessels powered with single
or twin motors Of this type attain
speeds approximating 80 m. p. h. and
are capable Of holding that speed for
long runs. A notable scout patrol
