Ashland District Educational
Association

At the session of the Ashland District
Educational Association recently held
in Lexington, DIR. 6. Crabbe, of the
Eastern Kentucky Normal. was one of
the chief speakers. The Lexington Her
aid has this to say of his address:
The chief address of the evening was
made by DR.. j. G. Crabbs, of Richmond,
who is one of the leading educators of
the South.
His subje was Teacher Training"
and as president of Eastern Kentucky
State Normal School he was eminently
fitted to treat the theme in the most
comprehensive and practical manner.
DR.. Crabbe's address was scholarly and
eloquent, and his peroration was one Of
the finest productions of the program.
In his closing sentences he gave to the
teachers a bit of original wisdom, cloth
ed in language similar to Scripture:
And now abideth character, facts and
vision, but the greatest of these is Wis
ion," vision of the possibilities of
teacher training and what may be &C
complished by the diligent, conscien-
tious teacher who is ambitious to sue
coed, and the speaker quoted from Prov
cribs 29:3S-"W there is no vision,
the people perish"

A special from Washington says thai
President Wilson has expressed his ap-
prevail of the Fifth National Tuberculo-
sis Day in the week OF Nov. 10Th. This
movement is not for the purpose of rails
ing funds, but simply to bring to the at
tention of all the people of the country
the essential facts concerning the treat
ment and prevention of tuberculosis.
Gov. Jas. B. McCreary, president OF
the Kentucky tuberculosis Commission.
and all of the commissioners, hope that
the day may be widely observed in all of
the churches and schools of the State,
since the observance of the day is COM
mended by leading ministers, educators
and public men everywhere. Kentucky.
with the highest death rate from tuber-
culosis in the country, with 1855 deaths
last year, and with probably $4,000 &C.
tive cases in the State, certainly needs
general education about this essentially
durable and preventable disease.
Clergymen and others may secure lit
erature for the preparation of addresses
or for general distribution from local
anti-tubercalosis societies, or from the
Kentucky Tuberculosis Commission at
Frankfort.

Suffered lWenty-One Years
Finally Found Relief.

Having suffered for twenty-one years
with pain in my side. finally have
found relief in DIR Kilmer's Swamp Root.
Injections of morphine were my only
relief for short periods of time. l be-
came so sick that had to undergo a
surgical operation in New Orleans, which
benefited me for two years. When the
same pain came back one day was so
sick that gave up hopes of living. A
friend advised me to try your Swamp
Root and at once commenced using it..
The first bottle did me so much good
that purchased two more bottles. l am
now on my second bottle and am feeling
like a new woman passed a gravel
stone as large as big red bean and sew
eral small ones. have not had the
least feeling of pain since taking your
Swamp Root and feel it my duty to rec
ommend this great medicine to all suffer-
ing humanity. Gratefully yours,

An Appreciation of DR.. Smith.

AS mark of the high esteem in which
DR.. J. Addison Smith, the brilliant and
learned pastor of the First Presbyterian
church of this city, is held by his church
membership and other friends was made
manifest on Thursday evening last,
when Dr. Smith and family were given
joyous surprise party.
DR.. Smith has just concluded a pas
torate of five years in this city, during
which time his christian virtues. SPLEEN
did endowments. energy and zeal in the
Masters vineyard have brought this
man of God in close touch with the hu-
man side of life. and in consequence he
has wrought much good in our city and
community.
DR.. Smith and family were taken CON-
pletely unawares and were deeply touch
ed by this spontaneous evidence of 10y
atty and interest. Rallying, however,
from the slight embarrassment thus &C.
casioned, they gave glad welcome to
their friends and showed in their hearts
their reciprocal ard genuine apprecia
ton.
Last Sunday the quarterly commu-
ion was celebrated at the First Presby-
ter an church and 50 new members were
received News Banner.
We are always delighted to hear from
DR.. Smith and family and rejoice to
know that his people appreciate him to
the full measure of his deserts.

Kentucky Wars on Illiteracy.

In a proclamation characterized by
DR. P. p. Claxton, U. S. Commissioner
of Education, as ''one of the most inn
portant issued by the Governor of any
State since the beginning OF our Nation
al life, Gov. McCreary, of Kentucks,
announces the appointment of State
Iiliteracy Commission and the beginning
of campaign to eliminate illiteracy
from his State. A thousand volunteer
teachers are already at work in the
moonlight schools" teaching Ken
tucky's zOs. 600 adult illiterates how 10
read and write.
The members of the Illiteracy Com
mission are: Mrs. Cora Wilson Stewart,
through whose efforts as superintend-
ent of schools illiteracy has been entire
ly wiped. out in Rowan county during
the last three years; Miss Ella Lewis,
superintendent of schools for Grayson
county; DR.. j. G. Crabbe, president of
Eastern Kentucky Normal School, and
ID. ID. Cherry, president of the Western
Kentucky State Normal School. The
commission is receiving valuable aid
from the Kentucky Educational Assocl-
alton, the Kentucky Press Association,
the State Federation of Women's Clubs;
the Society of Colonial Danes and other
public-spirited organizations.
OF special importance, in the opinion
of Commissioner Claxton. will be the eff
feet of Kentucky's example on other
States. llliteracy is a National prob
lem, and few States are free from it.
Says DR.. Claxton;
This proclamation will have far
reaching results. 1t marks the begin
nIng of new era in Kentucky and for
all the country, for the idea will be TAX
en- up by other States and the work will
go on till the curse and shame of litter
acy have been lifted from every State in
the Union.
1T will be part of the lasting glory
of the State of Kentucky that it has
taken the lead in this movement. 1t is
the first State to undertake to offer to all
the people, of whatever age, an oppor-
tunity to read and write, and thus break
away from the, prison walls OF sense and
silence within which the illiterate man
and woman must live. Whatever else
Gov. James B. McCreary may do for his
State, this proclamation and his rec
concentration to the Legislature that it
provide for the appointment of this il
literacy commission must always be &C
counted among his wisest and most i'm
porIant acts"
Bureau of Education officials point out
that work such as has been begun in
Kentucky will make much more rapid
progress when the illiteracy bill intro
duced by Congressman Abercrombie, of
Alabama, becomes law. This bill
(H. R. 1870 requires the Bureau of Ed
uoation and the Commissioner of Edu-
cation to devise plans for teaching adult
illiterates and TO cooperate with State
and local authorities in the work when
requested to do so.

SHOW NE SENATOR
 FOR TRUST BILL
Says Clayton Measure Is Not Strong Enough and Would Punish Dl-
 rectors for Price Fixing.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 29.-All day yesterday Senator Reed. of Missouri. denounced the Clayton antitrust bill. declaring that because of the remov- al of the penalties for price dis crimination the bill had degenerated from a roaring lion to a toothless tabby and would be of no use to the people, and less to the Demo- cratic party.
 The Missouri Democrat urged up- on the majority party that it keep it's pledges to the people by the pass age of trust law that would protect the consumers by making the direct ors of the big trusts directly and personally liable for price discrim- ination and providing for prison sen tences for those who violate the laws.
 The debate continues today, many other senators opposing taking the prison sentences from the bill and insist upon personal responsibility for the directors and managers of corporations.
