A New LAWYER.

Mr.. John M. Quinn one of the gifted
young sons of the good county of Laur-
el, came down Monday and on Tuesday
was examined by a committee of local
attorneys for law license. The young
gentleman passed very creditable ex-
animation and was admitted to the bar,
and as he is a young man of splendid
literary attainments, deeply learned in
the law, and a natural born orator, we
predict for him unlimited success in his
chosen profession. Mr. Quinn's home is
at Livingston.

June Term OF The Garard Circuit Court
Began Monday With An Unusually
Light Docket.

The June term, which is like the
others three weeks term, of the Gar
rard Circuit Court began here on last
Monday; Judge Charles A. Hardin was
on Eand early to preside, as was Judge
E. V. Puryear, who with County At
torney j. E. Robinson will look after
the interest of the Commonwealth; !;
Circuit Clerk ". B. Mason with Miss
Sue Shelby Mason as his deputy pre-
sided at the books, while Sheriff
George Ballard was present with
Messrs c. A. Robinson, Tommie Bal
lard and Davis Sutton to assist him.
The docket was an unusually light
one, and Judge Hardin hopes to do
some good work toward the complete
clearing of it this court. There are IS
old equity cases. 25 old common law
cases, 16 comm IN law appearance
cases and 20 equity appearances.
The criminal docket speaks exceed
inglY well for the moral condition of
the county. and is unusually light and
will be pretty well disposed of at this
term of court
Judge Hardin gave to the grand jury
his usual forceful instruction, dwelling
at length upon violations of the cleo
tion laws and the fish and game laws,
and touching upon every law which he
thought might be violated in the coun-
ty, instructing them to diligently
search into such infractions and if the
evidence coming before them justified
it, to return a true bill in each and
every case without fear or favor.
The grand jury is as follows:-

It has been a long time since women
in a theatrical audience have enjoyed
such a sensation as that made by Miss
Shannon, as Mrs. Farrell Howard, a
widow from Brookliner when she ap-

nous "Modesty Cloak" The lines of

of womankind, but, alas, so frequently
abused, not only on the stage, but in
real life. Mrs. Farrell Howard. being,
however, the elegant woman Of the
world, would not dream Of appearing
in such a garment without a more dis
Greet covering. Hence the "Modesty
Cloak" a fllmy robe of blue chiffon
trimmed with Bohemian lace and edg-
ed with a band Of sable. A garment

II you ask any woman who is now the

will answer quick as a flash, "Effie

will add OF her own accord land the

The fact that both Miss Shannon and
Miss Putnam are appearing in the
same production, Years of Discretion"
is significant 1t means that we are
once more given a demonstration of
the genius Of David Belasco, who is not
content to furnish US with the clever
est the wittiest and most brilliantly
acted play Of a decade, but also the
best dressed"
One feature characterizing all the
costumes worn by Miss Shannon and
Miss Putnam in this comedy is that
they have been designed specially for
women Of middle age-that is to Say,
scr women ranging between thirty and
afty years. In Years Of Discretion"
Miss Shannon plays the role of a wom-
an who confesses to forty-eight, and
Miss Putnam to forty-seven. Both are
elegant women Of the world, both rep
resent women Of great wealth, of fault
less taste. To convey this impression
across the footlights and make it sink
into the Consciousness of the audience,
David Belasco well knew that some
thing more than fine acting was neces-
sary. Fine acting, he declared, was
necessary in order to symbolic the
spiritual significance Of the grande
dame, but in this particular instance
all the fine acting in the world would
be thrown away If the grande danes

eternal fitness Of things. 1t was here

as to display fascinating petticoat Of

An Extract From the School Law
 Sec. 75S7. Shall furnish pupils certificate. When a pupil has completed the course of study prescribed in Section 7532 and passed satisfactory examination the teacher and directors shall certify the same to the county examiner, and thereupon he shall furnish to said pupil a certificate to be sup piled by the state superintendent, and in the nature of diploma, the same to be signed by the state superintendent, and coun- tersigned by the county examiner and the teacher of said pupil. "
 The principals of Special Districts" may have the certi- ficates mentioned above by writ ing to the county superintendent. It will be left to them to present the certificate in any way that they choose.
 The day on which these certi- ficates are presented to the pupils of the rural schools will be called Promotion Day." On this day all pupils of the rural schools who have completed the course of study will be asked to assemble at some central point to receive their diplomas. A suitable program will be arrang- ed for the occasion. The time and place of the meeting as well as the program will be announced soon.
 Monroe County had 1889 white pupils enrolled in her public schools according to the enumeration report for the year ending June 30th, 1912. find from careful canvass of the county that there are now only 88 pupils doing seventh grade work the last grade of the grammer school.

prescribed course of study. There are various reasons why they are not doing so. 1 shall discuss these reasons, as I see them, at some future time. At present I wish to notice some of the possible results of promotion day.
 Promotion day is designed to create and hold the interest of the pupils by giving them some- thing definite toward which and for which to work.
 Again, it is hoped that the occasion will bring together people from the different com- munities in the county and thus be the result of awakening a more active interest in educa- LlOnal aIIalfS.
 Too frequently pupils in the rural schools are permitted to attempt high school work before they finish the grammar school work. The result is discourag- ing to both teacher and pupil. Promotion day seeks to remedy this by fixing a uniform requir- ment for all pupils seeking pro- motion.
 At the proper time, uniform examination questions will be sent to each teacher in the county who has seventh grade pupils seeking promotion. Each teach CT will grade the papers of her pupils and then toward the same to the county superintendent. Owing to a lack of uniformity in the length of school terms in the different districts, some schools may close before the date set for the examination. In that case, if am notified, I shall make arrangements for such pupils to take the exami- nation in some school near by.

A Prediction

Speaking of the popular election
of United States Senators which has
recently been approved by the nee
essary number of state legislatures
to put the constitutional change in
to effect, the Enosburg Standard
says
The fears expressed by those who
have opposed the change will, we
believe, prove unfounded. The ben
efits to be anticipated are three-fold.
The scandals that have marked all
too many of the senatorial contests
in state legislatures will become a
thing of the past. 1t should result
in the selection of a higher class of
statesmen and in making up a Sen
ate more responsive to the wishes of
the people and a clearer apprecia-
ton of their responsibility to their
constituents. And it should oper-
ate toward the elimination of sec
tionalism and the development of
broader and more national consid-
Grafton of the welfare of the coun-
try as a whole.
Finally it would seem, that with
the removal of the election of United
States senators from the duties of
state legislatures, those bodies, re-
lieved of these distracting and many
times greatly prolonged contests,
should be more free from politics
and better able to perform their le-
ultimate legislative duties with
promptness and efficiency.
We certainly hope all these things
will prove true but we predict that
ten years from now the country will
be no freer from senatorial election
scandals than it is today, that the
United States senate will not be
composed of a higher class of
statesmen" and that sectionalism |
will be stronger and the welfare of
the country as a whole will not be |
so carefully considered as it is I'M
der the present system of choosing |
our senators. 1t is because we have |
believed this that we have opposed |
the change. But notwithstanding |
this pessimistic prediction popular /
election of senators has come and /
we shall do whatever we can to
make it a success and to contra
dict our prediction.
