TING EXERCISES

The Carson Valley Rebekah lodge
Joined with the Gardnerville lodge of
Odd Fellows Monday evening in cele-
brating the 65 anniversary of the
founding of the order of Rebekahs.
A program of music and brief
history of the order occupied the first
part of the evening. Mrs. A. Y. Wer-
ner. President of the Rebekah lodges
OF Nevada, told of the early struggles
Of the order, and how, although 1t was
not looked upon with favor by some of
the leading Odd Fellows, its growth
was quite rapid. Then an effort was
made to declare the Rebekah degree
as illegal but consequent action was
taken favorable to the degree and
since that date has fiourished in all
parts of the civilized world. The Re-
bekah decree is closely allied with
Odd Fellowship and the ladies give
much valuable assistance in charity
and other work peculiar to Odd Fell
lowship.
Following the adrdess by the Presi-
dent an hour or more was spent play
ing games. after which refreshments
were served in the dining hall. The

OUT FOR OFFICE

L. P. Jacobsen, present member of

announces his candidacy for reject
ion as Republican for long term COM
missioner. Mr.. Jacobsen is young
man of exceedingly energetic nature
and has made an excellent member
Of the board. He has been a progress
i've without being radical, he has stood
for advancement without loosing sight
of the economical side the question.
He does not believe in economy to the
extent of becoming a detriment to the
practical administration of county af-
fairs. He is believer in good roads
and has backed all movements in this
respect and he is to be heartily COM
mended for his activity along these
lines.
Mr.. Jacobsen is quite an extensive
property holder and it is his ambition
to hold down the tax rate to the lowest
practical point. He is interested in
this from his own point of view as
well as those of his neighbor.
In the many matters that come be-
fore the board, he is always just, al
ways ready to hear both sides of all
questions and desire to serve the
majority when they are right bnt not
when In his estimation they are
wrong.
The voters of Douglas county will
make no mistake in re-electing Mr..
Jacobsen as member of fhe hoard

Highway Bid
Was Rejected
HIGHWAY COMMISSION WILL RE.
ADVERTISE FOR BIDS AND
HOPE FOR RESULTS

The proposed highway project from
Carriers Station to Double Spring
summit has been delayed because of
the fact that the one bid received by
the State Highway Commission was
far above the engineers estimate and
1t was rejected. The contract will be
readvertised in hopes OF completing
the piece OF road this fall.
The road from Carriers Station to
Double Spring summit Is the one bad
piece Of road between Minden and
the territory south of this point and
during winter storms closes this route
TO freight hauling to Smith and Ante
lope valleys. Business men of both
Gardnerville and Minden as we'll as
those residing in the territory served
by this road are exceedingly anxious
to see the highway completed before
winter sets in. 1t requires about three
miles of new road to overcome the
present deplorable conditions.

OFFICERS VICTIMS
OF PRACTICAL JOKE

Prohibition inforcement officers
recently got busy in Mineral county
says the Yerington Times. They had
information that still was In opera
tion on a ranch. about twenty-five
miles from Nina. They also learned
that a former resident of Yerington
was interested in the still. Federal
officers met the Yerington man in
Nina and told him they were looking
for place to pasture stock. saying
they were told the Yerington man had
some pasture land with water In It
near Nina. The Yerington man
tumbled and said, sure. I've got just
the pasture land you want; jump into
my car and I'll take you out there"
Convinced that they would find the
still hidden somewhere on the ranch,
the sleuths got into the car. After
riding several hours over a very
rough country they finally arrived at a
dismal stretch of rocks and sagebrush.
There was water hole, a cabin and
a few fence posts stuck In the ground.
After looking around and bargaining
for the use of the ranch, the supposed
owner said he wanted to see a neigh
Dor who lived "just over the hill," got
into his car. saying he would return
shortly and take his guests back to
Nina. Well, he drove of and left the
booze hunters. After long and
hungry wait, the officers were obliged
to hike 1t 1t Nina. The day was hot,
and the road was long. rough and dry.
and when they finally reached Nina,
they were not only tired. but they
were hot In every sense OF the word.
The first person they met on the
street was the Yerington man, who
greeted them cordially and said /:
well. what do you think Of my pas
ture? 1t is a pretty good place to
pasture stock, but | am afraid its too
dry even for a prohibition detective,
err" And the officers realized that
they had been stung.

Neuada Leads
In School Work
SPEND MORE MONEY PER PUPIL
THAN ANY OTHER STATE
IN UNION

In the number of teachers employ
ed. In the value of buildings and
equipment. in the variety and COM
pletion of courses ordered and in the
amount of money spent per pupil, Ne
vada leads all other states in the
Union.
The interest of the Nevada people
In high schoo! education is evidenced
by the great increase within the past
few years In expenditure for newly
equipped buildings and facilities for
teaching the so-called practical sub
jects of manual training. domestic
science. agriculture. commercial
courses. etc. and by the large in
crease In the number of pupils enter
ing the high schools. In 1888 the
four-year high schools of Nevada
enrolled 1.72S pupils. and graduated
1877, or ia per cent. In 1920 the
enrolment was 1898 and the number
OF graduate was 237, OF 1875 per cent.
The increase In the number OF grad
mates in 1890 over the number In
1888 was 40. or 20 per cent In
proportion to population, the number
Of pupils enrolled in high schools Is
comparatively high. being about 2 per
cent of the states population. How
ever, because OF the fact that the
population is very sparse and the
centers Of population are widely
scattered the actual number enrolled
In any of the high schools Except
Reno) is small when compared with
the more populous states. Elko
county, In order to make her county
high schools available to all her
young men and women has authoriz-
ed domitories to be built and main
tained at the county's expense.
In providing a high school eduea-
tion for her young men and young
women the various counties spend an
average of $3.50 a year for each pupil.
Practically all high school support
Is from the counties or districts in
which the respective schools are To-
Gated. In cases where the county
rate has been made sufficiently high
the state pays the high schools $25
year per pupil to aid in maintaining
the schools.
Besides the general cultural value
and the satisfaction that a high school
education affords, the Nevada boys
nd girls hive learned that high school
education pays in large returns in
dollars and cents for the time one
spends In attendance upon the high
school.
