aged by Fire Sunday
Night.

Jewell, Iowa, Aug. l. Especially -
The new drug store located in the Sny'
der building on the corner, was dam
aged by smoke and water last night
caused by gas explosion in the base
ment. The estimated damage to stock
and fixtures was $3.50 and to the
building 500, both Of which are fully
covered by insurance.
The drug store was owned by w. f.
Paradise. All his new fixtures and the
soda fountain were badly damaged. F.
G. Snyder, of Webster City, owned the
building. There was no one in the
store Mt the time Of the explosion ex-
cept Mr.. Paradise, who was about to
lock up. The conclusion broke all the
plate glass out of the front OF the store
and so dazed Mr.. Paradise that he
could hardly find his way out. The
Jewell fire department responded to
q call and saved the building and stock

FARL EY BEATS
SCHOOL AGAIN
Bond Issue Proposition for
new Building Submitted
Four Times and
Fails.
WOMEN VOTE YES
Squabble Over Amount Ends
in Compromise; Also
=. Beaten.
H..
(By The Associated press.)

Farley, Iowa, Avg. 1.-FOr the fourth
time the voters of Farley have tunred
down proposal to issue school bonds
for the purpose Of erecting public
school building
Count Gibbs, secretary Of the indie
pendent School District of Farley, gives
the history of the case as follows:
Fire of unknown origin destroyed the
brick veneer school building in Deem
her, 1920. Arrangements were made
for the use of the Woodman hall,
which would accommodate the high
school, and after the new year they
occupied these quarters to the end of
the school year.
Use Old Church.
The grades of the school were ac-
cOmmOdated in the old Presbyterian
church building, the primary grades be-
ing assigned to the kitchen of the
church and thu higher grades being
given the auditorium, which for the
time being was partitiOned off into ten
frame divisions. All the properties
were heated with stoves, there was no
city water, no toilets, and both build
ings required the use Of artificial light
much Of the time in winter.
Defeat Bond Issue.
The $1,000 insurance on the de-
stroyed school building being insuffi-
cient to build a new schoolhouse. the
people interested circulated a petition
for a $4,000 bond issue. This was de-
feated when placed before the voters.
A second attempt was made to raise
necessary funds through bond issue,
this time for $4,000, and this failed
also when put to vote.
Beat Another.
A division Of opinion on the amount
likely to carry at an election. some be-
lieving $4,000 the proper figure and
others thinking $4,000 more likely to
carry, resulted in compromise at W.
500. This third proposition also failed
Mt an election. Then, without delay,
those realizing the need Of school
building pushed for a $4,000 bond is
sue. A large interest was manifest
md Mt the fourth election in seven
months 429 voters appeared and the
vote when counted showed plurality
of fifteen against the bond issue.
"All through the elections-or nj
least the last three-the wOmen's vote
in each and every case showed a major
ity for the school," says Mr.. Gibbs.

Welcome Rain ut Last.

A welcome rain began falling IN
Webster City and this vicinity about
midnight last night and has been fall
ing ever since. 1t is not heavy rain
but is steady and every drop is going
into the ground. The pastures and the
corn were badly in need Of 1t. 1T Will
probably he the means Of saving the
corn crop hereabouts. Some little corn
was fired. 1t is said by some farmers
that the crop will not be as heavy as
usnal. due to the extremely not
weather. which prevented the forma-
t,on Of ears on many of the stalks.
