COMPULSORY EDUCATION
LAW IS TO Be TESTED
Dr.. Harris Will Fight Effort to
Have Son Vaccinated and
Sent to School.

Any attempt on the part OF the board
of education to enforce the compulsory
education law against DIR. George II.
Harris. whose son, Carl. has been de-
barred from the public schools because
he has not been vaccinated. will be
fought to the last ditch, according to
Charles w Darr, attorney for DIR. IIar-
riS.
According to Mr.. Darr, the case re-
manned practically unchanged, despi&
the decision of Justice Anderson of the
District Supreme Court Monday uphold
ing the board Of education in its refusal
to permit Carts entrance into the pub
condition.
Waits Action of Board.
DIR. Harris. according to his attorneys,
is waiting for an attempt on the part OF
the board of education to "dovetail'' the
two laws touching Carts case, the COM
pulsory education law. which makes the
parent liable for failure to provide for
the education of his children, and the
health ordinance. which requires that
every student in public school be vac
cinated
AS the board of education has been up
held in its attitude regarding the vacci-
nation of students. DR.. Harris says he
wishes to push the other question to an
issue. He wants a test made of the COM
pulsory education law. in connection with
the vaccination ordinance. His attitude is
that he has offered to place his son in a
public school and has been refused that
privilege.
Boy Remains Out of School.
In the meantime, the boy is out of
school and, according to his fathers at
torneys. will remain so until the board
Of education gives some inkling of what
its course will be in the matter. This the
board has failed to do so far. It is proba-
BILE that. if DR.. Harris believes the board
will refuse to push the question to an is
sue in his case, he will enter his son in
private school. Until withdrawn to fur
nish the central figure in a test case
young Harris attended private school in
this city.
Attorneys for DR.. Harris have filed no.
tice of appeal from the decision OF Jus
tioe Anderson. The appeal probably will
be argued the last part Of May or early
next fall.

Brutal LYnehlnq.

August IL. 1911, EZEKIEL Walker,
q negro, was burned to death by
Pennsylvania mob at Gainesville. a
town about forty miles from Phila-
delphia. Walker was charged with
killing special officer Edgar Rice.
After killing the officer Walker was
chased through the woods by a posse
and when he found that escape
was impossible shot himself. The
selfinficted wound was not fatal
however. and he was taken to a hos
pital and TO prevent escape his feet
we're chained TO the cot. The mob
dragged cot and man out OF the hos
pital 70 field about half mile from
the town, piled hay and brush
around him and set the pvre on fire.
Walker, though chained to his bed
pulled away from the blazing hay,
but men with fence rails showed the
negro and cot back into the flames.
His piteous plea for mercy fell upon
deal ears and he was soon roasted
alive. And you too, Pennsylva

Have a County Fair.
HELEN, MD, Aug. Z, 1871

HELEN, MD, Aug. 7, 1911.
DEAR Mr.. EDITOR At a time
when nearly every place on the map
is trying IT, boost" itself, doesn t
il seem rather strange that we OF
st. Mary's County are doing so lit
tie in that direction Why not cease
to supinely sit and wait for the out
side world to discover the fact that
our county and people are worth
while?
Few places now being boosted"
by the press and other agencies,
have as proud history and traditions
as our own county. Old St Mary S
has no right to hang her head. What
she needs is a movement Of some
kind to awaken her people and spur
them on to greater endeavors.
To my mind there is no better be-
ginning OF such a movement than
organizing a County Fair which
should be an annual event OF
course some "knOcker" is bound TO
remark that we have nothing TO ex-
hibit. But we have; aud even If
We have to begin in a small way.
the ice will be broken and it will be
pleasure TO note from year to year
our progress along this line.
st. Mary $ is now b coming noted
for her fine horses. A fair at which
these horses could be exhibited and
compete for prizes would awaken in
terest in thorough bred horses, and
| believe would ultimately result in
the elimination OF scrubs both from
our road and draft stock.
A number Of our farmers already
own pedigreed cattle, sheep and
swine. Give them an opportunity
TO exhibit these and il will bring
about healthy spirit OF friendly
rivalry which will result in great
Improvement in the grade OF our
farm animals.
We might also include an exhibit
OF farm products. This would slim
ulate cur farmers and induce them
TO use the improved methods by
which prize winning produce is
raised.
That these fairs do good and can
be made success, is atteSted by
the fac; that they are an annual
event in number Of our counties.
In conclusion, | would respectful
ly suggest that a number of our
progressive citizens come together
and call a public meeting for the
purpose of taking measures looking
to the establishment Of County
Fair Association.
Trusting that this letter may find
its way into the columns of your es-
teemed paper, am, Yours truly,
j. EARL HAYDEN.
