Harvest Moon.

Frequently persons ask when the
harvest moon is due and why il is thus
termed. Below this phenomenon is ex-
planned: 1t is the full moon nearest the
autumnal equinox, or September 2Ist.
This year it is September Sth. At this
season the moons orbit makes only a
very small angle with the horizon, and,
therefore, the moon rises at about the
same time every evening. For example :
This year it rises on September 9th, at
6.Io; on the 10th, at $50; the nth. at
7.52. Thus the moon is only little over
20 minutes later each evening, whereas,
ordinarily, it averages 4S minutes later
each night. The harvest moon also rises
only few minutes after the sun set, SO
that in this way the bright moon light
follows the twilight, and the length of the
day is prolonged. The term harvest
moon originated in England, where this
moon came at the harvest and gave the
farmers additional light to harvest their
crops. For eight evenings in succession
it rises before midnight.

Maryland And Virginia Growers
Arrange For Apple Show.

Washington is to have its first apple
show this fall. and from present indica-
tions, it will draw one of the largest
crowds of the year. The show will be
held in the New Masonic Temple for one
week-November 27 to December 2,
inclusive.
The enterprise is being financed by an
association of prominent apple growers
of the States of Maryland and Virginia.
Its object is to demonstrate that just as
fine quality of fruit can be and is being
grown in the South and East as, in the
West. Proof of ability to produce in this
section of the country is shown by the
fact, that last year more apples were
shipped from the little town of Winchester,
Va, than from the entire State of Oregan.
Hundreds of fruit growers of Maryland,
Virginia, Delaware. New Jersey and
other nearby States have already arranged
for exhibit space. which assures the
management of big and successful
show. Exhibits of various kinds of
machinery used in connection with
horticulture will also be displayed.

ex-governor Warfield Not Invited.

The list of Democratic leadrs agreed
upon as participants in the conference at
the Hotel Rennert, Baltimore, Wednesday
morning did not include the name of
former Governor Edwin Warfeld. The
list was completed and invitations sent
out by Gen. Murray Vandiver. The con-
ference was held for the purpose of franz
ing the platform to be submitted to the
state convention and for the purpose of
bringing recalcitrant Democrats together.
1t was explained that former Governor
War6eld was not invited because he is
persona non grata to several leaders. 1t
was further explained that during the
recent primary election campaign as
chairman of the meeting held in the Lyric
in the interest of the nomination of
Senator Lee for governor and elsewhere
in the state Mr.. Warfield made personal
attack upon Senator German and Mr..
Frank A. Furst. 1t is also said that his

Mahon. Police Justice D. ]. Lodon and to

was not on speaking terms with some of
the leaders. and that his presence at the
conference might prove to be embar-

West Nottinqham Academy.

The teaching force of West Nottingham
Academy has undergone considerable change
but every effort has been made to maintain
the high standard to which the school always
aspires. The Board has been fortunate in re-
tanning Prof. A. l.. Lawsing who will have
charge of the dormitory and will add another
year to take the work that will prepare them
either for aggressive farming or for the urging
demand in our high schools that seek teachers
of agriculture. This line of teaching is very
attractive and the scarcity of teachers in these
subjects will guarantee attractive salaries for
years to come.
Miss Emma Forster has been elected to teach
the languages. She is graduate of Bryn
Mawr where she has captured several scholar
ships and has proven herself master student
There is every reason to expect strong
teacher.
Rev. Samuel Polk will teach Greek and
Bible. His efficiency as a teacher and as
factor in the Academy needs no comment.
Miss Jessica Terry, of Oxford, has been en-
gagged to give instruction ON the piano or
organ. She is certain to fill much needed
part of the Academy life. She has won
scholarship admitting her to the Broad Street
Conservatory of Music and promises to add
much to the musical prestige of the Academy.
The School welcomes any and all who are in
terested in music to take advantage of this de.
partment. Regular students are required to
pay extra for the private lessons. Special
students in music need not pay any school
tuition but merely the regular fees for each
private lesson received. The principal of the
school will make arrangements for any one
who is interested in this department.
The Academy viii open its fall session next
Tuesday. The forenoon will be devoted to en-
rollment and the procuring OF the necessary
equipment to start work.
