to be sent for them. They stood the
confinement without protest for few
hours, but things were not very lively
in the neighborhood, and, besides, the
reception committee had deserted
them and 1t didn't seem just right for
30 many strangers in the city to spend
their first night penned up in a cor
raj without a chance to see the sightO.
It was some time after midnight
when the fun started. A few we'll d.
rected blows from the determined
hoofs, and breach was made In the
fence surrounding the corral. Five
minutes later seventy-five mules were
scampering at top speed through the
Mission, the clatter of their three
hundred hoofs startling householders
In quiet streets from their sleep and
bringing frightened faces to windows
Of the houses they passed. With utter
disregard Of city ordinances, the visi-,
tors trampled over gardens and lawns
and demolished everything In their
path.
In the course Of ten minutes the
Society for the Prevention Of Cruelty
to Animals received nine telephone
messages OF complaint regarding the
mules. Deputies were tumbled out Of
their beds and sent In pursuit.

excellent scheme for class use. and II

Where a girls school frocks are

can be fastened on with strings or
with shirtwaist pins. and as soil slips

q letter in a strange hand. The

which come fatty against the figure
and are fastened to some part Of the
frock by invisible hooks and eyes.

close to the belt, and running over It

BLOCTON STUDENTS
 OBSERVE KNAPP DAY
Appropriate Exercises Held Yester- day Following Postponement
 From November 27

Blocton, December 1s.-fSpeeial.) )-To- day an interesting and appropriate programme celebrated Knapp agrcul- tural day at Blocton school No. | On account of delay in receiving literature for the programme the exercises were postponed from the designated day, Nov ember 27. The recitation rooms and as- semby hall were decorated in holly and Christmas symbols. Many drawings of fruits, vegetables, flowers, fowls, ani- mals, leaves and trees emphasized the fact that it was agricultural day. This work was by pupils of every grade
 The programme was opened in a most unique and impressive way by the little tots of the primary room. With folded hands and bowed heads they llsped in reverent voices a short prayer, then joined the next grade in singing, God Will Take Care of You" after which they rendered an attractive programme
 A song by the whole school closed the primary part of the exercises and the pupils of the high school department gave something of the life and work of Dr. Knapp.
 The programme was closed by a short talk from Superintendent Harmon, in which he touched briefly the salient points in pr. Knapps career, showed clearly the immense value of his demon- stration work in the south, and empha- sized the importance of the proposed Knapp farm and school of country life, to both the agricultural and industrial development of the future south
