SALE OF WARES FOR
MOUNTAIN SCHOOLS
PROVING SUCCESS
Southern Children to Be
Greatly Benefited by Pro-
ceeds From Exhibit.

Great success has attended the efforts
OF the Southern Educational Association
to market the products of the hand
craft schools In the mountain regions
OF South Carolina, Virginia and Ken
lucky. A collection of baskets. rugs,
quilts, trays and other articles was
placed on sale in the Southern Building
q short time ago and as a result much
money has been sent to the mountain
GERS who made them. The exhibit will
be made permanent and one Of the two
rooms now used in the Southern Build
ing will be occupied.
The education sought is practical. The
boys and girls are urged to make bas-
kets, woven cloths, and furniture; the
money received is to be used by them in
getting an education in the three RS.
Some of the people whose interest in
handcrafts and education Is being
awakened live in lonely places forty
five miles from a railroad. II the asso-
citation succeeds in its purpose. cabin
schools will be built in all of these re-
mote places, taking education to the
homes Of the people.
The articles are sold at the prices
asked by the makers; the association Is
The woven articles are Identical in
appearance and method of making with
the old heirlooms of century ago,
which are now so highly priced. the
dyes used on the baskets are home
made, a pleasing gray basket being
stained, for instance. with dye made
from onions. The basketry is unusually
strong and durable. The carved pieces
exhibited are OF walnut, made from trees
cut down by the mountain boys, who are
directed to plant q young tree wherever
they chop down an old one.
The work OF the association promises
not only to give the mountain people
much needed elementary education and
a new interest in life, but also to pre-
serve the half-forgotten handcrafts that
existed during the Revolutionary period,
and which wrought such durable and
valuable products.

Bitter Tariff Fight Will Mark

Facing one of the most bitter tariff
sessions that ever preceded a national

the Christmas holidays. The line OF

The short truce Is mainly to enable
the public printer to complete the work
Of printing the voluminous report of the

simultaneously the Democratic men,

the report Of the board itself Is a bone
Of contention.
II the Democrats decline to accept the
boards report as it stands, the Repub-
licans plan to tell the country that
the majority refused scientific informa-
ton. On the other hand, the Democrats
will point out that the boards report
shows that the rates on the Payne law
were largely prohibltive, and they will
insist that the reductions should be
greater than that contemplated by ''the
friends of the Payne law" who are
willing to revise only to a certain ex-
tent.
