NEW SCHOOL LAW Measure Explained To County Superintendents TilE DIVISION OF COUNTIES FranKfort Ky July lSpeclal- n answer to questions concerning the new school law which was passed by the last Legislature Prof J G Crabbe Superintendent of Public Instruction sent out circular letters to all the county school superintendents in Kentucky The circular letter answers questions which has been asked the educational department and the answers which Were prepared bv Pro I Crabbe after consultation with James Breathitt Attorney General will give the people of the State generally better idea of what the new law is and how it will work The circular letter is as follows Kentucky Department of Education J G Crabbe State Superintendent Frankfort Ky June 24 Dear County Superintendent A bulletin giving de tailed information and suggestions con cerning the operation of the new county school district law will shortly be is sued NuMerious inquiries and sugges tions about House bill No 41 have reached this department and will have most careful consideration Today this circular may be helpful to officers for immediate needs First the county is the unit The school boundary must coincide with the county The law recognizes no fractional districts However I think that conditions may make necessary convenient arrangements locally similar to the old law in Section 68 Such arrangements cannot be effected by this office but must be perfected by localauthorities Of course the re districting will have no effect concerning the operation of schools for the year 190809 Second The county superintendent the County Judge and the County At to ney shall divide the county into edu cational divisions and they shall subdi vide each educational division into school subdistricts Boundaries are to be based on white children but when ever these boundaries are fixed by these officers above named the lines of white and colored districts shall coincide ThirdParagraph 2 above indicates that the offices above named are the absolute authority to fix and change the educational division But Section 10 of the new law directs that the County Board of Education shall have full power to establish new school subdis tricts and to change the boundaries of school subdistricts The framers of the act however had no intention of ultra rigid boundaries A wise provision of the act see Section 17 carefully has reference to consolidation of school sub districts Two or more white subdis tricts may unite for the needs of the whie children vice versa several sub districts may unite for the needs of the colored children These are called consolidated schools Section 17 is to the superintendent who is a real states man a sufficient safety valve Look out for the needs of the schools not for the needless ft iction Fourth About numbering education divisions and subdistrict For future convenience number the educational divisions and the school subdistricts in the following manner Beginning in educational division No 1 with Cedar Valley subdistrict io 1 Oak Hill sub district No 2 an1 so on through the whole number of subdistricts in this division Then educational division No2 with Collett subdistrict No 1 Powell subdistrict No 2 and so on through the whole nnmber of subdistricts in this division Tnen in the saute way number each subdistrict in the other educatiocallIvlsionsFifthThe is asked Is it possible to make Lebanon for example an educational division by itself Re fer to the new law Bulletin NO3 Section 2 which says The County Judge the County Superintendent of Schools and the County Attorney shall then subdivide each of the said educa tional divisions into schotl subdistricts following as nearly as practicable the boundaries of existing school district for I white children If the educational division Lebanon can be subdivided into subdistricts and if the trustees can organize a division board as noted in Section 4 such possibility may be contrived The matter is scarcely prac ticableSixthAbout questions concerning election of trustees- a Trustees are elected by ballot Boxes are to be used and the secret ballot iib to be used as at all regular factions b The County Clerk furnishes boxes and ballots Procedure shouldobtain as in regular elections except as specific ally directed in the new law c The followiug blanks will be furnished by this office to the County Superintendent 1 Certificate of trusteeeligibility 2 Petition of trustee nomination 3 Trustees electionreturns- SeventhGraded common schools shall retain their present boundaries and be exempt from the provisions of the new act see Section 2 EightBulletin NO3 directs that the schoolsession of 19089 will not be af fected by the new law The superin tendent means it to be understood that old district boundaries according to 1008 census will exist thnt the present trus tees should arrange the opening of Schools the selecting of teachers etc but the old truste s vacate their office as soon as the division boards organize within thirty days after the date of their electionAugust 31 Ig08 See Section 4 The new officers take full control of school property school supervision etc at that time Fellow superintendent per cent of our school people believe in the new system I depend upon you as the head of your county Bear in mind these two things at once First it is a great opportunty you have to redistrict your entire county Second your influence should count for much in the selection of the right trustees Respectfully sub mitted- J G Crabbe Superintendent IDEAL HOME J W Weatherholt

largely repeopled- It may be that the blue blood shows and that the name is a badge of honor but most Nova Scotlans dont believe it for they feel that it is a term of reproachWhy bluenose was the question t put to one young woman whose home Isnt far from Nova Scotia Why after the bluenoso potatoes of course she said and I think Its mean to name people after potatoes Now its true that next to apples po tatoes form the greatest product of the rich Nova Scotian soil And its also true that the bluenose Is the bright par F titular star among the varieties of po tatoes they raise in Nova Scotia But the potatoes were named for the people not the people for the potatoes Its a simple question of chronology You explain it carefully to the young woman and she says How silly of me but you can see with half an eye that you havent convinced her Heres another guess Being the third and last maybe its the right one At any rate its the one generally ac cepted in that part of the American world known as down east It is cold In Nova Scotia mighty cold for six months out of every twelve and tho Nova Scotian nose peeking out from the furs and woolen mufflers first gets red and then turns blue as the

Sod by A R Fisher L I MANS HE DGEARI From the Primitive Cap to the Glassy High Hat of Today Earliest of all forms of headgear was the cap The hat did not really como Into common use till the seventeenth century In thirtlme of Charles I the queer high sugar lost shaped hat came into fashion It was wound with a rich band and trimmed with a feather Constant balancing of the head was necessary to keep it on The lint was taken up by the Puritans who antis fled their bitter consciences by discard ing the frivolous band and the wicked featherCharles II brought the French pert wig into England and the tall hat went out to make way for a low broad brimmed thing gorgeous with feathers and giuicracrs These broad brims be came broader and broader At last it became necessary to turn them up First this was done at the back finally according to the wearers idea Out of this extravagant style of head gear grew the cocked hat Tho foot men and the liveried coachmen of many European nations still wear this style of headgear During Queen Annes time the cocked hat was the hat of the gentleman Tho correct fashion was to carry It under the arm as much as possibleThe revolution which took off so many heads that had worn the cocked hat took off the cocked hat too In its place tho crescent shape became the style partly by force Tho direct ancestor of that dreadful thing the high hat of today was the noble and sturdy beaver Beavers went out of fashion largely because the supply of material became exhausted London Answers NATURAL SOAP The Queer Fruit of a Tree That Grow In Algeria Soap grows on trees in Algeria The soap tree Is ornamental and reaches a height of fifty feet It begins to bear fruit when six years old The wood Is close grained takes a good polish and Is admirably suited for furniture The average Income from a tree is 10 to 20 a year The composition of tho fruit consists of a nut shaped hull in which Is a seed In the hull exists the soapy matter In the proportion of 30 to 40 per cent of the bulk of the hull The soap principle is set free by tho shredding of the hull and using it with water just as If It were a piece of soap A beautiful lather is the result and tho cleansing qualities are such that there la no soap made by human process that can compare with them For toilet purposes the same applies The hull can be made Into a powder and the powder into a cake so as to make the use of it easier It can also be made into a liquid for hair wash dentifrice and various other preparations Seeds of the Algerian soap tree have been Im ported to the United States and soap trees have been discovered In Florida indigenous to the soil The seed has n kernel which contains a fixed oil In ev ery respect preferable to the best Im ported olive oil either for eating or culinary purposes and also for all kinds of Industrial products In which the olive oil is used The yield In oil Is twice that of the olive fruit Balti more American A Chinese Superstition When a Chinese baby takes a nap people think Its soul Is having a rest going out for a long walk perhaps If the nap Is a very long one the mother is frightened She is afraid that her babys soul has wandered too far away and cannot find its way home If it doesnt come back of course the baby will never awaken Sometimes men are sent out into the streets to call the babys name over and over again as though it were a real child lost They hope to lead the soul back home It a baby sleeps while it is being carried from one place to another tho danger of losing the soul along the way is very great So whoever carries the little one keeps saying Its name out loud so that the soul will not stray away They think of the soul as a bird hopping along after them A Foxa Stratagem A fox is

of which are found in the warmer parts of the ocean The bath sponges are chiefly obtained from the eastern Half of the Mediterranean where they occur at all depths down to 200 fathoms and are obtained by div- Ing dredging or harpooning Writing in Harpers Magazine C W Furlong gives an account of tho work of the Greek sponge divers off the coast of Tripoli in north Africa Attacks by sharks and

suit and helmet The greatest enemy of the caphander is paralysis hardly a single diver es caping from it in some form or other The great cause of this disease is the sudden relief of pressure due to the rapid ascent the dangerous symptoms appearing when the diver emerges into the fresh air Strange as it may seem a partially paralyzed diver on descending into the waters recovers the use of his limbs again and his circulation becomes nor mal To battle with this scourge the Greek government has issued regula tions as to the depths to which a diver shall go and has also provided a hos pital

u Y FREAKS OF RAZORS The Way the Grain of the Blades IIs Sometimes Reversed The finest grades of razors are s icllcate that even the famous Damns cus sword blades cannot equal them In texture It Is not generally known that the grain of a Swedish razor Is so wnsltlve that Its general direction Is tkanged after a short service When 7u buy a line razor the grains run from tho upper end of the outer point im a diagonal direction toward the handle Constant stropping will twist the steel until the grain appears to be straight up and down Subsequent use Jtlll drag the grain outward from the tdge so that after steady use for several I months tho fiber of the steel occu pies a position exactly the reverse of that which It did on the day of pur chase The process also affects the temper of the blade and when the gram sets from tho lower outer points toward the back you have a razor Which cannot be kept In condition even by the most conscientious barber But heros another curious freak that will take place In the same tool If you leave the razor alone for a month or two and take It up you will find that the grain has assumed Its first position The operation can be repeated until the steel is

reaches its desti nation in safety then ho is swallowed up in the crowd and neither clerk nor crowd is aware of his existence A few years ago an express company iqnt a large consignment of cash to

Address Lynn Maw ea With UlUU irom tucu juutuej Lout some steamship dock Two or three clerks stand idly on the sidewalk and- a hatless mau paces the corridor while the bags aro being hauled into the buildingmore gold here and more de tectives but so unobtrusively Is the whole work carried on that no crowd Is attracted to tho scene But for all the seeming indifference tho subtreasury is an arsenal and fully prepared to deal either with tho in dlvldual robber or the collective mob High up between the Doric columns that lank the Pine street entrance to the building are two apparently small holes One notices the heavy iron door and the stout iron grille but not tho holes in the masonry And yet those holes are tho real terror to possible thieves or mobs for they are fitted with trapdoors and their purpose is to permit tho dropping of dynamite bombs upon the heads of rioters should they storm the building But these bombs are but a small part of tho system of defense Scattered around among tho clerks in the various rooms aro open pino boxes each of which holds a half dozen revolvers The boxes are so placed as to be with in reach of the clerks at all times and the clerks know how to shoot It is up under tho roof of tho build ing however that the real arsenal Is to bo found It contains at present a hundred Springfield rifles twenty of which are fitted with bayonets and 12000 rounds of ammunition Close by are four Catling guns mounted on their tripods and provided with 20000 rounds of cartridges Besides these aro a hundred Colt revolvers with 1200 cartridges and most awe inspiring of all perhaps 1500 bombs are ready to bo dropped through those holes over the entrance on tho heads of any un desirable persons who insist upon en tering the building Under the caves on tho Nassau street front of the building tho windows aro equipped with steel shutters so designed that they may bo projected from the wall and give shelter to marksmen who with their rifles could t oweep Broad and Nassau streets clear of human beings in a few minutes Al though those weapons are never used they are kept in perfect order By no means is all the gold of Wall street kept in the subtreasury In tho vaults down in the basement of the Stock Exchange building aro stored millions of securities and twice each day in the morning and again in the evening trucks back up to tho curb and trunks filled with bonds and se curities of all kinds are carried out of or into the building In order to guard amply against accidents making It im possible to open the vaults thoro are two doors one at tho Broad street end and tho other at tho New street side of the long room each door having four time locks Each of these giant doors weighs twenty tons and cost 30000 A lieutenant of tho New York po lice

of speech In remote times dog were used for war purposes Plutarci1 and Pliny relate many InstancesI I e of Agcsllaus at the siege of Mantlnea of Cambyses in his expedition to Egypt of the king of the Geromantlans In ra gaining his throne Aeneas GOO B 0 tells of dogs that carried letters In their collars also tho Clmbrlans and Teuton kept dogs These however were tight Ing dogs justly dreaded by tho Roman soldiers Tho Roman military author Vegetlus reports that dogs were used In the for titled towers to make known by their barking the approach of the enemy and to keep the garrisons awake also dur- Ing the middle ages war dogs were used for guarding camps and bulwarks Scotch bloodhounds were specially reputed for tracking escaped prisoners They were also used for attacking the enemys cavalry mutilating the horses with the prongs and hooks of their coats of mall To these coats firepots were attached which set the camps oc fire In the days of Granson and Mur ten 147G the battles started with in fight of Swiss dogs against Burgundian dogsand at Murteu the Burgundian dogs were dismembered by their ad versarles from the Alps It is said that after the discovery of America war dogs slaughtered not less than 200C IndiansThe of dogs for fighting purposes continued in modern times Emperor Charles V 15181550 received from England 4000 dogs as subsidiary forces against France Al Valence French and Spanish dogs joined battle in which the latter remained victors As late as in the sev enteenth century war dogs wero used as scouts against tho Turks In 1822 an assault on the Acropolis of Athens by the Greeks was frustrated by dogs The French employed dogs in Tunis against Arabian tribes In Mexico it IBM the dogs of tho Zaccateca volun teer corps proved the most terrible adversaries of the Mexican guerrilla until they were got rid of by poison In tho last TurkoRusslan war 1877 1878 the Russians employed war dogs both In Europe and in Asia Tne Austrians and Hollanders also used trained dogs successfully to protect themselves against being surprised by the enemy and to find their adver saries In the Impenetrable thickets Today tho dog is no longer employed as a fighter He is trained to carry ammunition to the battlefield to guard the outposts prevent skirmishers from stealing at too close range forward letters and finally as a Samaritan in finding the

Two Clever Schemers Fleeced a Helpless Hotel Keeper Outa of 5000 I dare say you never heard of the great smallpox swindle said the hotel manager The facts of that remarkable affair were withheld at the time for the most urgent reasons of policy and even now I prefer to tell the story 1 without names or localities It hap pened In the fall of 1880 when a certain hotel in a largo western city was crowded with tourists One day at the height of tho season two gentle manly looking strangers put up at the f house and were assigned to what we call a double room About n week I later one of them appeared at tho of I lice and requested a private Interview with the manager I regret to inform you he said after the door was closed that my friend Is down with a severe I attack of smallpox Tho proprietor nearly fell out of his chair Thoro was known to be 1 smallpox in tho city and the bare sug gestlon that the disease had appeared In the hotel was enough to empty it in a twinkling To let the news get out meant the loss of thousands upon J thousands of dollars It meant the I ruin of the seasons business rio must be quietly removed at once said the proprietor trying to control his agitation Removed exclaimed tho other Taken through tho cold air to a laza J rettol Why man that would be mur derl Ill not permit iU The hotel keeper was thunderstruck Do you mean to say he must I stay here7 he gaspedICertainly said tho stranger It was a ticklish situation The hotel keeper dare not enforce his sugges tion while to lot tho case remain was like storing gunpowder in q furnace room He pleaded protested begged threatened and blustered but all in vain Tho man was firm as a rock It you attempt to eject my sick friend ho declared Ill publish your inhumanity to the entire community Finally it occurred to the distracted proprietor to see first whether It was really a case of smallpox so he sent for a physician swore him to secrecy and bustled him up to the room The doctor took one look at the disfigured face on the pillow and reported that the malady was there In a malignant type Ho advised tho mans Immediate removal at any cost If you keep him concealed ho said the disease may spread and It would ruin you for life You owe something to your guests Again the proprietor Interviewed th friend and again the latter refused to budge from his position Where can I take hlml he de manded You know very well I cantt get comfortable quarters for such aI purpose and I wont have him butchered In a pesthouse to please any land lord on earth The hotel man felt hi hair stand on end but concluded to lett things stand as they were until morn ingNext day he sent for the sick mans friend and asked him whether he had any suggestions to make Yes he replied I thought up a plan overnight which you may adopt or not as you like As I said before ho continued it is useless to try to rent quarters for such a case We might however buy a small cottage and take him there I have figured the thing up and the total expense would bo about 5000 If you are willing to hand over that amount I will take him away and assume all1I further responsibility I make the otter entirely out of sympathy for your guestsTho landlord looked him In the 1 too havo thought tho situatio- over na he said and Im convinced it simpleIIm convinced theres nothing ter with your dear friend upstairs but I am also convinced that the slightest breath of tho affair wouldI greatly damage the reputation of the house As a business proposition Ii consider it worth 5000 to get rid ofr you The other man smiled ironically Call a cab and get out your money he said and Inside an hour tho Incu bus had been spirited through a side door swathed in blankets and driven awayAs tho landlord shrewdly surmised tho wholo thing was a confidence game and ho learned the particulars later on through a sport ho had once befriended There was nothing the matter with the rascal upstairs exceptt that his face had been pricked a little with a quill dipped In croton oil some thing that makes a horrible looking pustule which disappears in a few days and leaves no mark I always thought tho hotel man showed good senso in taking the course ho did He was caught in a trap and took the cheapest way out Tho bare rumor o oven a suspected case would probabl- have involved a loss of 50000 or 60 000 It was far hotter to pay the 5 000 and charge it to education New Orleans TimesDemocrat A Wonder BillIs ho clover with his pen JillVery Why he can hold hh fountain pen behind his ear without getting ink all over his cheek
