the most serious handicap ever known,
the eud of the season liuds them ia a
most gratifying position as regards or
ganization, equipment and efficiency
largely the result of the system devel
oped by Superintendent Todd to bring
the schools abreast of the times.
From the mechanical department of
the high school, which a year ago was
looked upon as a precarious innovation
under the Smith-Hughes act, comes a
very creditable report. Irofesor Berg

that up to May 1st the. machine shop

expense of ever $2iKM); so that in a
sense the school is to be credited1 with
more than $.'!000 from this source.
There have been three shop classes
with an enrollment of 24; one class
occupying throe hours in the morning,
and the two afternoon class taking
one and one half hours each. In addi
tion to custom work on machine parts
they have overhauled bicycles, motor
cycles ared automobiles of various
makes, and done odd jobs of repairing
for various firms in the city. The con
trolling .aim has been to give tho stu
dents an experience as nearly as possi
ble in hue with the work, ordinarily
djne in a custom shop.

Now that Mayor '. E. Albin has
signified his intention of resigning nt
the meeting of the city council next

boiling, all over the question us to
his successor.

wns hnown that; a mayor would have
to be elected .by the council was Otto
J. Wilson, present alderman from the
third ward.
Mr. Wilson is on old timer iu mat
ters of city business. Before his last
election to the present term of four
years, he hnd served two terms on
the council, first with Mayor Harley
O. White and then with Mayor Walter
E. Keyes.
W. A. Wiest is known to be a re
ceptive candidate. While not making
an effort to sit in the mayor s chair,
it is known that he is not averse to
holding down the job. lie has had
nbout one year's experience in city
affairs as councilman from the sixth
ward and Ira taken an active part
in all important mntters eoming up be
fore the council Mr. Wiest hun been
admitted to the bur, ami is now as
sistant clerk of the Supreme Court.
Ir. K. H. Utter has olsj thrown
hi. hut in the ring. He is now councii
mnn from the second wnrd and wns
elected for the four year term. He
is chairman of the henlth and police
committee, and a such, has been active
j the city's affairs since taking office i
January 6 of this year.
With the three councilmen as re
ceptive candidates for Mr. Albin 'a job,
there has been a suggcytion that the
council might name as mayor some man
who is not a member of the council.
The snggestion has also been made that
the Commercial elub, acting throngs
tho Businesi Men's League, should pre
sent the names of two or three rep
resentative business men and then have
the council elect one as mayor.
There is also a probability that with
