Rogers.
Ned was neighbor's boy and no re-

called Mr.. Thwaite grandfather, how

One day in the long ago Mr.. Thwaite

He was missing for three days and
then the Allertons received word that

"POssum Hunter" Cases in Butler
Continued.


Morgantown, KY, May 3.-This
was the opening day of the May
term of the Butler county court. and
a large crowd was in attendance in
the expectations that the so-called
"possum hunting" cases would be
called for trial. However, they were
not taken up and it is understood
that an order will be entered by
Judge Mckenzie Moss tomorrow
putting them over until the October
term of the court, Commonwealth S
Attorney Gillian and lawyers for the
accused having reached an agree
ment to that effect. 1t is believed
that If there are no further diff
culties on the "possum hunting"
type between this time and the Octo-
Der term the indictments will be filed
away.
About seventy persons are under
indictment. So far there has been one
conviction, that of Pres. C. Jenkins.
who was tried at Bowling Green on
a change of venue asked by the
Commonwealth. A motion for a new
trial is pending.
A number of civil cases grow
ing out of the so-called "possum hun
ting" have been put over until the
October term. What disposition
will be made Of them then is not
known. In these cases the plain
tiffs ask damages in various amounts.

Building and Loan Associations to
Meet.

Meet.
Unusual interest attaches to the
forthcoming convention of the Ken
lucky League of Building and Loan
Associations, which will be held at
the Watterson Hotel, Louisville, May
27-2S.
The business sessions will be held
at the Watterson and an open meet
ing will be held at Macauley's The
alter, May 27, at which time addresses
will be made by some of the most
notable figures in the building and
loan work in America. Several en-
tertainments are planned for the del
egates to the convention and all
Kentuckians who are interested in
the subjects, particularly the sub
ject of Farm Loans" are invited
to the Macauley's Theater meeting.
The Kentucky League has decided
to spend much Of its energies this
year in building associations, at least
one in every county and in this work
will have the fullest cooperation
from the banks and trust companies,
which are unable to make the long
time loans that small home-seekers
reuire, an average on the building
and loan plan Of twelve years.
The Louisville Associations have
agreed to supply without cost copies
of their bylaws to persons through
out the State who are considering
the organization of such associa-
tions in their local communities.
Application has been made for low
railroad rates to Louisville on ac-
count of the convention.

Hartford High School never has
had an atheletic team Of any kind
that could beat any other team with
consistency. The fact is it has had
mighty few teams at all and even
those never had the real support and
backing of the school. Why has this
phase of school life been neglected?
That it appeals strongly to the aver
age youth is admitted, and many a
student could be attracted to the
local school by such means. Not only
would athletics appeal to many who
otherwise would not continue in
school but 1t would make school life
more interesting for those enrolled.
IT'S true, there would be some ex-
pense attached but there are many
ways by which money can be raised
for such a purpose and If the stu
dents are really interested they will
help. Organize this branch, put
manly coach in charge and the moral
and physical development will be
surprising. A football team should
be developed to meet the challenges
of neighboring high schools. 1t
would not carry away many laurels
the first year, certainly, but in few
years il should be able to hold its
own within its class. There would be
no trouble as TO basket ball and base
ball, too, would take care of itself.
The town would support these var
ious teams if they were deserving
support. More than that. the
chance to support such teams would
be welcomed by local lovers of clean
sports.
