NOT A VERY JOYOUS MEAL
Student Took Supper with Professor, But It Was Rather an h.
 hospitabIe Affair.

A graduate of Washington and Lee was telling a story of one of the pro fessors of the famous Virginia insttu- tion. This particular pedagogue was known as close and crusty, and conse- quently he did not stand ace high with the students.
 One of the features of college life, of course, was seeing that the fresh men did not pine because of mo- notony. Occasionally the sprouts they were subjected to took the form of bogus invitations to dine with mem- bers of the faculty. A member of the baby class who didn't know much about the professors received such a note from the prize tight-wad of the faculty, and accepted it in good faith, says the Louisville Courier-Journal. He turned up at the learned mans home in due season and rang the bell.
 Well what is it?" growled the pro- lessor as he opened the portal about three-eighths of an inch.
 Please, sir, I've come to supper" said the somewhat abashed freshman.
 The professor gazed at him mo- ment in astonishment and then opened the door to allow the unexpected guest to enter
 If you've come to supper, come on in," he said,
 The freshman related that mush and milk composed the menu. and that the sole conversation between him and the unwilling host, who he discovered toward the close of the festivities had not invited him, was the teachers announcement that he retired early and his acquiscence and consequent departure.

No Redress from Uncle Sam.

Injured by a rolling log, mistreated, as he alleges, by a physician under government contract to treat him at the Good Samaritan hospital in Wash ington state, and claiming reimburse ment as the result of such medical mistreatment, Ole B. Susort, an Oka- hogan reclamation service employe at Concully, Wash, has been advised that he has no redress from the gov ernment.
 "A person who enters into con- tract with the United States provides for the performance of service by one of its agents must be presumed to do so in recognition of the we'll known rule of law that the United States is not liable for the negligence of its employees" holds the comptrol- Ter of the treasury.
 "The United States does not under take responsibility for lack of skill or negligence of agents that it employs under the contract. The damages. if any, arising from negligence or lack of skill cannot be paid by the govern ment. The wrong. if any, was com mitted by the agent of the government and not by the government"

Automobiles In Nova Scotia.

People who have been making auto mobile tours in Nova Scotia have run up against some strange regulations of the provincial character which have tended to considerably abridge their convenience and comfort.
 They did not find an absolute pro hibition against cars, as in Nantucket, but the regulations they did find were even more annoying than that at Nan tucket, because of the latter they are specifically informed and so would not undertake a tour there.
 1t appears that the Nova Scotia reg uation forbids cars from using the highways in certain sections on the market day in each week, when the country folk flock into the town to do. their trading.
 They discovered. too late for their that the market days do not occur on the same day of the week in every town. so that while they steered clear of that In one town they brought up with a bang against the bars in another town on the line od the routes they had planned.

Well Kn0bn Wen Write
On Results of Election
Neither Necessary Nor Wise.

To the Editor of The Age Herald.
The defeat of the amendment was due
in some measure to dissatisfa ction with
the politics and the measures of the
present state administration, and there
were other minor causes contributing
to the result. But the best short hand
rendering of the result is that the
great body of the white voters of the
state, representing all classes of the
people, were not convinced that the
amendment was either opportune, nee
essary or wise, and they therefore con-
servatively decided to reject 1t.
The result does not singnify that the
people are tired of prohibition. They
simply refused to regard the issue as
being one of saloon or no saloon" or
prohibition versus whisky" and re-
jected the amendment on its own de-
merits.
It would be unwise, therefore, for
anti-prohibitionsts to take heart from
this vote, and endeavor to get up a
movement to repeal or radically change
the present prob addition statutes. Time
may disclose the necessity for a re-
peal or modification of some of the
provisions of these statutes; but the
great majority of the people are for
prohibition, and desire a thorough test
of the prohibition laws In the crucible
of experience and common sense. Ine
people are sane and conservative. They
are to be trusted. and their will should
be respected.
do not doubt that the next state
administration will oonservative1y ad-
here to the policy above outlined
