a team, providing they will have the
support OF the business men. They do
not ask any cash donations. but they
do think that better crowds should

in the town. There is no better adj
vertisement for town than good
baseball team and besides this it fur

Carroll and Ft Dodge are to have sal

 Improves Second School
 year ago, when theiwinter term of the school closed, Miss Shelton was asked by County Superintendent Williamson to take a school 15 miles away. It was an- other country school and one where such work as she had done at Union school was needed. It is in a remote farming district not far from the Shelby-St Clair county line, and, lacking leader, had receved scant attention The schoolhouse offered little encouragement. but that was not what Miss Shelton was asking for
 She organized school improvement as- sociation, which drew the patrons together in the interest of the school and soon there were better furnishings, the roof was repaired. the use of an acre of ground was given for a school garden, and the coir n.unity Was interested in the well fare of it's school. One of the men took cars Of q hoy who had no opportunity and who was working for him for board and monthly wages. Instead of having him work all day, as they had contract ed, he sent him to school during the day and paid him as he had promised, though he worked only night and mornings Miss Shsltoti gave him extra help. He was d boy who had never been treated fairly until then.
 
 While the children were from farm hon es, they had undertaken little farm CT household work on their own respon- sibility. and Miss Shelton encouraged them to do this She directed practical manual training and domestic arts at their homes. and thus introduced work that would have been neglected without her ingenuity and her refusal to let it go rncone simply because there was no way to teach it at school. Beside, this connecting home and school work made another bond between the patrons and their school.
 Work Against llliteracy
 The patrons were interested in the school. and Miss Shelton saw no reason why she should not extend her teaching to those older peoeple who wanted it; and she began what is now one of her prin- cipal lines of work, to remove the stigma of illiteracy in her county. She opened a moonlight school. teaching in a church near the home where she boards. The blue back speller was used, and for read ing texts, the newspapers and the adopt ed school readers were chosen. One of the patrons gave his services in teaching sight reading and harmony, and another In teaching writing.

Address
Especial to The Times-Dispatch. !

t'peCidI 10 l nc INES DlSpatCn.1
CiARG,OTTESVIfLE, VA, February
l3.-Rarcly has University OF Vir-
Ginia audience heard such an eloquent
and impressive address as that deiiv-
cred In Cabell Hall by DR.. John
tian student Federation. Fresh from
the European war zone and from Can
ada where he saw how the people OF
that country are docking to the Brit
ish colors. DR.. Mott brought and
vividly related stirring recollections of
the war.
DR.. Mott was offered and declined the
post OF United States ambassador to
China. President Alderman, in intro
ducinS him last night, referred to him
as "a great Christian statesman"
After graphic description Of scenes
In England. Holland, Belgium. France
and Germany, DR.. Mott dwelt upon
some of the lessons to be drawn from
this vast struggle.
Mighty efforts Will be made as soon
as this nightmare is gone" he said,
FOR strengthening international rela-
tons on basis OF fair dealing and
Christian fellowship. No such period
of revenge will follow this war as
followed that OF 1870
The unselhshness of Europe is seen
In every land. There is not a selfish
man in Europe to-day
The opportunity for cvangelizing
the world will be greater when this
war is over than 1t ever was before.
1t is inspiring TO sec tho position Amer
lea holds In this world to-day, and
to realize what II means when every
nation is so eager for our good will.
corresponding obligation rests upon
America TO render service in due sea-
son toward enduring peace. AMI at
this very time there is pressing need
that we safeguard our Christian
achicvements and strengthen our ef-
forts"
