TCro. Barnes. San Antonio, Tex.,
writes: "Foley's Honey and Tar Is
the best cough remedy in the world
It has been worth )50.00 a bottle to
me. I had 'the flu' followed by pneu
monia, which left me weak, with
persistent cough. ' I needed rest and
sleep, which I was unable to get.
Some one advised Foley's Honey and
Tar.. I began taking it that very
night. Before bed time I noticed re
lief, and that night had a sound sleep
and perfect night's rest, the first
since the beginning of the flu. I have
completely recovered and do not
cougbt at all. It cost me only f 1.20
to cure that obstinate cough with
Foley's Honey and Tar. Let all who
read this letter try Foley's." For

TIME IN SCHOOLS
'. 'The principals of tlio liittlt il
century schools of the city met iu the
suiwriiitendeiit's office Kridav to dis
miss problems iu eolnici'tiou with the
schools. AmoiiK those discussed was
the Question of how best to overcome
tho situation caused bv the two en
forced vacations. THu folluwini; re
port was adopted from tlio sucoinl
committee: s
; To tho Honorable Hoard of tiilu.cn
' lion mid Patrons of the Medford
' 1 Citv Schools :
'We. the principals of vonr schools,
fcul keenly tlie-ernvitv of the situa
tion caused bv (lie two enforced vn-
cntious. We realize the lmmlicno to
loverv mmil niul student should we bo
o oompleto the venrH-work
and make the usual promotions. It

press of lirnetifnllv cverv child and

hitch school. The uioncv lost bv stu
dents nut bciiut nble to work, these
few Saturdays would not compare to
hat would be lost to them bv having
to moke up a semester's schooling.
Stake Vp Lost Time
The holilins over of these two class
es will likclv cause great delay and
will no doubt result .in retarding the
progress of manv beyond repair. Kn
tcrinsr high school or the colleges and
universities in mid year is not as sat.
isfiietorv as to enter iu tho fall. It
would cause tho large eighth grades
to enter high school in mid-year here
after and would almost force us to
hold our high .school, graduations in
mid venr for some time to come, both
conditions being undesirable. It is
undesirnblo to have lurge mid-venr
classes entering high school because
most of the subjects are full venr sub
jects und tho state course of study
is more csuccinllv olanncd for contin
ued work ruther Hum being disturbed
bv long vacation. It also disrupts
tho organization of the high school
and usually would result in the noccs
sitv of more instructors to meet the
situation, thus adding extra expense
to the district
It is not the intention of the schools
to double up on the work for each duv.
We believe that the dnv Ik long enough
and that the students should not be
asked to take mora subject matter in
the1 duilv lessons. I udcr the plan
which has been almost unanimously
agreed to bv vour teaching force, and
which is hereby, submitted to the
board of education' and the patrons
of the schools for consideration, tho
year's work mav be completed and the
usual promotions made if no more va
cations be nccessnrv. The nsiiiil
amount of subject .mutter for each
day would be given as the usual niiin
Iter of hours per vepr would be prac
tically made up.- .
To Teach Saturdays
After the first enforced vacntion
the work missed, which was 30 school
dnys, was to be made up as follows:
"Moved by Dr. Kiddell and seconded
by Palmer that the superintendent bo
authorized to continue school for the
bulnncc of tho year as at present: that
the holiday vacation be eliminated
with tho exception of Christmas and
New Year's days arid that the lost
time-be mode up bv some intensive
teaching, bv the teaching of essen
tials, and bv teaching alternate Sat
urdays during the months of January
and February." (to'- ninke up one
week.) "and the extension of tho
school period at the close of the venr
ior three weeks." This would have
ended school upon June 13th.
, You can see bv this sclienio that 20
school days were provided for and
that but 10 days remained to be pro
vided for bv tho teaching of essen
tials and intensive instruction which
could very easily hove, been accom
plished. Thus, you may see. 'no great
inconvenience or handiaao would have
prevailed. Hut vou sov. "How are we
