PAoLI AND AMHERST SCHOOLS
IN TIE FOR LEAD IN CONTEST

The Herald rural school subscrip-
tion contest is beginning to warm up,
the past week having seen most of
the schools of the county reporting
that they are at work.
Paoli and Amherst are in a tie for
the lead, but are only few subscrip-
tions ahead of several other schools.
Reports coming in from the Fair
field, Amitie. Liberty and Pleasant
Valley schools show that those schools
are working and will make good
showing within the next couple of
weeks.
The indications at present show
that any school, regardless of its size
has very good chance to win, even
though the competition is keen thru
out the county.
A dozen subscriptions will put any
school in the lead at present, and
rumors coming in lead us to believe
that there will be a few surprises
in store within the next two weeks.

county, for the purpose of locating
the source of supply of the hootch

Mr.. Brophy was eating his noon
meal at the time the officers arrived
and appeared but slightly worried as
they progressed with their search.
Two gallons of liquor were found
in the house and later one gallon waS
found secreted in the farm yard.
This did not satisfy the officers
and they continued to search about
the premises. They were rewarded
couple of hours later when Sheriff

which was buried under pile of corn
in the yard.
No still was found, but the follow
day evidences of the former location
of one was found in straw stack
near the house. The still had been
moved a short time before, however.
Mr.. Brophy was taken to Wray by
the officers and lodged in jail. His

ening by an appropriate program con
slstius OF songs. recltations and dia-
logUes. In addition to 'he sci ctions
given h ythe school. Mrs. Gwartney
gave two readings and Misses Levlna
Peterson. OF Holyoke. aud Bonnie
Durham rendered two duets.
The house was well filed by pat.
rons and friends. At the close OF
the program the matter of continu-
Ing the p. 7, A. work in the school
was taken up and discussed. II was
decided to lay the matter over until
January 18th, when there will be n
program given by the people OF the
community. Refreshments will be
served that evening. The lack OF a
musical instrument In the school has
proven drawback In singing and
instrumental music but this matter
will be overcome before the next
meeting as there is a movement on
foot to secure a musical instrument.
Whatever action Is taken In regard
to the continuing OF the p. T. A.
work we hope that the community
spirit win be kept lively and u keen
interest shown In the welfare OF the
school. Man Is social being and
