BUY IT NOW!
Yes, the crowning typewriter triumph is here!
IT IS JUST OUT AND COMES YEARS BEFORE EXPERTS EXPECTED IT.
For makers have striven a life-time to attain this ideal machine. And Oliver has won
again, as we scored when we gave the world its first visible writing.
There is truly no other typewriter on earth like this new Oliver "9." Think of a
touch so light that the tread of a kitten will run the keys!
CAUTION!
The new-day advances that come alone on
this machine are all controlled by Oliver.
Even our own previous models famous in
their day never had the Optional Duplex
Shift. .
It puts the whole control of 84 letters and
characters In the little fingers of the right and
left hands. And It lets you write them all
with 28 keys, the least to operate of any
standard typewriter made.
TIiuh" writers of all other machines can
Immediately run the Oliver Number "0" with
nnre speed and grenter Cse.
WARNING!
- This brilliant new Oliver comes at the oM
tlme price. It costs no more than lesser
makes now out-of-date when compared with
this discovery.
For while the Oliver's splendid new fea
tures are costly we have equalized the added
expense to us by simplifying construction.
Resolve right now to see this great
achievement before you spend a dollar for any
typewriter. If you are using some other
make you will want to see how much more this
one does.
If you are using an Oliver, it naturally
follows that you want the fjnest model.
17 CENTS A DAY! Remembo.- this brand-new Oliver "9" is the greatest value ever given In a
" typewriter. It has all our previous special inventions visible writing, auto
matic spacer, 6 -ounce touch plus the Optional Duplex Shift. Selective Color Attachment, and all
these other new-day features. T
Yet we have decided to sell it to everyone everywhere on our famous payment plan 17 emits a
day! Now every user can easily afford to have the world's crack visible writer, with the famous
PRINTYPE, that writes like print, Included 1 KKE if desired.
TODAY Write for Full Details ano- e ln01g the first to know about this marvel of writing
- machines. See why typists, employers, and Individuals every
where are flocking to the Oliver- Just mall a postal at once. No obligation. It's a pleasure for us to
tell you about It. i 4 i

On the 3rd Inst, the writer visited
the school at Lexington. The new j
Duuamg is now complete except a
portion of the fixtures for the do
mestic science department. The
rooms are well lighted, and the light
is regulated by means of Venetian
blinds. In the high school room,
part of the light is furnished by a
sky-light, which .evidentely is quite an
improvement over the steep stairway.
The heat Is furnished by a steam
heating plant. About the only criti
cism that can be offered upon the
building is the lack of continuous
entllation. The manual training de
partment is well equipped. The la
boratories meet the requirements for
a standard school. The work for the
year Is starting off nicely, and the
teachers and pupils are enthusiastic.
On Columbus day, I visited the
school in District No. 38, where I
found Miss Grace Tyler and eight
pupils busy at work. This school
has one of the finest flag poles in the
county, and a fine flag was flying
from the top of the pole. This school
has two standard pictures, and no
doubt will add the third this year,
thus completing the required num
ber.
In the afternoon, I visited the
school In District No. 17. Miss Ina
Johnson is the teacher. The enroll
ment Is 17. An excellent jacket for
the stove has been provided. Good
window boards are also provided thus
making a very good heating and ven
tilating plant. An arrangement has
been made to keep water on the
stove, when it becomes necessary to
have fire, and thus moisture will be
provided for the atmosphere. A good
book-case is provided for the library.
I wish again to emphasize the need
of oiling the floors of the school
rooms. If properly oiled, the dust
nuisance is greatly abated. Then, if
some kind of sweeping compound is
provided there will be but little dust
stirred up. It pays to look after the
sanitary conditions of the school.
The October apportionment of the
school funds has been made. The
per capita apportionment was only
$2.50, but after the second half of the
taxes is turned over to the treasurer,
another apportionment will be made
If your district has not received Its

Adamson Law Results in New Strike
Troubles.
Chicago. Oct. 18 ( Special Reports
from various sections of the country
indicate clearly that the Adamson
Waee Law. which has been menda
clously termed "Eight Hour Law," is
already bringing about additional la
bor troubles. Railroad men who
am not Included In the wage increase
are being met with a refusal on the
cart of the railroads to grant an In
crease in wages on the ground that
the added expense Involved by the
Adamson Law makes an Increase in
wages to the great majority and more
poorly paid classes of railroad em
ployes impossible. St. Paul car men
are approaching a decision to strike,
and reports from Kansas City are to
the effect that 32,000 members of the
six railroad crafts have decided to g6
1 on strike as a result of the Adamson
law.
1 Railroad officials decided at a pre
vious conference they could not grant
the demanded increase of five cents
an hour because of increased operat
ing expense forced upon them by Con
gress in the Adamson Law. As a
counter charge, union workmen ask
why they are not entitled to an in
crease when members of the four
allied trainmen's organizations were
I accorded higher wages.
