tary,
This board has few duties, but
these few are important when called
upon 70 be exercised: the selecting
of school books and acting on final
appeals in cases of consolidation. AS
the school book question cannot be
opened before 1923, and with low
prices and general depression there
will probably be no new projects for
consolidation until prosperity re-
turns in measure, the boards duties
will probably not be arduous for
some time.
AZ this meeting the board placed
a new book on the list. Iowa State
Geography, small inexpensive book
prepared for 9Th, 7th and Sth grade
pupils. Miss Aitchison, Of the State
Teachers college, an expert in her
line, is the author. As one has said:
II is hoped that this little geography
of Iowa may give those who use 1t
a deeper appreciation of and a great
err love for the state, its beauties and
its possibilities.

HAY FAMILY NOT IN WANT

Last week The Republican printed
an item concerning the parents of
Merle Hay, of Glidden. 1t had ref
erence to their financial condition,
and was credited 10 Mr.. Hungerford,
Of Carroll.
This information appears to be in
correct, according 20 relatives resid-
ing in Audubon county, some OF
whom were in the city Saturday to
tell us about it.
Merle Hay was Iowa's first soldier
to die in the World war, and his bur-
ial was attended by several thousand
people little more than week ago
at his old home town OF Glidden.
The story that the parents have
been forced to live in house boat is
entirely untrue, and the statement
that Mrs. Hay is compelled to bend
over a washtub" to gain living for
herself and husband, is also incor-
rect. The family lived in Glidden
until recently. when they sold their
residence in that ,own and moved
onto a farm near Ralston. There are
two other children in the family,
still living. married son and a mar
ried daughter, so Merle was not
their only support, as was claimed.
We know Mr.. Hungerford person
ally and know that he would not be
responsible for such an article un-
less he had been given such infor-
nation. We are pleased, however,
to make this correction and to know
that che parents OF the boy who
made the supreme sacrifice, are in
at least moderate circumstances and
able to take care of themselves.

where they will be in camp for the
next ten days.
More than 1000 officers and en-
listed men from "a cities and towns
in Iowa are assembled at Camp
Dodge for the opening of the Iowa
National Guard encampment The
outstanding feature OF the present
encampment is It's difference from
the national guard camps of pre-
war days. Barring the absence of
uniforms in few of the individual
cases, the camp has almost the as
pect Of regular army encampment.
In the assembling of the guards
men there was little confusion yes
terady which marked the sold-time
guard camp. The various troops
and, companies we're quickly assign
ed TO their quarters as they arrived
and within an hour after their ar
rival each unit was ready for drill
and other duty.
The Audubon unit was the last to
be organized in the state and they
had not received all of their equip
ment when they left. However, they
will be supplied while at Des Moines
and will bring much of their equip
ment with them on their return.
The company will remain until the
close of the camp on August Gath.

ment reached at a conference be-
tween President Harding and repub-
lican leaders of the house to effect
sweeping slashes in revenue and APP
preparation estimates.
A program was framed calling for
a revenue bill which will raise only
$3,075, 100000 from internal taxa
ton, or reduction of $495, 0O00, 90
from the total of $3.50, 900, 900
which, according to the latest treas
ury estimates, would be the yield Of
the present law during the fiscal
year 1922.
The total to be raised from all
sources. including customs and mis-
cellaneous, but not including postal
receipts, will be S4,034, 900, 900, or
reduction of $4,000. 000 from

by Secretary Of the Treasury Mel
Ion in his statement TO the house
ways and means committee last

A PROCLAMATION
To the People Of Iowa I:

10 the feople OF IOWA
The management OF the State Fair
will again offer from August oath to
September I'd inclusive the greatest
exhibition of its character that will
be assembled in the United States
during the year. Agriculture, manu-
features, science, industry, art, lit
erature, all the diversified depart
ments of human activity will con-
tribute their highest achievements
for the entertainment, the instruc-
ton, and the Improvement of the
public The exposition will be lib
eral education in itself, and every
monwealth should embrace the in
valuable advantages there rendered
available. Everywhere throughout
the country is recognized as occu-
plying the foremost position among
similar enterprises, and the loftiest
ambition of our sister States is to
approximate in some measure to the
unrivaled eminence 1t has attained.
The Fair is the common property
OF all our people, and it Is essential
ly an institution of the State as the
College at Ames or the University at
Iowa City. Every citizen must ex-
perience genuine interest in its
prosperity, and profound satisfac-
ton in its progress, / invite all loyal
Iowans to manifest that interest by
visiting the exhibition and to en-
nance that satisfaction by enjoying
its excellence.

the best"

well. hardly" was the reply.
you see, Great Britain is as determ-
ined as ever 20 control the seas, and
she is missing no opportunity to en-
barrass us. We can not compete
with her in the granting of subsi-
dies, for the British board of con-
troll can go us one better every time,
while there is not enough popular
feeling for an American marine yet
developed. British cotton manufac-
turers have recently refused to take
cotton from this country carried in
American ships, and British influ-
ences have prevented us from secur-
ing freights from foreign ports. And
Great Britain is anxious to corner
the oil supply of tine world so that
she can embarrass our oil-burning
boats. Perhaps the best we can do
now is to bark back to the policy OF
1874 and impose discriminatory
rates on goods brought to this coun-
try in foreign ships. With that pur-
pose in view Senator Jones of Wash
ington has introduced an amend
ment to the Fordney tariff bill
which should have the support of the
country, and which VIII cause nc
drain on the treasury. but will, OF
the contrary. help II. Then we may
hope once more to see the American
flag in every port.

GIVEN A CLEAN RECORD

The senate privileges and elections
committee voted, 8 to 4, at Wash
ington Monday, to exonerate Sem
ator Truman III. Newberry Of Mich
igan from charges that he 'purchas-
ed his election TO the senate in
1918.
The committee declared Henry
Ford's accusations against Senator
Newberry completely unsustained'
and recommended prompt dismissal
OF the contest. Il reported that Mr..
Newberry's expenditures totalled
1885, 900, which 1t justified on the
ground that the senator was COM
PEELED to spend large sums of money
in publicity to-. offset the fact that
Mr.. Ford's name was familiar
throughout the state.
None OF the money was spent cor
ruptly, the committee held. Further
more, It was found that Mr.. Newber-
ry, serving in the navy during the
campaign, knew nothing OF the ex-
penditures made In his behalf.
Democratic members of the COM
mittee are preparing minority re-
port. Prospects are that a spirited
fight will ensue when the senate Is
asked to ratify the majority report.
Several republican senator's, perhaps
dozen ARE threatening to line up
with the democrats in an effort to
unseat Mr., Newberry.

NEARLY LOST HIS LIFE

Jack Schultz, the pharmacist at
the Frick Drug store, returned Sun
day from his two-weeks' vacation at
the lakes in northern Iowa. He had
quite a little experience about ten
days ago that he would not care to
repeat. One beautiful Sunday after
noon he was out swimming in the
lake and went to dive from spring
board He shot down with great
deal of force and struck bottom a
little sooner than he expected. This
knocked the wind out of him and he
was rendered almost helpless. He
came to the surface for the second
time, when he gave the signal OF
distress. He was rescued from the
bottom of the lake by another party
before coming up for the third and
fatal time. 1t took several hours TO
bring him back to life. Jack says
he will not soon forget that exper-
fence and II he is going to do any
more diving he will do It in bath
tub.
