Mr.. Rogers was an ideal rail road

that one was loath To part with his

citing feature Of the evening was a
football game. The contestants In
the game were picked sides Of the

a blown egg, which was propelled by

these stalwart football heroes. OF

Agriculture Class at Murray
Nursery.

Last week our teacher of Agricul-
ture. Miss Curry, took MS on, TO visit
the Murray Nursery. Mr.. George
Murray, the owner, was there to vel.
come us. Mr.. Murray lives In 4 beau.
tiful new home. The basement Is
specially planned for nursery work.
His large furnace has coils Of water
pipes 50 that he may have q supply Of
hot water. lie has large work room,
and two large storage rooms.
MIR. Murray took us into the larger
basement room and seated us, then
began a practical demonstration of
grating scions onto Seeding stocks.
The history of the process is some.
thing like this: seed planted In rows,
one summers growth, plowed up with
a pillow made for that purpose, stored
In the cellar from autumn until this
time OF the year: scions cut from large
trees OF known varieties, then the two
are grated. Each student was given
knife, u root stock, and q scion. as
well rs grating wax. Then Mr..
Murray went round correcting each
ones work. Any questions the stud.
ents wished answered, he answered.
Miss Curry, our teacher, asked the
class many questions. We learned
the difference In method Of grating
pears and apples. MIR. Murray knows
the theoretical side rs well as the
practical side, as he was for years
manager Of the Park College farm of
100 acres, and taught 400 boys the
general art of farming"
During the three years at Park
College he built up a home nursery
planted nearly "a hundred acres In
peaches, set out vineyards, and apple
orchards.
II was a great surprise to us TO see
how much faster Mr.. Murray and his
helpers could work than wecould, and
how much more accurate their work
was. Mr. Murray is very conscient ious
in this work, no half-shod work goes.
Come 10 think of it, the place for
Northwest Missouri To buy fruit trees
Is In this home nursery, first, because
the trees are acclimited; second, be-
cause they are honest goods.
We found a sixty acre nursery, a line
Office building, and large packing
shed nearby.
We are both thankful TO Mr.. Murray
for his kindness In giving his time
and money to help us, and to Miss
Curry for her foresight In taking us
to see this nursery. Very few Agri.
cultural classes get to see nurseries.

Society,".

Thursday of last week, Mrs. &. i.
koock had birthday. She was very
quiet about it-never said n word. he.
cause she dislikes surprises. Her
husband forgot 1t too--but that is an.
other story, ask him about that. Fri.
day, with great joy, she told OF how
she had fooled them" But "he
who laughs last, laughs best, at least
SO the neighbors think. About eight,
o'clock a merry crowd assembled at
Mrs. II. A. Evans hcme and proceeded
on tip.toe to the koock residence.
There, just without the door, they
struck up sony and marched in to
its strains. Mrs. koock was for the
moment nothing more nor less ihan
"flabbergasted." In her usual charm.
ing manner she rose to the occasion
and played the gracious hostess the
rest Of the evening. The invading
host had carefully attended TO the
comissary department and nothing
was lacking In that line. Mr.. koock
came home In the midst OF the jollih.
cat ion and was as much surprised as
his wife had been. When called on
for a speech, he replied that he was
no orator, but would favor.them with
a slide trombone solo. This was
greatly enjoyed and an encore called
for, which was gracefully rendered,
soon after the party broke up.

FRANK DENIED NEW TRIAL.
Man Sentenced to Death for Murder
to Take Appeal

Atlanta, Ga, Nov. 3.-Leo. NJ.
Frank, sentenced to hang for the
murder of Mary Phagan, Friday,
was denied a new trial by Judge L.
S. Roam, who presided over the trial
at which Frank was convicted. TINS
decision means that Franks only
hope now 'liek in the Supreme Court,
Il, which an Immediate appeal will be
taken. In announcing the decision
Judge Roam said: . - =
81 have heard ul-the evidence in
this case, and,. taking it I'll together.
/ am. not thoroughly convinced elth@'
as to the guilt or innocence of the
defendant. The jury having passed
upon this case and having been con
WINGED by the evidence of his guilt,
however, | do not feel disposed to
oyerturn its verdict. consider II
my duty to overrule the notion
Counsel for Frank had sought to
obtain Il new trial, alleging that GER
tain members of the jury were pref
udiced against Frank, and that 4 fair
TRIAL was impossible because OF Popu-
lar feeling against the defendant.
More th;n 100 "reasons in behalf
Of Il new triaW were presented. One
was the contention that there was
prejrt:icc against Frank because nc
is Il Jew. The defendant Is president
Of the Atlanta B'nai Birth, having
been reelected to this Office since his
conviction.
81 am prepared for anything
Frank was quoted as saying after he
heard of Judge Roan's decision. AS
