FIRST VETERINARY SCHOOL

The third fftieth anniversary
celebrating the erection in Lyon Of
a veterinary school will be held in
that city about the middle Of May,
1912. Preparations are now form
ing to commemorate the event in q
fitting manner, and invitations are
being issued to all veterinary schools
in the United States and elsewhere
for the purpose of having delegates
in as large number as possible.
It is automatically recorded in the
annals of veterinary science that the
worlds first veterinary school was
founded in Lyon in 1861, since
which time similar institutions have
been inaugurated in many countries,
the last being reported from Abys-
sinia.

THE MOVEMENT IN EGYPT.

Now it is the Moslem women Of
Egypt who are taking part in the
women movement, having asked Of
the Moslem congress the right to at
tend prayers and sermons in the
mosques, privilege already granted
to the women of Constantinople.
They also ask that the primary edu-
cation of young women be made obi
gatory; that young girls be admitted
to schools of medicine; to use means
to prevent polygamy and the abuse
of divorce and to teach Mohamme-
dan girls sewing, housekeeping and
hygiene.

GOOD RULES FOR THE GIRLS
Issued by the. Women's imperial
Health Association Of Great Brit
ain and ireland.

OF more than passing interest to
the women of. this country are the
following rules Of conduct issued to
."the girls Of Great Britain" by the
.Women's Imperial Health Associa-
ton of Great Britain and Ireland.
The future of our country is In
your hands.
Look your best by all means, but
be your best also; the first attracts
to begin with, but the second pro-
duces the most lasting effect.
You must obey the laws of n.y.
giene, respecting fresh air, exercise,
good food, cleanliness and suitable
clothing. A healthy girlhood is the
best foundation for a happy life.
You must know about cooking,
housekeeping and domestic economy.
You must learn about the feed
ing and care of children; this knowl-
edge does not come by instinct, as
many suppose.
Remember that home making is
the most dignifed and important
profession in the world.
Attend, if you can, Continuation
classes" in personal and domestic n.y.
giene in your own house, remember
ing that a good daughter makes the
best wife.
Choose the best companions and
read the best books you can find. Ac-
cept only the best men as your hus-
bands, paying as much attention to
their character as to their personal
appearance. - Woman's National
Weekly.

Local Option Here and Elsewhere

Montgomery county will endeavor, it is said, to hold the first election un- der the Parks bill. It is claimed that petition made up of 3200 qualified electors out of 4600 in that county will straightway be presented, and that an election will be held early in May to determine the form of regu- lation in the sale of liquors in the capital county of the state. So large petition indicates a desire for a change from prohibition, and the pre- sumption is that Montgomery county will vote in favor of either a dispen- sary system or licensed saloons.
 The vote cast in this county last November for governor was 1884, of which number Emmet O'Neal received 6373; Charles H. Scott, 41; Joseph O. Thompson, 1877, and Luther B. Car ter, 92. Foryt-five per cent of this number would be 3548, and a petition of that size is necessary before an election can be held in this county.
 The gathering of that number of names from the ranks of the quali- fled electorate would prove a good, warm task in summer weather. and it may perhaps be postponed to the cool days of the fall season when crops have been laid by and mems minds more naturally turn to political changes.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1911-04-08
FAMOUS TAvERNs DIsAPPEARING

From the Washington Post.
 "One by one. the famous old taverns of New York are closing" remarked Robert A. Winslow of Manhattan. at the Will lard.
 T am reminded of it by seeing our old friend Villas sitting over there with Man ager Flight. You know. Villas was long one of the managers of the famous Fifth Avenue hotel, which was headquarters 50 years or more for the great politicians of the country, especially the republican leaders.
 "All the Presidents since Lincoln have stopped at the Fifthzavenue, and it was torn down only two years ago to make way for an office building. When it closed there were many guests who had made it home for 40 years, and they hated to be turned out General Sherman called 1t his home for many years, and he was one of it's noted guests. General Grant was often there during the war and after he was President Roecoe Conkling and Tom Platt made the Fifth Avenue head quarters.
 Now comes the closing of the Hoffman and the Gilsey The Hoffman has been a democratic headquarters since the days of Ed Stokes, and the Gilsey was con sidered a way-up-town fashionable hotel when it was opened, in 1871. The wonder full demand for hotels like palaces left the older taverns in the background, and they languished while old patrons and the younger generation went to the more fashionable places much farther up town, where there were only private residences 20 years ago.
 "Who can tell if the upward trend of the tavern trade in New York will see the present popular places become back numbers like the Hoffman and Gilsey? Less than % years ago-yes, even dozen years ago-the then manager of the Gil- sey would sheer at the new hotels and predict that they would all lose money.
 MT Breslin was not much of a prophet, as the new hotels have made wonderful fortunes, while Breslin and others who stuck to the old places saw their business dwindle day by day, until there was no hope of ever regaining it.
 "The passing of the famous old places teaches that the American people are de- manding the best and latest in everything and are willing to pay for it. The profits of modern hotel keeping are enormous, and the prices keep going up, with no apparent complaint from the patrons
