FRIENDS FIVES
LOSE GAMES TO
CEDARCROFT

Wilmington Friends School lost to
Cedarcroft yesterday afternoon 26 to
16. II was the second meeting Of
the teams, the first game being
walk-away for the local boys by %
to 10 score.
Cedarcroft, familiar with its own
floor, and the local boys somewhat
out of tune, started the game with
rush. Two field goals by Hubbel
and Moore started the scoring. The
play became rough and two fouls
We're called on Cedarcroft. Finn
dropped the ball IN the basket for
one point, which was soon given COM
pany by a pretty field goal by
Steward, who played In place of
Curtis at guard. Curtis was unable
to be in the game on account OF ILL
ness. During the first half Friends
scored seven points and their oppo-
nents scored seventeen. The local
boys could not find the basket on
the strange floor as they usually do
and this accounted for the lead which
Cedarcroft got
In the second half the local boys
played a better game, due TO their
fighting spirit, which refused to be
downed. Wilson went in for Finn
and played an excellent game. The

SUPREME COURT
UPHOLDS NEW
VENUE LAW
Change Must Be Ordered Where
Mob Violence Is Likely Su-
preme Tribunal Rules.

The Supreme Court Wednesday
settled an important point in the new
change Of venue law. provided in
capital cases where mob violence is
feared. when. in the case Of Kennedy
against the State, II was held that II
is mandatory upon a judge of the 81
perior Court to order a change Of
venue when It is apparent, upon
proper affidavits that mob violence
is likely
This decision is unanimous as to
the law. but two justices. Evans and
Beck. dissent as TO the direction Of
the rehearing.
Kennedy killed his wife in Emanuel
County, and for fear of mob violence
he was removed to Chatham for safe
keeping. He petitioned Judge Raw
lings for a change of venue, upon the
ground that mob violence was likely
TO be inflicted upon him il he was
brought back TO Emanuel for trial
Affidavits were submitted to prove
the petition but no showing was
made to the contrary. Judge Raw
Hngs refused the petition.
The Superior Court held that I'M
der the law of 1911 the Superior
Court judge has no discretion In mat
fers OF this sort, but must order a
change of venue and trial else
where Tho Court Of Review re-
verses Judge Rawlings. and directs
the appeal remanded. with directions
that the change of venue be ordered
The dissenting judges agree as to the
law, but hold that the case should
be sent back for rehearing that evil
dance against the likelihood OF mob
violence might be heard.
In q lengthy opinion from Justice
Atkinson, representing the majority
of the court the court frankly recog
nizes the fact that "lynchings do oc
cur in Georgia" and that trials under
military guard infame the public
mind. Inferentially. therefore, the
court puts the stamp OF its approval
upon the new law.

said, neither the idea of punishment
nor the idea of reformation should
be lost sight of. Certainly a man
should be punished when he violates
the law, but the idea of reformation
should come first
I'VE put men in prison In the hope
of making better men out of Them
and in all imprisonments the hope of
reforming the prisoner should oc-
cupy more attention than the desire

criminal should be punished rather

subject"
Mr. Burns scorned the statements
of famous criminologists that crime
is hereditary.
"That theory is foolish" he said.
Just because a boys father is a
criminal it does not follow that the
boy must be a criminal.
"Heredity has nothing to do with
1t; environment causes crime. En-
vironment is a greater cause of crime
than ignorance, for our greatest Grim
inals are educated men"

Rear Admiral KimbaII Cites Huge
Sum as Drain on Nation by
Lack of Merchant Marine.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 1S,-"The
United States has just finished pay
ing ,O00,OOO.OOO tribute to European
commercial masters for carrying her
freight on the seas.
We are beginning the payment Of
another So 900, 900, 900 to those same
masters. and will round out that sum
unless there is an awakening from
the commercial slumber that needs
not the fact that Americas trade Is
carried entirely in foreign bottoms
ours, the greatest network of rail-
roads in the world, is but fat feeder
to these foreign lines"
This is the embarrassing situation
in which the United States finds her
self on the verge of the opening OF
the Panama Canal declares Rear Ad-
miral w. w. Kimball, through the
Navy League of the United States. He
says:
ITO illustrate the penalty we pay
upon occasion by not having ships of
our own. the wheat of the region
around Seattle during the Boer War
was carried almost exclusively by
British commercial masters
Seattle Left Helpless.
"The Boer War took away those
ships, and Seattle found itself with
out means OF transporting its crops.
Freight went up, and the people
of Seattle paid a fine of 100000
for their lack of trade independence
Were a general European war to
withdraw the ships of Britain, Ger
many, France and Italy. the trade of
the whole nation would not only suf
fer, as did Seattle but would be en-
tirely without transportation facili
ties at any price.
When the American business men
awake they will give us a commerce
Of our own based upon an American
merchant marine. They will change
from a lopslded. tribute-bearing COM
munity to a great, symmetrical, indie
pendent nation, a maritime nation
owning and controlling its maritime
affairs.
They will teach us-the great SUI
perintelligent American people-what
the general run of British, Teutons
and Latins in Europe know already
that no nation with a seaboard can
be a real nation without a commerce
without sea power.
Merchant Marine Possible.
The awakened business man Of
national business sense will grasp the
patent fact that a real commerce will
financially benefit the farmer in Kan
sas more than the fisherman in
Gloucester.
He will realize that this protec-
ZIONIST country can as readily build
up a real commerce as did protec-
ZIONIST Germany Germany took ad-

not able to cash his check in the
bank, because the banks are closed,
so the man is forced to cash his
check near to his working place.
There he meets some of his part

member that a British scientist, Mr.

when a little over a grain of radium

in it will sprouta week sooner, and

is only four inches high. Pretty soon
the roll-top desk farmers, will be
