Annual Report of the Clerk of
Joint School District Number s,
EdgertOn and Fulton. Annual Meet
ing Tuesday, July 5, 1921.
Ladies and Gentlemen:
The School Board of this Joint
School District comes to you at this
time with its report of the conduct
of our schools for the past school
year, an accounting of the receipts
and expenditures, and a statement
of the requirements for the school
year 1922, confident that our
duties have been faithfully perform
ed, and that you have reason to be
proud of our schools, loyal to the
principles of public education upon
which they are broadly founded, and
united in the hope that our young
people shall continue to enjoy the
blessings of an education to which
they are entitled as the future citi-
zens of this commonwealth.
The roll call of the members of
dashboard for the past twelve months
shows most gratifying interest on
the part of those whom you have
chosen to administer the schools. Full
attendance at the meetings of the
board has been the rule. Each case
of absence recorded on the minutes
of these meetings was caused by the
fact that the absentee was out of
town. Each member has devoted his
time and study, and has given his
aid and thought to our work in a
manner which shows a depth of gen.
uine interest in the work. We have
been united in purpose, and actuated
by spirit of cooperation and de-
sire to maintain the high standards
attained by our schools in previous
years. The cooperation of our school
superintendent, Fred J. Holt has been
fully appreciated, and I am sure that
it is the wish of the board, the pat
IRONS, and the school children of this
Joint School District to reflect this
cooperation to our Superintendent
that the work of Fred ]. Holt will be

MISSING BOYS
ARE SOUGHT FOR

Stricken with the wanderlust which
at some time or another makes every
boy want to cut all his home ties and
strike out to see the world far away
from his own home town, Elmer Hart
ford, Is year old Whittier boy, left
his home June 20 and has not been
heard from since, according to a let
ter received today at the sheriff's Of
flee in which the frantic mother ap-
peals to the sheriff's force to aid her
in finding the wandering boy
The lad is described as being rather
large for his age, weighing about lt5
pounds, has light brown eyes anC
brown hair. When he left home he
wore blue suit with long trousers,
new tan shoes and new gray tweed
cap. He is believed to have left in
company with Elmer Thaeker, also
Is, but who looks much older. The
Thaecker boy wore a brown suit.
Both Of the boys could pass easily
as being.20 years old. the mother says,
and she believes that should they have
wandered into Imperial Valley in the
course of their explorations of un-
known worlds, that both probably
would seek work on dairy farm as
both are experienced mixers.
Relatives of both of the lads are in
urgent need of money and are anxious
to find the wanderers. The Hartford
boys father is i'll and his baby sister
cries continuously for him to return,
the griefstricken mother says, and she
will be forever grateful to anyone who
may know anything of the where
aObuts of her son.
Information regarding the boys
should be sent to Mrs. T. E. Hartford,
Box 81, Whittier, Calf.

Revive Ancient Customs
as Part of Inaugural Cere-

(By Associated Press,

HONOLULU, T. H., July ia
strikingly impressive and colorful re-
vival of ancient Hawaiin customs. suck,
as is being planned as part of the
entertainment of delegates to the
Press Congress of the World here in
October, was one of the features of
the Inauguration here of Wallace
Rider harrington, business manager
of the Honolulu Star Bulletin, as Gov.
ernor of Hawaii.
Members Of the Sons and Daughters
of Hawaiian Warriors, a leading
Hawaiian society, greeted the new
Governor as he entered the capital,
and, amid the singing of Hawaiian
melodies, bedecked him with "leis," or
flower wreaths, and strew blossoms
in his path.
Many ancient relics, including wea-
pons and articles of regalia, were used
in the ceremony. There were great
feather cloaks and capes of red, yell
low and orange, many of them price
less and helmets and "leis," of the
same material rarely seen outside Of
museums. Two warriors with crossed
spears, blocked the new governors
path as he entered the capital, and it
was not until he had answered certain
questions put to him in Hawaiian by
the regent Of the society that he Wss
allowed to proceed. 1t was merely 4
revival of an ancient Hawaiian Gus
tom, yet it served to make the occasion
the most typically Hawaiian welcome
ever extended an executive of the tor
ritory.
Aside from his duties as executive
Gov. harrington will continue as the
chairman Of the Hawaiian committee
in charge Of local arrangements for
the welcome and entertainment of the
delegates to the Press Congress. Far
rington returned this morning to the
mainland, and while away conferred
with DR.. Walter Williams, dean of the
school of journalism of the University
of Missouri, and president of the
Press congress, regarding the big
meeting of newspaper men to be held

BABY GUY IS

DIVORCE
|SS j {
Attorneys for Wife Big New
York Banker Will Endeav-
or Prove Him Father of
Her Child.
(By Associated Eress)

POUGHKEEPSIE, N. Y, July l5.-
Counsel for Mrs. Anne Urquhardt
Stillman today will fire what they con-
slider their most telling shot OF the
divorce suit brought by James A. Still
man against his wife.
Testimony to show that during jan
uary, 1918, Stillman was with Mrs.
Stillman at Pleasantville, N. Y, and
to all appearances ''an affectionate
husband" will be given by II. Phelps
Clawson, Buffalo society man and
amateur poet, friend Of both Still.
mans.
Baby Guy Stillman. whose rater-
nifty remains the only live issue in
the case, was born ir November, 1918.
Clawson will testify that he was a
guest at 'Mondanne" the Stillman's 5
Pleasantville home, Jan. 1, and 81,
1918. On two of these dates he says,
the banker remained over night with
his wife. A letter written to his moth
er on Jan. 27, 1918, giving gossip of
"Mondanne" and the Stillman's will
substantiate his statements Mrs. Still
mans counsel declares.
Mrs. Stillman's attorneys are in
clined to stress the significance OF
these dates. Now that Stillman is not
to deny his wife's accusations Of in
fidelity on his part, his counsel is ex-
pected to make the paternity of the
baby, Guy, the real issue of the re-
mainder of the trial. and the bankers
lawyers are expected to contend that
he had no relations with his wife dur
ing the year before Guy was born
Despite apparent efforts of Still
mans counsel to prevent further
exposures by stating that they would
not deny charges of intidelity against
the banker, Mrs. Stillman's attorneys
plan to submit in complete detail the
evidence they have gathered against
the multimillonaire, it was said.
The bankers startling concession
was made after witnesses had testi-
fed that Stllman and Mrs. Leeds
had lived together in "love nest" at
GA East Eighty-siXth street and that
the child, Jay Leeds, was born to
them there. 1t was also charged that
they lived together in other places.
Further evidence was intended to
show that Stillman used the name of
Franklin H. Leeds on auto license ap-
plications and other documents and
that he maintained bank account for
Mrs. Leeds.
Just before adjournment Col. Will
liam Rand, chief counsel for the fin
ancier, objected to the introduction of
further evidence as to Stillman's in
fidelity, saying that the evidence al
ready submitted would not be disput-
ed or contradicted. Referee Gleason,
however, ruled that the defense would
continue the presentation of evidence.
