New Directors Elected.

AS result of a meeting of the
stockholders of the Bourbon County
Agricultural Society held at the court
house Saturday afternoon, ten mem
bers of the directorate which served
last year were dropped and their sue
| cessOrs named, while the remaining
number composing the Board of Di-
rectors regre-elected forfthe ensuing
year. The deposed directors are J. T.
Hinton. j. M. Brennan, N. F. Brent,
K. B. Hutchcraft. F. P. Lowry, r.
P. Hopkins. " w. Ferguson, ]. d.
McClintock, John T. Collins and ]. w.
| Davis.
The meeting was presided over by
Hon. c. M. Thomas who was chosen as
| temporary chairman, while G. Arm
| psarger acted as secretary. When the
meeting was called to order the outgo-
ing board voted to reconsider its action
regarding the case of Allie Jones, of
North Middletown, one of the mCst
prominent exhibitors in Central Ken
lucky, who was barred from further
participation at the fairs of the Soci-
ETY..
lbe members ii the board who were
reelected were G. Arnsparger, A. P.
Adair, ]. F. Harbee. H. S. Caywood,
]. M. Hall, Robert Meter. w. G. Tai
bott, G. M. Thomas, j. Miller Ward
and A. S. Thompson, while the new
members chosen were Duncan Bell, F.
P. Campbell. S. G. Clay, T. H. Clay,
Jr., Allie Jones. w. G. Massie, George
Rassenfoss, George w. Stuart. George
d. Speakes and j. u. Boardmsn.
The new board of directors will hold
meeting at some time in the near fu-
ture to consider the election of officers
to serve next year. Mr.. ]. M. Hall,
who has been at the head of the socie-
ty since its rejuvenation seven years
ago, will probably again be elected
president. while Mr.. w. G. Talbot is
likely to be elected to succeed himself
as vice president. Mr.. Chas. Weber,
who for several years has acted as
secretary, is not an applicant for the
position. The Office of treasurer will
probably be filled by Mr.. G. Arnsparg-
er, the present incumbent.
According to Mr.. JONES' the old
Board reconsldered It's former action
without protest from him. He fur
ther. states that the newspaper reports
concerning his action on the last day of
the fair, were incorrect and that he
used 10 unbecoming language in the
ring toward the judges or the commit
tee. Mr.. Jones said yesterday that he
has not decided whether he will accept
a position on the Board, but will reach
decision before the next meeting of
the body.
At the next meeting of the society's
directors, matters looking toward the
holding of the fair next year will be
discussed from every angle, and it is
probable that early action will be TAX
On in securing line of high class at
fractions for the fair next year. The
matter of changing the dates will come
up at this meeting also.
Several of those who are interested
in the welfare of the society have dis
cussed the possibility of having the
Krause shows which exhibited here
last week under the auspices of the
Maccabees to return for the fair next
year. The management of the carni-
val company will keep in touch with
the local people in regard to IT, and
expressed desire to return to this
city at A later date.

Col. Clay Aband0ns Farming.

Col. +. F. Clay. former president
of the Kentucky Racing Association
and proprietor Of Runnymeade Stud,
on account of i'll health. has decided to
discontinue the active management of
his magnificent farm on the Cynthiana
pike, and in short time will leave
with his family to spend the winter at
his summer home, which is located at
Eustis, Fla.
Col. Clay is one of the most promi-
nent farmers in Central Kentucky and
for years has been engaged in the ex-
tensive breeding of thoroughbreds, un-
til recently, when ne disposed Of all
his thoroughbred holdings and retired
from the turf. He. in connection with
Mr.. Catesby Woodfnrd, owned some of
the highest class horses in this coun-
try, among the number being Star
Shoot, Sir Dixon. and the famous i'm
ported stallion, Carlton Grange, and
their breeding establishment ranked
second to none in Kentucky.
Several months ago Col. Clay suffer-
ed slight attack of pneumonia, from
the effects OF which he has never re-
covered. and while his condition at
present is very favorable, it is not
thought advisable for him to remain in
this climate until extremely cold
weather begins, and following his usu-
al custom he will GO to Florida, how
ever, little earlier this fall.
Col. Clay has leased his farm to
Messrs. N. II. Tavior and John Wood
fnrd. roserving the residence and a
part of the farm tor his personal use.

industrial geography, botany, zool-
ogy, physiology, domestic science
and agriculture is too often ne
elected, or, if furnished at all, be-
cause it is incidental to the equip
ment of chemical and physical lab
oratories. There is a tendency in
some of the schools to adjust the
supply of equipment, the instruc-
ton in the class, and the nature
of the experiments to meet the
requirements of the College Ger
tificate Board. This method may
be all right as related to students
who expect to enter college, but
is not fair to those students who
expect TO finish their education
with a high school course. If the
secondary schools are to be the
college for the people, there is
need of a considerable readjust-
ment in our teaching staff, in our
courses of study, and in the ma
terial equipment of the schools to
meet the needs and interests of
the boys and girls of the State.
An encouraging sign is the ten
dency to establish commercial
courses on a four years basis with
the technical instruction of the
course placed largely in the last
two years.
