EDUCATORS MEET
IN LOUISVILLE
CONFERENCE WOULD INTEREST
LAYMEN IN EDUCATION AS
CIVIC RESPONSIBILITY.

Louisville, KY, April IA conven-
ton under the joint auspices Of the
Southern Educational Association and
the Conference for Education in the
South opened in this city today and
will continue through the remainder
of the week. The Importance of the
meeting in its relation to the future
welfare and development of the South
can scarcely be overeltimated.
The conference will not confine it.
self to the discussion of educational
topics. A much broader field will be
covered by the addresses, papers and
discussions that will make up the pro-
gram. The underlying idea is to inter-
est laymen in education as a civic re-
sponsibility. To this end. the confer
ence will undertake to develop and
promote the idea of rural economics
with view of building up a better
and more comfortable home life, es-
pecially among the poorer classes of
the sparsely settled districts in the
South. Farmers cooperative work
and the problems of the rural church
and school will receive particular at
tention. Besides the general sessions
there will be meetings by sections, in
which every phase of the uplife move
ment will be discussed in detail.
The conference has brought togeth-
er not only the leading spirits in every
branch of educational work, but a
large number of business men, bank
ers, professional men, college men,
and, in fact, men OF nearly every walk
in life, who have banded together for
the common object of raising the
standard OF citizenship in the section
in which they have lived.

REVIVAL SERVICE
REV. ANDREWS SAYS INDlFFER.
ENCE OF CHURCH MEMBERS
is GREAT OBSTACLE.

Twenty-Five persons professed faith
in Christ at the close of the revival
service at the Main Street Methodist
church last night. A large number
asked for prayers and several applied
for membership in the three Methodist
churches of the city.
Rev. Andrews had for his subject
Indifference Among Church Mem

many church members constituted one
of the greatest obstacles in the way
of his work of adding new members
to the church.
This morning the evangelist
preached on "The Love of Christ Con.

tended for new members or profes.

marked in it's interest.

To TRY OAKLEY
FOR EMBtzzLING
NOTED ALABAMA CASE COMES
UP IN SPECIAL TERM OF
COURT.

Columbiana, Ala. April IA spe
cial term of the Shelby County circuit
court convened today for the trial OF
James G. Oakley on a charge of EN-.
bezzlement about $3,500 of state funds
This is one of the cases in which lead.
ing politicians of Alabama have be.
come involved and which is attracting
the keenest attention throughout the
state. Oakley was president of the
State Convict Department at the time
that Theo. Lacy left Montgomery
carrying with him about 100000 of
state funds. When Oakley was tried
in Montgomery county recently on an
other indictment, he admitted that he
had used the state funds, but that he
did so in the belief that he was using
his own money. He declared that in
1911 he paid over to Lacy, who was
then chief clerk of the State Convict
Department, $27,5O0 and that he
thought that he was using this money
when he converted state checks. Lacy
recently was tried and convicted on
the charge of embezzlement. After
his conviction he declared that he had
given $27,5O0 to Governor O'Neal.
The latter replied that Lacy's state
ment was wholly without foundation
and intimated that it had been insti.
gated by B. B. Conner to further his
aspirations for the governorship.

it best to await developments before
attempting any operation.
Possibly permanent paralysis is not

well used to the job of being car.
Fortified in his inner Office, behind
many gurdian doors and ante-rooms,
for years he has ruled the affairs of
his firm with an iron hand. And
throughout those years he has main
tanned unbroken an imposing silence.
A European monarch is more easily
interviewed than Jacob H. Schiff.
Gar of his own firm, he has now
made that firm almost undisputed car
of the money trust. Kuhn, Loeb &
Company are, next to ]. P. Morgan,
the most powerful banking house in
America. The senior partner of
Kuhn, Loeb & Co. died years ago,
and James Loeb retired to a life of
ease. Since then Schiff has been the
firm.
In many a battle of stocks and
bonds, Schiff led his firm to triumph
over foes famous on the field of high
finance. The victory he loves most
to recount is his forcing of Thomas
F. Ryan, the king of frenzied f1nan7
ciers, to return $7,000,O00 which he
had received for some very watery
stock of the Metropolitan Life.
So powerful has Schiff become,
indeed-so silent and impenetrable

impersonal force governing myster-

rather than a human being working
in ordinary human ways. Yet, on
occasion, he has spoken out straight
to the public, with very personal en-
phfssis. Such was his stern attack,
several years ago, on the currency
system of the United States. And it
was this attack which set going the
banking reform movement and
brought US our much heralded new
currency law. ......-
