The school children of today ?.re Joint heirs to all the schools and to all the educational and scientific discoveries of the ages. Upon this broad and modprn foundation every child may build and expand and deelon mentally, to the limits of his or her endeavor and capacity. No claim is made that the American public school haa reached its pinnacle of achievement, nor that our greater educational institutions have attained perfection. Not so.

It was located in what is now known as District 10, and Jerry Spence was the first teacher. The present school building was opened in tho fall of 1917. It had been expected that the building would have been ready for occupancy in 1916, but there was a delay in construction. The equipment was not completed until the summer of 1917. Superintendent L. F. Schieser says: "When the present school superceded the old regime nine rural schools were

consolidated and the two high schools which were formerly at Eldorado and West Manchester are now abandoned. Because the new building was not readv the high school was organized at Eldorado in the fall of 1916, the first year of the Monroe course being completed at that point, while awaiting the finishing of this structure. The cost of the building was $55,000, without equipment." It is a two-story and full basement structure. Teachers at Monroe School.

If you want epsom salts without the awful taste and nausea, ask your druggist for a handy package of "Epsonade Salts"- which looks and acts exactly like epsom salts, because it is real epsom salts combined with fruit derivative salts, giving It. the taste of sparkling lemonade. Take a tablespoonful in a glass of cold water whenever you feel bilious headachy or constipated. "Epsonade Salts" is the much talked of discovery of the American Epsom Association. Advertisement.

"Honor Thy Mother" Every man or woman who is so fortunate as to have a mother still living should not fail to remember her on "MOTHER'S DAY," Sunday, May Eighth A. Suggestion: Flowers, a letter, a telegram, or a visit to your mother, are splendid means by which to carry out the beautiful spirit of the day. In the past, however, many have gone still farther; remembering that their mothers no longer possess the strength or endurance of youth, and yet still have the burdens of housekeeping to support, these sons and daughters have sent Hoovers to relieve their mothers of the cleaning drudgery for the rest of their days. We commend the suggestion to others. For certainly there is no gift of finer sentiment than this. And The Hoover is the best of all electric cleaners, for it alone beats as it sweeps, as it cleans, and so prolongs the life of rugs. We can arrange terms HOOVER
