The car, a Chrysler, was wrecked and the hood left hanging on the load of wood. No one was injured but all were bruised. The wagon and harness were both com pletely wrecked. The team ran away with the front part of the wagon, wood flying in all directions and just how anyone escaped ser ious injury is a miracle.

Calkins has been prevailed upon to run and will probably not have any opposi tion or at least shnuld not He has been on the board the past three years and has handled the position as capably as anyone could have. The only criticism heard was re garding the gymnasium, the appear ance of which is displeasing to many, but Mr. Calkins was only one member of a committee of five, each of whom is equally culpable for the error, which apparently consists of having expended too great a sum on the roof which does have the appearance of a dairy barn and is lacking in floor space for showers and such facilities but, so be it. Tis done and the keen interest Mr. Calkins has taken in the school, having attended every board meet ing, should overbalance by far the error of which Mr. Calkins was only one-fifth responsible. Harrv Murchie of Seaside was a business visitor here this week. Mr. and Mrs. Van Meter of Mess ner are parents of a fine baby daughter who arrived Sunday.

Rhea Creek Nutrition Meeting Well Received Miss Lucy Case, Extension Nutri tion Specialist has just completed the third of a series of meetings held at the Rhea Creek Grange un der the supervision of the County Agent and the Home Economics club of the Rhea Creek Grange. These meeting were well attended and much interest was shown by the women of the community. At each meeting a demonstration of some kind was put on in which the ladies helped prepare the dishes and each aftrenoon Miss Case gave a talk on subject that would help the house wives in more systematic and scien tific planning of meals and dishes. Probably the most Important thing to come out of these meet ings was the appointment of three ladies in each of the communities to try and have hot lunches served to all children not being able to go home for a warm lunch each day. The committees have been notified and are planning the work at the present time. Any other commun ities desirous of this work on nu trition or clothing especially, should get in touch with the County Agent immediately so that arrangements may be made for scheduling such meetings for next fall and winter.
