SCHOOL LUNCH IMPORTANT
University OF Iowa Extension Divi-
sion Outlines Proper Food
for School Children.

The school lunch is as important
in the equipment of Iowa's school
children as teachers and text books,
according to the University of Iowa
extension division. IN order that the
children may be better fed and bet
ter nourished the extension division
has published a bulletin on THE
School Lunch" and is ready to supply
copies to parents and others who are
anxious to see that the proper in
gradients go into the boxes which
will be opened up at noon-time in
school buildings ali over the state.
Many children of school age are
below normal in weight, and proper
Feeding can do much to correct this
In providing the, right kind of food
it is first of all necessary that the
child have at least three-fourth of
quart of milk a day, some foods
supplying iron, such as prunes, spin
ach, eggs, peas, lentils and so on,
fruit and vegetables to supply bulk
and vitamin, some proteIns, and
some energy-giving foods, as starch,
fats, and butter.
Foods, in when these different
elements are found are listed in the
bulletin, thus aiding a mother in pre-
pairing a luncheon with the elements
properly balanced. 1t is urged that
children be given three warm meals a
day, and schools should make provi-
sion for furnishing something warm
at noon, says the bulletin. The rural
school should take pains to supply
at least one warm dish. Suitable
euuipment which would enable rural
schools to do this is listed.

SHERIFF. ROBE UNDER FIRE

Polk county's sheriff's office has
become the hub or political activi-
ties.
With charges and counter charges
of "bungling" extravaganza and in
efficiency being hurled at Sheriff
Robb from many angles the sheriff
has opened a campaign against his
fees which promises to end disas-
trously for someone. But for whom
no one knows.
Robb during the past few weeks
has been criticised severely for his
actions in the investigation of the
Thorsdale murder case. The sheriff
has replied that an effort is being
made by ring" to "get him"
The latest challenge sent out by
the sheriff is an attack on the coun-
ty supervisors, claiming that certain
members have charged hundreds OF
dollars more in mileage than they
are entitled to under the law and
the sheriff also charges they are
guilty of other irregularities.
Then the supervisors learned Of
Robbs attack they asserted it was
purely political and charged the
sheriff with having contracted thou
sands of dollars in debts through
extravaganza and was angry because
the supervisors refused to accept
his bills.
Hints of custer proceedings
against the sheriff are being heard
from several quarters.
1t is rumored that evidence has
been gathered by prominent law
yer and that proceedings may be in
stituted within a short time.

JUDGE GREEN IN AUDUBON

Hon. w. r. Green, representative
in congress from the Ninth Iowa
district, and a former resident of
this city, was in Audubon Saturday
visiting his old-time friends, and
consulting with some of his constit-
uents regarding legislation in which
they were particularly interested.
While in Audubon Mr.. Green met a
large number of people and would
have liked to have met more, but he
was busy practically all day talking
matters over with the people from
all parts of the county who had
come to see him.
The people of his old home town
like to call him Judge" Green, for
he was one of the judges of the 18th
judicial district so many years. He
is looking quite we'll after eight
months of hard and constant work.
In conversation with him he stated
however, that the next few months
his work would not be so hard and
he hoped to get little rest.
Mr.. Green found things moving
along very nicely over the district.
OF course we folks out here in the
agricultural district feel the depres-
sion in business as a result of the
slump in farm product prices more
than in other parts of the country,
but from all indications better times
are ahead. The legislation in which
Mr.. Green played such a prominent
part the past three months is cal
culated to better conditions and we
may look for a change, which of
course must come gradual, but it is
coming and with it will come a wave
of prosperity for the farmers OF the
country.

HEADLIGHTS MUST
CONFORM TO LAW
INFORMATION ON ADJUSTMENTS
AND PROPER INSTALLA-
TON OF LENSES.

The law prohibiting glaring head
lights on automobiles is being strict
ly enforced throughout the state by
all state, county and municipal peace
Officers since they were placed un-
der the ban last Thursday
There are a number of things
about the law which every automo-
bile driver must know. The en-
forcement of the law is under the
direct personal supervision of w. NJ.
Colladay, superintendent of the state
automobile department. The state
highway commissions duty is to test
and pass upon all lenses offered by
manufacturers. II is glad, however,
to be of assistance in every way pos
sible to make safer the use of Iowa
highways and for this reason is glad
to make public all information it has
for the benefit of car owners.
1t emphasizes in its latest service
bulletin that focal adjustments and
proper installation of lenses are the
important things to be observed I'M
der the new law. Adjustments of
lights to meet the requirements OF
the law must be made and maintain
ed according to legal requirements.
The mere possession of a receipt or
certificate of light adjustments is
not immunity against prosecution.
The commission points out that any
person can make the adjustments
himself or have them made at a gar
age or lens testing station. but they
must be made and Kept in strict con-
formity with law.
A number of pointers for car own
ers to keep in mind are given by the
highway commission. They are:
The top of the beam of light from
a headlight must not rise above AZ
inches from the ground at rs feet
or at any point beyond In practice.
the car owner should so aim or set
his lamps that the top of the ray of
light does not rise above the level OF
the lamp. II he does this he will
comply absolutely with the letter OF
the law.
The use of a plain glass in the
headlight is impractical for the rea-
son that the lamp must be tilted for.
ward to such an extent that there is
not sufficient light on the road ahead
to make driving safe except for low
speeds.
The use of ground glass or the
| frosting over of a plain glass does
not prevent glare in the eye of the
approaching driver These methods
scatter the light badly and produce
large lighted area Immediately in
| front of the car but no driving depth
down the road. The amount of tilt
required to bring the top of the light
ray down where it is safe makes the
method impractical
Even though on the approved list,
a lens must be properly installed, in
order to produce either a satisfactory
or legal light When such lens is
placed on the approved list, instruc-
tons for installation accompany At.
The law requires that a headlight
be strong enough to be seen from a
distance 500 feet in front and thatsit
be sufficient to reveal a person, ve-
hicle or substantial object rs feet
in front of the car
Motorcycles must comply with
the law.
The law does not permit the use
of bulbs\ of greater than 32 candle
power. All lamps using 40 candle
power or over are subject to the re-
strictions of the law.

CONFERENCE NEXT WEEK

The Des Moines conference of the
Methodist church will meet in an
nual session at Red Oak next week
Rev. d. ]. Shenton, pastor of the
Audubon Methodist church, is in
charge OF some of the most import
ant committees, which necessitates
his being on hand Monday, while
the conference proper does not be-
gin until Tuesday.
Whether or not Rev. Shenton re-
turns to Audubon next year remains
with the Bishop, but it is generally
understood that unless the unfor-
seen happens, he will return. At
least that is the wish of the church
membership. Rev. Shenton has done
great deal of hard work during
his pastorate here. The results
show it. The church was never in
better shape than 1t is at this time.
There has been a substantial in
crease in membership and the fl
nances are in good condition. Rev.
Shenton is sincere and earnest and
the church will profit by his return.
The Republican hopes Bishop Stuntz
will recognize the wishes OF our peo-
Pile and send Rev. Shenton back to
continue the good work he has
started

Thu r,nnck itnfarackino rama Of

no hOoJ iCotin6 SAINT VI
baseball played in Audubon this year
took place on the local diamond last
Thursday afternoon when the two
girls teams contested for honors.
The high school girls played the
town girls in five-inning game re-
sulting in a score of 81 to 81 in
favor of the former. The game was
fast and furious and afforded the
fans no end of entertainment.
Something like 400 persons wit
messed the game. The proceeds of
the contest went TO the Woman's
Auxiliary of the American Legion.
On account of IL being press day, the
Republican representative and the
staff photographer were unable to
be out to the game, consequently we
are unable to present some of the
pictures that really should be in
print in order that futre generations
may know how we'll their mothers"
used to play ball. Be that as II may,
the game was intensely interesting
and was we'll played, regardless Of
the high score on both sides.

mourn her passing beyond so early.
May the best friend of little children

wisdom everywhere.

TRIED TO BURN BARN
Casey Farmer Arrested on Serious
Charge of Writing Threat
ening Letters.

The receipt by William Waters,
extensive land owner and Hereford
breeder, of numerous notes threat
ening his life and the destruction of
his buildings, and the finding by his
hired man of lighted candle in the
hay loft CT one of his barns, has led
to the arrest of Peter Byriel, near
Casey, whose estranged wife is
housekeeper for Waters.
The authorities investigating By
riel's possible connection with the
notes and placing of the candle in
Waters barn, are working on the
theory that Byriel sought revenge
on Waters for sheltering Mrs. By
riel
1t is known the woman's husband
has demanded that Waters turn her
and her children out of his house.
Waters is a bachelor.
The Byriels separated few weeks
ago Immediately thereafter the
threatening notes began to appear.
The notes always were found on
Monday morning. Some were found
tackled to the barn door, others be-
ing left on the porch of the house.
All were full of the most dire threats
One said Waters would be "blown
to hell' If he did NOT turn Mrs. By
riel out of his home.
Another note was accompanied by
a small wooden cross. "This can
be used to decorate your grave" the
note read.
Still another note was in a pack
age containing a knife blade and
several bullets. A skull and cross
bones were drawn on some of the
epistles. None of the notes were
signed 1t is said the hand writing
does not resemble that of Byriel.
Following the receipt of the first
of the notes. Water laid in wait one
Sunday night and took 2 shot at
some one he said he saw rrowling
about HIS buildings.
The following Sunday night note
was oft in which the sho, ting was
referred to. The writer seia be
would have to go little slow as he
did uot want to get shot.
Tho climax was reached when a
young man named Erickson employ
cd by Waters, found lighted carjle
in hay loft. Il was on saucer
which was Lrneath an overturned
bushel basket The cara'e had
burned down to about three 'nrhes
in length
The candle was found at alb ut
5.S0 in the Tlo~,Dng whe,, the fern
hand went to the hay loft TO get hay
for the horses
Byriel was crested while working
with a threshing crew north CT
Casey. He was taken TO the county
Jail and given several grillings
He maintains his innocence re-
garding the notes and says that on
the nights the notes were left at the
Waters home he was at farm near
Casey.
Inquiry by the authorities SEEM
ingly corroborate this.
