draw Its share of immigrants, Dr. Hulley brought in this matter of geography and climate.

 Dr. Hulley said that the sea of fog which covers England is largely responsl- bic for what the English are today-for their virtues as well as their faults. The fact that England Is an island has like wise played big part in determining the history of the race. The speaker then took up Germany, Greece, Rome, the Holy Land and Arabia, and showed how even the thought, politics and religion of thom all had been influenced by eography and climate

Or. HulIey Talks on the History of the
 Constitution.

University, July 16-(special)- )-Yester- day afternoon at o'clock under the tent on the campus, Dr. Hulley began series of talks on the constitutional history of the United States. The lecture dealt with the early history of the country, the ar tieles of confederation, and the adoption of the constitution. The speaker present. cd his matter in very clear and forceful way and held the close attention and in- terest of the large audience that gathered to hear him.
 This morning before the general assem- bly, pr. Hulley gave a very instructive and interesting lecture on "The Effect of Geography on History" Expressed in a few words, the aim of the lecture was to show that the physical, mental and spiritual characteristics and the accom- plishments of a people are determined by their geographic and climatic environ- ment. Ireland, Germany, Italy and France have their tyes that have developed on account of surrounding conditions. We have no national type as yet, but in time it will develop as will sectional types.
 Dr. Hulley showed how civilization has always followed the waterways the great natural roads. If we look on any of our rivers, there we shall find nourishing cities. New York was not built for any arbitrary reasons, but because geograph ical conditions demanded that a city be built at the mouth of the Hudson. So 1t was with Duluth, Detroit, New Orleans and other cities.

 "Alabama must have a prominent part in this great and enduring work. The state had nineteen commands engaged in the operations commemorated by the Vicksburg park-eleven in General Penn berton's army (20th, 23d, 30th, 31st, S7th, 10th, 42d, 18th infantry regiments. Eman- uels battery, Waddell's battery, Seng- stalks battery), and eight in General Johnston's army (27th, 35th, fist, 54th, 55th infantry regiments, Stones battalion, sharpshooters; Carpenters battery).

A beautiful site (bounded by Alabama circle and Con federato avenue), has been reserved for the state memorial in the park.

GUNNELLS TAKES
 DEFEAT EASILY
CLAIMS THAT A GAIN HAS BEEN MADE IN HELP FOR THE SCHOOL CHILDREN OF THE RURAL DISTRICTS.

Montgomery, July 16.-(special.)- )-The defeat of the school supervision bill Tn the house today is met in philosophical way by Superintendent of Education II. c. Gunnells, who was very anxious to see it become law. Speaking of the bill and it's fate this afternoon he said:
 ''The school people of the state, while not satisfied, are gratified over the result in the house this morning as to the bill for a qualified superintendency. For fir- teen years the friends of the children in the rural schools have been fighting to procure for them the advantages as far as supervision is concerned which is pos sessed by the children of the towns and cities For the first time in the history of legislation, the committees on education In both the house and the senate have re- ported favorably supervision bills looking 10 the protection of the children of the farmers. Too much credit can not be given to MT. Lee, chairman of the house committee, and to Mir. Reynolds chair man of the senate committed and to the members of both the house and the sen ate committees and to friends on the floor '1f fftS oH ehiN'u Slduu WHICH HdS DeeI taken in behalf of the country boy and girl. The fact that the measure was lost in the house by a vote of only 51 to 37 should be gratifying and encouraging Such a vote could not have been obtained four years ago. The parents of more than S1 per cent of the children who live in the country are beginning to realize that the country boy and the country girl are being discrimnated against, and the day is not far distant when the members of our legislatures will be brought to real ize the fact that discrimination must last no longer.
 'I believe that the members of tho house of representatives, who opposed this measure are absolutely sincere in the positions they take. do not believe, how ever, that they have studied the question sufficiently or that they are acquainted With conditions to such a degree as would make them realize that they have made a great mistake in the positions which they have taken.
 "rhe boys and the girls who live in the towns and cities always have, in the legislature, able representatives to look after their interest. It seems to mo that as superintendent of education af all the schools of the state, including the S1 per cent of the children who live outside the incorporated towns and cities, that pos sibly my first duty should be to wage a war in their interest. I intend to do so. I have no fight to make on the city and town schools My fight Is to give to the Sl per cent of the children who live out side of towns and cities the same excel lent advantages which the town and city child has The time Is coming when the laws of the state will not bear so heavily on the country child and if I can be an instrument in the bringing about of this condition I shall feel that the efforts which have made have not been made in vain."

 For many reasons the Chautauqua platform Is most attractive to orators and statesmen, both those without jobs and those with them. MT Bryan addresses audiences of from 5000 to 15,000 people each day for ten weeks in the summer Chautauqua season. For these speeches he Is well paid. He makes money and he meets the people of the nation The same thing is true of LaFollette and Champ Clark and Deliver and other politicians who like to earn money and also like to keep next to the people. None of them speaks to as many people as Br Bryan, however, for Bryan day at every Chautauqua Is almost invariably the record breaker
