COUNTY SCHOOLS NOW
CLOSED MAY NOT REOPEN
Meeting Of the County Board Of Edu.
cation Called For Saturday, JAN
nary 25 to Consider COndi.
tons Throughout the
County.

County Superintendent Of Schools
Turnipseed has called a meeting Of
the County Board Of Education at his
office for Saturday, January %, when
the school situation throughout the
county will be carefully considered
and plans will be laid for the future.
1t Is expected that by that time condi-
tons will be normal again so far as
the health of the county Is concerned.
1t is a question as what will be best
to do with the county schools which
have now been closed because Of the
influenza condition throughout the
county. County Schools will be out
during March and 1t is question for
the board members to decide as to
whether or not the schools closed be-
cause of influenza should be reopened
this season.
1t seems to be the general opinion
Of the school authorities that schools
in the parts of the county where the
"flu" situation is not serious shouldcbe
continued but that the schools that
have been closed should not be open
ed again this year. -

ADAMS County REPRE-.
SCENTED AFTER 100 YEARS
Lieutsnsnt Governor Brown First
Adams CountiaA to Hold State
Once IN 100 Years.

7
Columbus, Ohio, January 17--It has
been 100 years since Adams county
was represented In the state govern
ment by an elective state official.
Governor Thomas Kirker, 1908 to 1910,
was the last state official elected from
Adams county.
The long silence Of Adams county
was broken last Monday, however,
when Clarence J. Brown was inau-
gurated as lieutenant governor and
assumed his duties as presiding officer
Of the state Senate.
In commemoration of the event,
Adams county citizens presented to
Lieutenant Governor Brown gravel
made from q massive oak log taken
from the Oldest house still standing
within the state. The house, which
according to historians, is well over
the century mark in years, stands on
the highest point in Adams county
near Manchester and ovelooks the
Ohio River.
The gravel was presented by Rep
resentative F. F. Mccoy Immediately
after Mr.. Brown took the oath of Of
fee as lieutenant governor.
The new lieutenant governor bears
the distinction Of being the youngest
man ever elected to that Office in Ohio.
He is 2S years Of age.

RECORDS BROKEN
ON LOOSE LEAFMAR.
kET As TO PRICE
Mayslick Crop Averaged s71.05 While
the High Basket In the Crop
Brought s91 Per Hundred |,
Big Buyers Put Life
In Market.

Messrs. Theo. Kirk and William
Reynolds, Of the R. j. Reynolds To-
bacco Company, were on the Maysville
market Friday and while the market
has been full OF life ever since 1t open
cd on the first day of the year, these
gentlemen put new life into It and
prices went even higher than they had
ever yet gone this season.
All records were broken when Mr..
Theo. Kirk at the Peoples warehouse
started the first basket in the crop Of
John Allen, colored, and 1t was not
long before It ran up to the very high
price Of SOL and Mr.. Kirk picked 1t off.
Two more baskets in this crop
brought 800 hundred each and the
entire crop Of 1885 pounds made
general average of $71.O5. This crop
was grown on the farm of Mr.. P. II.
Thomas in the Mayslick neighbor-
hood and 1t broke all records for high
prices previously established.
Henry Williams and John Ander-
son sold crop which they grew on
the farm of Mrs. Darnall near Mays
lick at a general average Of $66 and
many others sold in the high figures
during the day.
The market closed for the week in
much excitement. A large amount of
tobacco was on the floors and prices
were higher than old timers had ever
seen them before. There is reason to
believe that the market will open
Monday just as strong as 1t closed
Friday evening.

Bernstorf in the Spotlight.

Hindenburg and Ludendorff are
lined up in the Berlin assembly hear
ing on the question of responsibility
for Germany's defeat against Bern,
storff, former ami assador here. The
former field marshal and his chief
aids declare that Bernstorff lied to
them and to the government. The
former ambassador declares that he is
delighted at being picked out as the
goat. His frieads are congratulating
him. Perhaps, if these Germans get
mad enough they will tell all the
facts relating to the campaign, here
and in Europe. Bernstorff is playing
some sort of political game, as hi,
posture of pleasure at being accused
indicates clearly. With rumors rife
of royalist reaction preparing for a
test Of strength, Bernstorff may be
figuring on a new role that will com
mand popular support. He was a very
bad guesser regarding Americas pur
poses and spirit. Possibly he is 6
better guesser as to Germany's in
clinations.

The World Is on the Mend.

Refusal Of the National Grange, the
oldest and largest organization Of
American farmers, to cast in its for
tunes with those of organized labor is
an encouraging indication that the
trend of economic conception again
is toward the normal. Farmers and
industrial workers have no such com
munity of interests as to demand a
defensive or justify an offensive al
lance between them. There is moth
ing to which either is entitled from
the people as a whole which will be
denied them because they 60 their sep
arate ways.
Proposal of such an alliance had its
origin in the fact that the times are
out Of joint. That America and the
world are sick politically is not to be
disputed. But they are not sick unto
death, nor is it unique malady with
which they are afflicted. All its
symptoms we're charted long ago, and
more than one generation Of men has
