The election of Prof. J. B. Hobdy to the newly created office of assistant pro- lessor of agriculture at the Alabama Poly technic institute is of double signifi- canoe.
 It indicates the wide range of interest that is being taken in advance agricul- turai matters, and Professor Hobdy's election to the new chair is a compliment to one of the best practical educators ir the state.
 As president of the Seventh District Az ricultural school Professor Hobdy built up an institution that has been of in- calculable benefit to the farmers of north Alabama in a practical way. Inc benef- cial influences that have gone out from this school are felt in many of the coun- ties and especially noticeable is it in the immediate section where the school IS located at Albertville.
 A few years ago the Sand mountain" section around Albertville was in a most primitive state of cultivation. Today it Is & veritable garden spot with pros- porous white farmers who are constant ly improving their lands through the ad- vanced methods that are being not only taught but demonstrated at the experi- ment station.
 Professor IIobdy is admirably fitted for the new position that has been created, not for him, but for the people of Ala bama. There was an imperative demand for the service that Professor Hobdy is expected to give. He is to carry agricul- tural information and inspiration into the homes and onto the farms of the people of this state. His is to be a practical, ed and is being appreciated by the people more than ever before,
 The cumulative benefits that are going out to the people of Alabama from the Auburn institution every year cannot be estimated. The boys corn clubs which have done so very much in increasing the acreage yield of corn in Alabama Is direct result of work in the department to which Professor Hobdy has been pro- noted It was started and pushed by Prof. l.. N. Duncan. professor of agri- culture and also representing the United States agricultural department in agri- cultural promotion in Alabama
 The girls tomato and dairy clubs have been started by Professor Duncan. and this work will be continued by Professor Hobdy.
 By the way there Is strong and growing demand for agricultural experts on the large plantations of Alabama. Graduates from the state institutions have no trouble in securing good paying po- sitions with opportunity for broadening their chances for money and position.
 am told that the various district and other schools with agricultural depart ments have difficulty in keeping profess OTIS of those special departments.
 For instance, one superintendent in a district agricultural school was recently offered $100 per month and one-third of all he could make to take charge of a south Alabama plantation.
 Large plantation owners in Alabama are loathe to part with or sub-divide their holdings, and many of them have adopted

Anniston Will Have Paint Mill-Pub- lie Schools Come to Close-POol Room Operator Skips His Bond

Anniston, June S.-(Special) )-Dr. John w. Stagg, president of the Alabama Pres byterian College for Men in this city, is telling a pretty good joke on him. self. He says that the pastor of south Alabama church invited him to preach at the evening service, agreeing himself to make the final prayer. When he finished his sermon Dr. Stagg says the pastor did not begin his prayer, and after the serv- ice the pastor confessed that he had gone to sleep during Dr. Stagg's talk and did not know what to pray about.
 Dr. Stagg will no longer wear bury ing coats," as he did during the recent Hobson incident here. as friend. recog- nizing the merit of his article in regard to that affair, has given him an excel lent summer suit of clothes. The local educator says the Hobson incident is one of the most talked of things in the state, he finds. He says, however, that the people seem to misapprehend the point raised here by local minister. No one would object to Captain Hobson remov- ing his coat during a political speech, 1t is said, although it was regarded as a little unconventional for commencement orator, who Is usually attitred a la Prince Albert, to speak in his shirt sleeves However. the majority of the people of Anniston are in favor of shirt sleeve etiquette.

PEOPLE TO PAY FOR
 SCHOOL BUILDING

Carrollton, June S.-(Specal.) )--At a meeting held few evenings ago by the citizens of Carrollton relative to the building of an annex to the pres ent school building, 1t was the unani- nous sense of those present that the money necessary for the erection of such a building be raised by public subscription. A committee was appoint- ed by the chair to raise the necessary funds and already more than half the amount necessary has been subscribed.
 The present school building was only erected few years ago and was at that time considered large enough to meet any demands, but the increased attendance of the past two sessions calls for this annex and 1t must be built.
 The annual meeting of the Pickens County Sunday School association will be held in Reform next Saturday and Sunday. It is expected that every Sun day school in Pickens will be repre- sented.
