Please tell what "Arabinism" means. I

William Arabin was conspicuous rather thar
distinguished lawyer in England during the
past century. He Judge in the Old Bailey
up 10 sac, and was famous for sayings which
rlyaled the pithy wisdom OF Alices duchess
One of his beat pronouncements was: IF ever
there was case of clearer evidence than this
case, this case Is that case" and the sort OF
thing he used TO get off" hae grown to be
called ARA binism."

Editor Ownbey is not endeavorinE 10 qualify
for place on the state Board OF Educat Ion but
nc has made a study OF the teachers employed
In the schools In and around Grundy. The
result OF his research and observat ton inspires
the following In the Sandy Valley News: The
requirements OF the country teacher are not
many She must be II primary. intermediate,
grammar grade. high school teacher combined.
she must be able to build fires adjust fallen
stove pipes. put in window panes sweep, dust
split kindline, drive a horse. keep out the neigh
boring quarrels. know how and where to whip

money for libraries. keep all kinds of records

character, and pass examination in the
branches Of modern education" But. then,
Brother ownbey must remember she has moth

The Lynchburg News believes ltaIy's neutral
ity to be in the nature of moral support
for the allies in their contention that Germany
is the agsrcssor In the European war. The
mere moral effect of this condition Is highly
damaging to Germanys cause-afordng as II

things not necessary will happen, nevertheless.
