Local “5” Faces Two Tough Foes This Week

In Chalmers and Lowell high schools, the Rensselaer high school squad of basketball players in facing two tough opponents, and a brace of victories for the locals will give them a considerable boost up the adder/ S? • Chalmers, runners-up. for the White county chhampionship, will start the week’s hostilities promptly at eight o’clock this evening. 'Hie down state school has a team which is composed of clean-cut, rangy players, a dashing combination which has perfected its team play to such a degree that it has overwhelmed its opponents in most of its encounters during the season. Monticello was only able to defeat this five after a hard struggle, and a win for Rens>selaer will put them on an equal footing with the White county champions. ——., , Lowell will be here on Friday, and although their record is not as impressive as that of Chalmers, they are capable of playing a fast brand of the indoor sport. Whiting fell before this school two weeks ago, indicating reports to the effect that the Lake county school not as weak as they are said to be.

County Educational Notes.

Miss Katie Luther who is teaching in Newton township has been unable to teach for the last two weeks .on account of sickness. She is getting along very nicely now. Her physician, Dr. Johnson, says that she will Se able to resume her work next Monday. Miss Rosabelle Daugherty, las been Substituting for her for about three weeks. Notice has been sent to the teachers and trustees that the State Council of Defense has changed the date of the “War Rally” from February 18th to January 29th. State Superintendent Ellis has issued his request to County Superintendent Sterrett to allow any or all of the teachers to attend this “War Rally” and to receive a day's vfrage for so doing. Consequently any teacher in Jasper county may dismiss on Jan. 29 th (Tuesday without losing any tune provided such teacher attends the “War Rally” that afternoon. There will be no speaking in the forenoon. If too inconvenient teachers need not attend the night session without affecting their day’s pay. Many living in the north end will be compelled to return on the evening trains. The sectional meeting for teachers will be held in the office of the county superintendent. Rev. Krohn has sent in after the blanks to organize his school in Union township in the Junior Bea Cross. Blanks may’ be obtained from the county superintendent. Herbert Powers of Hanging Grove has sent into the office for blanks

also. , The third special institute will be held at Remington on February 23. Prof. John Rettger of the Indiana State Normal at Terre Haute will deliver the two main addresses. Every one is welcome to attend this educational meeting. The patrons of the town of Remington and Carpenter township are earnestly solicited to be present. Prof. Rettger is one of the most fluent and effective speakers on the educational platform. Prof. Wildrick of the Remington schools is very desirous of having a large crowd to hear this man as he himself was largely responsible for this man’s coming. Prof. Wildrick was extremely fortunate in securing an able man like Prof. Rettger. Next Sautrday, Jan. 26th, is the first teachers’ examination of the year. All seniors of commissioned or certified schools are eligible to take this examination at any place in the state after they procure a certificate of good moral character from a trustee or school official who is in a position to certify respecting the character of a senior. Permits are required from the county superintendent before a county superintendent can lawfully allow an experienced teacher to take an examination in another county. An important change has occurred this year, that all prospective as well as old teachers should carefully note. Agriculture, Domestic Science and Music are optional subjects which any applicant may take at the time she takes 'he required subjects. But a license, either state or county,may be made without taking any of these optional subjects. Later the holdqf of such a general license on the required subjects may take a subsequent examination and receive a certificate in one or all of the optional subjects, which, when attached to the regular license legally qualifies the holder to teach the optional subject. This certificate js issued to expire at the end of the year. It does not affect the general average of the previously issued license.

MR. RANDLE COMES TO THE FRONT

Telia His Friends and Neighbors of His Experience. Every Rensselaer resident should read what Mr. Randle says, and follow his example. He has used Doan’s Kidney Pills and speaks from experience. Is there any need to experiment with imitations or untried kidney medicines? Nelson Randle, retired farmer, N. Main St., Rensselaer, says: “I have used Doan’s Kidney Pills at different times when suffering from a lame ' and aching back and other symptoms of disordered kidneys. I got Doan’s at Fendig’s Drug Store and they soon brought relief from the backache and other kidney ailments. I do not know of a case where Doan’s - Kdiney Pills have failed to prove of benefit.” ' Price 60c, at all dealers. Don’t simply ask for a kidney femedy—get Doan’s Kidney Pills —the same that Mr. Randle had. Foster-Milburn Co., Props., Buffalo, N. Y.
