TWO ARRESTS
FOLLOW FLU ORDER

Chief OF Police Kelly made several
arrests last week Tor violation of the
order OF the City Board Of Health
requiring the owners Of the saloons
hotels, etc, to remove the chairs IRON
their phases OF business and to prevent
people from congregating there.
A rather informal trial of Frank
Rosaschi, OF the Palace pool room
and Charles Holland, Of the Holland
Hotel, took place Monday before
Judge Blanchard.
Chief Kelly testified that he had
received orders from the City Board
of Health to notify the owners OF
public places to remove the chairs and
not to allow crowds to congregatc:
that he notified Mcssrs. Holland and
Rosaschi to comply with the order;
that thereafter he had seen a dozen
men in the Palace pool room and a
number in the Holland Hotel, and, in
pursuance OF his instructions. had
pldCeQ Tic OWliClS uiluSi dliSot.
Each was released on depositing
$50 bail
MIR. Rosaschi explained that he had
removed all the chairs from his rooms.
but that it was difficult to prevent
men from coming in: that he had sew
era times requested patrons not to
inger in the house; indeed he had
been obliged to ask Judge Blanchard
himself to move on" The only way
to prevent people from coming into
his house was to close the place en-
tirely
Mr.. Holland said there were never
more than three or four in the hotel
lobby since the order had been given
On Saturday the chairs had been all
been removed from the lobby. but
that a few of the guests had brought
chairs back He said no crowds
had congregated there. He related
that one party had come to the hotel
,or accommodations, but on learning
hat they could not sit down, became
disgusted and continued OH to Reno,
District Attorney Clark Guild. who
represented the City OF Yerington, cx-
blamed that the law empowered the
Board of Health to make orders SINH
ar to those made i'll this instance.
and that it was the duty of the Chief
OF Police to enforce these orders. He
would not attempt to say whether
he health conditions prevailing in Yer
ngton warranted the Board in max
ing the order. He was satisfied that
the Spanish influenza did prevail here
but whether it was of sufficient vru-
.ence or prevalence as to warrant
general quarantine measures was for
the doctors to determine. and con-
tinucd MIR. Guild Il am not learned
enough in medical science to say
whether the action of the Board was
necessary or not MIR. Guild earn
cstly advised every body to obey the
order, hoping and predicting that the
)an would be fitted i'll few days
The Judge said that if the defend
ants promised to keep the chairs out
Of their places of business and pre-
vent crowds from assembling he
would dismiss the case, but that ii
they were again brought before him
on a similar charge, he would impose
the full penalty of the law both fine
and Imprisonment.
The defendants agreed to do their
utmost to comply with the orders of
the Board, and so endeth the first
chapter.

AUTOS OR SCHOOLS, WHICH?

Even big, rich New York City is
beginning to realize that her schools
and her teachers are not getting fair
deal. Here is a statement recently
published in School Life. 1t does not
speak of rural schools; but the read
er can mentally change the figures to
suit his or her local conditions and the
shoe will fit all right.
"Of the 100000 new automobiles
OF the pleasure-car type, valued at ap-
proximately $2,OOO,OO0,OOO. that will
be SOLD in the United States during
the present calendar year, it is con-
servatively estimated that New York
City alone will purchase $4,000, valued
S50,OOOOO0. 1t Is estimated that there
are in the city of New York 100, 600
chauffeurs, whose salaries will amount
to approximately $1JO,OOOOO0. Garage
charges (there are 100000 cars, ap'
prOximately, in the city, will be not
less than $25,OOO,OO0, probably much
more. Certainly a community that
can afford to pay nearly quarter of
a billion dollars a year for pleasure.

teachers of it's 100000 children with a

SCHOOLS STAND STILL

Everybody and everything appear
to move forward while the rural
school stands still. Few people ride
in buggies or surries these days; but
the children go to pretty much the
same kind of school their parents at
tended.
That this tendency to let the schools
stand still is the same in many pOr-
tons Of the country can be seen from
the following extract from a letter
written the Bureau of Education at
Washington by Governor w. L. Hard
ing, of the great and progressive state
Of Iowa:
II spent a week last September
visiting one-room country schools.

had been made in the last 20 years in

dian wheat is taking it-all the way
from the wheat fields to Central

The Westward route doubtful!y

a practical solution of the difficulty
Rail costs Westward are cheaper be-
cause The gradients are lower:
freight cars can be loaded twice a.

inspection has proved that the grain
is not injured by the variations OF
temperature involved, boats are pier

grain can actually be transported t.

less than by the old Eastern route
Terminal facilities are being er

BETTER SCHOOLS IN NORWAY

Some of the nations on the other
side Of the Atlantic are pushing ahead
in the practical education of their chill
dren. Besides school work, children
are taken on long excursions so they
may become acquainted with what
other people are doing in other local
tiles. All of which proves conclusive
ly that we in America must make our
schools real schools for real Goth Cen
fury Children.
The following extract from School
Life will give the reader an idea Of
these excursions which are being de-
veloped for school children in Nor
way:
Excursions of pupils which were
much in vogue before the war arg
again conducted and on a much larger
scale than formerly. During the sum-
mer vacation many of the school build
ingS are opened as travel bureaus.
Tie seats and desks are moved out
or placed out of the way, and the
schOOlhOuse is equipped as pupils
hotel. 'FOlkeskOlen' reports that an
arrangement like the following has
been found satisfactory: A certain
schOOlrOOm in Stockholm is furnished
with % cots, mattresses, pillows, and
blankets, and 6 washbasins. These ar
| rangements accommodate group of 2C
pupils, with the 2 teachers in charge
Towels and sheets are brought by the
| travellers themselves.
Every school in the cities is fur
nished with a school kitchen. Permis
sion is given to the travellers to use
this and the cooking utensils in prepar
| ing breakfast The midday meal is
taken at some of the inexpensive, anC
yet very good, hotels that are found
! at all principal points. All arrange
ments are made beforehand, so thai
| each bureau and hotel knows wher
| every party is to arrive.
"BOys and girls travel separately. i
the trip is short, it is made on foot
if longer, the boys use bicycles. Trip:
to more distant parts requiring 10 day:
or 2 weeks are made by rail or steam
boat. 1t is always possible to get verl
much reduced rates for a school excur
sion. Pupils from different countries
visit each other in this way; the pres
ent season will bring pupils tOgethe
from Norway, Sweden, Denmark, Fin
land, Holland and Germany"

BIG HUNTING SEASON IS NOW
EXPECTED

Hunters report the past dove sea-
son as the biggest for several years.
although this was not anticipated
early in the season. The number of
hunting licenses issued indicates
many hunters. There were few ar
rests for violation of the game laws.
The quail and rabbit rabbit season is
now close at hand.
County Game Warden Douglas
Thomas an6 assistants will be on the
job this fall, and it will go hard
with violators who may think they
are above the law. In the main the
hunters of Bourbon county have
been law-abiding people, and true
sportsnen who scorn to take advant-
age of the law. They are content
with a modest days sport, and are
not "pot-hunters," killing for the
mere fur of the thing.

DREAMING of Letters.

To dream of writing letters TO your

to dream of receiving letters from

To see a letter carrier denotes news

is complete the news will be good

tors, the dissolution of the Coward &
Eden establishment occasioned sno
more than passing notice. The ex-
PLANTATION, "for business reasons"
given to the newspapers, seemed suffi-
cient
Irene Hardy found herself in po-
sitiOn of increasing delicacy. Since the
day of their conversation in the tea
room Dave had been constant in his
attentions, but, true to his uitimatum,
had uttered no word that could in any
way be construed to be more or less
than platonic. She had now no doubt
that she felt for Dave that attachment
without which ceremonies are without
avail and with which ceremonies are
but ceremonies. And yet she shrank
from surrender. And she knew
that some day she must surrender.
The situation was complicated by
conditions which involved her mother
and Coward. 1t was apparent that
Conward's friendship for Mrs. Hardy
did not react to Dawes advantage.
Coward was careful to drop no word
in Irene's hearing that could be taken
as direct reflection upon Dave, but
she was conscious of an influence. a
magnetism. il almost seemed, the
whole tendency of which was to pull
her away from Eden.
Mrs. Hardy had invested practically
all her little fortune in her house. The
small sum which had been saved from
that unfortunate investment had been
eaten up in the cost of furnishing and
maintaining the home. Doctor Hardy.
