AMERICAN OFFICERS
BRAVE, SAYS KELLY
President Wilson and Secre-
tary Bryan Praised for
Stand on Doctrine.

The criticism of the attitude of
President Wilson and Secretary Bry-
an by newspapers ana diplomats of
Europe is caused, according to Presi-
dent Kelly, of Earlham college, by a
failure to realize the bravery and
"Reminiscences of these executives,
judging them instead on the lower
scale of European diplomacy.
I'VE can not imagine" said Presi-
dent Kelly, how William Jennings
Bryan could pose On scale with the
European diplomats. He is too frank,
too honest and too magnanimous. Eu-
ropeans who have become accustom-
ed to the tricks and artiEces of their
diplomats, fail to realize the bravery
and worth of these American men in
taking such a decided stand on the
question of recognizing Mexico
With all Europe and South America
against the United States because of
her selfish adhesion to the Monroe
doctrine, President Kelly believes it
would be a mark of both policy and
magnanimfty for the United States
to recognize the advance Of Chill, Bra
zil and Argentina in the western hemi-
sphere, and to grant them the privi-
lege of sharing the duty of supervision
in their continent.

WILLIAMS TO URGE
DIVISION OF WORK
County Superintendent Be-
lieves County Agents
Field Too Big.
TALKS TO TEACHERS
Says Cobb Must Visit 5000
Farmers Besides
Schools. /
TALKS TO TEACHERS

Recommendation that the work of
the county agent be entirely separated
from the public schools of the state
and be confined exclusively to assist
ing the farmers themselves Will be
made by County Superintendent VIII
liams at the state teachers institute
to be held in Indianapolis, Dec. 21-24.
Mr. Williams is on the program for
Monday afternoon when he will read
paper on The Relation of the COun-
ty Agent to the School"
In the paper he has prepared he
urges that the county agent be per-
mitted to give all his time to the farm
ers and that provision be made for an
assistant county superintendent who
shall supervise vocational training In
the public schools.
At the present, Agent Cobb cannot
give over a third of his time to school
work. Many of the teachers Of the
county know little about agricultural
subjects. Mr.. Williams believes it
will be absolutely necessary to have
an expert for this work alone.
Law Is Valuable.
In the paper he will read, Mr.. Will
is good one, but that it will not help
the farmers of the present day. 1t
can only help the future citizens it
reaches through the schools. The
county agent is supposed to be an Of
ficer created for the special benefit
of the farmers.
There are forty district schools in
the county and ten centralized
schools. The county agent is sup
posed to visit each of the county's
5000 farmers once year. This would
mean that he would have to call on
16 each day of the year in order to
make the rounds. How then will he
find time to cover these SO schools
and supervise their work?
THE county agent is not a peda-
gogue," said Superintendent Williams.
He has not had training in the pro-
fession of teaching and besides his
work lays elsewhere"
Fifty Will Attend.
Wayne county will be represented
by more than fifty teachers at the
state institute. Cambridge City will
send its entire delegation of thirteen
teachers. Only about thirty went
from Wayne county to the institute
last year.

Evangelistic work done by Rev. Ed
gar l.. Williams and his singer, Frank
0. Huston, throughout the county, has
been far more successful than the COM
mittee in charge expected and in many
cases, churches were too small to hold
the audiences. A very successful meet
ing was held in Economy last night.
The Rev. Mr. Williams, who Is a
member Of the State Evangelistic Fed
Grafton, returned to his home today
but will be in the county again next
week. He expects to hold meetings in
Fountain City, Williamsburg, Green's
fork and Milton.
College students who are affiliated
with the evangelistic federation of In
diana may assist in holding services.
Meetings starting December 26 and
continuing for a week, will be held in
Hagerstown by college students.
Meetings were held last week in
Dublin, Hagerstown and Cambridge
city.
The Honeywell revivals to start in
Richmond Sunday, December %, are
being advertised and it is expected
that much interest will be created in
the Richmond meetings through the
county revivals.

That the North Thirteenth street
family, whose destitute circumstances
was called to the attention of char
table workers few days ago, is
cursed not only with poverty and tu-
berculosis, but a shiftless, good-for-

was the charge preferred today by
four neighbors in a signed statement
to the Palladium.
This statement sets forth the fact
that the unfortunate mother of the
family and her six daughters are de-
serving Of the greatest consideration
by the charitably inclined, but adds
that the eighth member of the fam
lily, it's head, deserves nothing but the
severest condemnation. He is de-
scribed as man whose greatest am
billion in life is to do as little work as
possible.
The father of this family" the
statement reads, deserted them in
the spring of 1913 without a mouthful
