OUR FIRST FREE SCHOOL
1t Was Established In Mnssachusetts
In the Year 1641

~ "hS LII NGSAAChuSelIB
In the Year 1911.
The first free school established in
the United States was In the province
of Massachusetts Bay in the year 1911
by order of the general colonial court
In 1647 the same authority declared
that free schools should be established
within every town having fifty house
holders under penalty Of fine of f5.
This fine was doubled by declaration
made in 1911 and again doubled in
1858. Connecticut established free
schools in 1914 and levied tax for
their support. Maryland established
free schools in 1854 and levied a tax on
negroes, pelts, furs and beef and pork
for their support. Governor Berkeley
declared in 1919 the hope that free
schools would never be established in
Virginia, but the towns of Charleston
and Elizabeth did establish them in
that year. and Elizabeth set aside 200

Married Wednesday.

One of the prettiest and most
elaborate weddings of the month was
the one that took place in the church
in Elkhorn last Wednesday when
Lawrence Johansen and Miss Mary
Esbeck were joined as husband and
wife by Rev. Jersild before one of the
largest crowds ever gathered for a
like purpose in the church.
The bride was beautifully gowned
in soft and clinging white that show
ed off her delicate beauty. Her
attendants too showed off to their
best. She is one of the best known
young women in the country and is
loved for her real worth as good and
noble woman.
The groom was attired in con-
ventional black and was looking his
best. He is one of the stalwart far
mer citizens of the community
conducting the affairs on their place
south of town so as to show his en-
tire ability to govern and manage his
own affairs in the world. They will
live on one OF her fathers farms dur
ing the coming year he having rented
it and will take their place among
the best families Of the community.

DeWitts Little Early Risers do not grippe
nor weaken the system. They cure bilious
ness, jaundice, constipation and inactive livers
by arousing the secretions, moving the bowels
gently yet etfectually, and giving such tone
and strength to the glands of the stomach,
liver and bowels that the cause of the'trouble
is removed entirely. These famous little pills
exert decided tonic effect upon the organs
involved, and if their use Is continued for a
few days there will be no return of the
trouble. Nick Dof1ing g. Co.

Mrs. GieI0W'S Picture
of "Mammy's" Cabin.

Surely Alabama can feel proud when
her sons and her daughters carry her
name along with their fame, the world
over. Though now a resident Of New
York, Mrs Martha s. Gielow always reg
listers whether in this country or abroad
rfrom Alabama" While in Boston last
winter this famous little Greensboro wo-
man had poems written to her, and vol
umes of letters and press criticisms
which were eulogies of her wonderful
art
: Mrs. Gielow is now electrifying the
west with her gift Of song and story.
The Colorado Springs Gazette says Of
her: Mrs. Gelow was one of the most
notable elocutionists in attendance at the
convention Of the National Association of
Elocutionists lately held in Denver. She
was accorded the place Of honor upon the
program and more than met the antici-
patton of her hearers"
The Denver Post says OF her; ut was
Mrs. Gielow, the Alabama authorizes, who
carried off the honors at the Convention
of Elocutionists."
But 1t is such personal letters that l
quote below by permission which Mrs.
Gielow says repays her most for her
work 1t is but one of many received
while in Denver. and is from an unknown
Denver lady, Mrs. F. W. Wassem, who
heard Mrs. Gielow recite before the Con-
vention of Elocutionists Mrs. Wassem
writes: From every one 1

very charming Qf you will allow me to
say sol and your personality seemed to
completely captivate me, but when you
began to read l forgot it was you, dear
Mrs. Gielow, and was fixing the picture
of the cabin and of nanny, and Miss
Sallie and the baby in the foreground.
Oh, 1t was so real, so appealing, and your
splendid portrayal made it seem like a
real thing rather than a story told In
my heart there was a responsive chord
which made your words mean something
to me, something which made you no
poorer and me vastly richer. These lit
tie things which now and again we catch
in our hearts. these are the precious
stones which make the grand collection
in our memory's store. And If we never
meet again, you will know one woman in
Denver was made richer by your coming.
Richer In love and appreciation, richer by
having heard an artist whose talents are
real, not assumed. l thank you for II all
and wish you all the honor which is
justly due you"
Such a tribute is a lesson to all who
go forth into the world with their Cod
given talents to unfold.

TO BASEBALL GAMES
The News and Gossip Of the Social
World During the Mid
- Summer Season.
BY ANNIE kENpRlcK WALKER.
One Woman's Day.

Dawnl And a long, hard day before,
A hoard Of duties left undone,
That swarm and sting me, one by one.
Soul protesting. shrinking sense,
Beaten body bruised, and sore
Up and be DOING Get thee hence
And meet the dawn of the day once more.
Noon! And the rest that would be so
sweet,
TO tired hands to trudging feet,
Must piece the day. must draw its length
TO fit the duties of Its hours.
The faded patience, faded powers,
Must pricked, be pressed TO spring and
strength.
That will sustain the noontides heat.
Evel And a sense of shadowy wings,
The soft seclusion that darkness brings;
( To dim eyes drawn and drained of tears,
To hearts with fainting, falling fears
And souls that saddened, seek the years,
Long gone for all of love and light,
God sendeth down the boon OF night.

Birmingham's ''Smart
Set' at Baseball Games.

During the recent horse show held in
Birmingham there was a bloodless war
waged between the society editor and the
base ball editor on one of the papers since
the latter insisted that the baseball
games played during horse show week
attracted the smart st" who every ar
tednoon assisted in swelling the number
at the baseball game to something Ike
-four hundred thousand
The base ball editor. however, no longer
has occasion to deal In glittering general
tiles about the social side of baseball,
since every afternoon of the past two
weeks has been the occasion of many
driving parties to the games. The entire
absence of all formality appeals to so
eiety these warm afternoons and as the
very simplest of toilettes is worn the en-
ergy of the belle and beauty does not fall
her as she dresses for her drive to the
park.
The presence of so many women in Biz
minghams social world gives unusual So
cial interest to the games, and as they as
semble in the grandstand their enthusi-
asm and interest is quite as great as they
display at the races or the horse show.
Among the fashionable women who,
with their escorts, have made attractive
groups at the recent games are: Mrs.
Scion Jacobs and her guest, Miss Kirk
patrick of Nashville. one of the many
charming visiting girls; Mrs. Algernon
Nelson, Mrs. John H. Coughlon, Miss
Coughon, Miss LeGrande Mrs. Lee Brad
