This suddem announcement by o L it Ernst of the Board of Bduca- tion ‘broughit forth ail'sorts of comments. 4 4 celwed -éne of the principals, ' with . a prophetis |vision, - made this remark:' “The mob In Caesar is like a May day affair compared to what will follow this announcernent.” Another outburst was: “We all helped to elect this Board of Education, and thig 1s what we get.” President Emst declared he would not sign.the warrants until “after the work had been done,” which would be on Sat- urday, Jupe 19. The board will meet on Monday, June 21, to approve the payroll and the teachers will be paid on the fol- lowing day. It 1s generally agreed that Mr. Hrnst is acting within the law. . Hummel Says the Senile Goober Has No Pl_a.ie in Parks “All peanuts sold in the public parks this season must be within the require- ments of the pure food laws."—Park Commissioner Hummel.

A mut is but a nut, and never can be more, but the vendor of a senfle & goober makes Hummel very sbre. His S e QAT dictum is law and his orders just as | brief, and the man who'd vend unworthy | nuts will surely come to grief. Place a crown upon the peanut and §ive Joo & credit mark; it's time to rout the unkind churl who'd sell peanuts in the dark.
