road during the past week on account
of the. weather. There has been con-
siderable flu in the changing force,
and the supervisor has been careful
about exposing his charges unneces-
sarily.
- The directors of the Peoples Bank
& Trust Company held their annual
meeting today. The understanding is
that they found the affairs of the bank
in excellent shape and ordered the
payment of the usual semi-annual di-
vidend.
- Upon inquiry of Superintendent
Montgomery yesterday, it developed
that about II per cent. Of the pupils
were ont of the white school on ac-
count of illness. OF these AZ were out
of the grammar grades and 80 out OF
the high school grades, a total of Y.
Superintendent Montgomery thought
that about half of the absences were
on account Of flu.
-"There is an unusual demand for
fruit in this market just now-about
the biggest have ever known" re-
marked a local grocer yesterday. NO
tice the show windows Of any Of the
groceries and you will be struck by
the large stocks they are carrying.
Ordinarily you would think some Of
them are overloaded; but that is not
the case. The people are eating more
fruit than usual, and it is largely be-
cause of so much sickness in and
around, the town.
- Messrs. r. f. Montgomery and
Brown Ferguson, residence owners on
West Liberty street between the
Schorb Hill and 5the jail have filed a
protest with Mayor Hall and Super
visor Brown in connection with the
improvement of West Liberty street.
The, survey provides for gentle
slope from the top of the Schorb Hill
to the JAIL This will mean several
feet added to the embaDkment opposite
the homes of Messrs. Montgomery and
Ferguson to the injury, as they claim
of their property, and they give notice
that If the plans of the survey are
further prosecuted they will seek such
relief as they may be entitled to under
the law. In the view of the engineer
the proposed fill is absolutely neces-
sary to the practical efficiency of the
proposed road Improvement plan.
- CLOSING of the school on account
Of flu cannot be justified on common
sense grounds" said DR.. r, A. Bratton,
of the board Of trustees yesterday.
There is not better ventilated or
more comfortably heated building In
the town than this school building. In
fact there is not home that will come
up to it in either respect. OF course
conditions vary with the children.
Some have the proper amount Of cloth
ing, some too much and some too little,
and while some will complain OF being
too cold and some hot the same condi-
tion will be found in any family OF
half a dozen around the common crate
or fire place. Nobody knows the source
of flu infection, whether by contagion
or otherwise, and so far as we can tell,
the children are as safe in the school
as anywhere else. can't see that the
situation can be improved by turning
them loose to scatter everywhere. The
only justffiable grounds that I can see
for closing the school would be short
age of teachers or attendance reduced
to a point that would not warrant con-
tinuance."

II is one of natures little ironies
that one of the coolest spots on earth,
right under the Arctic circle, should
have steam and boiling water issuing
naturally from the ground. But the in
habitants do not feel that the joke
is on them for they proceed to use the
abundant steam in their laundry work
as if it had been created for just
that purpose. Iceland, which is larger
than Ireland is really a series of
volcanic peaks emerging from the
ocean and about six-sevenths of il is
a waste of cooled lava, powders and

many portions especially in the south
western part, around Reykjavik, the
capital where the accompanying il

this year. What has been the chief

excessive heat this summer, is now

evening the past week and will be
shut for the winter after September

delivered twice a week instead of
every day as was done all summer.

son from Mr.. Prader, has been dry
locked. The launch was operated by
state authorities this season and
made regular trips across the lake
carrying passengers to and from
trains.
The eighty cottages on the north
end are now nearly all unoccupied
