WHERE NEGROES ARE BARRED.
There's Only One in CuIlman, Ala.
City of 5000 People.

Cullman, a prosperous city of s.
coo inhabitants in Alabama, is
curiosity among southern towns
Only one negro is permitted to live
there, and this exception is counte.
nanced only because of the POPULAR.
ty Of the man in whose home the
negro is a servant.
The population is largely domi-
mated by thrifty German-Americans
and it never has wanted negroes. All
other southern towns and cities have
a negro population of from 40 to 60
per cent of the whole. Many ne
groes have attempted to become res
ldents of Cullman, but were soon
convinced that they had better go
elsewhere, and none thinks of head
ing toward Cullman now. The ne
gro who is permitted TO live there
was formerly a homeless pickaninny
OF Birmingham, who was taken into
the home of local druggist.

DANCING AS COLLEGE COURSE.
Young Women at University of Kan
sas Are Taught to Dance.

Fancy dancing is a new course in
physical education at the University
of Kansas. Young women in the
freshman and sophomore classes are
now required to spend part of their
time in learning to interpret classic
and aesthetic folk dances.
I'VE are teaching the girls the
folk dances of the peasantry in Den
mark, Sweden and Norway princi-
pally said Miss Mary c.. Fish, pro-
fessor of physical culture. "Of course
there are changes in some of the
steps which have been adapted
slightly to the American dances. All
these forms of dancing had their ORR
gin in the motions of the arms and
body. They are suggestive of the
different occupations of the peasants
in these countries.
The exercises aid the girls in
muscular development and assist
them in attaining poise and grace. "
At present 800 young women in
the first and second year classes are
taking these lessons in dancing.

In other words, Mr.. McCabe and DR..

DR.. Wiley testified that DR.. Duniap
freduently waited to see how Solicltsr
McCabe would vote before the associaye

majofity of pure food matters the vote
stood Dunlap and McCabe versus Wiley.

The anomalous situation presented
causes friends Of DR.. Wiley to make
use Of the Tom Watsonesque express
sion-'where are we at?" DR.. Wiley
seems exonerated but helpless, for moth
ing has been done to change the condi-
tions described before the House inves-
tigating committee.
The President hints. at some future
action affecting other parties. 1t Is
reported that he proposes to thorough
ly digest the testimony taken before
the Moss committee. and that a shake
up in the Department of Agriculture
is imminent II a Presidential shake
up does not come this winter, there
are those in the House who believe
that the legislative branch of the Gov
srnment has remedy of it5 own, and
this being the case the Wiley exonera-
ton may be but sidelight to the fight
to the finish In the Department of Agri-
culture.
The question now is, when will the
housecleaning begin in the department
and'at whose instance. Friends of DIR.
Wiley and the public generally, believ-
ing in the rigid enforcement of the
pure food laws, probably will regard
the Presidents exoneration as incom-
pleteL until the hands Of DR.. Wiley are

ARMY ADMINISTRATION
UNDER DIVISIONAL PLAN
Department Commanders May
Give More Time to Troops
in the Field.

To make the organization of the army
in time of peace to conform as near as
possible to war formation, the military
establishment of the United States to-
day returned to a divisional basis. The
country proper is divided into three divi-
sions-eastern, central and western. Dis
tributed among the divisions are seven
departments and three independent posts.
The functions of the divisions concern the
administration and supply OF the army.
while the duties of the departments are
primarily tactical. The departments are
organized as brigades and the generi ]
officers at their head are relieved OF tie
time consuming duties of admins ration.
devoting their time to troops in the neid.
This arrangement, 1t is claimed. will give
the officers the much-needed experience
of handling comparatively large bodies
of soldiers and acquaint them practicaii!
with the tactical problems of war
At various times in the hfstor.f or tne
country the army has been organized IN
divisional basis. The organization
which became effective today, however.
is somewhat different from the division
and departmental formation OF the past.
when in time of peace the duties OF the
division commanders we're confined 10
inspection work and the department

New Plan of Administration.
The nine departments which admin
istered the army up to today have been
reduced to seven by eliminating the
departments of Colorado and Dakota
and assigning their territories to other
departments.
The eastern division embraces the
departments Of the East and the Gulf.
The central division comprises the
departments of the Lakes, the MS
