Change Of Name for Mcthodists.

Asheville, N. c., May 20.-While
gray-haired veterans pleaded that the
old name remain, the General Con-
ference of the Methodist Episcopal
Church, South, to-day voted to
change the name to the Methodist
Church, by adopting the report of the
committee, which recommended that
the word "South" be eliminated. The
report was adopted after q long de-
bate, in which other leaders brought
out the fact that work in the West
was seriously hampered on account
Of the word South.
The action Of the General Confer.
ence, however, Will have to be rati-
fed by three-fourths majority vote
Of the members Of the annual confer
ences.

INTELLIGENT ROAD MAKING.
The People Of the South Becoming
Generally Interested,
Progressive Farmer.)

Progressive Farmer.) s.
We are In receipt of copy of the
report Of the Committee on Agrlcul-
ture OF the United States Senate. rec-
ommending the passage Of a bill ap-
propriating 100000 for the use of
the Office Of public roads In aiding tho
road authorities Of the country to do
the work OF road building in an in
telligent and economical manner.
N. j. Bachelor, master Of the Ma
tional Grange. says:
"The enactment of this bill will
result in widespread and permanent
reforms IN the present methods of
public highway construction and
maintenance, under which it is estf-
mated that Of the $90,OOO,OO0 annu-
ally expended for road Improvement,
at least one-half, or $45,OOO,000, is
practically wasted, through lack of
knowledge on the part Of the various
local road authorities. The greater
part of this money could be saved by
giving these local officials the benefit
or expert advice and assistance by the
trained engineers of a properly
equipped office Of public roads, and
1T is with this object in view that the
proposed appropriation is sought"
Thee Is no longer any doubt but
that the people Of the South are in
terested In the making Of better
roads. The majority Of leading men
everywhere are willing to pay for
improved highways and in most sec
tlons more work and more money is
being put on the public roads, but as
Mr. Bachelder says, much Of this
money and effort is wasted through
lack Of knowledge Of road building
by those who are spending the paltry
$90.0o0,000 which the country is
devoting to the building OF roads.
Some Of those who are spending
the public money trying to improve
our roads know that they do not
know how to build roads, while 9TH
ers don't know, but don't know that
they don't know anything about road
building. Public money national
appropriation, could not be put to a
better purpose than in sending out
over the country everywhere expert
road builders to show and instruct
those who are seeking to improve our
public roads how the work can be
best and most economically done.

CLEAN SPORT PRINCIPLES.
\. NJ. @. A. Endeavoring to Raise
the Standard of Amateur Athletics.

Charleston, May 20.-Speclal: The
Clean Sports League Of the Carolinas
has been carefully organized and
elaborate arrangements have been
made to put into operation an effect
I've working machinery. This organ
ization will have no legislative or ad-
ministrative power per Sc, but will
direct its efforts along educational
lines. The headquarters are in the
Y. NJ. G. A. building, Charleston.
1t has been organized to popular
ize athletic sports and to improve
the standard Of athletic activities, so
as to harmonize them with the high
purpose Of education and good citi-
zenship. Sport for sports sake" is
It's motto.
In 1909 one hundred and neteen
professional players Of the National
League were suspended for rowdy-
ism and other offences. Undoubted-
ly many offences were overlooked.
Similarly in amateur ranks there is q
continual violation of rules and prin-
ciples which reflects upon our boast
OF being true sportsmen. Amateurs
too often do things they hope will
not come to light. Frequently spec
tators and rooters are unjust and
their actions not always in accord
with what Is known to be right. The
Clean Sports League Of the Caro-
linas is an educational organization
composed Of the leading colleges and
Y. M. G. AS in the Carolinas.
1t is endorsed by the
= 1. Southern Inter-C Collegiate Ath-
letic Association.
2. Athletic League of North Amer
lea.
3. South Carolina intercollegiate
Athletic Association.
4. Carolina Federation of Y. M.
G. AS.
5. Charleston Amateur Athletic
Federation.
The following adopted code of
ethics Is simple--fair to the indi-
vidual, to the large as wei, as to the
small colleges, schools or other or
ganizations. 1t appeals to the man
hood In man, and all lovers Of clean
sport are asked to support it.
Clean Sport Principles.
1. Both the home team and the
home town should treat the visiting
team as a guest.
2. Both players and spectators
should recognize good plays of the
visiting team by suitable cheering.
3. Players should play fair and
be good losers.
4. The umpire and the referee
have difficult tasks to perform. Spec
tators should accord them their
moral support. The players should
extend them hearty thanks as they
leave the field.
3. Condemn all use Of profane lam
guage on the field.
Lists will be circulated in every
town in the Carolinas, and every man
and every boy big enough to swing n
bat Is requested to add his signature,
with the understanding that an hon
est effort will be made to live I'D to
these principles. Such action will
add greatly to the pleasure and dig
nifty Of athletic activities of the Car
olinas.
