Piano day was held at the Villas

debt of SIS. Every year the school has
had an enchilada supper or some other
such feature to raise money toward
paying for the instrument. This has
always meant that the children give
almost as much in contributions as are
made al the affairs, so it was decided
this year to have voluntary subscrip-
tons among the students.

SUPREME COURT PRACTICALLY RE
VERSES MIMEOOAPH DECISION.
NERVE TONIC WAS THE ISSUE
Court Holds That Patent Gives Owner
the Right to Vend Articles, but
Not the Right to Keep Up
the Price of Same.

Washington.-The socalled patent
monopoly" which threatened to prevent
cut rates by retailers in all patented ar.
ticles on the market, was destroyed by
a decision of the supreme court OF the
United States.
The court held that the owners OF
patents are not given the right by the
patent law to control the price at which
retailers must sell to consumers. The
decision, in words, applied only to a
nerve tonic, for which a patent had
been issued, but will control all pat
ented articles being sold under restric'
tions not to resell at cut rates.
The court reversed the policy adopt
ed in the famous "~mimeograph' case,
decided a little over a year ago, when
only seven justices were on the bench.
but allowed that case to stand SO far
as it goes. Thus was accomplished what
has been unsuccessfully sought in con.
gress ever since the "mimeograph case
was decided.
In the "mimeograph case Justices
McKenna, Lurton, Holmes and Vandc.
venter upheld the right of patent own.
ers to place restrictions IN the nature
of articles to be used on the patented
article sold. Chief Justice White and

BRILLIANT ARRAY OF BEAUTY
FEATURES OPENING DAY.
SONS OF VETERANS ELECT
Gov. Hooper Hissed-Cheers, However,
Finally Drown Demonstration When
Republican Executive We'll
comes Veterans.

Chattanooga. - Eloquent addresses,
spectacular parades and scores OF social
entertainments in honor of veterans,
sponsors and maids of honor character
lied the opening day of the twenty
third annual United Confederate Vet
Grams reunion in this city. The only
discordant note was sounded at the
FIRST business session Of the veterans,
when Kisses, finally drowned out by
cheers, slightly delayed Gov. Ben W..
Hooper of Tennessee in delivering his
address of welcome. The Tennessee ex-
e%cutive, who is said to have been the
first Republican governor to welcome n
reunion of Confederate Veterans, disre-
garded the disturbance, and was given
an ovation at the conclusion OF his re-
marks.
Throughout the day the influx Of Wis
itors continued. Every train added
hundreds to the thousands already IN
the city. Although the weather was
threatening, no rain fell, and the tenn
perature remained in the sixties.
Despite the GOODNESS, hundreds OF
sponsors representing almost every d.
vision in the Confederate army partici-
pated in the parade. In flmy gowns
and laces they were driven in automo-
biles along the principal streets OF the
city. Thousands lined the sidewalks to
witness the pageant, while the capacity
of special reviewing stands was taxed
to the utmost.
Gen. Bennett H Young, commander
in-chief of the United Confederate Vet.
Grams, and Gov. Hooper, with their
stats, reviewed the parade from an Of
fetal stand erected at Gen. Young's
headquarters.
The aged veterans who thronged the
streets appeared 20 enjoy the display
immensely.
As each automobile passed, filled with
beautiful girls, the veterans leaned over
the restraining ropes along the street,
waved their hats and threw kisses to
the Southern beauties. These in turn
acknowledged the greetings and tossed
flowers to the soldiers.
The review of the Eleventh United
States cavalry furnished a novel spec.
taele to many visitors who had never
witnessed a similar demonstration.
More than a thousand cavalrymen ana
officers cantered through the city and
passed in review before Gen. Bennett u.
Young and scores of sponsors, maids of
honor and matrons of honor. All the
officers saluted the gray.haired veteran
commander.in-ehief as they passed, and
the regimental band played Dixie"
Business sessions were held by both
the United Confederate Veterans snd
the Sons of Veterans.
William w. Old, Jr., of Norfolk, Va.

WomanIiness.

Perhaps it would not be so easy to
lose "womanliness" as some people
seem afraid it would be. Perhaps all
the pow-wow about becoming desexed
is superfiuous. Waninger calls atten-
ton to the fact that while there are
people who are anatomieally men and
psychically women, there is no such
thing as a person who is anatomically
woman and psychically man. How
ever masculine her appearance, a
woman's psychic qualities remain dis
tinctively feminine. At least, Mr..
Weininger says SO.
