tended a special hearing on the sub
ject of the bond issue of the White
water school, in the commissioners
room of the school house, Friday

the hearing the taxpayers and remon-
strators Of the township, who are ad-
vocating' the re-advertising of the spe-
cifications for the school, with a view
to letting the contract at a lower
price than before, the contractors,
who had the general, plumbing and
heating contracts, and the trustees
and advisory board of the township.
The trustees and advisory board
and the demonstrators of the township
were one in their demand that the
contract be let again. The contract
ors, John Niewoehner, Harry Pinnicl1
and Rudolph Behringer presented argu-
ments against letting the contracts
again, saying that the price of ma.
terials and labor had not decreased
to any extent since the contract was
let in July, 1921.

was IL, a lovely girl of much charm.

appeared like a light across those

Are YOU a Dryad or an Dread
wandering here?" After this first
meeting they saw little of one an
other for six years. Then the young
poet escorted the fair one, brides
maid, at the wedding of her sister
Louisa to Alfred's brother Charles.
From that day friendship quickly
ripened to deep affection, but after
three years, as there seemed to be
no prospect of marriage-Alfred's
income being too small for the
greatest of all ventures-commun
cation between the lovers was for
hidden. There were ten long years
of separation before the engage
ment was revived. This was in the
spring of 1850; in June the patient
pair were happily made one.-From
