HAL MULDRoW RETIREs.
Board Will Name Presi-
dent of Murray School.


The Ardmoreite publishes an arti
Gle today from the Capital al-Democrat
of Tishomingo concerning Prof. X. NJ.
McCool of the Murray school of that
city. Prof. McCool it seems is an
applicant for president of the school
to succeed our old friend, Hal Null
drow, who desires to retire from the
place. Prof McCool has the indorse-
ment of Mr.. Muldrow and the in
dorsement Of the home press. His
record seems to be all that is de-
sired to fit him for the place. He
was brought up in farm work, was
educated in that line Of thought and
endeavor and has devoted his time
to teaching agriculture.
The Ardmoreite has always been
very friendly toward the district ag-
ricultural schools. We are friends
of these schools because they are
designed to teach boys and girls
practical ideas. A few good farmers
turned out of these schools are worth
more than many professional men
turned out of Yale or Harvard These
schools ought to be Loyalty supported
by the state government and they
deserve to be H,.,o,,,.,
