RESUMED HIS POSITION

DIR. H. F. Watt, who was appointed
by the state board physician to the
industrial school, before he went into
the army. has been replaced in the
position by the board, according to
its principle of giving back to every
man the place he occupied before en-
tering the service.
DR.. Harry Walters, who has been
filling the position during DR.. Watts
absence, has taken the most conscien-
tious and slxillful care of the health
of the school and won the confidence
and friendship of the superintendent
and all the scholars. The fact that
there has been little illness and no
deaths at the school in the sixteen OF
seventeen months that he has been in
charge is high testimony to his skill
and faithful care.

ASKS THAT THE ELECTION
BE CALLED OFF

In our recent circular letter ad-
dressed to the voters of Marion coun-
ty, it was our purpose to make them
acquainted with the facts as we un-
derstood them and not our intention
TO put something over the people. We
simply quoted what had been offered,
when and how, by the officials OF the
Marion County Fair and Agricultural
Association.
This committee was appointed to
give the matter publicity over the
county It was decided that the best
and quickest way to reach the votea'
wnnld be by circular letter, the letter
was issued and good many were dis
tributed. Also meeting of the Mar
ion County Agricultural Committee,
and citizens, was called and held at
the courthouse on July 9th, for the
purpose of discussing the matter and
getting the sentiment of the people
regarding the taking over of the fair
grounds and fairs being held by the
county commissioners. At this meet
ing considerable opposition developed
principally because the whole matter
WAS HOT su11QS1StOOus 61ISO 4SCNGAa1 GAbA-
zens expressed themselves through
the local papers, desiring more infor-
nation and explanation as to convey
ing the fair grounds and considera-
tions. Our Interpretation regarding
the conveyance and considerations of
the fair grounds are set forth in the
circular letter. It would perhaps be
best lie the fair officials would express
themselves through the papers and
state their position in the matter, or
else withdraw the proposition. f they
decide on the latter, which we think
best, the election will have to be call
ed OFF.
Taking everything into considera-
tion, the public not being properly in
formed, the short time until election
day, and misunderstanding as to the
benefits to Marion county through
holding fairs. the election should be
put off until the voters are better in
formed.

TREES FOR ROAD PROTECTION
Active Steps Taken by New York
Organizations for Development
Of Planting Scheme.

tBy PROF. r y. FAXON. State Col
lege of Forestry, Syracuse. N. "
Believing that the problem Of road
side planting should not he entirely set
aside during the movement for great
er mileage of improved highways,
active steps are now being taken
by the New York State Motor fedora
ton and the State College of Forestry
at Syracuse for the development of a
planting scheme for the section of the
highway running from Syracuse TO
Utica, distance OF about &C miles.
II has been demonstrated by those
in charge OF the work that aside from
the purely ornamental value of trees
along the highway. many practical ben.
Gifts would result from their proper
use. II is not generally realized that
trees, by means Of their shade during
the summer months, prolong the life Of
the roadway for many years, and rond
experts In general are heartily In IA
