There is quite a shortage of teachers over the county and several trustees are reported to be looking for more teachers. George Marr was down from DeMotte today. The big attraction for the people in northern Jasper this week is the Kankakee fair. It is probable, however, that they will* divide their time with Rensselaer, as the carnival here has plenty of fine attractions for their entertainment. Jake Moore has decided to retire from the dry cleaning business in which he has been engaged for some time, in order to accept a position in the Model Clothing Store, where he will work during the absence of the proprietor, Simon Leopold, who will leave next Monday for a sanitarium at Ottawa, 111.
