Standard Dietaries a Topic.

Mabel Hyde kittredge, chairman of the
New York school lunch committee. was
another woman to address the congress.
She chose as her subject the relation of
menus to standard dietaries, and spoke
in part as follows:
The difficulty of this education for
the eradication of malnutrition is real
lied BY every one. In 1910 the chief
medical officer for the board of education
in London. stated that While defective
nutrition stands in the forefront as the
most important of all physical defects
from which school children suffer- there
is no condition harder to grapple, none
with such complex and interviewer
causes
Not Understanding the complexity OF
this problem, l still believe that we will
have taken one step forward when we
realize clearly that the penny lunch, il
taken alone without the perfectly possible
accompanying education in foods. food
values and education in buying, does but
little toward lessening the evil of malnu-
triton among school children. Public

The greatest danger perhaps of a pro-
vision OF meals is that they are as a salve

Homer Jenkins testified that the
deceased made a dying statement in
which he said that he did not point
the gun at the defendant or make any
effort to shoot him and did not know
that Shuster was attempting to shoot
him until after he was shot These
dying declarations were further testi-
fled to by W. H. Booth, Louis Vogt
and Andrew Ellige.
William McGinnis testified that in
March the defendant stated to him
there would be another Glenn and
Benham shooting in that community
and that he would get the first shot.
w. A. Baker, S. L. Star, Henry
Thomas, Robert Walters, and Elmer
Requa testified that the defendant
had bad reputation for truth and
veracity and for being peaceable
and law-abiding citizen.
William Vogt and Hubert Requa
testified as to the elevation of the
road where the killing took place and
the Shuster land on the north of it.
For the defense:
Frank Shuster testified that Babe"
Booth had made number of threats
against his life. That on the day of
the killing he was armed with gun
He had been blowing and unhitched
his team and had walked toward the
road to the south and turned west.
That he heard wagon coming down
the road, but gave it no particular at
tention. When about twenty steps
from the road he looked up and saw
Babe" Booth standing in the wagon
with gun pointed at him. That he
whirled and fired at Booth who fell
out of the wagon, but arose to his
knees with his gun in his hand. That
he fired again and then went up, took
Booths gun, went to his home and
later came to town and gave himself
up.
Shuster's little daughter practically
corroborated his testimony except
that she stated that she did not see
Booth get his gun to his shoulder.

given later.
The matter-of- fact manner in which
the country is accepting the new tar
if law, and the confidence by manu-.
facturers and merchants that they can
do business at profit, are refreshing
to us who have heard so much about
the ruin that would follow the passage
of the Underwood bill. Information
from all over the country is to the ef-
feet that trade is good, that factories
are running full time, that prices for
farm products are good, etc. The old
tariff fetch has at last been hanished,
the spell broken, and the American
people at last realize that they can
compete successfully with any other
people on the face of the earth. Why
not?

The peanut hunt given last week un-

League of the Methodist church, ar
ranged for and under the leadership of
Miss Kibbie Cottrell, was quite a sue
cess financially, as well as affording a

dered their beautiful lawn to the enthu-
siastic little band of workers and all the
conyeniences necessary were provided.

adept as hostess of the occasion, as well
as an expert in soliciting and disposing
of the refreshments served. The church
is looking forward to her as a most eff :
cient worker. Others of the young peo-
pie and some of the ladies lent their aid
in entertaining and serving. Ernest
Erwin was the successful contestant in

that one Whitmore Mccoy, colored, killed an
other negro man in open fight with guns In Han
cock county. in 1904 was tried for murder there
for, convicted and sentenced for life in the PEN
itentiary, sent up December 15, 1904.
Whitmofe Mccoy was never IN any trouble
before this affair, and had always been a hard
working, thrifty negro; respectful and we'll
liked among the white people, and as we have it
on good authority that his conduct Ia prison
during his entire nearly nine years has been
A-No.-i, ne being full .'trusry', half that time,
We believe his punishment has Deen sufficient.
We would therefore request you to sno mer-
ey to this black man, whose poverty most likely
prevented him from employing legal advisors,
whereby in all probability he would have been
convicted Of manslaughter instead Of murder
We ask you TO pardon this ignorant man, be-
Heving that he VIII be good, nardworking citi-
