The main building is 16 stories high,
surmounted by a tower az feet square
and rising 393 feet from the street
level. This tower will contain clock
with dials on four sides, each 20 feet in
diameter and will be surrnounted by a
searchlight lantern 9 feet in diameter.
The building is covered with enamel
finish terra Gotta on all four sides. It

The Democratic mass meeting al

man w. L. Parsons, with ]. S. Lon,

w. r. Jones that pledges the new
administration to program OF
street improvement, play ground en-
largement and better fire protection.
An amendment to Mr.. Zones reso-
luton was made by Mr.. w. n. Ev-
erett to the effect that nothing in
this resolution shall take preced-
ence over the enlargement and de-
velopment of the city schools" The
amended resolution was unanimous

meeting. ct is printed in full fur

Next Mr.. Everett made motion
that all persons present, men and
women, VINO otherWi1c would lie ca
titled to vote in Tie clction lad
they registered, be allowed 10 have
a vote in this convention. 1t was
adopted. The reason for this mo-
ton is because only seven women
had registered for this town cleo
ton. Tn books were open from
April 10th to 23rd, but strange to
say practically all the women of
the town had overlooked the fact
that they must register in order to
vote. They supposed that the reg
istration for the bond election sew
eral weeks ago was sufficient; but
inasmuch as that election was can
celled, their registration went for
naught. The Post-Dispatch publish !

the town election and notifying the
people about the period for rgistra-

1t may be recognized for an institu-

among the many glories which the

cherish as reflected by its distinguish
ed founder, the fact that to Thomas
Jeerson, above all men, the American

Coupled with the hearty congratu-
