lust BURROWS OF ANIMALS
Mystery of What Was Known as the
"Devil's Corkscrews' Has Been
Considered Solved.

OF the many fossils which have
come out of the mountains and plains
of the West, few have excited wider
interest than the devils corkscrew,"
found In rocks of the Miocene period,
in northwestern Nebraska. They are
usually white, and stand out clearly
against the bluff background of the
rock which incloses them, often at
tanning a length of Is feet, with many
twists and turns, ending at times in
a large bulb, with occasional side
passages. When first discovered II
was thought that these gigantic cork.
screws" were huge petrified vines or
roots of some strange plant. Study of
the "corkscrews," however, failed to
reveal any traces of plant structure.
the badger was found in large bulb
near the end Of the "corkscrew," and
bones Of small camel and small deer
were found In others. After that Il
was discovered that many of them
contained bones of a small burrowing
animal about the size of the western
prairie dog. Excavation of actual re-
cent prairie dog burrows, after filling
them with thin plaster Of paris,
showed an interesting fact; the bur-
rows Of the prairie dog and the pre-
historic "corkscrews" were closely
similar. The mystery is considered
solved.

The Apple OF Eden.

From time immemorial the apple
has been blamed for being the cause
OF mans downfall in the garden of
Eden. We have even gone so far as
TO call our Adams apple by that name
in memory of the incident.
As a matter Of fact, the word apple
does not appear in that part of Gene
sis treating with the Garden OF Eden.
the fruit Of the tree" being the words
always used. The fallacy arose from
the fact that the word apple has In
many languages the general meaning
OF fruit and that before an English
translation of the Bible was permitted
the story was Incorrectly spread by
ignorant ehurchmen, and thus took
root too deeply 10 be eradicated.

SCHOOL SITUATION IN IOWA

1t may be of interest to the tax
payers of the Independent School Dis
trict of Manchester to learn Of the
financial conditions of so large a
percent. of the school districts in Iowa
at this time Some time ago E. E.
Lindsay of the University of Iowa,
sent out a QUESTIONABLE to all school
boards, and from these missionaries
he makes the following statement:
THE returns on the financial ques-
tionnaire sent in by school boards
some time ago for cities spending from
s25 900 to $4,000 per year on their
schools were as follows:
1.-THE total school expense for 1920
q gave a median per pupil amount OF
SCI. 20. The median deficit April y5th
1921, is 25 per cent, of the total school
expense. Forty-four per cent. of the
schools were running on borrowed
money January LIST, 1921. In Al per
cent of the schools the April money
will not clear up the deficit and per-
nit of fresh start"
In Manchester the total expense pei
pupil is S4S.47, as against $61.20, which

CHAS. REIGELSBERGER

Charles Reigelsberger, resident Of
Manchester in an early day, passed
away at sanitarium in Elgin, Ill,
Saturday, February Goth, 1921, and this
wednesday, morning the remains
were brought to Manchester and laid
to rest in the family lot in ST. Mary's
cemetery.
Mr.. Reigelsberger was born in Bad
en-, Germany. in 1912. When he was
a young man he came to the United
States At the age of 81 he came west
and located at Freeport. Illinois, where
he was united in marriage with Miss
Maria Peters. Mrs. Reigelsberger pass
ed away in Manchester in 1887, and
Manchester Democrat. [volume] (Manchester, Iowa) 1875-1930, 1921-03-02

is the average for the schools report
ing. The Manchester Independent dis
trict is not only able to honor it's
checks issued the teachers and others,
but has on hand $25 900 in the general
fund and 1900 in the school house
building fund. And best of all the
tax payers of the district were not OBJ
liged to pay as high a tax levy as
many Of the district which are now
out of funds.
One Of the most thankless jobs on
earth is that of the members of the
school boards. Many are quick to
criticise public officials, but we hon
estly believe the board members of the
Independent School District of Man
chester are deserving of the credit
for the excellent financial condition
Of the district.
