In the first place, it down to work at once, dispensing with The importance of correcting physical defects was stressed by Miss Beatrice Kinney, Red Cross school nurse, last night in a talk at Terrill School. Miss Kinney's talk and a musical program were features of the program at a Terrill Parent-Teacher Association. Miss Kinney discussed nutrition and teeth and the effect cf diseased tonsils and decayed teeth on a child's health.

She told that 237 first graders in Moberly schools last year 24 were "repeaters" and that 20 per cent or the defects among the entire group were among these 24. "Since it costs $70 a year to keep a child in school, it would pay the state to have defects corrected even at the high estimate," Miss Kinney declared. "A tonsillectomy costs about 535, glasses not more than $15, and tho yearly dentist bill should not exceed 58 or 510. So from a financial viewpoint, we would be ahead if we had all theso defects corrected ii correcting them enabled a child to advance in school as he should." Music by Mr. and Mrs.

A. Spohrer announced today. It won't be long for starting next Tuesday morning 145 upper division college students will plunge into four days of half year examinations. Each examination will cover periods averaging from two to three hours, with several to require four hours for completion. Upper division classwork will end with the close of school next Monday afternoon.

The usual six weeks examination for lower division students will be held sometime next week during the regular class period.

W. Rutherford, 82, well known Randolph countisj-, died at his home at the east edge of Huntsville last night at 10 o'clocK following an illness of about three months. He had been in poor health for several years. Mr. Rutherford was born in Weardale, Durham county, England, With his wife, who died in 1920, he, with about twenty other families settled in Randolph county.

Mr. Rutherford had been a coal miner practically all of his life. 2 Wabash Divisions Combined Here (Continued Prom second relief dispatcher, working three days a week. This is the only curtailment in employment of dispatchers, except for the former Springfield men, J. H.

And then having knuckled down to business it actually has accomplished something of national consequence without weeks and months of cheap oratory, political bartering and futile debate, Search of the records will disclose few instances of action by congress on controversial issues during the two or three initial weeks of a new session. Until this year there seemed to be a tradition forbidding such a thing. May the present congress smash many more bad traditions.

It is to be hoped that these few weeks have not been the calm before the storm. With a Democratic majority in the house, a Republican majority in the senate, Republican administration and a presidential election less than a year off, anything but "peace Washington, good will toward the other side," was to be expected. The situation is one better fitted for playing national politics than for passing helpful national legislation. But congress may continue to spring agreeable surprises upon the nation. All sides may decide that will be plenty of time for politics after this grave nat- ional emergency has been met as far as it is the poor power of congress to do so.

It would not go well with the political party even suspected by ihe people of obstructing urgent measures designed to relieve existing economic and financial problems. WHAT JAPAN HAS GAINED Does imperialism pay? To an outsider it" doesn't seem to have paid Japan so far in her Manchurian adventure. The principal fruits to date have been a political crisis requiring a change of government and a financial crisis pushing the country off the gold standard. Along with these quick reactions Japan has won the almost unanimous disapproval and distrust of other nations by her disregard of treaty pledges. By her aggression against China she has suffered a more practical set-back, in the loss of two-thirds of her trade in that country and prospect of the Chinese boycott on Japanese goods continuing indefinitely.

Another such victory as Japan's triumphal sweep through Manchuria, and she will be morally and financially bankrupt.

"When you pass a law which a great portion of the people believe is oppressive, you arc bound to have trouble enforcing it." The former senator sounded keynotes of simplification of government at home and a "hands off" foreign policy. "These beneficent objects will never be accomplished by tho present Republican body," he said. "The remedy fundamentally must be a return to old ideas of government." He then combined three sections of English and French classes, in which about 100 students are enrolled in each. Students have already register- ed for the second semester and work of arranging their courses now under way.

But few changes will a to be a Mr. Spohrer believes. The course cards will be distributed cither next Friday or next Monday. Classes of the new semester will get under way Monday, January IS.

He is survived by three daughters, Miss Mary Rutherford, of the home, Mrs. B. H. Evans, of Detroit, and Airs. Will Vaughn, of Huntsville.

Other Proposals The fifth plank would demand the federal reserve system 110 longer to be the "agent and banker of the stock gambling hells of the nation; sixth, lower the tariffs, and eventually wipe them out; and seventh, restore the doctrine of state sovereignty. Reed charged Hoover with bankrupting- American farmers during the war by fixing wheat pricei balow levels prevailing in the world market.

VALUATIONS CUT IN MONROE COUNTY 31,209,510 Slash on Real Estate and $480,920 in Personal Property The valuation placed on Monroe County property this year is $1.600,430 less than it was in 1930, according to the books of the county assessor, John Wilson, the Paris Appeal reports. The decrease represents a 31,209,510 lowering of re al estate assessments and treasure hunt through the. 92 in personal property val- What Other Editors Say HOOVER CAN'T BE ELECTED Exaggeration is expected of politicians and circus barkers.

The customers like it, look for it and are so accustomed to it that precise advertising of a candidate or a side-show curiosity would arouse instant suspicion. The show does not have to come up to specifications. As long as the clientele senses- some resemblance between the promises and the performance, nobody feels cheated. Once, however, the customer concludes that he has been duped, he will demand his money back and take his trade elsewhere. Mr.

Hoover's best friends agree that he was badly oversold at the peak of an inflationary period and that the subsequent decline in values has made the contrast between the advertising that went with him and what he has been able to deliver, conspicuous to the point of painfulness. That the customers aro walking out and transferring their patronage to Mr. Hoover's competitors is amply evident from a number of developments, not the least of which are the past two elections.

They entered the semi-finals in the late afternoon, pitted against Mendon, with Keytesville arrayed against Brunswick and Keytesville emerged the victors and entered the finals at night and the local team won.

In ths afternoon, tho junior team was defeated at Moberly in their first out-of-town game and at night the senior team met its first defeat of the indoor season at the hands of Armstrong. The score was 16 to 15. The game- was very fast and hard fought throughout, but the Armstrong lead was never threatened. A return engagement on the local court will be played later in the month.

Walker, of Fayctte, Missouri, has been Judge of the Ninth Judicial Circuit for the past sixteen years, and, "Whereas, we, members of Randolph County, Missouri Bar Association during that time have been acquainted with his ability as a lawyer, his Judicial Temperament, and his sterling character as a man, and, "Whereas, Judge W.

The present force of telegraphers in the Moberly office, probably will remain as it is, it was said, but one car distributor later will be eliminated. This will be H. L. Smith, who probably will exercise his seniority either on the Mobcrly or Decatur divisions. Decatur Second Largest The Decatur division will be second in mileage, with a total of 653.S.

The Montpelier division, to which Superintendent Messmorc is assigned, is third with 604.9 miles of track, but it is an extremely important division in volume of traffic, ranking next to Decatur in that respect. With the transfer of formei Springfield division lines to Decatur, the 21 officials and employes who camo to Moberly from Springfield last September will leave Moberly to take their place on the Decatur division seniority roster. The consolidation also will cause changes in the Moberly dispatcher's, engineer's, and accountant's office and in the clerical forces, but these will involve mainly a shifting around, rather than laying off of employes here. The reorganization is effected by a process of "bumping," according to seniority, and in accordance with agreements between the railroad management and employes' organizations. The orders for the consolidation were transmitted yesterday at a meeting of executives at St.

Louis, which was attended by both Superintendents Greenland and Messmore. Change at Stanberry various rooms of the house yielded for Mrs. Lee a shower of housekeeping articles on each of which was a clove rhyme containing the good wishes of the giver. Mrs. U.
