Red Brick School
House Wins
Bucyrus, U., Jan. 10.?The little,
red brick school house won a unique
victory over the modern, up-to-date
school house with its d mestie
see in co and vocational training, during
an old-fashioned spelling bo
here, Mrs. E. B. Finley, 87 years oM.
defeating twenty-five graduates of
hivrh schools and colleges. The contest
lasted more than three hours.
Five of Mrs. Finley's opponents
were eliminated when the word "re
r.aissance" was reached. After 17
more rounds the word "virtiginous"
caused seven more to quit. The
word "rendezvous" left only three.
This iin.up lasted almost an hour
and Mrs. Finley was entertaining
fears of a draw when "fortissimo"
saved the day, eliminating h r tw*
opponents. She became so excited
over the "grand finale" however,
'hat she missed the next word, "tuberculosis."
Mrs. Finley is the widow of the
late E. B. Finley, former adjutant
general of Ohoi. For years she was
a teacher in the Bucyrus schools and
iis well known in educational circles.

Strikes Responsible for A
Failure of Company
Baltimore, Jan. 10.?Though ft company,
created to underwrite strike insurnnce,
went into liquidation after a
little more than a year of existence,
it is stated that a large number of
employers, familiar with the plan and
its benefits, are insistent that a new ^
company be formed. The executives
of the old company, therefore, are *
about to organize another one upon a
plan which they say will contain the
best features of the old concern but j.
with certain changes found necessary
through experience.
A widespread series of strikes during
the past year, coupled with business
depression was responsible for
the failure of the old company the ^
former management asserted. ^
It is pointed out that strike insurance
has become standardized in Europe,
where it is claimed, experience |
has proved it not only the practical
means for distributing the money loss
caused by strikes, hut was even more
useful in promoting unity of purpose ^
among employers.
The loonl company was operated on J
a mutual basis with an assessment ^
legally limited to an amount equal
to the annual premium. Specific items
insured by such a plan are the fixed J
charges, that is, all expenses which
necessarily continue whether the plant
is in operation or not.
Premium rates have a wide range.
They vary according to the actual
strike experience of each class of in?
. i _ _ i _ e I
ausiry covering a periou 01 many
years, adjusted with regard to locality
aiul the working conditions found in
each establishment.
From the practical insurance viewpoint.
the contract is really the standard
"Use and Occupancy" insurance
the chief difference being the cause of
loss, which, in this case, is a strike
instead of fire, explosion or other physical
disaster.
Strike insurance, its advocates contend.
is a business necessity to meet
the losses caused by strikes. Besides
furnishing indemnity they argue that
it affords a practicable means of unifying
employers of all industries and
localities in the same way as the labor
unions collectively act for the
benefit of workers. They insist that
it is not conceived in a spirit hostile
to labor, but is a practical balance
wheel between two parties who for
the moment appear unable to agree.
Convincing proof of this was furni <hed,
they declared, by the number of
strikes prevented; the early termina
t.ion of others and unity of purpose
developed among employers.
Basket Ball Notes
The High School basket ball grrdo
eons have just completed thDir
schedule of games. The series o:'
games which were scheduled to be finished
before the holidays, resulted in
a tie between the 9th and 10th grad *s.
This was played off immediately after
the holidays, with the result that the
championship of the High School
went to the 10th grade.
There is a great deal of interest
being shown in basket ball by bfrth
girls and boys. The teams are getting
in shape for the double header, this j
coming Friday afternoon with the
Fiioton High School. The Clinton
boys and girls are coming over to get
revenge for the defeat of 12 to C

L. i i r\ ? % I
m'!iooi contest. uur gins are working
hard; they are eager to get in the
game. They will give a good account
of themselves. The first game will
start promptly at 3 o'clock.
The boys will play immediately after
the girls. This is their first game
this season. We feel sure that they
i will fight hard to win. They have
been putting in some good practice.
The team will make its first appearance
in the new uniforms. Goals are
ready to be erected at the city park
so here the games will be played. A
small admission fee will be charged,
but remember you will get to see a
double header. We want a large crowd

Tokio, .Ian. 10.?All classes of society
have taken up modern dancing
enthusiastically in spite of protests
