There are few Of the Caucasian raee

Il stands TO reason that when a writer
endeavors to espOuse the cause Of
saints like Frederick DOuglass, Cuum-
nell, Price, Washington, Dunbar and
Healing, such a writer must step softly
in shoes prepared to tramp over holy
ground.
In reeounting some names of the
present era, names Of those whose feet
tread lightly the earth plane we find
both facility and the pleasure of clear
ing them Of selishness before their
names are read out in the great court
of public opinion.
The reader must remember that the
list would indeed be very great, did we
mention the hundreds, who for self
laudation, and the cheap praise of men
handy compliments by using up a lot
Of energy for no other purpose than
to attract attention to themselves.
Such selfish importance must be forgot
ten because they are not to be
accredited as worth the effort.
1t is of the worth while we would
write.
Mr.. Jesse Binga would establish a

CHARLES E. SAMUELS
mkRRIES MRS. IONA
B0WLES, THURSDAY

EATON, O., Sept. 4.-"Better cut
that OUT and similar expressions OF
cautioning character were voiced by
friends of County Treasurer Charles
E. SamuelS when he freely and openly
passed out cigars at the treasurer's
office here Friday.
His friends are aware that he is a
candidate for second term and they
could see nothing but impending
trouble in the passing out of smokes"
as none was able to connect the pre-
mature christmas gift" with any
thing else than the campaign. Some
even faltered in accepting the entic-
ing Havanas.
Admitting that he was fully aware
of the law prohibiting giving away of
cigars and other sundries in political
campaigns, the treasurer lifted a
mighty load off the minds of his
friends when, with broad smile and
a real-fof-sure blush, he let it out that
he had been married Thursday.
The marriage took place in Eaton
late Thursday afternoon, after office
hours, and Mrs. Iona Bowles, of New
Paris, was the bride. The knot was
tied by the Rev. A. J. Bussard in the
Methodist church. Several relatives

and Mrs. Frank Murphy and daughter,
Mary; Miss Mary Bowles, and Francis
Murphy, all of New Paris.
Treasurer Samuels and Mrs. Samu-
els will make their home in New Paris,
where both have always resided. Mrs.
Samuels has taught music in the New
Paris and Jefferson township schools
the last several years. In addition to
music, she expects to teach other
studies in the schools in New Paris
the coming year. She is a daughter Of
Mr.. and Mrs. Leander Marshall, of
New Paris.
In obtaining the marriage license

The bride gave her age as 40.

CONSOLIDATION
CONTINUED from Page One,

The present school tax rate in Cam.
bridge City is SO cents, which yields
a revenue Of 1000, or approximately
$4,000 more than the towns antici.
pated share of the cost of operating
the schools under the proposed con.
solidation plan. If the school tax rate
in the town was increased from So
cents to 81, there would be a revenue
sufficient to meet the towns actual
share Of school operating costs, but
the schools must be operated the
present school term under the present
rate of SIS cents, which would leave a
deficit of about $4,000.
Would Mean Vote Of $1.4o.
Revenue under the increased rate
would not be available until next June
SO the rate increase would have to be
large enough 10 provide for school ex.
penses the following year and to
liquidate the deficit which would be
incurred this school year. This would
mean a tax rate Of about $1.40 for the
town of Cambridge City, and that is
prohibitive"
Mr.. Williams stated that the pres
ent school rate for Jackson towns ship
was II cents. He said that under the
plan of school consolidation the rate
in the township would have to be in
creased to 80 cents.
Mr.. Williams advocates a consolida.
ton of schools Of the town and town
ship under a different plan, that OF
transferring the management Of the
schools to the township trustee. He
says such action can be taken by the
filing of a petition signed by the ma
jority Of the freeholders Of Cambridge
City, or by the enactment of an ord
nance, authorizing such action. by the
town board
The county superintendent contends
that such plan would be the most
economical one as the tax for the
maintenance of the consolidated
schools could be raised on the com
bined taxable valuations Of the town
and township, totalling 100000. A
AZ cent tax rate on that valuation
would provide the required 100000
operating revenue, he pointed out.
But How About Township
While a AZ cent levy would be OF
advantage to the Cambridge City tax
payers, being almost 81 less than the
anticipated rate under the present
consolidation system, the fact remains
that the taxpayers Of the township
might not find it so attractive, as 1t
would mean an increase Of 80 cents
over the present levy and IL cents
more than the anticipated township
rate under the consolidation plan the
voters Of the town and township ap'
proved at a special election held last
fall.
A. H. Hines, superintendent of the
Cambridge City schools, Saturday in
letter to the Palladium assured the
teachers of Jackson township that
they will be paid their salary monthly
by the joint school board. They will
be paid according to the new wage
scale, he said.

had been attached the journey was re-
sumed. Pulling the partly submerged
boat is a slow task, officials report,
and it may be many hours before
Delawre breakwater is reached.
Briefly, but revealing the desperate
plight of the imprisoned men, Chief
Beavers report tells of the accident
and the work of rescue. 1t dlscloses
thta it was largely through the work
of the imprisoned men under the direc-
ton of Lieutenant Commander Charles
NJ. Cooke, Jr., that they were saved
and that it was their own desperate
efforts and not a telephone buoy, as
first reported, thta attracted attention
of the rescuing ships. The crew
learned that the stern of their ship
was above water.
Goused Hole Through Hull.
This supplied a ray of hope and
working as they never worked before
they gouged a small hole through the
iron hull. To do this they climbed up
the side Of the ship, standing at an
angle of about 60 degrees.
Through this hole they thrust a
mole a sailors white undershirt tied
to if. and wigwagged signals of dis
tress which were seen by the steam
ship Alanthus, the first vessel to
pass. q hours later. The report Of
the Beaver shows that the accident
occurred at 2 D. m. Wednesday. With
the boat at the bottom in 16S feet OF
water, the men worked desperately.
Some of the water was expelled,
and the stern rose slowly, but the
storage batteries had been flooded, re-
leasing chlorine fumes, the same
gas that was released from tanks by
the Germans in their first gas attacks
in the world war.
Fumes Drive Crew Away
The sickening fumes drove the
crew from the compartments. With
the batteries flooded, they presumably
were forced to work practically in
darkness, aided only by small flash
lights. The men worked in two-min-
ute relays.
They could not stand it for longer
period. The chlorine sank to the
bowl of the ship, but there was no
fresh air, and the oxygen was rapidly
being exhausted. Sweating and pant
ing. the men worked at the hull. 1t
was slow work. but finally hole was
made and a thin trickle Of fresh air
floated in.
"Consider saving personnel was
splendid feat. Slightest mistake after
accident on part Of officers would
have resulted loss of some or ALL.
tersely said the Beaver report.
Say Negligence Was Cause
Members of the crew of a destroyer
which arrived at the Philadelphia
navy yard after having been at the
scene of the disaster declared the &C
cident was due to negligence on the
part of a member of the crew Of the
SIS. Officers would say nothing, re-
ferrine interviewers to Washington.
After n large hole had been drilled in
the outstanding stern of the submar-
inc by Grace and McWilliams, Of the
General Goethals, and the men were

Like the Tea Order
The Yankees rather took to the
idea of serving tea in the middle of
afternoon session of the conference.
and most of them acquired a decided
taste for the popular English bever,
age before the meetings were over.
English tea has distinctive features
that one must get used to before he
can enjoy it. The Americans got over
the introduction bravely, and even
asked for a second cup.
Friends generally feel that the con-
ference was successful. 1t showed
that the aims of the society have not
been changed by the war, and that
the relief work now being done on the
continent has added greatly to the
general esteem in which the Friends
are held.
There were disagreements, but
none of them important enough to
cause a chism, and the greatest good
will prevailed among the representa-
tives of the various nations present.

something of God which is in all men
to triumph over hatred and injustice
