KNAPP HALL AND ITS TEACHERS

II might be easily claimed that
the most important building in
Kentucky is Knapp Hall in Berea.
This most beautiful building was
dedicated less than year ago and
educators came from many states
To participate in the ceremony.
The idea OF Knapp Hall is to train
teachers to teach by having them do
teaching under proper supervision.
In this building, hundreds Of young
people have already seen superior
teaching and learned how to do it
themselves.
The general work, Of course, Is
under the supervision of Dean
McAllister. The special manager OF
the training work is Miss Bowersox
and we present this week the pic
lures Of two other of the training
teachers, Miss Parker and Miss
Boatright.
The work OF Knapp Hall means a
great deal to the children of all our
mountain region.

outlining the events leading up to
the declaration of war by Germany
and saying that "Russians will rise

lows:

Russians, king of Poland and grand
duke of Finland, to our faithful sub
jects make known that Russia, re-
lated by faith and blood to the Slav
people. has never regarded their fate
with Indifference.
But the fraternal sentiments of the
Russian people for the Slavs have been
awakened with perfect unanimity
and extraordinary force in these last
few days when Austria Hungary
knowingly addressed to Servia claims
unacceptable for an independent state.
Having paid no attention to pacific
and cOnciliatory reply of the Servian
government and having rejected the
benevolent intervention of Russia.
Austria Hungary made haste to pro-
coed to an armed attack and began
to lombard Belgrade, an open place.

caution we order the army and the
navy put on war footing, at the same
time using every endeavor to obtain
peaceful solution. Our parleys were
begun amid friendly relations with
Germany and her ally, Austria, for

ANTITRUST LEGISLATION.

CAUSE OF War.


Washington, Aug. 3.-President
Wilson tonight tatly turned down a
request Of Senate Republican leaders
that in view of the danger to business
in the United States growing out Of
the European war the pending trust
legislation programme be postponed
until the next session of congress.
Senators Gallinger, Smoot and Bran
dege discussed the situation with
Mr. Wilson and told him that in their
opinion the antitrust bills would lead
to further business troubles.
President Wilson advised his callers
that in his opinion business would be
hurt more If left uncertain as to what
the antitrust bills were to be. He de-
clared he was determined that final
action on the bills should be taken
during the present session, and asked
the senator's whether the Republicans
would conduct a Glibustcr against
them. He was told that nothing Of
this kind was to be expected.
