conveniences are concerned. The floor
space is practically as large as that
of the Coliseum floor and lacks only il

enough to accommodate from $50 to
200 persons in entertainments.

room, Woodworking room, wood
working room, auditorium and gym
nasium. On the lower floor are the
complete toilet rooms.

The class-Tooms of the school are
located in the central section of the
main building and in a building adj
Joining each end of the main struc-
ture. is the auditorium and gymnas-

have bsen pushing the work on the

Necessity for a new junior high
school had been felt during the past

LODGES ARE Warned
AGAINST IMPOSTERS

William J. Mckinley, supreme sec
retary of the Knights of Columbus,
has issued a general warning against
what appears to be a group of bogus
''joiners" operating in various parts OF
the country Their stock in trade,
he states, sis simply stock of in
sigma buttons of various fraternal or
ganizations, such as the Masons, the
Knights of Columbus, Elks, etc. We
have evidence that one man who ap-
piled for and received assistance from
X. of c. council on the plea that he
was a stranded knight of Columbus
approached Masons with the plea thai
he was a stranded Mason. Similar
complaints have been received from
many different points.
"The councils of the Knights of Co
lumbus are ready to render what alo
they can to the really distressed ano
destitute, but, as a rule, the takers
are able-bodied men who are well able
to look after themselves"

IRISH RAIL STRIKE
POSTPONED | MONTH
fBv Associated Pressl

BELFAST, Jan. 1.-THE strike on
the Irish Railroad which had been
called to take effect at midnight to-
night, was postponed one month, as
a result of today's conference between
representatives of the workers and
the employers in Dublin, according to
news received here this afternoon.
The managers of four Dublin roads
last night made an offer through Mr..
Griffith, which never was rejected by
the men, that if they remained at work
the companies would find employment
for three months for all those deemed
superfluous to the operation of the
roads under an arbitration award.
This would give the provisional gov
ernment time to get firmly estab-
lished in the hope that opportunity
for wider employment would occur
meanwhile.

nine OLD SUBMARINE
Sent TO DAvY JONES'
LOCKER BY GUNNERS
(By Associated Press)

WASHINGTON, Jan. 14.-Nine OF
Uncle Sans old submarines have Just
ended their careers by serving as tar
gets for the guns of the destroyer
squadrons attached tc the Asiatic
fleet. A brief cablegram telling of the
completion of the target practice
which had been going on during the
past two weeks was received today at
the navy department
The resting place of these obsolete
submersibles is not home waters
but in the Pacific outside Manila Bay.
Weeks before the target tests were
begun the work of dismantling the
old submarines and taking everything
of value off had been completed.
Eight of them had months ago been
decreed worthless and placed out of
commission. The AZ, "A, A6, AT and
B2 We're taken off the active list on
Dec. u, 1919. The A3, AS, and BIS
were declared obsolete July 25, 1921
and the B1 Joined them on Dec. l.

Coincident with the passing of these
old boats, early types of American
built submarines, 10 S-boats, some OF
them the best the navy has, have ar
rived at Cavite, Manila Bay, and have
replaced them with the Asiatic fleet
Under command of Captain Thomas
Hart, Z. S. N, and conveyed by the
tender Beaver, eight of the S-boats
left Honolulu Nov. 3, arriving at Ca
vite Dec. l after an eight-day stop a.
Guam. The other two, conveyed by
the tender Rainbow, left Nov. II ant
arrived Dec. after stopping three
days at Guam.

HANDLEY IN FAVOR
OF AID FOR VETERANS

That an adjusted compensation
measure of some kind, passed now will
be of more immediate benefit to the
former service man than a marble
monument, was the opinion expressed
by Mayor Lawrence Handley, during
a discussion of the matter in the city
hall Saturday morning.
Instead of putting their money in
to marble monuments for the county
and state service men, the officials
should be trying to help the boys
through the present hard times" he
said.
Fellows were fighting for $50 per
month during the war while others
were at home, making good money
and putting il into savings banks, to
tide them over times such as these.

S4,597.S2 EXPENDED
BY WAYNE FOR ROAD
MACHINERY IN 1921

That Wayne county expended
S4,597.S2 for machinery used in road
building during the year 1921 is shown
by the report filed with the auditor
late Friday and presented to the coun-
ty commissioners Saturday morning
by w. o. Jones, county superintendent
of highways.
The report shows in considerable de
tail just what amounts have been eX-
pended on various branches of road
work. The total spent during the
| year was S94,017.39 and the amount
was divided as follows: Supplies.
s3,S15.3S gravel S11.767 freight,
sS06; coal, S1,023; lumber. s76; tarvia,
s40360 sewers, s567; labor s15.695;
F., team labor, $53,253: superintendent
salary, 5000.
Material used amounted to 42.So5
| loads, and the total cost per mile o.
the 440 miles of roads of the county
was $213.
Proceeds from the sale of automo-
bile licenses, which in the past have
come to the county road fund, were
taken from the county year or so
ago, and as a result the tax levy for
| the county had to be raised to meet
this deficit, Mr.. Jones explained. ~Lat-
er the raised levy was cut in half by
the state tax board, and the county
was unable to get the proper amount
of material in 1920.
/ For this reason a greater amount
<of money than usual was expended in
1921 in order to regain the normal
condition. That condition has been al
tanned.
! The road levy has been cut from / /
cents to nine cents for 1922 because
of this fact, he said
