INDIANA SCHOOL HANK Some years ago Indiana asserted that its schools ranked with • th* best in the nation Die Russell Sage Foundation survey dropped them low in the list. It created discussion, partly for the reason that it. set up an arbitrary standard by which the schools ranked. There was no wav of showing that the individual pupil lacked proper instruction or that the teachers were not doing adequate work, but there was a disposition to point to the various states—lndiana among them—as having failed to do all that was deemed necessary in providing educational facilities. Since then, Indiana has been trying to regain such ground as some of the experts fancied had been lost. In connection with the climb upward, the Indiana Teacher points out that Indiana ranked first in all states in per cent of school term attended, by its students. Indiana had a smaller percentage of absences than any other state, the figures for this state being 7.7 per cent. Maine was next with 11.5 per cent, then Oregon with 12.4 per cent. Wisconsin. New Hampshire, Massachussetts, New York, Ohio. Vermont and Texas followed. “Such a showing,” says the Indiana Teacher, “can only be accounted for the practicability of our (school attendance) law, sie alertness of our ’attendance officres and teachers, and the popular belief in education by our citizens.’’ The Indiana Teacher also shows ’that of the forty eight states, Indiana ranked third with 23.1 percentage of the total enrollment in high schools. California was first with 25.3 per cent, and Wisconsin second with 23.4 per cent. “Indiana ranks first,” says the Teacher, "among the forty-eight states’ in the number enrolled in the fourth year of the high school for every hundred pupils enrolled in the first grade. Indiana has tweny-nine high school seniors for every hundred first gradqrs. Op the same basis, California has twen-ty-one, New York has eighteen and New Jersey thirteen.” Thus, in some way, it appears Indiana is climbing back to the position its schools once occupied. o TORN AND POTATO DISPLAY All indications point to the largest exhibit of corn and potatoes grown by Indiana 4-H club members at the State Show January 14 to 18 that has ever been shown at Purdue University. Potato club members will probably have 300 to 400 pecks of potatoes and will .compete for five scholarships to Purdue. These scholarships will amount to about $250 each. This exhibit will be made up of about 150 exhibits of early potatoes and probably even more late potatoes. Early Chios and Rural New Yorkers are the predominating varieties. Many local shows have been held over the state the last two months and the best exhibits from these shows have been ford warded to the state show. Although late potatoes in the central part of the; state were hurt by the dry weather, the northern part of the state had almost ideal weather conditions and has measured up some high yields. The corn show is expected to be larger than last year. Having been represented at the International with 20 prize winners in Regions 7 and 8, among which was the junior grand champion ten ears of corn shown by Ralph Troyer, Lafontaine, it is believed that there will be great interest in the club corn class this year. Ribbons up to fifteen' places for each of the five sections in the state and + 550.00 in cash offered by the State Corn Growers Association await the winners in the Corn dlub Class. In addition to these, five scholarships are offered in corn the same as those offered in potatoes. — o— See “The Student. Prince,” starring Ramon Navarro and Norma Shearer, a JO-reel special.

As a result, the barriers restricting immigration to this -country will be let down,.insofar as Canada is concerned. For instances members of any European country whose quota is exhausted may migrate to Canada, and after living there for a few months on the plea that he wishes to commute to the United States for business reasons, may apply for admission to this country. Once in this country, he has innumerable means of escaping the eye of the immigration’ inspector, although he should re 7 turn to Canada every night, according to the ruling. COMPLICATION OF AILMENTS ROUTED BY NEW KONJOLA; Gives Voluntary Endorsement After This Remedy Triumphs Over Yea rs of Suffering f ■ I MRS. FRANK FULLER Glorious health and new life energy came as a reward to Mrs. Frank Fuller, R- R. No. 3. Warsaw, Indiana, for her faith in Konjola. Her experience with this famous remedy should give new hope and encouragement to those now suffering’ from disorders of the stomach, liver, kidneys and bowels, or rheumatism neuritis and nervousness. Happy in new health she ays: “After nine.years of suffering from disordered kidneys and the effects of chronic constipation. I had little hope of ever being entirely well again. „ My whole system was so full of aches and pains, especially during the past two years when rheumatism settled in my jonits, that I could not even lay comfortably in bed at night. Sometimes the next morning I would feel even more miserable than the night before. Life was hardly worth living, but now I can hardly realize that I ever had a sick day in my life. A treatment of Konjola banished all this misery and restored my kidneys and bowels to a more normal and regular/ condition. Rheumatic pains have ed entirely. Sound sleep comes over me at night and I feel fine the next morning. Yes, Konjola is worthy of all the praise it is getting. Konjola is sold in Syracuse at Thornburg’s drug store and by all the best druggists in all -towns throughout this entire j section. 1

might almost say that there IJO is a brace and a bit of satire in the following answer recently published in a New York newspaper to the query: “What is the best way to open a can of sauer-, kraut juice?” addressed to “J. Scanlon, Pres., Sauerkraut League.” The answer read: “This is apparently a catch question intended to trap our Free Legal Bureau. We hope our readers will keep this in mind, as there is apparently a movement on foot — launched by our enemies — to show that our legal advice to the people is a fraud. We expected some dastardly move like this, and are prepared to meet it. As everybody knows, the best way to open a can of sauerkraut juice is to hold the can firmly between the kne’s and use an ordinary brace and bi' If the can slips, you have

Chill the can in the ice box, and serve its contents icy cold. Kraut Cocktail: Mix two tablespoons tomato catsup, one-half tablespoon Worcestershire Sauce, one-half tablespoon sauerkraut juice and one-half tablespoon sugar. Add a small ball of sauerkraut to a sherbet glass of this sauce mixture. Garnish with a spray of parsley, and serve with celery and salted soda wafers. ’
