LAWRENCE COUNTY
IN GOLD STAR CLASS
Sunday School Association Just Con-
cluded at COurtland Most Re-
markable Ever Held

Courtland, July 10.-(Special 1.-THE Lau-
renee County Sunday school convention,
which has just closed at Courtland, proved
the most remarkable convention in the
history of the association. Reports
showed that during the past 12 months Is
district Sunday school conventions had
been held in the county; that 2S new Sum
day schools were rsI orted, and that of the
60 Sunday schols in the county every
school had been reached by the county
association, every school had been repre-
sented in a district convention, every
school had made a written statistical re-
port, and every school had contributed to
the county work.
On the basis of this report General Sec
retary Palmer of the Alabama Sunday
School association announced that the
county had attained the rank of "GoId
Star Country" making the thirty fourth
county in Alabama to attain this rank.
Written statistical reports from the Sun
day schools and from the county depart
ment superintendents showed progress in
every line of work There has been an in
creas of over 1000 in the Sunday school
enrolment Of the county. more evergreen
schools than ever before in its history.
Seven Sunday schools report regular work
ers' meetings that did not have them a
year ago. the number of graded Sunday
schools doubled, enrolling SO students,
cradle roll membership multiplied tenfoll
and home department enrolment nearly
20 times as much as last year.
The county and district officers reported
a total of 773 miles travelled, II addresses
made, and an aggregate attendance of
1900 at district conventions.
Officers we're elected as follows: Presi-
dent. c. G. smith; secretary-treasurer, ..
P. Eggleston; elementary superintendent,
Miss Lassie Roberts, secondary superin
tendent, Miss Bette Irwin; adult superln-
tent, Ernest Kumpe; home department SUI

be the first to have a completed building
and will be the first, probably, to hoist its
national flag from a completed building.
The Bolivian government appropriated
$4,000 for the building alone, and other
as well as sufficient funds will be secured
so that the Bolivian exposition will be as
complete as possible.
When the change of administration at
Washington consequent upon the election
of Woodrow Wilson as President was
known to Bolivia, 1t was understood that
this change involved the retirement of
Col. Horace G. Knowles, who for years
has been American minister at Bolivia.
The Brazilian government thereupon be-
gan negotiations with Colonel Knowles
with intent to persuade him to accept Of
fetal appointment to represent Bolivia in
the preliminary arrangements at San
Francisco. Colonel Knowles has now COM
pleted the work which this appointment
entailed upon him, but he will continue for
some time as official commissioner of the
Brazilian government at San Francisco.
At the time of Colonel Knowles visit
to the United States upon vacation two
years ago he stated to friends in this city
city that he was confident Bolivia would
make wonderful exhibition at the pro-
posed Panama exposition. He said the
enthusiasm and energy of the people were
compelling them to form many organiza-
tons. to hold many meetings, and to begin
the assembling of mineral products as
we'll as other products so that Bolivia's
exhibition would be regarded S relatively,
at least, unsurpassed by that of any other
country.
The influence and example of the United
Sta tes have been a great inspiration to the
people of Bolivia and Colonel Knowles is
is persuaded that in time Bolivia will
maintain a very large commerce with the
United States. AT San Francisco, Colonel
Knowles spoke of Bolivia as the Trans
vaal of the southern continent. He un-
doubtedly meant by that that the natural
resources in precious metals which Bo-
livia now possesses will when scientific
mining is adopted cause her to be ranked
with the Transvaal itself His long ex-
perience in Bolivia taught him that the
mines of that country contain practically
exhaustless stores of gold, silver platl-
num- tin and copper, as well as iron.
Within two or three years navigation
of the upper tributaries of the Amazon
will be supplemented by railroad con-
Meeting these navigable waters with the
navigable waters of upper Bolivia In
that way transportation for the agricu-
tural products of the sofia soil which is
virgin and because of the various ranges
of the climate capable of producing wheat
and other grains of the temperate climate
and in the lowlands tropical products-can
be secured so that presumably a very
large commerce with the United states
can be carried on both by way of the
Amazon and the Atlantic, and by means OF
the trans-Andean railroad by way OF the
Pacific and the Panama canal.

ever from an epidemic of whooping cough

has happened in the past six months

These woefnl predictions will have some

tendency to create a sag in business whicn

Congress to pass the currency bill. imme-
diately on the heels of the tariff. 1t might

really frightened or uneasy about the ulti

The average bushes man does not believe
that the emphatic change in the tariff

Changes Are Not Vital

There have been many changes made in
the bill by the Senate but as predicted
long ago, when the bill passed the House
there has bean no change of very great
importance. Pig iron and ferro manga
nese have been placed upon the free list.
and there have been other changes of even
less importance. Fundamentally, the bill
is about the same as the House measure,
with the exception to its administrative
features. The per cent discrimination in
favor of American ships has been re-
moved: the dnu-damping clause has also
been stricken from the bill Both of these
provisions, Mr. Underwood stands square
ly for. Whether " not the House leader
will insist upon their reinstatement or nos
remains to he seen. 1t is quite certain
that he will not sacrifice the bill on ac-
count of them, bl- it is also reasonably
sure that he viii 10 his best to have them
restored to the bill
The income tax feature has also been
amended by the Serate; the finance COM
mittee made an effort to meet some of the
objections raised to certain provisions of
the income tax clause. The estimate now
made for the receipts under the income
tax as amended oy the Senate are higher
than those made before the bill was
changed in this respect
Just what the republican programme FOR
debate in the Senate is has not yet been
announced. However, without any at
tempt at tlibusterns, it is safe to say
that the bill will not reach a vote in the
Senate before the later part of August
| Conservative estimate places the debate al
| six weeks.
