daughters Of both rich and poor. Its
graduates enter the University of
Tennessee upon equal terms with the
graduates of other institutions, public
or private. 1t has about 240 students,
more than the Columbia Military
Academy ever had in it's palmiest
days. In the main they are thought
full boys and girls who realize and
appreciate the value Of preparation
for the duties OF life. They are in
spired by the sincere desire to secure
the benefits of an education in order
that they may be the better fitted for
the great duties Of life. They do not
spend as much money for knickkhacks
and Jolly pops as the favored sons
who attend private school, but
they will in the end, man for man, do
as much or more for the advancement
of the country and create more wealth
than the students of the private in.
stitutions. Many of the boys who at
tend the county high school come q
distance Of six, eight and ten and
even twelve miles every day. They
make sacrifices that those who attend
the private schools do not have to
make, and since a man always appre-
ciates most that which costs him the
greatest effort, they naturally appre-
ciate in far greater degree the oppor-
tunities which their education, SO
dearly purchased, gives them, than
do their seemingly more favored
brothers.

tied to the very best possible equip

could train the hands as we'll as the
brain, for all cannot be preachers and
lawyers and teachers and doctors.
And if the boys and girls of this ccun-
ty were admitted to the grounds and
buildings of the Military Academy
property the funds that we propose
to expend for an adequate building
for their accommodation could then
be used to equip that institution for
practical and vocational education.
The Herald is of course in favor of
the location at Columbia of an Agri-
cultural and Mechanical School for
Middle Tennessee. It believes that
the property of Columbia Military
Academy is ideally located, and equip
ped with land and buildings for such
an institution. The editor of this pa
per as a member of the Board Of
Trade two years ago, offered a resclu-
ton in the board that an effort be
made to secure for Columbia such an
institution. But this paper believes
that in using the property of the Co
lumbia Military Academy that the
boys and girls of this county should
be given the preference; that 1t
should be used primarily for the prac-
teal education of the youth of this
county; that in order to insure this
the institution established at this
property should be in part controlled
and supported by the county and city.
In other words the institution should
be SO established and maintained that

and buildings were inadequate fo- the
accommodation OF all who desired to

WON ANS DISABILITIES.

One bill that the legislature should
pass without delay and one about
which there should be little disagree
ment is that to remove the legal dis-
abilities of married women. The laws
which hamper and restrict the rights
and privileges of married women in
the control and disposition of their
own property have survived from
feudal days when women were re-
garded with much less consideration
than they are now. These laws we're
the result of the prevailing opinion
of the times in which they were pass
ed, that woman was without the judg-
ment and discretion and the sense to
attend to her own affairs. Since that
time there has been remarkable
change in the attitude OF man toward
woman. The latter has been enamel
pated. She has demonstrated her ca
pacity to attend to business She has
been successful in the counting
rooms, in the professions and in many
avocations of life She has shown
that she can safely be trusted to at
tend to any of the duties of life.
There are many successful women
farmers in the country. Where they
have been elected to places of public
trust they have shown conception
of duty and a business acumen that
compare favorably with man.
The laws which restrict the rights
of married women are anticipated.
They are not in line with the spirit
of the times Women have the same
capacity for the transaction of their
affairs that are shown by the average
men. They should have the same
right to dispose of their own thai is
accorded by the laws to their Lus-
bands. The idea that a wife shall
only have child's share in the per-
sonal property of the husband while
the latter, upon marriage takes pos

justice that the ideas of this enligh,en-
ed day will no longer tolerate. Msrri-
age should be an equal partnership.
The advantage 80 far as property is
concerned, should not be in favor of
either of the contracting parties The
law should make both equal With
the emancipation of woman we ex.

idea of double standard of morals.
Women tolerate such standarI be-
cause they are so accustomed to a
man ruled world that they take as

A GOOD RECOMMENDATION.

Gov. Hooper E,ade a number of cap
ital suggestions in his message. In
fact if after the elections, the legisla-
ture would make the necessary arpro-
priations, carry into the statutes the
recommendations of Gov. Hooper and
adjourn Tennessee would have about
the best government that it has ever
had. But one recommendation of the
Governor is especially worthy Of ap-
proval and that is the enactment Of
law that will prevent members of
the legislature from practicing a.
lawyers before the governor or any
department of the state governmen t.
Had we had law of this character
we would have been saved much of
the scandal of the Patterson admins
tration. Members of the legislature
should not be permitted to use the
power and prestige of their positions
to influence the action of the depart
ments of the state government.
The federal government long ago
saw the necessity of similar law
prohibiting members of congress
from practicing before the depart
ments. Its wisdom has long since
been demonstrated. If men are not
willing to serve simply as represen-
tatives of all the people while in the
Legislature but must prostitute their
places for private gain they should
stay at home.

By appointing some of the men
who will constitute the next venire
for the circuit court the county court
OF this county made about the most
effective argument that we have yet
seen advanced for the appointment
of jury commission in this county.
Jurors should all be men of unim-
peachable characters and the very
best habits and if the county court
will not give the people men of this
sort there should be a change that
will do so.

FEMALE BALL COACH.
Gertrude B. SchilI Instructs Cham
pionship Team in Chicago.

Chicago. Aug. 25.-Now comes the
woman baseball coach. Miss Gertrude
B. Schill proved her success, as she
with the Calumet kids who have been
practicing all season under her instruc-
ton won the annual championship OF
the South Side municipal parks.
Miss Schill became director of attn
letics at Calumet park early last spring
but up to four months ago she had .
better knowledge of biscuits than base
ball. When the children clamored for
a baseball team in April she at first
refused because there was no one to
coach them. They became inSistent and
she determined to try her own hand at
it.
Miss Schill purchased several books
on baseball and in q month she knew
as much about the game the lads
she was teaching. She attended sew
eral major league games and observed
how the plays on paper worked out.
Then she drilled the youngsters in in
side baseball. teaching them all the
tricks they would learn and they learn
ed fast.
When the small parks tournament
started the kids showed their training
by taking advantage of every slip Of
the opposing team, with Miss SchilI on
the side line giving the signals The
Calumet players defeated four teams
coached by men who formerly played
college baseball and on Sunday beat
the Sherman park nine, to ) for the
title.
