there will be but little time for the
consideration of the measure as the
congress will finally adjourn for the
session on next Tuesday at noon.
The Webb antiliquor bill sought to
from one state to territory in another
state where prohibition laws applied,
for the purpose Of re-selling the
same. In other words the moment
that the liquors crossed the state line
they became subject to the laws of
the state into which they we're
brought. The veto Of the bill is
heavy blow to the prohibition forces.

these things to show that the school
men are planning through better
trained corps OF teachers and a revis-
ed course Of study to vitalize the ru-
raj school and thus bring 1t In close
touch with the needs of the rural
home. The efforts now being made
to raise $100,00000 to secure for
Nashville the Knapp School Of Coun.
try Life is another indication OF the
thought that is now being given to
this problem. The moving from the
country to the city to the extent that
thousands. of country churches once
the social and religious center OF
prosperous communities have been
abandoned, hae challenged the most
serious attention of thoughtful men
and women To this no doubt Ia
partly due the high cost of living
| of which we hear. and read so. much
whatever other causes may have
contributed to the exodus from the
country to the city, we feel justified
in saying that much of it is due to
the incomplete ideals held up to the
children in our country schools.
ITO make the cry: Back to the
farm effective is one of our rural
problems. To do this we must rake
| it just as pleasant and desirable tc
live in the country on the farm as in
the city.
| "The country church is interested
in this problem of keeping the strong
men ip the country for when the lant
owner moves to town and lets his
| land out to those who are here thii
year and somewhere else next, there
is no one to give adequate supper
| to the church and it dwindles away
and Is finally abandoned When tn,
church dies in community, and 1T
| religious and social activities are los
to the community, then the communi
ty becomes less desirable place il
| which to live and the tendency is t
depreeiate the land values and henc,
this rs also a land owners problem
whether the land owner is far see
ing enough to recognize it or not.
! From the school mans standpoint
! the school is the one factor through
which the church and the land own
ers, the business men, and industrial
interests are to work for the Develop
| ment Of Country IAfe.
Just what kind of school will re
suit from the present study of the
rural schools no one yet seems to
know just yet One thing is pretty
certain 1t will be more than we have
at present. Supt. j. W. Brister in
his last report give two in the pro

I found time to finish the hearing of
the case against the young man
whom Officer Blackburn had arrested
Wednesday evening for driving his
automobile through the streets Of
Ardmore at recklessly high rate of
speed, Yesterday when the case
was first called the offender had de.
clared his intention of standing tria,
and introduced a witness to show
that he had not driven his autobe-
yond the speed limit This morning
when the case, which had been con
tinued from yesterday, was called,
the city had some six or seven wit
nesses on hands who testified that
the autoist was driving his machine,
all through the evenings hours, at
a speed far exceeding that prescribed
by the ordinance of the city These
witnesses placed the speed at which
the auto was propelled along the
streets at all the way from twenty
five to forty miles per hour. Mayor
Roberts was inclined to believe them.

postmaster for Ardmore has been
confirmed by the United States senate
and as soon as his bond has been
mace and approved his commission
will be sent him and he will assume

Mr.. Byrne is tco well known here to

years, it was said of him that ne
was he best indorsed man whose
name went before the postoffice de
partment at Washington among the
thousands who applied under the Will
son administration. After his en-
dOrscments had been filed and his
nomination was made, it is also ralh-
er singular and TO his great credit as
well as to the credit of the Ardmote
people, that not single objection
was filed against his confirmation.
In these days Of civil rule i l.
safe to say ahtt very few if any
changes will be made in the en-
ployes Of the postoffice.
Within one year from now it is
expected that work on the new fed

and Washington, and Mr.. Byrne will
be the first postmaster to preside in

tendance in the winter and not one
eighth grade graduate.
l doubt very much the increase
levy to pay teachers better salaries
in the rural schools will carry, as the
tax question is the great question of
today'with our people. =
About eighteen or twenty years
ago Tennessee raised her first grade
certificates, requiring twenty-five
subjects to be examined in. The re-
suit was many excellent teachers
quit teaching rather than attend the
states higher Institutions, after they
had taught a number of years. for
instance Crockett county was cut
down to about five or a few teachers
holding first grade certificates, the
result being that the state superin-
tendent of schools allowed county
superintendent to issue permits to
certain applicants to teach, which
virtually made void the law that
backed the certificate; so | am in
formed by a teacher who was on the
spot at the time.
The higher state schools were the
instigators of these requirements as
to certificates.
Now, Mr.. Editor, do not consider
myself a back number nor a kid in
teaching in rural schools, having
taught about twenty terms in Ken
lucky, Texas and Oklahoma, and hope |
to be teaching in 1916 and see the
effect of the new school code; then
if it proves good for everybody con-
cerned, l will doff my hat to Sena-
tor Fred Tucker and say | am with
you, my good friend. Yours truly,

Room for COURAGE.

There is no duty so small, no trial
80 slight, that 1t does not afford room
for courage. 1t has a meaning and
value for every phase Of existence;
for the workshop and for the battle
field, for the thronged city and for
the lonely desert, for the sick room
and for the market place, for the study
and for the counting house, for the
church and for the drawing room
. For courage is just strength
of heart, and the strong heart makes
itself felt everywhere, and lifts up
the whole of life, and ennobles it.
and makes it move directly to its
chosen aim,-Ilenry van Dyke.

fact that many springs show an in.

before a coming rain begins to fall.

that the weather before a storm is
often Of the kind which checks loss
of moisture from the ground by

A Word to
The Storekeeper'

The manufacturer who tries
to help you sell his goods
after he has induced you to
stock up on his line deserves
your hearty cooperation.
But it is up to you to de-
eide whether the manufac-
turer is actually helping yOu
or whether he only thinks
ne is.
If he is creating a desire
for his product without Gre
ating an actual demand on
your store for it, his help is
of little advantage to you.
The one big advantage Of
newspaper advertising is that
it creates not only desire, but
actual demand. Most other
mediums stop at desire.
The best kind of advertis-
ing that a manufacturer can
Go for your benefit is local
newspaper advertising. Tell

perience the value of news

for them.
