icliool Sotes,

By Co. Supt. Robt E Bovert. Eleven townships have held their preliminary institutes - 1 1 meetings wer- good, oom exceptionally gold The twelfth township will hold its preliminary institute Saturday at Ce.os tine and it is safe to pradto that this will be as enfcruui isMc meeting as the resfe. The teachers are looking fcx'vsard to a peasant and progtable school year, not only for themseives but for the pupils. Q'iite a number of beginning teachers are in the ranks this year, and it behooves them to bee that they make a success of their choosen work. Here is wishing that it may be a year of unbounded success and that their good work may be reported be yond their school districts and townships. Some of the affairs the state department has asked theschoo's not to overlook are Fire Prevention Day, Riley Day and the adoption of a war text for high chools and the teaching of this ubject at least twice a week. The state department albO insists upon teachers cooperation to the full extent of their power in furthering the plans of the State Council of Defense, not only in the high school but in the district school as well. This organization will make its wishes known from time to time chreugh the pressThe announcement of the Indiana State Teachers' Association states that this meeH will be held at Indianpoiis Nov 1 -3 1917. The committee will s h ve a greatvprognam reody for distribution We are informed that they have secured the following: Cora Wilson Stewart, President of the Kentucky Illiteracy Com mission; Mary C. 0. Bedford, President of the National G luca tional Association; Hon. Francis Neilson, former member of British Parliament; Prinoeu Ridziwell. neice of Balzic, Charles Gorst.

Oommu ii:v siut? will be a greU fea'ure of the meeting litre's hoping that Dubois County wiU be oa the Honor Roll, rh? enrollment fee being $1,00 I was decidod by a number of trustees that this moeting might be attended instead of the Evarsville meeting if such is desired However, the Evansville meeting which comes at Thanks i'ving tim, should have a lnrge lepresen-.a tion of Dubois County teachers and it is a meeting that deserves such.

An Appeal For a Go. less ' Kit. Camp Taylor Sept. 29, J 917 Mr, Ben Doane, Editor Jasper Courier. Dear Sir: You are no doubt aware from the newspapers that every company in Gamp Taylor is getting up a company or messkit fund- This fund will be used for athletics, extra mess and the petty amusements in which soldiers are allowed to indulge Jt is almost a necessity for such an organization as this, to which the Dubois county men belong. Company G, 33541 Infrantry is m?de up exclusively of men from Dubois, Pt rry and Crawford counties, so it naturally fails upon the people of these counties to ma ice this sacrifice for the boys who represent them in this war. We have written to Mr W S. Hunter and he will, we trust, take charge of this matter, call a meeting, appoint committies and supervise the collecting- of this fund. We fully realize that yo3 and your paper can greatly ad in bringing this to a successful con cludon, and we ask that you give this fund the support of your pa per. Such a letter as this is going forward to almost ever ; newspaper in the three counties and w; feel confident that everyone will co operate wich the commutes of their respective towns. Witn th' hope of receiving a favorabt1 reply from ou and with a eling of confidence that Jp: and vicinitv, with the aid of ;v0'ir .publicity, will do its full share, we beg to r -main always, Hie Bos from Jasper. Please address your reply to: Private 0 C Spraner, Company G. 335th' Infantry, Camp Taylor. Ky.

is of the Peculiar Lines That Di

vide Two Stater. If you will look onthe map oi New England you will" see two curious irregularities in the diyiding line between Massachusetts and Connecticut. One of them is m Granby township, a little northwest of Hartford, and the other in Enfield township, on the Connecticut river, south of Springfield. It 33 a standing conundrum why, so long ys the boundary is imaginary, they did not make it straight instead of. orooked. But thereby hangs a tale. Those two little jogs on tho map are monuments to human obstinac and to the persistency which is one of the chief traits of the 4 Yankee character. The ancestors of the farmers who own those little spots of ground preferred to live in Massachusetts rather than in Connecticut and fought for their preference iKitil they had their way. The controversy begsm. in 1713 and continued for 112 years before it was finally decided. In 1724 the question was appealed to England, but the government was so much engrossed in the Seven Years' war that it was never brought to the attention of the crown. Up to the outbreak of the Kevolufcion both states continued to levy taxes and Bend notices of fast days and elections to the farmers who occupied the land, and there is no record oi how thejr avoided one or whefchei they paid both. Latej, however, they voted and paid taxes in Mass a chusetts only, notwithstanding the protest of the county authorities ii Connecticut. In 1793, after peaci was -lestored, both states appointed commissioners, hut the dispute wa carried on until 1804, when a coir promise was reached. There wot several similar disputes between t! two, states besides those which .o appear upon the map, and an agro ment was reached by which Mas? chusetts consented to surrender hi claim to a strip of territory i Woodstock and Sufneld township provided Connecticut would yiel her claims to the other tracts ii dispute. X'o action, however, wastaken upon the report. In 1810 tiie controversy was revived by some legal proceeding, and another commission was appointed but if it ever reached a conclusior there is no record to be found. In 1820 a third commission was intrusted with the settlement, and after two years they decided upon the present boundary line, which was adopted by the legislature oi

both states. .Exchange.

LABOR AND CAPITAL MUST PATCH UP DIFFERENCES

Better Understanding Qetween the Two Factors Essential to Business Prosperity.

"More than anything else In this country we need a better understanding between capital and labor," say? George E. Roberts, former director of the United States mint. "The wage earner tuust come to see that the problem of increasing: production and lowering costs is his problem as well as the employer's. An appeal must somehow be made to his spirit, to his creative powers, which will enlist Ws witling eo-operation and develop his latent capabilities. "We have the highest wage scale In the world, and we want It to be still higher, but you cannot make wages higher by increasing production costs. Higher costs and prices simply go around to the rear entrance and settle down on the same premises." Industrial Conservation, Neio York,

MUST ELECT BUSINESS MEN. Country Needs Them as Officeholders, Says E. W. Rice. "If our jjovprnment is to continue to regulate business." says E. W. Kice, president of the General Electric company, -it is essential that the men we elect to the legislatures and to government offices should be possessed of accurate know led ire of modern business. "Modern business is highly complex. Our political bodies as at present constituted cannot possibly administer such a delicate and intricate situation with success. "It is also vital that we should take an interest in those whom we select to represcntus in our government offices." Industrial Cowervation, New York.

WHY IS INDUSTRY LIKE A THREE LEGGED STOOL?

For a Solution of the Conundrum Read the Following Terse Interviews. Andrew Carnegie, who since his re tiremeut from active life has devoted himself to the study of human relations, was recently asked which he considered the most important factor in industry hi hor. capital or brains? The canny Scot replied, with a merry twinkle in his' eye : . "Which is the most important leg of a three legged stool V" For all the factors in industry there is a tabloid aernion in the steel man's terse reply, a sermon which brings home more effectively than any lengthy discussion could possibly do, the interdependence of employers and employees and the necessity for their working together with the public to protect the prosperity of industry. But Mr. Carnegie iagbnly one of the many authorities who have laid stress upon this theme. Judge Elbert H. Gary, chairman of the board of directors of tlie Uitited States Steel corporation and president of the American Iron and Steel institute, recently expressed the Bame idea from another viewpoint namely, the value of loyalty in employees and the necessity for ctitivating this loyalty. . "It is well" said Judge Gary, "for the large number of employers to bear in mind that they cannot successfully carry on their affairs without having the labor and loyalty of their employees. The "work of multitudes will always be needed for the successful operation of business, but It is clear that the skilled labwer or the highly educated or experitMioed employees would not without abundant capital accomplish pronounced success." In dustriaV Conner Vitium. Sew York,

BETTERED CONDITIONS OHE TO EMPLOYERS

Demagogue Deserves No Oredit Foi Improving the Lot of the Wag Earner, S3ys Manufacturer. "Manufacturers as a rule are not opposed to the highest wages consistent with personal efficiency, decent hours and the necessary provisions of social legislation," says a prominent Milwaukee manufacturer "Employers as a class have have come to realize that the contented, healthy workman is the most efficient workman and that in consequence high wages, reasonable hours, good 'regulation for safety, sanitation, welfare, etc.. are spleudid investments. "The trouble Is that the demagogue does not give the manufacturer credit for bringing about better conditions, hut with silvery tongued oratory leads he workman into pitfalls from which h is unabte to recover for years. Un doubtedly every employee can do better by stating any grievance which he may have to his employer instead of preaching it ro m'en who haveo inter est in him r in the industry in which he is working."- Industrial Conservation. New York.

CONSERVATION TRUTHS.

Capital has found that it is good business to be honest with labor, and the time is now ripe for labor to adopt the same businesslike attitude to capital. Flow can we hope to give stability to our great national asset, industry. when from 1909 to 191G our state and national assrubltes enacted 7S.74S new statutes, many of which related to business? Neither employer nor employee can sxpect benefits from a business where the balance, sheet does not ihow dol lars and cents to pay with
