Dr.. William S. Love.

DR.. William S. Love, a widely known
and much beloved physician of Winches-
ter, Va, died at his home there on
Thursday night last. while engaged in
prayer. He was born in Ireland, and
was brought to this country by his par
ents when only six weeks, old. He
graduated in medicine at the UDiver-
sity of Pennsylvania IN 1850 A year
later he entered the Confederate army
as Surgeon After the war he settled
in Winchester, where he practlced his
profession ever since, and was always
at the service of the community, the
richest and the poorest alike. He mar
ried daughter of the late Charles
James Faulkner. The people of the
entire Shenandoah Valley will mourn
the passing of this great and good man.

An Experts Opinion.

G. Harold Powell, manager of the
California Fruit Growers Exchange,
which will ship about so. 900 car loads of
oranges this year, paid visit recently
to the site of the San Diego Exposition
and inspected the model orange grove
which will be the main exhibit Of the
Southern Counties of California. Mr..
Powell, who has record of fifteen years
in the Government service in Washing
ton said:
Without any doubt. the site you
have chosen for your San Diego EXPOSE
tion is the finest in every way of any
exposition site in the last twenty years.
That is the limit of my experience with
worlds expositions, but I've seen them
all in that period and doubt if there
was ever site before that combined
such wonderful view, such magnificent
climate and every possible advantage
that nature has to offer. .
The orchard which the Southern
counties has set out as part Of their
exhibit is in splendid condition, " con.
tinued Mr.. Powell. Your people here
certainy know how to handle growing
things They have the touch as we
say. By 1915 the 800 trees in that
orchard will be fine, lusty young speci-
mems with plenty of fruit and blossoms
to show the Eastern visitor how they
grow citrus fruits in California. It is
Ia mighty fine thing and should be big
feature in later years in your park.
In fact. the whole planting and per-
manent building scheme of your exposi-
ton will be mighty big thing for your
city in future years, for it will give
you a splendidly developed park Of
great size.

The Extra Session.

Governor GIasscock's call for an ex-
ira session of the legislature to begin
January 2-six days before the regular
session Is not much of surprise. be-
cause it has been suspected that such
4 course has been on his mind for quite
while. We gather from the fore word
given out from the capitol that the
county salary law will be the chief
purpose Of the extra session. Six days
seems very short time and yet that
ought to be time enough in which to
dispose Of q matter SO simple and
which has been so thoroughly canvassed
and so we'll understood. The Governor,
it seems to US, is right in the position
that no valid constitutional objections
against changing the sheriffs from a
fee to q salary basis can be urged The
presidents quoted hold that with offices
whose compensation is made in fees or
10 an allowance by the county court,
these fees or allowances can be changed
by the. Legislature or by the county aft
ter the official shall have been induced
into Office. But, no doubt, these officials.
recently elected will fight the proposed
reform, III not upon legal grounds: then
upon the plea that they were elected
with the understanding that they were
to receive the fees now charged This
contention can be considered by the
legislature if not by the courts, and
past history teaches us that the sheriff 9
organization is one of power.
Ii has been estimated that approxi-
mately one million dollars could be
saved by changing our fee system to a
salary system; and the consideration
that the whiskey revenue must soon be
lost and there is always the danger
that thew Virginia debt will have to be
paid, makes 1t wise to devise some
means Of increasing revenue or lower
ing the cost of government. Many
sherfffs are paid now compensation
higher than that Of the Vice-President
Of the United States, or a cabinet
officer; and twice as much as United
Atates Senator, while other officials are
oorly. paid. Salaries should be adj
listed according to the duties, the Dig
/ nifty and the responsibilities of the po-
sition; and it must be admitted that
many sheriffs now receive more than
they should upon any known basis of
computation. That it is right to read
just the compensation of many officials
il beyond doubt; whether it should be
done now Is question before deciding
which we would want to know more of
tho details Of the situation. The legis-
lature ought to be able to organize
and get down to business in the six
days before the regular session begins,
at all events. Gazette.

The Holiday Season.
Change Of Form. .

In compliance. with suggestions
advanced by number of readers,
we will, after the first of the year,
return to our old form Of issuing
the Free Press.
1t appears that a larger single
sheet paper, with more available
space for home news, suits a ma
jority of our readers best.
At any time that this should
not seem to be their opinion, we
can and will, if desired, publish
the Free Press in the form in
which it has been appealing for
the last year.
Following a time honored GUS
tom Of the press of the County
to give the printer-man' a well
earned rest, no issue will appear
Outing Christmas week.
To each and every one of the
growing number Of Free Press
readers and advertisers, we wish
4 a Merry Christmas and very
happy and prosperous New Year
and. pledge to them our best eff
forts along the lines of newspaper
endeayor in the bright future
upon which the country il

Plenty Of Red Apples For Empty
Stockings.
w. E. Loves Saw Story Of Need In
The Baltimore Evening Sun And
Secured A Supply.

Rosy-checked apples aresto be had
after all in quantities enough to make
possible the placing of at least one big
rosy one in the stockings of the small
'benenciaries of the Empty Stocking
Club at the Christmas treat to be given
the poor children of Baltimore at Ford's
on Friday Of this week.
A little story in The Evening Sun
last Friday called attention to the fact
that the apple committee was having
difficulty in finding apples sufficiently
rosy for the stockings of the children.
This morning Mrs Bushrod NJ Watts.
chairman Of the committee, received q
letter from William E. Loves stating
that he had seen the story and noted
the dearth of red apples in Baltimore
on his return from Chicago. where he
had visited the Chicago apple exhibi
ton.
West Virginia had the finest red
apple exhibit, Mr.. Loves said, and SO
he at once wired to West Virginia to
send to the Empty Stocking Club apple
committee the very biggest and best
red-cheeked apples to be had at this
time Mr.. Loves assures Mrs. Watts
in his letter that the apples win arrive
from the famous West Virginia apple
belt by express tomorrow. He adds
that there aren't any redder apples
anywhere and that he is glad to help
provide the real Christmas kind Of
apples for the Empty Stocking Club
children.

wrote the express company. Now this
gives the farmer between 10 and II
cents per basket for the shipment, which
would hardly pay for the labor involved
in picking the peaches. Obviously, the
farmer wasn't satisfied, and would do
better to let his peaches fall to the
ground and rot. sAnd yet there were a
good many million people in the Eastern
cities who were not able to get as
many peaches as they would like to
have. There is a pretty big problem
here. Maybe the express company $
share was exorbitant; certainly the
farmers share was grossly inadequate
One fact noticeable is that the express
company has control of the situation;
they take their share what ever hap
pens; the farmer gets what's left In
considering solutions. don't forget the
suggestion that a good many people
who live in cities and can't earn enough
there to buy peaches might well get up
and go where the peaches grow, which
IS also the place of fresh air, abundan:
food, and wholesome living. Exchange

Carlisle, Pa, Sept. 21.-If there is
anyone who doubts that Jim Thorpe,
Oklahoma Indian, Is the greatest attn
lete in the world, let him come to Car
Isle and Judge for himself. When he
comes he will see 1856 pounds of highly
specialized man, whom the ozone OF
Oklahoma and the fine crystal air OF
the Cumberland valley have filled
with tremendous and persistent vigor
Thorpe Is q great athlete and he looks
the part. Nearly six feet tall, his mus
cular development Is beautifully
smooth. He combines, In his perfect
type, the best attributes OF the
sprinter and the weight man.
Thorpe has been at the Carlisle
Indian school for five years and dur
Ing that time he has brought fame to
the institution. On more than one
occasion his work has brought vic
tory to Carlisle teams. He Is equally
good on the track, the diamond and
the gridiorn. He Is captain OF the
Carlisle Indian football team this
year.
But It has not been at Carlisle
that Thorpe has accomplished his
most wonderful feats. Not until ne
took part In the Olympic games at
Stockholm this summer did he gain
an international reputation and earn
the proud title, "the greatest ath-
lete in the world"
At the Olympic games he won the
penthalon and the Decathlon- the
first a five, the second ten-event
contest. Never before in the history
OF the world had an athlete made 50
wonderful a record in competition.
In the Decathlon, out OF a possible
10000 points he gained 8,4l2, an un.
heard-of achievement. HIS nearest
competitor was 700 points benlnd nlm'
the next Jagged along 1000 to the pad.
