RESIDENCE ROBBED

Last evening during the absence of
Mr. and Mrs. III. J. Oberholtzer and
son James at the movie show, their
home on the north side was entered
and the office desk used by Mr.. Ober
hotter in keeping the books and re-
cords of his office of state conserva
ton warden was ri'led of more than
100000 in cash and 1890 Winches-
ter rifle. Going home about $3.50 after
the show, Mrs. Oberholtzer discovered
the litter around the desk caused from
the throwing of papers, ETC., from the
desk and called her husband who was
putting away the car. Apparently, the
house had been entered by means Of
key and who ever did the job was
undoubtedly aware that at times con-
siderable money is on hand, received
from the sale of nonresident hunting
licenses. A day or so before Mrs.
Oberholtzer had checked up the cash
and knew there was $85O0O and quite
an amount had been taken later with
the intention of depositing it in the
bank this morning. Considerable mon
ey in the form of checks was undis-
turbed, and $24.OO in bills was found
on the floor which was evidently
dropped by who ever committed the
robbery Sheriff Blohm was notified at
once and is now attempting to pick up
some clues that will discover the per-
petrator of the serious offense.

Team work was lacking, but that is

end of it, the team can be rounded out
into an aggregation that will give a

Following that, Miss Rose We'll rem.
dered a suite of four selections at the
piano, which were we'll received. Then
came the main topic of the evening
Cooperation Between Parents and
Teachers" by Mr. Ralph. The ability
of the speaker is well known
to all who have heard him, and Man
day night he handled his subject in a
manner that shows him. to be thor
oughly conversant with the problems
of both the parent and the teacher.
His remarks were brief, but we'll
drawn, with equal emphasis laid on
the mutual responsibility that rests
upon both parties to the transaction
the parents and the teachers. The
points brought out by Mr.. Ralph show
ed clearly how cooperation may be ac-
complished.

ing bass solos, .The Wanderer' by

Mr. Valley has appeared before local

Next on the program was cornet

ways be counted upon to do his part
in any program of entertainment with
pleasing effect, which was evident
Monday evening in the response he
was accorded both for his main selec
tion and the encore.
The discussion of the evening was
on the subject of "Plays and Games"
Led by Mr.. Kracht, the discussion
proved interesting in showing the
need of play in all branches of work
Teachers in various departments from
the kindergarten to the physical dir
ector of the high school were called
upon to give. their views on the sub
ject which altogether. made worthy
presentation of the topic.
The program closed with America
sung by the audience.

and membership campaign started

such cooperation can results be OBJ
tanned and it should be the endeavor
of all connected with the organization
to see to it that the membership is
increased and full attendance
brought out to every meeting. With
the last meeting as a standard to
work by, future meetings should be
an event worthy of your interest.
Remember, the association meets at
the High School the first Monday
evening of each month. Be there and
become an active worker in an or
ganization that means much to the
success of the local schools.

LaFollette's Plurality $4,000
A telephone message received at
700 p. m. Wednesday night from re-

stated that the vote cast on election
day was less than 100000 and that
with more than three fourths Of the
precincts in the state heard from,
hat LaFollette's plurality was slight

LaFoIette Strength Fails
1t was said before election that La
Toilette had no idea that he could
succeed in getting the necessary 266
electoral votes to really place him in
the presidential chair, but there is no
doubt but that he expected to receive
a strong endorsement from the states
bordering upon Wisconsin at least.
This was not accorded him, but we
believe that will not be as disapoint-
ing to him as the fact that his home
state for once in his career did not
rally round his standard as has been
usual when he was candidate for
office.
Radio Brought Returns
FOR rng first time in the history of
national elections, the radio was in
general use as a means of getting
election returns and all voters whose

when on election nights it was neces-
