No Finar Play Was Ever Presented in America —Hon. Champ Clark. There is something deplorable in the report that in 20,900 .papers re- J turned by students of high schools, i colleges and normal schools sis out | of ten questions about men, places and problems of current public import­ ance are answered wrong or omitted, Taking 1,000 of this year's high school graduating classes in country districts, small towns and cities, the Institute for Public Service to which the 20,000 papers were turned overby the- Review of Reviews for analysis, finds that 40 did not recognize Presi- dentH Harding’s picture; 30 .did not know who Pei'shing was; 630 did not know the meaning of “open shop"; 250 could not mention an item of cur- rent interest connected with Washing ton where the disarament conference was in session, not to mention- con- gres; 800 could not remember the much advertised Budget Director Dawes; 500 did not know that Mellon is Secretary of the Treasury; 970 could not recognize the picture of the United States commissioner of edu­ cation, and 170 did not even know the name of their own state school ex­ ecutive. The only hopeful sign was that fewer senior boys failed on DeVal­ era, Leonard Wood and Lloyd George than on who won the world series or the star actor in The Three Musket­ eers, and in the fact that more girl seniors knew about Sinn Fein and the soldier bonus than knew about Susan Lenglen and Ruth Law. I t is rather alarming to note that 535 normal students who will next year teach 535 classes averaged only 25 per cent, only one student averag­ ing more than 70 per cent. I t would be instructive to the tax­ payers to learn how both pupils and teachers in our local schools would stand up under the test. II You Need Printing Drop in And See Us next strolled up town to get his bearings and located the blacksmith chop. He secured the tool* and pro­ ceeded to the postoffice where he forc­ ed tlw side door open. He blew one charge in the’vault door bu t it failed and ha went hack to the Wolford'shop to get another hammer. When near the postoifice he notice a man coming up street hut waited until he was out of sight. Miiey says he recognized, the man while laying in the mayor's office after being shot. The man is thought to be Frank Williams and the hammer may have been mistaken for a gun. Miiey says that a “bum" shot was the cause of him being caught, as he could have blown the door easily if everything had gone right. After being shot by Conf&rr and making vis escape to the railroad he tried to unlock the door of the Cedarville Grain Company, old Sterrett office, that he might get insome place to rest and get his strength, but he could not open the door and was too weak to break in. He then proceed­ ed across the railroad track .to the place near the Tbwnaley property where he was found by Clarence Peck. Miiey insists that he was by him­ self and had no knowledge of the town other than by a map from which was found on him. He says he has operat­ ed alone for years, While he has no doubt blown many safes and got away with it, he would not talk of his life only in connection with jobs in which he had been caught, When Miiey was landed one of the famous crooks of the country fell into the clutches of the law. • A large number of wedding presents were stolen from the residence of Mr, and Mrs. Carr just before the marriage of their daughter to Wilbur White.

GRAIN COMPANY OFFICE ENTERED TUESDAY NIGHT The Office of The Cedarville Far­ mers' Grain Company was broken in­ to some time Tuesday night. The win­ dow under the scale shed was opened after three or four of the iron bars were pried off. So far as .is known not a thing was touched. The safe was unlocked but nothing disturbed. Not even small hardware in the showcase was taken. Whether Miley’s friend did the job is a question. There was indications that the lock on the front door of the Exchange Bank had been tampere dwith Monday night but no attempt was made to enter.

Ask the girls about them. 1 A contest was started Monday morn ing to see who could get the most words of the • word Washington. Henry Kylo found 301 words. He re­ ceived a prize which looked like «n box of candy. Inside was a note— “Don't drop us on the floor, or you can’t have us anymore”. We all won­ der why? . Hurrah! We are free today. A holi­ day. What a wonder. We didn’t get “Washington’s birthday” but we get today instead. Thanks to the new schoolboard and teachers. At last!

THE OLD CIDER MILL On evenings like this, a3 I cit in the gloaming, my rnem’ry gd«* back, as one's memory will; I give it full sway in its erratic roaming until it lands plump a t the old cidcr-mjll--the mill of my Dad, in the old apple-orchard,—the only machinery the old man possessed; it ground up the “culls" and it squozo out the nectar, tha t thrills mu this minute, down under the vest. . . . That old cider-mill was the pride of my boyhood, though smug yellcw-jackets contested my right, and sometimes I landed an angry bald-hornet, th a t taught me too well hoW a devil can fight. . . .
