Guy Musser. of the Pierpont
school. then addressed the audience.
He dwelt upon the fact that educa-
ton brings about more complete live
ing and he emphasized the fact that
the times demand better preparation.
The subject was handled with ability
and there is every reason to, believe
that his talk left an Impression that
will resolve itself into benefits for
the school and district.

idea that the school ought to make
US good and should result in making
us all think more. His talk was brief
but to the point and n,tich was said
In little.

growth of the educational system and
was followed by G. R. Hartman who

of the evening. He discussed at
length and with much emphasis bet
ter buildings and better system.
He brought out the Idea that the
trend of the times demands Indus
trial education la.sely and he ex-
pressed the belief that manual tra!n-
ing and teaching the culinary art
would soon be parts of the public
school training in West Virginia
Prof. Marsh is an experienced and
successful educator and pleasing
speaker. His work In the state as
campaigner for better and more
thorough schools is receiving favor
able comment on every hand and his

Winn Do Not Win

One OF our local papers last week
published the fact that Mr.. Winn
the gardener, brought in a 14-lb.
cabbage and claimed himself en-
titled to blue ribbon. On in
vitation OF Hardy Green we drove
out to his cabbage patch west Of
town and selected a cabbage head
ami found it to weigh 17lbs. This
is pretty good considering the
TACT that most of the big heads had
already been marketed. In Boone
county they consider a 1O-lb head
very large as the following special
shows:
Columbia, Mo-, July 9.-Dr. Frank
G. Nifong, formerly a professor in

day what is said to be the largest
head Of cabbage ever raised in

Some Narrow Escape

j. F. Miles Saturday told us OF
a narrow escape Harry Jolly had
on his place near Herndon Tuesday
OF last week. He picked up a bun
die OF wheat to throw it aside when
he uncovered a large Sattlesnake
measuring feet and inches in
length and 9 inches in circumfer-
ence, having IA rattles and a but
ton. They killed the snake and
feel fortunate that they escaped a
bite.
j. II. Lakin, several miles east Of
the Miles place, had two narrow es-
capes recently. While pulling
weeds last week he got his hands
very close to vicious rattlesnake.
His attention was attracted by the
rafting in time to avoid being bit
ten, Several days later he came
near picking up another ratlesnake =
when he picked up some wood fl ON
his woodpile. He says he killed
both rattlers and found they each
had I rattles and a button. He
thinks he might have killed some
more if he hadn't been too busy at
other things!
