PROBATION PLAN
FOR JUVENILES
Mayor Batson Prefers to Give First
Time often ders an Opportunity.

Probation is Judge Batson's plan for
juvenile delinquents in the city court.
Justice tempered not only with mercy
but with good judgment is the Batson
method of handling the boy problem
when a concrete example is presented
in his court He does not believe that
a boy should be thrown in with harden.
ed criminals to be schooled in crime.
He prefers to give the first time Of
fender, especially when it is boy, an
opportunity. His worst penalty is q
period Of probation, and that is design
ed not as punishment but as means
of saving the boy to become good
citizen. -.
Two boys, Colbert and Travis Wick,
ers, newsboys, were in court this morn
ing on the charge of assault and bat
terry OH another newsboy. The moth
er of the boys appeared as their attor-
ney. She told the Judge that she has
been trying to keep them off the
streets. She told the Judge that she
was not able to buy books for the
boys so that they can go to school and
that she was unable to pay fine.
Tih older boy was discharged be
cause, according to the testimony, he
was trying to act as a peace-maker
The younger boy Travis was given a

Bruges, only fifteen miles east of the
coveted seaport.
Thousands of Belgian refugees in
Ostend are on the verge of a panic,

homes in their flight
A French official report says that
on the left wing the Germans have
evacuated the left bank of the river
Lys and that in the region of Lens,
between Arras and Albert, the allies
progress has been marked. One Paris

tween $4,000 and $4,000 men in the
fighting around Arras. The Germans
were caught in a swamp and swal-
lowed, the paper says.

and their enemies the French official
report says fighting continues along
the Vistula' and San rivers as far as

easterly direction as far as the river
Dneister.

63RD CONGRESS
LONGEST IN THE
NATIONS HISTORY
rlNuArIoN OF PRESIDENTS
SPECIAL. SESSION.
FIRST DEMOCRATIC CONGRESS
SINCE MARCH 41H, 1897
In Session Since April, 1913-Enacted
New Currency Law, Antitrust Legis-
lation and Provided For Alaskan
Railroad-Had to Deal With Two
Foreign Wars.

Washington, Oct. 15.-The firstTegu-
lar session of the Sixty-third Congress
which began December /, 1913, is about
rupted continuation of the special ses,
sion called by President Wilson, a
month after his inauguration, it is the
longest sitting of Congress in the his
tory Of the nation.
The work, including that of the spe-
cfal session for tariff reform and in
come tax provisions, represents the
legislative achievement of the first
Democratic Congress since March 4,
1897 The chief enactments include
the new currency law, antitrust legis-
lation, repeal of the toll exemption
provision for American coastwise ships
in the Panama canal, and the provision
to build a government railroad in
Alaska.
The congress was remarkable for
the fact that in less than two years il
had to deal with conditions arising
from two foreign wars-the revolution
in Mexico and the European conflict
and was on the verge of facing war
between the United States and Mexico
Both of these situations demanded
emergency legislation, some of which
may have far reaching effect upon the
future course of the nation in its for.
eign Affairs.
AS rule the utmost cooperation be-
tween Democratic leaders in Congress
and President Wilson marked the ses-
sion although one notable break oc-
Cured in the party over repeal Of the
tolls provision of the Panama canal
act. This led to an alignment which
placed the President and some of the
party leaders on opposite sides
Among those who took issue with the
Chief Executive being Speaker Clark
and Majority Leader Underwood
Speaker Clark's defense of his opposi
ton to repeal furnished one of the
most spectacular climaXes in the his
tory of the House.
The President appeared before join
sessions of the House and Senate o!
five occasions. He delivered his gen
eral legislative message December 2
Subsequent messages were on anti
trust legislation, the Mexican situation
pleading for continuation of "watchfu
waiting" the tolls repeal bill and th'
necessity for war revenue bill.
Most important of the laws enacte'
, by, the Congress since December
r 1913, include:

Gloom OF England Lifted.

London, Oct. 15.-The gloom that
has envelopsd England since the fall
of Antwerp, was somewhat lightened
today by official reports saying that
the allies are more than holding their
own in furious fighting along the
Franco-Belgian frontier.
On the other hand this feeling Of
elation has been tempered by grow
ing realization that the Russian inva.

be imminent, must be postponed In

Glamour That Enhances "Imported".
Remember the Home Market.

A. W.. Shaw, publisher of System, a
business. magazine, sees in the war an
extraordinary opportunity for the ex-
pansion of American trade. He points
out how the trade of this country ex-
panded during the previous wars. His
statement in part follows.
while we all deplore the war and
are reluctant to take profits from the
misfortunes of other peoples, it is time
for us to consider what is to
be the result to American houses of
this great European conflict. Express
sed in terms of business activity, the
situation is this: There are four great
competitors for the worlds business.
Three of them, temporarily, at least,
have shut down. One, the United
States, is open and prepared to work
overtime.
what the result will be seems self.
evident. Just as evident as the result
would be If all your competitors-all
other shoe manufacturers, for instance
should close their factories. A trans
ference to one not alone of the demand
, for shoes formerly supplied by others,
but for even the shoes that must be
supplied to them.
For this is exactly the situation
that will follow in this country If the
European war is prolonged. True, GER

PRINCIPAL EXHIBITS WILL
BE BROUGHT IN TOMORROW
Farmers Bring Products With Them
Can Not Come to City More Than
Once a Week-Atchison, Kansas,
Copies Hattiesburg Idea-Fine Hog
Coming; Maybe-Show Begins Early.

Encouraged by the prospects of fine
autumn weather for the Farm Exhibit,
the farmers have been sending in their
prize products until r. C. Hauenstein,
secretary of the Commercial Club, who
is in charge of the county fair, is be-
ginning to fear that he underestimated
the extent of the show and will not
have room for everything. He says
that if the present quarters are over
flowed he will charter another build
ing to hold the remainder of the show.
Live Stock Pens Ready.
All the preparations for the show are
now about complete. The coops, pens
and stalls for the live stock show have
been constructed about the court house
grounds. The cattle stalls on Eaton
street extend from Forrest avenue al
most to Main street. There are almost
twice as many stalls this year as last,
but considering the enquiries received
1t is doubtful if they will be enough.
The real show will begin tomorrow
morning shortly after daybreak when
the farmers begin to arrive with their
exhibits loaded on wagons. Last year
the line of wagons waiting for a
chance to unload their exhibits extend
ed almost the length Of the block A
larger part OF the exhibits always
come in on the first morning of the
show.
Will Take Speed Contest
A man came in yesterday, who has a
hog which will certainly take a. prize
if he is exhibited The farmer said
he would bring him in if he can catch
him. Probably he thinks there is going
to be a speed contest for swine.
Mr.. Hauenstein is in receipt OF a
letter from Charles A. Brown, Of Atch'
ison. Kansas. where he was formerly
mayor commissioner, stating that Atch'

FARM MORTGAGE
PLAN PROPOSED

Or Coulter spoke before the first
ornual convention of the Farm Mort

Genital he declared that better fl
nancial principles be applied to farm
mortgages. Two leading principles,
be said, must guide such loans. First
the amount and period of the loan
must be adjusted to the purpose for
which the loan is required. Second,
nrovlsion must be made for the ex.
,,nction Of the loan in annual install.

"of the $3.50, 900 farms in the Uni
ted States, about 100000 are oper'
ated by their owners and Of these l.,
$4,000 are mortgaged" DR.. Coulter
said. Under the general practice
these mortgages are made to run
from three to FIVE years. I urge that
the length of the loan should vo-y
with the purpose.
IF the loan is made to equip the
farm with machinery or live stock
n should run from FIVE to ten years
II the purpose is to construct build
ings, the loan might extend over
period of fifteen years. II the pur
pose is to purchase the farm TIT
loan might extend from TWENTY-FIVE
as for thirty-five years.
"As to my proposal that farm loan'
should be paid off in annual install

is almost sure at its maturity to AL

Without pressing home the cues.
ton Of responsibility. it must be ad.
mitted that the Triple Alliance and
the Entente as means of preserv-
Ing peace have alike proved to be
failures, and so it has been declared
that what is needed is a common en-.
tente based On common good will and
common sacrifice and enforceable by
common action. This will be the
more easy Of attainment II such re.
form OF the state of Europe is to be
effected as will finally correct the
blunders Of the settlement made af.
ter Waterloo. That was conceived in
the interest of dynasties rather than
peoples, and II parceled out as much
OF Europe as the negotiators could
bring within their scheme without re-
gard to the wishes of the inhabitants.
Government, 1t was held, was the
business of the Great Powers, with
their hereditary rulers and their cab.
orately organized bureaucracies; PEG.
pies were merely so much material to
be governed. The national sentiment
OF the Hungarians, Italians, C1echs,
Ruthenians, Roumanians, Poles and
Servians were entirely disregarded
and the century that has elapsed
since then has been filled with the
unrest due to settlement so arti-
fetal and unnatural. First came The
turn OF the Italians, then that OF the
Hungarians, followed by the Rouma'
mans, followed by the Roumanians
and the Slav nationalitles. The his
tory Of Central Europe during :he
last hundred years has been largely
the history Of the progress OF Slay
ideas. The present war found its
pretext in the offensive character
which the movement for unredeemet
Servia has assumed. Certainly not
the least important among the caus
es of strife which its conclusion
ought to be the signal for removirf
is the oppression of small national
tiles by powers alien to them alike il
spirit and in sympathy. 1t is no
long ago that a plebiscite was taker
in Venetia to ascertain the wishes o
the population with regard to thu
proposal that the province should b.
severed from Austria and the vot'
was: For severance. $4,000; agains
40. Thus, for the Italian as for tn
Slav, Teuton domination, even whe'
beneficial, is always regarded as Cd
GUS. There may be a cultural infer
iority in these races that refuse I
