MONNETT-DE PEYSTER WILL BE CROWDED
School for Girls Starts Third Year— A Splendid Institution for Our City. The ■‘Monnett-'De Peyeter School for Girls opened Tuesday with an enrollment of students and sufficient aeeepted applications to insure twenty within the next two weeks. This means that before the close of the year and probably before the end of the first semester, students will be turned away for lack of room. This' is remarkable when the fact Is taken int& consideration that as a school, this Institution is but three yedrs old. The first two years of its history it was maintained as a children’s home. Besides this the school room and dormitory capacity was doubled last summer and no advertising for new students has been done. This demonstrates the reaLneeil of such an institution and also its future possibilities of enlargement. Miss A 1 Verta E. Simpson, formerly the principal of Chaddock Boys’ School, at Quincy, 111., is the newly elected principal of the school. Her assistants for the yeaT are Miss Addye Griffith, of Macon, HI.; Miss Emma Houses of Liverpool, W. Va.; Miss Lena Wilcox of Newbury, N. M.; Miss Minnie Waymire, of Wolcott, Ind., ana Mrs. I. Bergllnd. Some necessary repairs and furnishings have been added this summer which render the building more comfortable and attractive and the faculty and students both enter upon the year's work with enthusiasm. ' There is no enterprise In our community which merits'\ by its careful management and its altruistic purpose, greater appreciation and heartier co-operation on the •part of.our people than this school ft# young girls. There are many worthy institutions all over our land Into which money and interest are being poured for the noble purpose of bettering humanity by methods of reformation: this Institution has for its purpose, not the reformation of a character gone wrong, bu£ the building of the highest character; in other words, it is a work of prevention rather than reclamation. There Is a fascination about, reformatory work that appeals to the fancy, but reflection tells us that the work of prevention is far more beneficial to society bqth In economy of money and of morality; and the ls*ger benefit to the child is beyond the means of estimation. There are many ways in which the citizens of Rensselaer may help on this worthy work and their co-op-eration is .well deserved. Its board of managers with two exceptions are men and wqpaen prominent in business and social circles of Rensselaer. Its business Is as far as possible carried .on through our own local dealers. As a business asset, as well as a humanitarian enterprise, It Is worthy of consideration.
Onion Prices Going Up And Some Growers Sell.
The most absorbing topic in the Newland onion country now is the price of the crop. Some sold two weeks ago for 50 and 60 cents, while many others have sold during the past few days at 70 to 75 cents and others are holding tor a still higher prtye. James Campbell this Thursday morning sold one carload at 75 Vents a bushel. George SpatH sola 10,000 bushels at 75 cents a bushel and a number of others are reported to have sold at about the same prices. Ed Oliver, on whose land ji large amount of the onion farming was done, has about 50,000 bushels. He has sold none so far and expects to put his in his large storage plant and hold for the high spring price, which is quite apt to reach $2 per bushel, as there is reported to be a great
shortage in most onion fields. A buyer reached Mr. Oliver's home Wednesday evening and remained over night. He offered 85 cents a bushel for Ed’s entire-crop. Indications point to Oliver clearing up from $50,000 to $75,000 on his onion crop this year. He is now entertaining a lot pf land buyers, attracted by advertisements he plaeed in Opportunity,” a magazine with a large circulation. There Were several buyers there Wednesday and three more today. They are certainly captivated by ftie mammoth piles of onions and the great prices that are dffered. Some men with 10 or 15 acres will dear more than enough money to buy the land. It is reported that some who grew onions on the shares, half and half, will dear $l5O an acre. Mr. Oliver is selling largely in 10-acre tracts and this will bring many more families into Jasper county the coming year. **

Each Wednesday Afternoon at the Court Bouse—Other News of Charity Board. / Between the hours 0f,2 and 4 o’clock each Wednesday afternoon, a member of the relief committee of the Board of Organized Charities will be in the ladies’ rest room in the court house to receive donations of clothing and to receive reports of cases of need. lif you know of a case that should receive the attention of the Board of Charities please report at this time and place. People have been very kind in supplying us with clothing but doubtless many persons have much that we could use as soon as the weather gets cold.. '' When the hospital closed its doors it was necessary to convert some of the furniture into money as it was inconvenient to store, but it is hoped shat we may be able to secUre a room that can be fitted up to take care of emergencies and we have kept the linen that was donated. We hope to have articles published from time to time informing the public of what we are doing and hope to do. The regular meetings of the board are held on the first Monday night of each month in the office of the city mayor. Any case of need may also be reported at.this time.
UNCOOKED PORK CAUSE OF DEATH
Trichinosis in Family of Everett Green at Michigan City May Cause More Fatalities. The Michigan City News gives an account of the death and sickness in the family of Everett Green,raow of that city, but formerly of Rensselaer. Mr. Green and his six children, according to that paper, partook of uncooked pork and in two or three days the youngest child became ill. The others- took sick a little later. Medical aid was at once procured and physicians pronounced the disease trichinosis, due to diseased pork. The youngest child died Tuesday afternoon and there seems'to be no help for the other children, the doctors reporting that medical science has found nothing to cope with trichinosis. It seemea certain that the other children will die. The little girl that died Tuesday afternoon was 3 years old and was named Laura Anna. A telephone message received by the family of Everett’s father, W. A. Green, of Barkley township, stated that Everett showed signs of improvemeht and that was hope of saving his life but not the lives of the children. ' Mrs. Green did not partake of the meat and therefore was not a victim of the terrible disease.
The trichina is a parasitic worm that rapidly multiplies after entering the human stomach in improperly cooked pork and which are carried to the muscles and intestines by the blood. Death frequently results. , The terrible affliction to the Green family is felt by the relatives and friends in this county. Their experience should be a warning to every person to eat only well cooked pork. While the trichina is not in all pork, there is no means of telling when it exists and thorough cooking Is the only means of certain safety.

B. FORSYTHE PROVED A REAL FIRE HERO
Scaled Ladder to Roof of Burning Kitchen and Made Successful Fight Against Flames. The courageous work of B. Forsythe saved the summer kitchen and. probably the entire residence property of Larkin Potts, in the northwest part of Rensselaer, this Thursday morning. Mrs. Potts was canning fruit in the summer kitchen and some paper behind the stove eaught fire and ascended to the roof by burning the old newspapers from the falls.' Mr, Forsythe happened to be going by the house in his automobile, returning from a trip to his farm, and saw the flames issuing from the roof. Mr. and Mrs. Potts had also discovered the flames, and having no telephone by which to call out the fire department, were making an effort to fight the fire and to rescue the things from the kitchen. Mr. Forsythe scaled a ladder to the roof of the kitchen and single handed assailed tlje flames. Buckets of water were passed to him and he soon had the fire under control. His work was heartily commended by neighbors, who were surprised to find him such an adept at fire fighting. r - ; Mr. Potts suffered some severe burhs about his hands while trying to save some things from the kitchen. / ■ . . »li. i 4- ■
