rAMA WITHOUT STREET CARS.
City Tears Up Track Which GOOD IN
Way Of Paving Operations.

special to Times Republican.
Tama, Aug, ls--Thc hum OF the
street car Is no longer heard In Tama.
The contractor was ready to begin eS-
cavat!on for paving on the street 40
long occupied by the Tama ana To-
ledo car line and the owners were still
reluctant to cease operation, so the
city authorities placed men ut work
tearing UP the track Monday after
noon. Several Toledoites found them .
selves in town without their usual op-
portunities TO return To- their homes.
]. w. Lloyd. OF Marshalltown, was on
the last car to leave Toledo and found
himself marooned at Oak Park because
the PAYERS prevented the cars FUR
ther advance. Mr.. Lloyd had the UNI
usual experience OF having been one
of the first to ride on this line when
II was built some twenty -flve years
ago and the last to ride on It now as
II closes its career.
The Iowa Railway and Light Conn
pany, owner of this property. has
sought to keep this line In operation
without paying their share of the cost
OF the paving Of the street all this year
but was finally compelled 10 yield to
the will of the people.
The people Of Tama do not regret
the passing OF the car line from the
activities of the city, for taxi service
started at once will give service TO all
parts of the city much more satisfac-
torily than that rendered by the car
line

NEW SCHOOL LAVA.


Des Moines, Aug. 1s.--P. Il. McClen-
ahan, state superintendent OF public
instruction, regards the school laws
enacted by the last session OF the leg
islature, as the most progressive and
beneficial that have been passed by
any session In many years
Chief among these new laws Is the
Evans Smith bill. which provides for
the Standardization OF rural schools
This law carries with It an appropria-
ton OF 500, 900. to be used In bringing
the country schools UP to a recognized
standard OF efficiency.
A rural school district to benefit oy
this state aid must comply with GER
tain requirements regarding the school
plant, the teacher and the length OF
the school year The schoolhouse must
be situated outside ofSany city. town or
village and must be In state OF good
repair. well equipped with the neces-
sary furnishings to conduct GOOD
school: the fuel house and outbuildings
must be in good repair: the heating
and ventilating systems must be OF
some approved plan which will re-
move the foul air and bring fresh air
into the room.
The board must secure successful
teacher holding first grade uniform
certificate, normal training certifi-
cate, or Il state certificate. and the
school must be conducted for eight
months out Of each school year.
AIT schools must be passed on by
the state superintendent before they
may be designated as standard schools.
After having been so designated they
will receive from the public funds OF
the state six dollars per capita for each
child who has an average attendance
OF six months for the preceding school
year. One half of this money goes as n
bonus to the teacher and the other hale
to the district to be used for school
equipment Thru the wise provision
Of this act Iowa will receive for her
rural schools better teachers, and the
schools will be enabled to get the nee
essary equipment to insure good
school work.
Miss May E. Francis. former county
superintendent Of Bremen county
schools has been appointed inspector
in charge Of the Standardization work
for the state. Miss Francis has al
ready worked out very fine system of
schools in Bremen county and her ap-
pointment to the present position is
Considered opportune.

Boy browns at InnviIIe.

Fort Dodge, Aug. 13.-The first Fort
Dodge boy to be the victim Of a drown
ing accident this season was William
White. the 14-year- old son Of Mr.. and
Mrs. s. G. White, who was, drowned
in the Des Moines river at Innville.
The boy was swinging on a rope that
was suspended from the branch Of a
tree and swung out over the water,
when he lost his grip and fell into the
river below. Altho he could swim, the
fact that the boy had on his clothes
and was probably somewhat frighten-
ed by the fall made It impossible for
him to save himself.
The rope had been put UP by a group
OF older boys. all good swimmers, and
was supposedly out of reach Of the lit
tie fellows. However, by means Of a
long stick. they succeeded in getting
hold of the rope. The water at this
spot Is from fourteen to twenty feet
deep and Of course dangerous for those
who are not expert swimmers.
With William were his twin brother,
Edward, and a group Of friends. all Of
Whom tried to save the boy, but they
reached the body too late. A. camp
at Innville threw a rope for the boy to
grasp. but to no avail ~

Need we explain Mrs. Remus is
seeking divorce from her husband?
Here are the tips:
Give the husband all the rope he
wants-hen never hang himself.
Never, never try to curb his liberty;
make him happy; keep the home coy
and attractive; always appear cheer
full and pretty-always feed him well,
pet him, humof him-these three
things alone win keep him from caus-
ing you any trouble; never look upon
him as mere provider-they should
be treated like pets.
"If," says Mrs. Holmes, after doing
all these things the husband does not
want to stay at home-he isn't human.
