My son. am glad that you asked my advice
Regarding the girl you should marry,
It's well in these matters to stop and think twice,
To be wise and a little bit wary.
Be sure she is saving and thrifty and bright
"a treasure you seldom discovery
And then-if she's willing to have you-all right,
Providing, of course, that you love her!
She ought to be gentle and kindly and sweet,
And tender and loving and gracious,
She ought to be patient and steady and neat
Not fluffy and lightly flirtatfous
Buff she's not up to this standard 1 set,
IT, In fact, it is way, way above her,
You'll never admit believe it, bet.
You certainly won't-if you love her.
This matter of marriage is half of your life
And you should carefully ponder
You ought to pick out a brunette for your wife,
Unless of the blondes you fonder
I'm glad that you listen to all that say,
AS near to the altar you hover,
And when have finished you'll go your way
Despite my advice-if you love her!

THE TRUST.

| THE TRUST.
When the price of butter goes up,
And eggs are hittin' the skies
And meat and potatoes keep pace
And our money actually flies
We rave and roar at the trust,
And charge 1t with stealing and
| lies.
But the trust goes along just the
same,
Cares little about what We say,
The president motors at night,
And sits in his office by day,
He knows he deserves what he
gets,
But he laughs-and keeps
making us pay.
In two months 100000 rabbits
were killed in Kansas. Must
have almost depopulated the
state.

their wish.
Curiosity Is a great aid to
friendship. Once you know all
about another you lose interest in
him.

FINANCIAL BOARD IS
TO ACCEPT FUNDS
Associated Charities Will
Gladly Accept Money
From Charity Ball.

The financial board of the Associat-
ed Charities which met with George
Knollenberg, one of it's members at
o'clock this morning, directed s. E.
Swayne to state to the managers of the
Charity Ball, which is to be given in
the Coliseum on December 4th, for the
benefit of the organization, that the
financial board is glad to re-
ceive all contributions from the pub
lie and did not regard it as within its
province to dictate the nature of the
contributions source. That il the la
dies of Richmond wished to give an
entertainment for the benefit of the
organization the latter did not consid-
er itself authorized to criticize the ma
ture of the entertainment. This state
ment was made on account of an arti-
Gle which appeared to the effect that
the Associated Charities would not
accept the money made by the Chari-
ty ball.
The members of the financial board
are George II. Knollenberg, S. F.
Swayne. Samuel Gaar, Benjamin John
son, Walter Doan, Jesse Bailey, James
A. Carr, DR.. C. S. Bond, Arthur Smith
and N. c. Heironimus.

SEVENTEEN TEACHERS
FAVOR THE PLAN
Want Early Glasses and Ses-
sions at High School to
Close at 1880.

The petition for shorter hours at
the high school will be circulated
among the pupils next Monday to as
certain definitely what portion of the
students are in favor of the innova-
ton.
Many of the students object to be-
ing confined to the school for study
periods after their classes have been
completed. They also believe that the
sessions should start at instead of
$50 O'Clock and continue without in
termission until school is dismissed.
This would enable the school to be
dismissed at 1880 o'clock.
Principal l. f. Neff would not say
whether he favored a shorter session.
He said there are many country and
rural district students who would be
handicapped by school opening at 8
O'Clock. In reply to this the leaders OF
the movement answered that the
country students were highly in IA
vor Of the proposed plan, and they
were willing to get to school half an
hour earlier provided that their after
noon session would be made shorter.
OF the twenty-six teachers in the high
school seventeen have been interview
ed and all favored the plan.
Mr.. Nefr also stated that he did not
think the school board would be in
favor of shortening the school ses.
sions. but that the board might consid.
er the dismissal OF students after they
1AA completed class recitations.

tion of the Offices, the committee has

tional Trial Were Be-
gun Today.

NORWALk, O., Nov. 15.-Prosecu-
tor Dickinson began his closing argu-
ment today in the case of Earnest
Welsh, charged with completely in
tarring Minnie LIE Valley, 19 year old
girl. 1t was expected that he would
complete his argument and that the
attorney for the defense would finish
his summing up in time for the case
to go to the jury tonight.
Judge Garger, who delivered his
charge to the jury before the argu-
ments were completed, said that if evi-
dence shows only two men were con-
cerned in the affair conviction could
only be made for assault and battery,
but if more than two men should be
shown to be concerned conviction
could be had for riotous conspiracy,

the defendants are under trial

More Witnesses Have Been
Summoned Before Grand
Jury to Tell About Alleged
Bootlegging.
GRAND JURY HAS
FOUND TWO BILLS
1t Is Believed that Mrs. Mae
Moore Was Indicted
Speculation Rife on 9th
er Indictment.

Two indictments were returned this
morning by the grand jury, it is said.
The jury was brought into the circuit
court room about 10 o'clock this morn
ing and the foreman, Richard Moore.
ready to report on part of its work.
The indictments were handed Judge
Fox and afterwards turned over to the
proper county officials.
1t is not known against whom the
true bills were returned. Warrants
for the arrest of those named in the
indictments have not been made out
by the prosecutor, it is understood.
1t is believed that one of the indict-
ments was in the William Thompson
murder case. Mrs. Mae Fee Moore,
the negress who confessed to the muir
der of Thompson at the Marshalett
hotel is now confined in the Home for
Friendless Women, pending trial. 1t
was necessary, however. to have an in
dictment against her before the prose
cution could proceed on the charge of
first degree murder.
Whether the other indictment is on
the Greensboro fire case or the alleged
bootIegging in that place is not known
The names contained in the true bills
will not be made public until arrests
are made in the cases.
Grand Jury Returns.
Following the reporting of the two
indictments, Judge Fox asked the fore
man of the grand jury if the jury had
other business and upon receiving an
affirmative answer. he instructed the
jury to retire to its room and finish
it's session.
Several of the witnesses in the
Greensboro cases have been recalled
by the grand jury and additional
names of Greensboro residents have
been added to the already long list.
1t is not known when the grand jury
will finish it's present session. Prose
cutor Joshua Allen stated Wednesday
that he believed the investigation of
the cases before the body would be
concluded Thursday. The jury has
been in session since last Friday.
Petit Jury Called.
Judge Fox today ordered the Octob-
Ci PCtil Jul iCpoIS dt thC
court room Monday morning at 10
O'Clock. The court stated that the
petit jury would hear a murder case,
although it is not known which case
will be taken up, as there are two
cases pending. Court attaches believe
that the trial of Samuel Whalen,
charged with the murder of Arthur
Saunders, a negro, on the night of
September Z, will be the first to be
taken up.
The Whalen case had been set for
today but because of the grand jury's
session the prosecutor was unable to
begin the case. Judge Fox stated
that the murder case to be opened
Monday would probably require at
least two or three days.
