MADISON LINDSAY
NAMED new MEMBER
CITY SCHOOL BOARD
City Board Of Education Selects Books
For Next Five Year Period and
Elects Member to FIJI Va
cancy In the Fourth Ward.

A very important meeting OF the
City Board Of Education was held at
the High School building Monday
evening. In many respects this was
one Of the most important meetings
Of this body held in many months for
at this meeting a report Of the Text
Book committee was presented and
acted upon.
In acting upon the report presented
by the committee Monday evening the
Board Of Education adopted all OF the
books for use in the High School and
the graded schools except the readers
to be used in the primary grades. The
committee made no report on these
readers as they desired to 60 into the
matter further and they will act on
these books before the 18th Of April as
is required by law.
Parents will be pleased to know that
very few changes were made by the
board in books now in use. In only
two or three studies were texts
changed so that the child now attend
ing school may pass his books on to
his younger brother or sister for next
year in most cases. 1t was noticed,
however, that the high cost of paper
and labor Is being felt in the matter
Of text books as we'll as in everything
else and new books of the same so4
now in use will cost considerably
more next year than they cost lost.
The books changed will affect only
few students aside from the histor-
les and the Biographies and because
Of the world war 1t became necessary
to change the majority of the books
In these studies.
The matter Of electing new men,
Der Of the board from the Fourth ward
to succeed Mr.. L. NJ Cavendish, re-
signed, also came before the body and
Mr.. Madison Lindsay was the only
man presented. He was elected
unanimously and will enter upon his
duties at once.
The matter Of Lyceum Course for
next winter and other important mat
ters scheduled for early disposal, were
not presented at Monday nights meet
ing.

AUTOMOBILE MEN
MEET WEDNESDAYTO
DISCUSS AUTO SHOW
Automobile Dealers, Implement Men
and Tractor Agents TO Meet Here
to Consider Holding Show
In Maysyllle.

A very important meeting Of the
automobile dealers, implement sales
men and tractor agents of Mason
county will be held at the Chamber of
Commerce Wednesday afternoon from
3 to o'clock to discuss the probable
ity of having in this city in the very
very near future a show at which au-
tomobiles, all kinds of farm imple-
ments and tractors will be displayed
and advertised.
1t has been suggested that such a
show could be held in one of the local
tobacco warehouses now that the sea-
son has closed and 1t is certain that IL
all Of the Mason county dealers join
in such an undertaking Maysville
could put up a very creditable show
that would compare very favorably
with shows in any city even many
times larger than Maysville.
Sentiment among the local dealers
as thus far expressed seems to favor
the plan overwhelmingly and it is al
most certain that Wednesdays meet
ing will result in something definite
being done toward holding a show this
year. One local merchant today said
that there is no doubt but that this
fisrt show would prove wonderful
success and then if the merchants did
not think it would pay to continue
them annually the plan could be aban-
doned. (
The matter will be discussed pro
and con at Wednesdays meeting and
jail of the features in favor of and op-
posed to the suggested plan will be
presented.
