CHANGE IT'S POLICY

The Lynchburg News, in a re-
cent, well conceived editorial,
discusses the suggestion, re-
peatedly made heretofore, that
the Virginia Polytechnic Insti-
tute change its course of study
and policy, become an Agri-
cultural school exclusively. After
considering at length both sides
of the question the News reaches
the conclusion that it would be
unwise to make the change.
There are now, says The News,
BOZ students studying engineer
ing, Applied Science, and only
139 studying Agriculture ex-
cluslvely, and it is not at all
clear that the Agricultural De-
partment would be increased by
the change.
The question is an important
one, and as we see it, impossible
OF solution except by actual trial
and experiment. The institution
being already equipped to give
instruction in other branches
than Agriculture, and apparently
at least, doing good work along
these other lines, the suggested
change might work other than
inevitable financial losses. I'm
less the adjustment of these
other schools would enable the
management to widen and ex-
tend the work of the Agricultur-
al school, which is not at all i'm
possible, the change would profit
nothing.
The V. P. l. plant, endow-
ment, working capital and all,
makes a total investment of over
million, one hundred and
seventy thousand dollars.
The complaint rather than
criticism is often made that such
an Investment should be more
fruitful of direct, tangible re-
suits. The owners of the school.
the people of the State, want to
see it prosper. They want it's
influence and help in the great
agricultural interests. What is
taught besides will make little
difference if only the agricultur-
al interest is fostered.

part in its control or direction.
Mr.. Eggleston's' election will
have attached TO itthat suspicion
unavoidably.
An alienated alumni and dis
satisfied and resentful public
would make formidable obstacles
to the success of an institution
depending for its life on State
support, on the good will OF the
Legislature and the patronage of
the people. Where will be the
sense of creating those obstacles
unnecessarily to crafty the
wishes or ambitions of one man
or the purposes of any small
group of men?

Better Schools For The County.

Much has been said and writ
ten in the last few years with
reference to the great influx of
population from the country to
the town and cities. Many causes
for this condition have been
given, and Some remedies pre-
scribed, but so far as | now re-
call, l have not seen the
educational advantages and dis
advantages of the Country re-
ferred to.
( Good Roads, Rural Free De-
livery and the telephone contri-
butte much to the convenience
and comfort of country life, but
these things do not, and cannot
take the place of good schools.
Many of our people are either
selling or renting their farms
and moving to the towns and
cities in order that they may get
the advantages of good schools,
and in a majority of cases, these
people are the most intelligent
and the best to do, and their go
ing creates void in the rural
districts that cannot be supplied.
Good schools in the country
will have great influence to-
ward holding the people and
stopping the great influx of
population to the towns, and
with our good roads, in many
sections of our great country,
High Schools are a possibility
and are perfectly practicable.
! We have a number of neigh
borhoods with more than one
hundred children of school age,
and within reach of one school
and with the required number
OF High School grades. Why are
not these children entitled to as
much consideration as a like
number who happen tc live in
town? Why are they not entitled
to more consideration, in some
respects at least? Is it not a fact,
that, as rule, the possibilities
of the town boy and the country
boy are, or seem to be, in favor
of the country boy? Take a look
at the professional and business
men of the town and pass judg-
ment.
Some of the brightest boys
and girls to be found are in the
country, and in many instances,
have poor parents who are moi
. able to live in town nor senC
, their children away from home
, to school. The country school is
so primary in its grades, that il
does not sufficiently educate
those who attend it for teaching,
, and the education Of these poor
| children is cut short at period
when they are too young to &c
out and shift for themselves,
? and their great opportunities
, and possibilities, in most in.
= stances, are lost.
1t has been said it is not law
: full to have high schools in the
, country. If this is true, the law
is not only arbitrary, but is in
favor of a class, and should be
repealed.
, | am not complaining of what
> the towns get, but of what the
country does not get.
, | think all aspirants for ap
t pointment to the County Superin.
| tendecy of public schools should
be asked to state their position
! relative to the country school,
and if opposed to it giving
| equal opportunities with the town
: school, where the conditions car
be met, should not be appointed

A Rhapsody on Buckwheat

1t would not at ali surprise us
to hear that the editor of the
Clinch Valley News has been
buried alive in bouquets thrown
at him by admiring women. He
has written and printed an essay
entitled Directions for Buck
wheat Makers and Eaters. F"
The thing is a masterpiece of
wit, humor and culinary wisdom.
1t makes ones mouth water
merely to recall it. We have
never made buckwheat cakes
ourselves, but we bet dollars to
doughnuts that the Clinch Valley
News man will win the alteration
of all feminity by his compost
ton. And he deserves all the
glory that's coming to him.
1t was a query from one
mares S." which made the
editor open the sluices of his
eloquence. Marcus S." desired
to know the best method of pre-
pairing and eating buckwheat
cakes. And he has got the in
formation he wanted.
After first looking at his books
to see if the inquirer had paid
his last years subscription and
having found the account all
right, the editor proceeded to
gush forth his advice.
Beginning at the beginning,
he said:
Gin the first place, Mark, it is
necessary that you should have
buckwheat. Get buckwheat, dear
friend; honestly if you can; but
get buckwheat."
The Tazewell kind is recon-
mended in this connection, and
a warning is sounded against the
tin-can grocery store variety.
To quote the editor "you want
the wheat with a buck in front
of it, and then you are certain
of the right kind Of doe, so to
speak,"
AS to converting "the raw
material into the manufactured
product" the editor says:
Measure out a full, honest
Methodist quart of flour for
every five persons or fractional
part thereof, according to cir
cumstances. If the fortunate
people who are to partake have
good, strong digestive apparatus
100 proof and elastic in proper
ton, better make it about 25 pei
cent stronger or larger to be
sure of it"
Next the editor, now in com
plete frenzy Of enthusiasm, says
Make the flour into a batter
of proper consistency, put in {
spoonful or two of yeast and stil
it round and round and set the
crock in a warm place. Thi.
should be done the evening be-
forehand. That batter will 90 t.
work and work all night anc
next morning it will have ri;
and perhaps overlooked and rur
out all over the kitchen floor.
Here follow directions as to tn,
details of cooking. The buck.
wheat specialist is warned t.
make the cakes neither too large
nor too small. "Down on Clear
Fork they make them large
enough to dance a jig on" adds
our authority, "but this may be
a little large, depending on cir
cumstances, inward and out
ward"
The Clinch Valley man likes
his about the size of his plate
and on getting down to bushes:
he tackles about four of "these
brown motley face, pockmarked'
delicacies at a time, while they
are still sizzling hot"
AS seasoning he suggests {
can of sorghum, maple syrup, {
print Of butter or a mice disl
of juicy, brown sausage near al
hand, within easy reach"
Further advice follows, but il
is so convincing, so enticing anc

SOCIETY INTERESTED
in TRIAL OF BEACH

ling to the story as told later, Pearl
Hampton, a negro maid in the Beach
household, was with Mrs. Beach that
might. The girl was knocked down
and stunned by blow with fence
paling first and it is said that accord
ling to her statement to the police her
assailant as white man. Then, pre-
sumably by the same assailant, Mrs.
Beach, who had followed her maid
into the courtyard, was knocked down.
The assailant, according to her state
ment, negro, tore the earrings out
of her ears and slashed her throat with
a sharp knife. Almost exhausted by
the loss of blood, Mrs. Beach was
found by her husband, who carried her
into the house and alarmed the neigh
bors. s.. e. Holley, rural police
man. was the first to reach the house
after the attack, and he summoned
DR.. Marion Wyman, who closed the
wound in Mrs. Beach's throat with 10
stitches and applied restoratives.
The daily star-mirror. (Moscow, Idaho) 1911-1939, 1913-01-28

On the following day the earrings
of Mrs. Beach were found not very
far from the scene of the attack. 1t
is said that in the courtyard of the
Beach home a blood-stained pocket
knife, gold-plated and studded with
diamonds, was found, which was iden-
titled as knife which Mayor Gyles
of Aiken had presented to Mr.. Beach
a short time previous to the attack.
The case caused tremendous SEN
sation in this city, and the city coun-
Gil offered a reward of $500 for the
apprehension and conviction of the
murderous assailant. Later two prom
inent members of the winter colony,
C. Oliver Iselin and Clarence w. Do
Ian, each added $500 more to the re-
ward offered. The authorities engaged
w. S. Baughn, detective, to investi-
gate the case, and upon the strength
of his report the grand jury on June 4
of last year found an indictment
against Mr.. Beach, charging him with

AIKEN, 8. c., Jan. 28-Society peo
pie here and elsewhere are looking
forward with undisguised interest tc
the trial of Frederick o. Beach, mil
lionaire New York clubman and soci-
ETY. whip charged with having at
tempted to kill his wife, Mrs. Camilla
Havemeyer Beach, by slashing her
throat last February. while the
Beaches were occupying their winter
home in this city. The case is one OF
the first cases to be tried at the Feb
ruary term of the court of general
sessions, which will convene here next
week. The accused and his beautiful
wife have been, and are still, promi-
nent in society circles OF New York
and other large eastern, centers, and
we're among the leaders of the colony
of northern society people who have
their winter homes in and around
Aiken. Under the circumstances it
is quite natural that the case should
attract unusual attention among the
numerous friends and social acQuaint-
ances of the Beaches in the Aiken win
ter colony. But aside from the social
prominence OF the accused and OF his
alleged victim, the case presents many
sensational features which are likely
to make 1t cause celebre."
Mrs. Beach was formerly Miss Ca
milla Woodward Moss, daughter OF
Courtlandt D.. Moss. Her first hus-
band was Charles d. Hayemeyer He
was found by her on May 10, 1898, In
a room of his country home at Ros-
lyn. dead with bullet wound in his
head. A coroner's jury returned
verdict of accidental death. On No
vember IS, 1899, Mrs. Havemeyer mar
ried Frederick O.; Beach, and the mar
rage was one of the notable social
events OF that season. William X.
Vanderbilt acted as best man. The
Beaches were prominent in social cir
cles in New York, Palm Beach and
at Aiken, where, like many other
wealthy New Workers, they were In
the habit of spending the winter
months.
The Beaches took a leading part In
the gay social life of the winter col
ony and there seemed to be not the
slightest suspicion of any quarrel or
disagreement between Beach and his
charming and yixaeions wife. As may
BE- imagined, 1t caused a deep and
widely spread sensation when on the
morning of February 81 OF last year
it became known that during the pre-
yious night Mrs. Beach had been lured
into the courtyard OF her house and
there attacked by some unidentified
man, who knocked her senseless with
. fence paifng ard then slashed her
throat with knife, with the presum-
able intention Of killing her. Accord

After Mrs. Beach's recovery the
Beaches left Aiken together about the
middle of last March for a trip abroad
as the guests of William X. Vanderbilt
Mr.. and Mrs. Beach were in London
when they received the news that a
