WASHINGTON, Oct. 13.-Irish
Creek Hollow has been tanned. Two
county school teachers and a H.
trict where 81 teachers had essS in
turn refused to teach in the noun
tains of Virginia. and organized a
summer school and an evening
school that were both better at
tended than any school 81 past
years has ever been. This is the
story that comes to the u. s. Blu
reau of Education in Washington.
In 1911. after all attempts to get a
regular teacher had failed. the
county superintendent persuaded
two experienced teachers to go to
Irish Creek Hollow, which is a
sparsely settled mountain valley in
Rockbridge county, inhabited by
noun taineers of original stock who
have intermarried as much as the
law permits. These teachers car
ried with them tents to live in, pro-
visions, and cooking utensils. School
was opened in the old school build
ing and the attendance exceeded all
expectations. There were so chill
dren and 20 to 40 adults. In 1912,
the work had grown to a point
where the Virginia Cooperative
Education association was able to
organize a school and civic league
and an athletic association. A Sat
urday afternoon class in reading
and writing for grown-ups number
ed among it's members old men and
women with grandchildren in the
morning school.

CHOOSES A
LIVING DEATH
Soul-Gripping Drama at the
Princess This Week of Unusual
Character.

To keep her vows made to the
church, Sister Giovanni in the
white Sister," playing this week
at the Princess Theater, prefers
life in an isolated leper colony to
that of perfect happiness with
her soldier lover.
The unexpected happens in the
sWhite Sister" when the soldier
lover of Sister Giovanni returns
unannounced after his supposed
death. Having already taken the
VOWS of church, the sister re-
fuses to return to the world, and
the tragic scene between the two
lovers holds the audience in rapt
attention.
The scenes that follow are
ones that live long in the minds
of those who are fortunate
enough to witness the perform
ance, and few plays Of such char
acter have drawn as large houses
as this intensely interesting
drama.
The white Sister" is an ex-
ceedingly high-priced play and
one that is extremely hard to get,
but Manager Richards OF the
Princ,sss theater knowing that
nothing was too good for his
patrons determined at all cost to
present this play In Tacoma--not.
however, at the Theatrical Trust
prices OF s1.50 and $500 up. but
the Princess regular low prices
of zoe, 30c and Soc, SO you can
come prepared to see one OF the
most expensive shows ever pro-
duced IN New York for the same
price that you have been accus-
toned to pay when visiting the
Princess Theatcr.
