WOODROW SCHOOL
CLOSING EXERCISES
EXCELLENT PROGRAM OF HIGH
CLASS GIVEN BY THE PUPILS
IN EXPRESSION.

The commencement exercises of
the Woodrow school closed Wednes-
day night with an expression contest,
which was attended by an audience
that filled the new building to over
flowing. In the school contest, Miss
Emma D. Foster won the first medal
with the selection, "Nobody's OAR
ling" Miss Isora Foster was the
winner of the second medal with
THE Little Hotel Keeper"
In the contest between the pupils
of the expression class, there were no
less than nine contestants. The last
number on the program, Where
Thou Goest, l Will Co." given by Miss
Nettie Foster, took the first prize.
Miss Elizabeth Drake won the second
medal with "Woman's Vengeance"
Superintendent John P. Graham,
who was one of the judges, and who
presented the medals, spoke in the
highest terms of the excellence of the
contests.
The commencement exercises start.
ed on last Saturday evening when the,
expression class Of Miss Choate gave
an extensive program. On Sunday
the commencement sermon was
preached by Rev. w. r. Bourne, state
supervisor Of high schools. Monday
night the pupils gave a concert, while
on Tuesday evening they appeared
in the play, "The Fruit of His Folly"
a five act comedy. The exercises

preston contest.

versity of Tennessee and the theo-
logical school at Lebanon. He has
spent sixteen years in the active pas
torate. For the past twelve years
he has been in the evangelistic field,
and has conducted meetings from
one side of the country to the other.
Nearly ten thousand souls are said to
have professed to be saved under his
ministry in this time.
Mr.. Lewis has very unique way Of
conducting a meeting. He does not
follow the usual method of the evan
gelists. He has a portable tent, the
gift of some gentlemen who heard
him in one Of his meetings, in which
a large audience can be seated. The
party moves from town to town, nev-
er making long jumps, but taking
them in order. There is no waste Of
time or money in this way Before
the meeting finishes in one place,
some of the party go ahead and make
arrangements in the next city for the
revival. The result is that when
Rev. Lewis reaches the new place,
the field has already been worked up
for him, and the community is ready
to receive the message that is
brought to it.
Rev. Lewis and his party appeal
rather to the unsaved masses than to
those who are already in the church.
He does not depend for his aid upon
the local pastors, though he is always
glad to receive their support and
help. He simply leaves them free
and unpledged as officials and organi.
cations. He met with several of the
Columbia preachers last Monday
morning, but as all were not present,
he has addressed to each a letter,
outlining his plans and earnestly re-
questing their cordial cooperation in
the meeting.

Hens are a bit stronger than they

OPEN MEETING Of
PHYSICIANS PROVES
INTERESTING ONE
PREVENTABLE BLINDNESS Il
ABLY DISCUSSED BY DRs.
CANT AND WILKES.
STEREOPTICAN VIEWS ARE SHOWN
Lecture of the Last Named Speaker
Is Appropriately lIIustrated-Spec.
lal Attention Given to Light in the
Study Halls of Schools.

While the attendance was not what
the Importance of the subject de-
manded, the first of the series of open
meetings to be held by the Maury
County Medical Society for the dis
cussion of preventable diseases, at
the Elk's Club on Wednesday night
was a most interesting event. 1t was
profitable to all who recognized its
Importance and attended and it is to
be regretted that the physicians who
are engaged in this work of unselfish-
ness were not given greater encour-
agement.
The meeting was opened by DR..
Otey j. Porter, who outlined in a gen.
eral way the object in mind with the
physicians in holding these public ed
ucational sessions. He spoke of the
campaign that had been inaugurated
by the American Medical Association
to prevent diseases.
Dr. Cant was the next speaker, ad-
dressing his remarks to the general
subject Of preventable blindness,
speaking Of the many causes which
contribute to this dread affection,
which could be prevented if only
proper care were taken. DR.. Giants
address showed the most careful
thought and deepest research and he
was listened to with the most mark
ed attention.
DR.. Wilkes spoke to the slides or
stereopticon views that are furnish
ed by the American Medical Associa-
ton, and he addressed his remarks es-
pecially to lighting school rooms and
to the care of the eyes of the school
children. He spoke of the necessity
of not only having the proper light
in the study halls, but also of the
books, the kind of paper and the size
and form of the type that should be
used in order that there might be the
minimum of strain on the eyes. DR..
Wilkes address was an able treatise
of the subject.
At the conclusion of the meeting.
DR.. Porter, president of the local
medical society, and the other physi-
clans, were warmly congratulated
and commended upon their undertake
ing.

So far as relates to foreign trade, 1t
may safely be assumed that there will be
no change in the German policy regard
ing syndicates. The street syndicate was
renewed in 1913 for period of five years.

down, and also restricted their freedom
of action. Most of the employers COM
planned that the workmen were losing
their independence, and were becoming
less and less efficient
Nevertheless, the general view was
its powerful industrial organization
and become such a factor in world
trade without the plans of Bisma rex
and the economists and thinkers from
whom he got his ideas having been
put into effect.
The standard of living of the artisan.
however, does not seem to be raised.
Investigations by the official agencies
two years ago showed that the family
market basket was too often light and
that frequently it also represented a
deficit in income. But generally the
German contention is that while there
is much poverty there is little pauper-
ism as compared with England, and
that In the economic and trade con-
test between the two peoples poverty
Is less handicap than pauperism.
Recurring to the Industrial evolution,
Germany began building merchant ma
rtne as soon as 1t became apparent that
her factories would have surplus products
to sell. Immense quantities of raw mate
rails had to be imported, and the settled
national policy came to favor importing
these raw materials. and exporting the
finished products in German bottoms

forms of subventions. but private enter

The war is not expected to end its ex-
istence. The international syndicates in
which German Industries are members
of course, find their activities complete
ly paralyzed.
With an understanding of the govern
ment policy toward export trade, and the
share of the syndicates in promoting it, a
more comprehensive view may be had Of
the whole subject of Germany's foreign
commerce.
1t Is possibly something more tnan
a coincidence that last year in the
totals of the s5.000.000.000 of foreign
commerce the imports and exports al
most balanced each other. The i'm
ports, due to the raw materials wanted
for German industries, exceeded the
exports by only $150,000.0 900. 1t is also
notable that the tonnage of inflowing
and outgoing traffic almost balanced.
In metric tons the imports were 49,
$4,000 tons, and the exports 1851 900
tons. German bottoms, therefore, came
and went with about the same guam
tity of cargo.
Germany's trade with the United
States. which is so completely par
alyzed by the war. is a one-sided one.
That is, Germany imports very large
~ raw materials from and sends them
back in the form of finished product
Cotton and copper are the chief i'm
ports. The southern cotton growers,
for the time being. lose the market for
100000 tons of cotton. The grain mar
ket, it may be presumed, is not closed
