PERSONNEL OF

PASS CHRISTIAN, Miss, Jan. T.
President Wilson worked away on a
mass Of letters and documents today,
putting in his time in considering
the personnel of the federal reserve
board soon to be selected by him.
Notwithstanding the understanding
amonk members OF congress that
they will make no recommendations
to the President for members OF the
board, many other persons have writ
ten the executive. 1t Is not believed
that Mr. Wilson has yet gone beyond
the rafting OF q tentative list, which
he will 70 over with his cabinet ad-
visers in Washington before making
final selections.
The President Is doing more work
each day. He told Representative
Harrison, of this district, who chatted
him at the golf links today, that he
felt better than ever and expected to

Gifted by his vacation here.

cottage after the golf game, schoo

Opinion Called for ia Relieve Any

Act.

NASHVILLE. Jan. MANY in
quiries have been received at this
office regarding a strict construction
Of the Compulsory School Law with

letter to the attorney general of
the state asking his opinion upon Sec

inquiry and his reply thereto:

"The act provides that every pa.

shall cause such child to be enplled
In and attend some school, public,
private or parochial, for eighty con.
secutive days in length, for the full
term in each year in the county OF

It is my opinion that the words

entire period of the child's eight and
fourteen years. To make my mean

Thirteen SURVIVORS ACCOUNT.

kLAHOMA.

NEW YORK, Jan. Thirteen sur
vivors have been accounted for out OF
the thirty-eight men aboard the tank
steamer Oklahoma when she broke
In two Sunday in a storm off Barne-
gat. Another story Of heroic rescue
was written beside the tale told by
wireless that brught the lrst news OF
the disaster.
Until the Booth liner Gregory,
fresh from a two thousand mile voy-
age up the Amazon, arrived today,
the eight men taken off the Oklaho-
ma by the steamship Bavaria were
believed to have been the only ones
saved. But the Gregory had FIVE
more Of the shipwrecked crew that
her officers had dragged firm the boil
ing sea at the risk Of their own lives.
OF the Oklahoma's crew Of thirty
eight, eleven manned the boat that
reached the Gregory; nineteen took
to the other boat and eight stayed
aboard, to be saved by the Bavaria.
OF the larger bat load probably all
were lost. OF the eleven in the
eleven in the smaller boat, six were
drowned when the boat capsized bare

Until this can bedOne we owe it to
ourselves as a nation effectively to
safeguard ourselves against all likeli-

up to the highest point Of prepared
ness, We should handle it purely from
military considerations, and should see
that the training was never intermit-

army larger and more effective than at

lieve that we should return TO the ideal

land at the moment is saved from the
fate Of Belgium only because of her
navy and the small size Of her army,
her lack of arms. her lack of previous
preparations, doubtless afford the real
