The reason so many OF what we
term the lower animals are able to
leap from high places to the ground
or another high place with sucn
eclat, while ordinary mankind at
tempting the feat could only end it
with clatter, is that the animals in
, question know how to alight. Many
persons who marveled at the discov-
cry OF the aeroplane did not get the
real angle on the thing. What the
Wright brothers discovered was not
so much how tc 60 up into the air
as II was how to come down out of it
when and how and where they pleased
without creating undue activity in
the undertaking business. It is all
In the manner Of alighting. The mere
matter of staying in the air was a
demonstration of their ability not
TO come down until they wanted to.
II is the lack of knowledge about
lighting that makes people nervous
when they are asked to walk across
a narrow bridge spanning a deep
chasm-they are continually think
Ing of how disheveled their personal
appearance would be if their feet
should slip. Yet the same person
will walk a curbing or a six-inch
plank over mud puddle with per
feet nonchalance. 1t is the knowl-
edge of the void between the start
Ing and finishing point that creates
the fear-coupled with the keener
knowledge that while he knows very
well how to fall he has no accurate
Information as to how to stop fall
Ing with comfort and convenience.
1t is for this reason that those
superhumans who carry the arts to
uncxplored depths of average un-
derstanding-and reach their goals
are required by the eNigencIes Of
their professions to be the most ac-
, complished experts in the matter of
slighting amidst all sorts of sur
roundings. The surroundings make
no difference to them. That is why
the most of Washington can con-
template in admiration-not to say
joyfully-the graceful figure of 1Zetta
Jewel as she leaps through the air
from Juliets famous balcony to a
position somewhere in the vicinity
OF the trained seals and knockabout
comedians of vaudeville. The atti-
tude of admiration is the only one
the people of this city have ever
found il possible to adopt toward
Miss Jewel. They have no fear for
the safety of her art, because they
feel perfectly convinced that next

HIGH SCHOOL NOTES
(By Courtney Horton)

by courtney f1OrtOn)
At a meeting of the City anC
County school committees, the
inter- school debate was arranged
to take place in the City schoo
chapel some time during the gre
week of April. The City schoo
is to select the subject and the
County school to get choice o.
the sides. An admission of ter
cents will be charged and the
winner will get the benefit of the
proceeds.
The City school has submitted
the following question: Resolved
That the President of the United
States should be elected for a
term of six years and be ineligi-
be for reelection.
Miss Alice Classify, one of our
schools most popular instructors
spent the week end in Lexington.
The County teachers in charge
of Mr.. M. F..Orear were visitors
at our school last Tuesday morn
ing.
After many days of anxious
waiting fourteen High School
pupils in charge of their honored
Professor, w. c. Jetton, boarded
the 7:I2 train Friday morning
and went to Frankfort to spend
the day. Most of the day was
spent in going through the peni-
tertiary, the old and new CAPT
tails and seeing the lawmakers
(if such it may be called in sess-
ion. One thing remarkable about
the trip through the penitentiary
was that the entire crowd sue
ceeded in getting out all right
After being inside the grounds
for about an hour one member
of the crowd became fatigued and
inquired for the electric chair
saying they wished to get some
relief. The guard informed them
that the chair was at Eddyville,
but that if they would go there
he was of the opinion that it
would relieve them. In the after
noon the crowd proceeded to the
new capital where they saw Ken
tucky's so-called legislature in
session. Anyone should consider
himself fortunate in seeing this
body of lawmakers together, as
it is only about once in a century
that such a bunch is gotten to-
gether. While one member of
the Senate was reading a bill,
others were smoking, reading
newspapers and making all the
noise possible and to top off the
situation the acting President
left the chair to talk to some one.
Parliamentary laws were no
more in use than feather beds IN
Hades. 1t looked as though the
only available means of keeping
order would be to station strong
men in every part of the house
and provide them with maules
with power to act or to recall
some of the troops from the Mex
lean border, anyhow during the
course of the day the students
had the opportunity of compar-
ing Lawmakers" with LAW
breakers and they returned home
firmly convinced that if there is
any difference the "Lawbreakers"
have the edge.
Enroute home from Frankfort
Prof. Jetton and Kelly stopped
off in Lexington on business"
We are not going to inquire as
to what kind of business it was
but it is currently reported that
both were attracted by members
Of the fair sex.
