A meeting of the county hoard was held last Satu rdayand organised as follows: 0 . 1\ Mitman, Osborn, pres. Ident and J. IS. Hastings, Oedarvllle secretary.

PRIMARY WILL RE ATTRACTION jWHAT WOOSTER THINKS UNTIL DATE-i-AUGUST -11, { * OP DR. McCHESNEY, 1 The various candidates are making; a stir, as the time for the primary on August H- Is not far away. Several are making a very active canvass- and Hading it soma task this hot weather, h u ^ more of a task to interest the farmer, who is busy In Ms harvest. TRAMP DRIVES WOMtftN from HO.ME JN NNSHjfr CLOTHESJ — 1 Mr. 0, M, Austin, who Is now serv­ ing his first term as county commis­ sioner, is announced for .the customary second term. Mr. Austin will, Judging from present indications, he re-nomi­ nated and there is no reason why he Bhould not. Custom gives him hiasee. ond term, hut hts faithful performance of duty in behalf of the county cer- taily warrants it. prop , p. m : buynolps , Prof. Reynolds' began teaching at Blanchester, and la|;er was superin­ tendent a t Harveysburg before coming to Cedarville. He is a graduate of the Blanchester high school and Lebanon .University, and holds a masters de­ gree from Cedarville College. He also holds life certificates for common and high schools In this state, which re­ quire examinations in, twenty-seven ' branches. He has- been a member, of the County Board of Examiners for several years bade, where his work has been Very successful. iProf. Rey­ nolds has also been superintendent o f1 the M»f B. Sabbath School for years, he being a member of that church. He is also a member of the local P. and A. M. and- stands well in •fraternity circles, Under the law -the-new superintend­ en t IS allowed an Office in the opurt house- and big duties will be wlminlg levote much tiUtoJu try and village schools- He has not yet -determined as to whether he shall move to Xenia or remain here, hut h is many friends here are anxious - at he make his residence in Cedarville. From the very first attempt of 'adopt­ ing the present Jaw Prof. 'Reynolds has been interested in -Its provisions and urged the adoption in the honest belief that the law properly, adminis­ tered would he the means of advancing the-rural schools, It Is well tlierfthat the first county superintendent is one thoroughly in accord with the hew law and will endeavor to bring put all .that was claimed for the laWprevious to its passage. • . The professor is to be congratulated on his promotion and we bespeak for him a successful term. In due time he will offer his resignation as local superintendent, the Vacancy to -be fill­ ed by the board before school opens next September, There is some speculation ad to how the various election officials are go lug to enforce Secretary of State Graves* order that Only those who sup­ ported the principles of the Republican party will be entitled to vote In the primary, This also applies to the Progressive and Democratic parties. Inasmuch a s -more Republicans than W other party changed to the Pro ■wessive last year and will likely want to return to th e old fold, we find that this order If enforced will not permit the return. The law is plain and the ,«ecretarv is not responsible for It be­ ing on the statutes and ,it was entirely unexpected among Republicans,, that they having' passed the law would be the first to feel the force o f 'I t The law is not fair now nor was i t then, but like many such party measures the onlv justification for them is to entrench that party in power. If elec­ tion officials refuse to enforce the -law the secretary has stated that they Will be removed without notice.-. There has been a saying for many years that political party platforms were only used for some party or in­ dividual to -walk into office on. Here­ tofore platforms in the various par­ ties were written by some smooth pol­ itician or skilled lawyer in the hope of catching the people on, something that sounded good but meant nothing, Under the- new Iaw„ the platforms of the various parties must be adopted by a convention representing all the various candidates on that ticket, For 'nstance, the various Republican can­ didates in the state may decide to en­ dorse temperance or suffrage. Of course It is expected that the city can­ didates would’oppose this, bu t as the rural candidates will greatly ouinum- barthose from the populated counties there -is no. telling what will happen. Just so with the Democratic -party v"~y. -Cox Is expected to stand- by the liquor license law yet the. canditades on -his ticket when If comes time for adopting the platform may outnumber the license fellows and then we would have a- llcenss Candidate tor governor running , on “« temperance platform. The following is taken from the Wooster Voice, summer school edition, and shows the high regard in which Dr; \Y. R. McChpaney Is held: “According to the latest reports, it seems that there will-probably be f chapgse in the Presidency of Cedar­ ville College, On account of a change in the Reformed Presbyterian Church, it -ip altogether likely that Dr, Dayld McKinney, the honored and efficient President of this college will resign his position and take up a-pastorate in Cincinnati. For some twenty years he has been a t the head of this insti­ tution and his loss will be keenly felt. “In case of a change, the question at once arises as to who shall succeed him. According to the ‘Cedarville Herald/, to one and all but one name appears -first, that -of Dr. W. R, *Mc. Obesney, Vice President and Dean. His scholarly attainments, power ag an prator, sacrifice -of private fortune by remaining loyal to the institution; Certainly makes him the . leading eandid&te tor the Presidency. Ijr, MeChesney's friends, the whole com­ munity, regardless of church affilia tion,.would be greatly pleased to see this great honor conferred Upon him. “CednTville is by no means the only place where Dr. AIcGbesney is appre­ ciated. May not his Wooster friends also add their words of appreciation and respect? In th e years that he has been connected with the Bummer School, those of us who have been associated with -him in the class room and on the campus have come to ad­ mire his scholarship and ability as a teacher, -and to love and respect him as a man. We have long wished that some day the opportunity might come when he might become a member of the faculty of the University, "We know him to be the type of man that Wooster needs. In fact the -attempt* has frequently been made to secure his service for this institution and tot our own benefit, it is to be hoped that this new opportunity of Dr. Mc- Ohespey's- will arouse the authorities of the University to greater efforts to secure this man among men before it is" too late. At all events, we con' gr.Aulate Dr, McChesney, upon his new prospect. We are glad that hic work" is ever receiving its merited consideration.” EXCHANGE BANK IS NOW A STATE INSTITUTION. The secretary Of state has granted the Exchange bank a new charter for doing general banking under the laws Of the sta te .,Heretofore the bank was a private institution under partnership agreement.

Mr. Ralph -Wolford was a friend in "time of need last Friday night while making a return trip from Xenia. When near Mr; HOmer Jobe’s farm he discovered a party of autolsts that seemed to be in trouble. Investiga­ tion proved that Postmaster Turnbull bad run shy of gasoline and was about to raid the neighborhood for some of the liquid. While the necessary was being drawn from the Wolford ma­ t-bine, Mr. t \ M. -Crouse came along and good naturedly offered assistance in that his new machino was equip­ ped with the latest in a reserve tank for gasoline and there was plenty for all. Mr. Turnbull was fitted out by Mr, Wolford and the Crouse machine went on. Later Ralph upon reaching Mr. Huston Cherry’s found the Grouse machine a t the side of the road and art unsuccessful effort being made to arouse Mr. Cherry, who was not at borne, The joke was sure Chough on the reserve tank which held no re­ serve At that time.

' In every community thqre are Insti­ tutions -which do not show an imme­ diate return In dollars and cents, for the amount /of money invested—-such as the church, school, college, public library and others. This -community has always showed its Interest in, and appreciation of" these institutions for the uplift, educa­ tion and culture of -her citizens. There are few places of like size In the state of Ohio-with such a library buildjng at its disposal and’without any co&t to the taxpayers. There are now over 400u volumes of reference works and first-class fiction on the shelves and all the best magazines And -periodicals on the reading tables for the use of every citizen of the township. The small ,tax voted for the maintenance of the library has. never-been felt and no one would wish to see this splendid institution closed permanently. - The township trustees have always provided for the library in their an­ nual budget, although the allowance sometimes has not been as much a3 asked for. The usual request Whs included In the budget tor 1914, but when our semi-annual draw came it "was found to be much smaller thah^usual. The library fund was not .the only one re­ duced and a shortage exists In other of the township funds, Only by practicing the strictest economy have- we been able to keep the library open this long and we have not been 1n a position to purchase any new books for almost a year. There will be no monies available until about September 1st, and your board does not care to go in debt, hence, We have been forced to Announce, most reluctantly, that the Public Li­ brary will be closed during the month of August. The budget commission will sit In.August and it we arc given our usual allowance the library can remain open all the time, but if net, we will be forced to close again next January or February. A number of patrons have books loaned them that are overdue. It will save these patrons money and the li­ brarian trouble if these are returned at Once. All books loaned must be In by July 30th. Books may bo taken out next week and returned September 1st without any, fine, tv. It, MeCHESNEY, President. MIRON 1. MARSH, Secretary, W. H. BARBER. Treasurer. FLORENCE E> FORBES, Librarian.

An affidavit of contempt h-ri been filed against Kate Setts anu Mary Haley by Hanna, who charged that the court's orders had been violated. About twenty-five witnesses were subpoenaed yet only a few were .called when the judge dismissed the case and repri­ manded the sisters that they must cease annoying Mr. Hanna and obey the court orders or the hands, of the law would be clamped down upon them.
