The Die Besserung soclety at the high school is not a German society, as_noted, in Tuesday's paper. The name of the society is German and means decorating, for which the society was organized, as the different classes give maney to this society; of which everyone in school is a mem- ber, and the society buys pictures to Three Cases in Police Court. __ There were four cases brought before Bates pleaded guilty of being in t danger of falling into the of vice.

Most of the larger enterprises of the school are brought about through the efforts of Die Besserung and patriotic worlk, as that pertaining to the Red |Cross, Liberty bonds, and Thrift stamps more than anything else.

They seem to think iron is iron, on the same theory that a potato would be a potato wheth. er cooked or raw, entively ignoring the fact that the cooking process makes certain important cellular changes in tissues. .No ome would hardly expect to derive the same strength from eat- ing raw potatoes thet he would from eating cooked potatoes, vet according to the opinions of physicians who have made ‘a careful study of the subject, taking raw. unmprepared, metallic iron is'a good deal like eating raw potatoes, Therefore physicians advise those who feel the need of a strength and blood builder to go to their family doctors and obtain a preseription cali- ing for organic iron—Nuxated Iron— and present this to their druggist so that there may be no question_about obtaining the proper article. But if they do not wish to go to the trouble of getting a prescription for Nuxated Iron then be sure to look on_the Iael and see that the words NUXA' are printed thereon.

Mr. Sheldon of the County Farm Bureau touched on such points as milk testing, farm accounts, and fuel. The greatest crop possible for the town can be secured through the sale of wood, of which there is a great abundance here. H. R. Howard, A. G. Knowles, A. M. Heck. and R. C.
