Washington, June 1s.-Describ-

ginning with the rock" the National
Geographic Society says of 1t and its
people:
Montenegro, after successfully de-
Tending her Independence from bleak
shoulder of rock for more than 500
years against all corners, has in COM
mon with her sister nations of the
Balkans, begun to aspire to empire
abroad, and one of the fields toward
which she looks with warm desire Is
that of Herzegovina is continuation
of the Montenegro mountains. 1t has
an area OF $3.50 square miles. or,

double that tiny kingdoms territory.
II would, also, bring 100000 more per-
sons under the scepter of King Memo
las. Montenegrin statistics make one
realize what a prize Herzegovina would
be. Montenegro has area of $500
square miles and population OF S2o,-
600.
Herzegovina joins Montenegro In
the South and Bosnia in the North,
The mountain formations of Bosnia
end Herzegovina are similar, but the
latter land is not SO fertile as It's
larger neighbor. There is saying
that: Bosnia begins with the forest,
HERZEGOVINA with the rock. Here.

PROFESSOR FACES
ACCUSING WOMEN

Aurora, ILL.,. June 1s.-Professor Al
bert S. Kingsford, superintendent OF
the West Side schools of Aurora,
will be called upon tomorrow night
by the board of school trustees to
answer the charges made by promi-
nent women of the city that he In
suited them. For several weeks the
battle has been brewing, and the
accusing women have worked up pub
lie feeling.
The women in the case are Mrs.
Edward o. Blackburn, Mrs. Howard
II. Hough and others. Kingsford was
led to police station on Monday
night, May "a. after several women
had complained OF his conduct. Prose
cution of the charges IN court has
been stayed pending the action OF the
school board. II the professor is dis
charged, there will be no prosecution.
Ii was announced.
Professor Kingsford has denied the
charges, and his adherents say the
whole matter is a frame-up on the
part of men he fought in a wet-and-
dry campaign last year. The profess
sor was identified with the dry ele-
ment. While attending a Bible class
to which he belongs. the professor
made his first public denial. His wife
was in the class at the time.

KENTUCKY REPUBLICAN
CONVENTION TO MEET

Lexington. KY, June 1b.--The re-
turn of the Bull Moosers to the Re-
publican fold and the possible re-
lection of the plan to endorse State
wide prohibition are the leading
features OF the State Republican Con-
vention. which meets here Tuesday.
The Roosevelt adherents were strong
ly represented in the gathering of
over 1900 delegates, and the re-
organization of the old battle lines
is a cause for JOY in both wings of
the party. The convention will get
right down to business and write
the platform on which the G.. O. P.s
are to fare forth in the
primaries on August 7. and the regu~
lar election on November 2. Those
favoring Statewide prohibition
plank are relying upon Judge Ed.
c. O'Roar. of Frankford. to lead
fight for the cause on the convention
floor. 1t is considered likely by the
leaders that cold water will be
thrown on this issue and that the
county unit law will be endorsed by
the convention.
