Broadway to fill an important engage

Miss Rochte and Coffin proceeded to

Miss Rochte led him up to a stalwart

SPEAKER ADVOCATES
COMMUNITY CLUBS
C.. O.. Williams Also Urges
Vocational Training in
Rural Schools.
ADVANTAGES ON FARM
Superintendent Says Farm
ers Should Hold Chill
dren in Country.
ADVANTAGES ON FARM

Vocational training in the country
schools was strongly advocated by
County Superintendent Williams in a
talk before the Columbia Farmers as
ISOLATION last night The work Of
County Agent Cobb in establishing
community clubs in the county will
receive the support of the county SUI
perintendent of schools, he said.
Mr.. Williams subject was Farmer
and His School He first introduced
in his talk the good which is already
apparent from vocational training in
the schools, especially the country
schools. He made comparison Of
the first rural schools with the pres
ent-day country schools. The evolu-
ton of subjects taught in these
schools was given.
Years ago, the farmers children
received their only education before
academy, in the home" said Mr.. Will
liams. Then country schools were
established and such subjects as Lat
in, Greek, mathematics and other
studies entirely impractical for use by
men who intended following farming,
formed a large part of the curricu-
lum.
War History Studied.
AT the time of the civil war when
patriotism was needed, revolutionary
war history was introduced. 1t had
the desired effect on that generation.
Then men began to see that country
children needed something besides
cultural or disciplinary work and that
the practical side had been neglected.
The changes came about gradually,
and there is still more to be done
along the line of giving children in
both country and city schools what is
needed In their life's work.
The idea of vocational work in
schools is not to turn out imitators
who are able to do just what Is taught
them, but to give the pupils broader
minds LAS a part of the vocational
education comes the community or
CARNATIONS such as the Columbia
club, to go beyond what one teacher
can express and give men a chance
to exchange ideas and discuss sub
jects which others put before them.
Wants More Clubs.
| hope to see many more clubs
established in the county, and | want
the schools fully equipped for voca-
tional work"
Mr.. Williams deplored the fact that
many young men and women are leav-
ing the farm He said the farmers
make the mistake of telling their
children that farm life is easier than
city life, painting pictures of an easy
life in the fresh air and sunshine, as
compared with dark scenes of life in
a city. He told the farmers to take
their boys into factories and have
them ask men how much they make,
how much they save and how long
they usually hold their jobs,
Fred Davis, president of the associ-
alton, spoke on the advantages intro
duced into farm life. He appealed to
the young people at the meeting to
take advantage of the advanced meth
eds now offered.

AS an aid in jumping rabbits from
their nests in meadows and stubble
fields, a few Preble county hunters
have struck upon a scheme which is
said to be working like a charm. a
chain of medium weight is the main
asset, Reaching a field to be hunted,
the sportsmen take hold of each end
of the chain and walk apart far
enough to permit the drag to touch the
ground. This scheme makes the hunt
thorough and requires but little time
to cover all the territory,

TWENTY-E|GHT DIE
IN TEXAS FLOODS
High Water Moves South
ward Devastating Rich
Farm Lands.

DALLAS, Tex, Dec. 5.-Although
food conditions have improved in the
northern section of the devastated
central Texas, the food center has
moved southwark today and lives and
property were menaced between Rich
mOnd and Hearne. The heavy rain
has ceased, and as the water receded
the state troops became more vigilant
in guarding against looters. In East
Waco today residents returning to
their homes reported that hundreds of
dollars worth of valuable had veen
stolen while the water covered the
town.
The total number drowned during
the flood is reported to be twenty
eight, as stated in yesterdays dis
patches, but it was feared a larger
number had persisted in some of the
outlying sections, which are still out
of communications.

WEATHER CAUSES
UPSET IN MARKET
Consumption of Oysters Is
Less Than Half That of
Past Season.

Prevailing warm weather has CON
sderably upset the market OF food
stuffs. The delectable oyster has so
slumped in demand that dealers have
been CanCeIling advance orders right
and left At the present the cOnsump-
ton OF oysters for the beginning OF the
oyster season has ben less than half
what it usually is. according TO a state
ment made by John Eggemeyer today.
With the continued warm weather
the hens have started to laying again.
Where week ago a dozen eggs was a
large consignment from one farm they
are now arriving in six dozen lots.
They are now retailing at forty cents
dozen.
Egg Prices Drops.
The high price of eggs has cut
their demand and with this has come
decrease in the price of bacon
which is less sought for when eggs
can not be had to serve with it The
price of chickens is being kept high
by the scarcity OF rabbits. Usually at
this time of year the market is flooded
with the COttOntails. but there are few
to be had this year and so the demand
is turned to chickens.
Indications point to cheaper turkeys
for Christmas than could be obtained
for Thanksgiving. Few of the birds
were marketed for Thanksgiving be
cause they were in poor condition,
most of the turkey raisers preferring
to hold them for the Christmas trade
when they would be in better COndi
ton. Dealers paid sixteen and seven
teen cents a pound for them then, but
are counting on getting them for the
Christmas trade for at least two cents
less.
Apples Also Cheaper.
Warm weather has cheapened the
price of high-grade apples which have
been taken from storage, The deal
ers are unable to hold them long and
in many cases are going to be COM
PEELED to let loose of them at asac-
ritice New York state opples drop
ped a dollar a barrel in price in the
last week.
Even Florida oranges have felt the
depressing influence of the weather
Large quantities Of them are held in
Chicago and Cincinnati every winter,
waiting to be shipped wherever scare
ity develops. The warm weather has
compelled the shippers to sell them at
once, and as a result the price of or
anges has dropped IS cents on the
box during the present week
Grapes have suffered from the
weather. Good grapes are scarce and
very high in price, while there is a
market at a relatiVesly low price.

London Stock Market

London. February 22.-The absence of
any material movement toward peace in
the near east continues to restrict busi-
ness on the stock exchange. During the
week the various markets were generally
easy. and 1t was necessary to maintain
the i per cent bank rate which other
wise could have been lowered but for the
improving position of the bank. The
market troubles began with the Rou-
mania Bulgarian controversy inducing
Paris and Berlin selling. Then the Mex
ican situation and Morgans sickness up

rails while labor difficulties added their
quota with other inertia depressed home

American securities recovered on the
deposition of Madero.

by the belief that the far east situation
will be satisfactorily arranged, but re-
newed uneasiness developed at the end
Of the week on rumors of financial trou-
bic In the provinces and OH the conti-
nent. The features of the trading were
the sharp rise in Sac Panlo rails and
steady investment buying of Argentine
rails. 1t was rumored that the Brazil
railway was buying Sac Paulos for con-
troll American securities lost 2 to 6 points
despite a mid-week rally, the Mexican
trouble, new issues and fears of labor
trouble causing general selling.
Money in fair request. Discount rates

financial centers, but hardened toward
the close. American securities quiet. A
good tone prevailed and prices closed

New York, February 22.-New low

tent periods of rising prices, but the up
turns apparently were due chiefly to short
covering rather than to any Improvement

mood, encouragement might have heen

such as the news that the strike of fire.

co City, and evidences Of more hopeful
feeling in Europe regarding the political
