| leaving Seattle he had been speaking to
the chief Of police and when he told him

try was the chiefs comment with regard
to your head of the police force in the
city" That" added Captain Dean, twas
the opinion held in Texas that ne is a
sincere. honest and efficient police officer.

sonal experience OF Omaha and may say
that I have been q peace officer nearly all
my lfe."

EDUCATION FOR NEGRO FARMER
Director Of Agricultural School Says
Training Is Not Useless


In his recent address at Gainesville,
P. c. Clark, director of the agricultural
school at Clark University, laid dowa
two fallacies, commonly held in the
South. which need to be exploded be-
fore the section makes notable pro-
gress as applied to the negro.
The first is, that the ignorant and
illiterate farm hand is good enough
for agricultural purposes" and the
other, that public money spent in
trying to improve the economic condi,
ton of such laborers is wasted"
In the same speech. Parks quoted
statement of Clarence Poe of North
Carolina which completely knocks the
props from under these outworn pre-
JUDGES.
Mr. Poe declares that it is the inefi
cient negro farm hand, largely in the
majority in the southern state, who IS
demoraiizing the fertility of our soil
and lowering productivity by unscien
tific methods.
Insisting that the negro in the ru
raj South be trained into competent
farm hand, the South is working. not

MOODY, THE DRAMATIsT, DIES
Chicago University Loses One of It's
Most DISTINGUISHED Men.

CHICAGO-The University of Chi
cago is in gloom over the death il
Colorado Springs of William Vaughan
Moody, probably the most distin.
guished man of letters who has ever
been connected with the Midway in
stitution. Hailed as the greatest liv-
ing American poet by many discrimi-
mating critics. it was in 1907, when
his drama. The Great Divide" scored
the greatest success of the year, that
his name became widely known.
While the poets associates at the
University had known of his serious
illness, they had hoped his compare
tive youth-he was only IL years old
would enable him to recover his
health, and news of his death came
as a shock.
Mr.. Moody had retired from his
chair of assistant professor of litera-
ture at the University of Chicago
more tnan year ago and for part of
the summer and until a few weeks
ago was living with Mrs. Moody, whom
he had married in 1909, in almost COM
plete seclusion at his home, 1865
Groveland avenue. A few weeks ago,
accompanied by Mrs. Moody and Miss
Birch a friend of Mrs. Moody, he went
to Colorado Springs in the hope OF
regaining his failing strength. He
had planned an extended stay at Col
orado Springs and had week ago
moved into a house at Westview place,
on which he had taken long lease.
