1t must do more than interest it,,
1t should got the reader in sympathy

The facts can be so written that they
will carry their own argument and
also carry convictions. Such an edu-
cational press bureau established in
this city or Frankfort could and would
arouse more interest and create more
public sentiment for the rural schools

such an opportunity will not be al

New York, February ol.-The suit
of John Armstrong Chaloner of Nir-
glnla. TO have the United States Court

The suit. contrary to general opin-

unless some Of tho forms OF law were
not complied with. we cannot here

The decree of the court OF the State
OF Virginia that Chaloner Is sane gives
presumption for an inquiry, but in it :.
self 1t is no more entitled to credit

the court of tho State of New York
That the man Is insane"
Though Mr.. Chaloner has United

He is intentiy suspicious MS result
