Emory, the Philadelphia builder who has the contract, last evening in formed the board that he couldn't complete the job. He turned the con tract over to his bondsman, the Mary land Fidelity and Deposit Company, Baltimore. The structure was to have been finished by January 1 and at his request he was given an extension until February 15. Emory contends that subcontractors failed to fulfill their agreements relative to supplies. The structure was to have cost $66,000, but Emory was allowed $2,000 for finishing extra rooms. Architect C. Howard Lloyd said last evening that at least two months' work on the structure was necessary. The district is amply protected by the contract and the directors are elated over the possibility of an early com pletion of the building. Fix Commencement Dates Comencement dates were fixed by the board upon recommendation of Dr. Downes. Central High School's class will graduate the afternoon of June 18 and the students of Technical High will get their diplomas on June 17. The Teachers' Training School ex ercises will be held May 28. In his report to the board Dr. Downes spoke of the generally satisfactory observ ance of the patrons' day programs in the schools. Dr. F. E. Downes and Dr. C. B.

BAD COLD! ME mm FOR BOWELITOIM No headache, constipation, bad cold or sour stomach by morning. Get a 10-cent box. Sick headache, biliousness, coated tongue, head and nose clogged up with a cold—always trace this to tor pid liver; delayed, fermenting food in the bowels or sour, gassy stomach. Poisonous matter clogged in the intestines, instead of being cast out of the system, is reabsorbed into the blood. When this poison reaches tho delicate brain tissue it causeß conges tion and that dull, throbbing, sicken ing headache. Cascarets immediately cleanse the stomach, remove the sour, undigested food and foul gases, take the excess bile from the liver and carry out all tho constipated waste matter and poisons in the bowels. A Cascaret to-night will surely straighten you out by morning. They work while you sleep—a 10-cent box from your druggist means your head clear, stomach sweet and your liver and bowels regular for months.—Ad vertisement.
