woodchuck as Digger

Hiram johnson a farmer living
near Waterville; N. Y, tells a
beautiful tale of how he utilities
the digging propensities of three
woodchucks which he captured.
He said he has trained them to
dig straight postholes any depth
and size required. He explains
that he ties a cord to one of the
animals hind legs, indicates
where the hole is to be dug, and
when it is sufficiently deep he
pulls the cord. The woodchuck
then scrambles up for his re-
ward of dried alfalfa.

TWO LOCAL TALENT PLAYS
PLEASE LARGE AUDIENCES

The people of Carthage were
given rare treats with the two
plays, ''Old Deestrict Skule, !"
and Because / Love You, !"
which were presented By local
talent at the court house last
Friday and Saturday nights.
The ''Old Deestrict Skule'
was presented by a number of
ladies and gentlemen of Car
thage under the auspices of the
Baptist Ladies Aid Society. The
play was one of the most comi-
cal ever presented here and kept
the audience in an uproar of
laughter from the time the pro-
gram began until the closing act.
Prof. A. 5. Williams was
teacher" of the '.skuIe" and he
did everything but spare ther rod.
j. nj. Cox, S. F. W&rd and L A.
Lyon We're the 'deestrict direc-
tors and the pupils presented a
most laughable entertainment in
order that the directors might
get some idea of the proficiency
with which the 'skule'' was be-
ing taught. Other visitors of
the school were Mrs. w. V. Lee
and Mrs. j. M. Gardenhire, who
had amusing parts in the pro-
gram. One of the most pleasing
features given by pupils was the
duet given by Mrs. Julian Fisher,
who used a French Harp and
Mr.. F. G. Bradford, who proved
himself to be master of the
Jews Harp. This number was
repeatedly encored.
Following are those composing
the school. Mesdames Lee Duke,
Floyd Robinson, l.. B. Flippen,
F. G. Bradford, E. S. Hart, Ed
High, Julian Fisher. A. S. Will
liams, M. Y. Beasley. Miss Jen-
ME Mckee; Prof. A. s. Williams
teacher, Messrs. w. V. Lee, H.
B. Highers, F. G. Bradford,
Frank Yeaman, Lee. Euke, Floyd
Robinson, Chas. Vantrease. G..
B. Thackston and j. B. Chapman.
The play proved to be such a
great success that large num-
Der of requests have been re-
ceived to give it at other places
in the county. special invitations
having been received from Cor
louisville, MonoviIle and Dixon
Springs, and it is more than like
ly the play will be presented at
these places.
On Saturday night the pretty
love story, Because l Love
You," was presented in four
acts by the pupils of the Car
thage High School. The play
was given under the direction of
Miss Ethel Fischer, music and
expression teacher, and each
part was presented in a manner
entirely pleasing to the large
audience present.
The cast of characters was
composed Of the following:
Misses Maggie Chapman, Louise
Moore, Lucy Swope, and Messrs.
Horace Webb, Frank Lee Bryan
Reasnover, THEODORE Boyd, Robt.

LEGISLATION PROGRAM NOT
COMPLETE, SAYS CANNON

In letter received In Richmond yes
terday. Rev James Cannon, Jr., super
intendent OF the Anti-Saloon League.
denies that leaders Of the organiza-
ton have agreed on the principal points
in the prohibition legislation, which
the General Assembly this winter will
be asked to enact. He says there has
been no meeting OF the leaders for the
purpose of discussing legislation in
several months and there is not likely
10 be one until the Supreme Court OF
the United States passes on an appeal
case. involving the validity of certain
sections of the West Virginia prohibi-
tion statute.
DR.. Cannon says that when they do
meet they will meet in conference with
leading members of the General AS
sembly to consider the provisions of
the proposed law, and they have the
right TO do this just as much as physi-
clans or as educators have the right
to confer with members OF the General
Assembly concerning laws for the State
Board of Health or the State Board of
Education"
The superintendent asserts that he
never heard the name OF Rev. j. Sid
ney Peters mentioned for the position
of prohibition commissioner. He takes
occasion. however, to indorse Mr.. Pet
ers for the position should it be
created
Leading prohibitionists. some of them
not actively affiliated with the Anti
saloon League. have known for some
time that certain leaders of the Lea que
nave been mapping out the program
OF legislation for the enforcement Of
prohibition and that the organiza ton
desired the Office of prohibition COM
missioner created. DR.. Cannon and Mr.
Peters have both been mentioned for
the position. but the latter is said to
have been decided upon.
