San Antonio, Tex, Jan. THE
self possession and determination of
men under trying circumstances was
demonstrated day or two ago by p.
l.. Ball, president of one of the lead
ing banks of this city, in a most en-
phatic way. Mr.. Ball and a company
of friends. including his brother, were
in wreck on the San Antonio & Aran-
sas Pass railroad when the brother
was killed outright and the other mem
bers of the party painfully injured.
Mr.. Ball sustaining a compound frac-
ture of the leg. Notwithstanding his
injuries. he made his way to where
the brother was pinioned under the
wreckage directly beneath the coach
stove, which was very hot at the
time. Mr.. Roll worker for five min
utes. Or longer, standing On the ,brok-

pain. in an endeavor to rescue his
kinsman. After a time he succeeded
in calling attention to the danger and
others came. and the brother was re-

ing been killed when the coach left
the rails. Mr.. Ball is in a hospital
in this city slowly recovering from his

ly. The attendance was the largest OF
the week. Practical work was on the
program for the day.
Speaking before the high school
Prof. G. /. Christie added new reason
to the many given as to why boys
leave the farm. He says that many
times there is a girl at the bottom OF
it. The wife or sweetheart. unwilling
TO remain in rural surroundings, drags
her husband, somewhat unwillingly, to
the city. where his success is not as
great as it would have been on the
farm. Mr.. Christie believes that ag-
riculture should be taught in all the
schools of Indiana. both city and
country. in order to keep the boys on
the farm and to induce those city boys
whose natural bent is for farming to
leave the town and go back to the
soil. He believes that If the girls
would study agriculture there would
be fewer husbands leaving the farm.
