THREE
TO REVIEW FAIR
BUILDING CASE
Action Taken Following All-
Day Hearing of Charges
That Costs Too High.
BODY HAS FULL POWER
An arbitration committee of three will
take up the charges made by the state
board of accounts against the state board
of agriculture and against two con
tractors who erected buildings at the
state fair grounds and a result of the in
ability of the two state boards and the
contractors to agree. The committee will
have full power to make a final settle
ment
The settlement was put in the hands
of the committee following an all-day
hearing before eiaminers of the board of
accounts. J. J. Twiname, a contractor
who made a report on the fair grounds
work, will represent the board of ac
counts. J. W. North, attorney for A. W.
Stoolman of Champaign, 111., one of the
contractors, will represent the con
tractors. The third member will be
named by Mr. North and Mr. Twiname.
BOARD CHARGES
“EXTRAS” TOO HIGH.
The board charged Stoolman with SB,-
723.62 as an excessive charge for “ex
tras" and as a charge for alleged failure
to follow specifications In the construc
tion of the floor of one of the buildings.
Mr. Stoolman insisted that the floor had
been constructed according to specifica
tions, but Mr. Twiname denied this.
Mr. Stoolman also contended that the
“extra” charges were made on a cost
plus basis and that they were fair.
A charge against the Moynahan Con
struction Company of $1,002 will not be
considered at this time as the company
1 was not represented at the hearing.
Mr. North told the examiners that when
i the concern he represented made the
l contract with the state board of agri
i culture, it thought it was dealing with
a private concern and not a concern
under the supervision of the board of
accounts.
“WORKED UNDER
ABNORMAL CONDITIONS.”
Mr. North attacked the charge of the
boaTd of accounts against the contractor
for extras on the theory that the prices
were neeessarilly high because the work
was done under abnormal conditions and
that the contractor was rushed to get the
building ready for occupancy. He said
the labor cost on the Women’s building
was $25,000 higher than estimated and
that labor alone cost $62,000, while the
contract price was only $114,000.
Linton A. Cox. representing the board
of agriculture, told the examiners that
the power to contract for “extras” had
been delegated by the board to the ex
ecutive committee to make frequent
meetings of the board unnecessary. The
board of accounts charged that the ex
ecutive committee did not have this
power.
Jesse Escbbach, chief examiner of the
board of accounts, contended that the
expenditures of the board were illegal
because they were not ordered in a legal
manner. He said he would not admit
that the delegation of power to the ex
ecutive committee made the expenditures
legal.

Out of Frying Pan
Into Fire for Kickers

VINCENNES, Ind., Jan. 15.—Students
of the Vincennes High school who object
ed to the strenuous rules of the principal
relatives to tardiness, complaining that

more severe than in the Vincennes

Easy to Make This }
Pine Cough Remedy j
Thousands of families swear by ito
prompt reoults. Inexpensive.
and saves about $2.
i . . st r ~ ~ ~ ~ it t s Qit ~
You know that pine is used in
nearly all prescriptions and remedies
for coughs. The reason is that pine
contains several peculiar elements that
have a remarkable effect in soothing
and healing the membranes of the
throat and chest.
Pine cough syrups are combinations
of pine and syrup. The “syrup” part
is usually plain sugar syrup.
To make the best pine cough remedy
that money can buy, put 2 5 /o ounces
of Pinex in a pint Dottle, and fill up
with home-made sugar syrup. Or you
can use clarified molasses, honey, or
corn syrup, instead of sugar syrup.
Either way, you make a full pint—more
than-you can buy ready-made for three
times the money. It is pure,, good
and very pleasant—children like it!
You can feel this take hold of a
cough nr cold in a way that means
business. The cough may he dry,
hoarse and tight, or may t>e persist
ently loose from the formation of
phlegm. The cause is the same—in
flamed membranes—and this Pinex and
Syrup combination will stoD. it—
usually in 24 hours or less. Splendid,
too, for bronchial asthma, hoarseness,
or any ordinary throat ailment.
Pinex is a highly concentrated com
pound of genuine Norway pine ex
tract. and is famous the world over
for its prompt effect upon coughs.
Beware of substitutes. Ask your
druggist for “2V 2 ounces of Pinex”
with directions, and don’t accept any
thing else. Guaranteed to give abso
lute satisfaction ot money refunded.
