rows to yourself until next June, any
way.

LIBERTY HILL SCHOOL CLOSES.

My school Mt Liberty Hill closed
Friday, the 2Sth, and on Friday night
we gave an entertainment in tn COM
munity church, which was expressly
for the benefit of the chldren's par
ents, for, as in most places, the pat
ents were most always busy, and l had
very few visits during the school
term. Therefore, for this reason l
considered it privilege as we'll as n
duty to be able to have these exer-
cises at the close of the school. And
rs did not have the opportunity of
seeing all the patrons, wish to thank
them all for the many favors they
bestowed upon me during the school
term.
TIL large crowd present testified to
the interest the people of the commu-
nifty showed in the progress of the
children.
/ also wish to say that ell the chill
dren who came to this school did ex-
ccllent work, and by their work and
ability it shows that they have in them
the making of useful men and women.

Pleb;iscite Is
ToBe Taken in
Old Missouri
Cole County Citizens VIII
Take Vote on League
Of Nations.

WASHINGTON. Aug. l9,-Word
was received here yesterday that a
plebisci,e on the league Of nations is
to be taken in Cole county, Mo, Cole
county i, the county in which Jeffer-
son City, the capital of Missouri, IS
located
The republican and democratic
county committees Of Cole county are
to meet today to decide upon the date
Tor the plebisoite.
Great interest was aroused here by
the news that the plebisci,e wa. 10
be taken as it is the first that has
been taken in the United States.
II wa, agreed by republicans and
democrat, alike that the result OF this
plebi,cite probably will have great in
iluence on public opinion throughout
the country.
The example of Cole county is like
" to be followed by other counties IN
Missouri, as the political committees
of Cole county in deciding upon the
plebiscite acted under the states gen
eral election law.
