The vote was by ballot and resulted in Dr. Miles re ceiving three votes, Dr. C. E. Cashatt one, and Dr. R. T. Mclntirc, one vote. According to the action of the board several months ago when the matter of school physician was under discussion, the salary will bo "15 a month. The MeKinley school building was formally accepted from tho contractors, Snook & Travel-, and tho final payment of $S1S ordered. Tho total cost of the building is $22,503. The lot cost r,000. Final acceptance of the stage was also made by the board and the contractor L. C. Dennison was ordered paid the amount of $367..'j0. Bids for tho extension of the two fire escapes of tho High school building were received, one for $300 and the other $275. Tho Hoard was rather in clined to think the figures excessive, especially as the present fire escapes extend to within 12 feet of the ground. Tho High school student body ad dressed a letter to tho board express ing regrets that the ventilating belt had been stolen, but as tho belt Una been later returned, the matter was dropped. Tho Snikpoh dramatic society also wrote a few nice things to the board, expressing their delight with the new stago in the auditorium. The request for stage scenery, which included an out door sceno nnd flys, a parlor scene, street scene, garden scene and also a front curtain and a stereoptienn screen was not noted upon. The uso of the auditorium for outside shows and entertainments is not especi ally favored by the board. A request hail been made from one of tho town organizations for the' use of the stage and auditorium, for which a charge would be made. The matter of as to whether tho school auditorium will be open for entertainments other than thoso of tho schools will bo taken up at the next meeting of the board. A cafeteria may bo established in the high school, under the management of Miss Bertha Edwards aud the girls of tho domestic science course. While no definite action was taken, yet it was referred to the committee on supplies, Hnrley O. White and E. T. Barnes, with power to act. As this committee is inclined to favor tho cafeteria idea for non lunches, the chances aro that with tho beginning of the next sem ester, the cafeteria plan will be tried out. , . . . Tho girls of the three junior high schools in the domestic science depart ments aro in need of clocks in order that thev may properly time their cook ing. This was also referred to the supplies committee with power to act. The question ns to how long the high ...hnnl lmiUillff RllOllld be OUCH of CVCI1- ings for the various entertainments nnd school activities was up for general discussion. The general opinion was that lights should be out at least by 10:15 0r 10:30 o'clock, unless a special entertainment was on. At their next meeting the board will again take up tho question of the closing hour for evening rehearsals or entertainments. In order to have one party personally responsible for the custody of the city hall, in ordinance will lie introduced at the session ot mo en,y emim-n .lnv liiuht. making the custodian.

Whilo the ideal of the super-ninn is no doubt the great inspira tion in the philosophy of Friedrich Nietzsche, the Oermnii philosopher, yet it is by no means original with that radical thinker, but forms tho substrat um of all philosophy and is the very light o ft lie promise of the philosophical teachings -ot Jesus, ns well ns other great leaders.
