1T was busy week at Boise and
our conference with the state board
was largely conference over educa-
tional matters affecting all the state in
stitutions," said DR.. Brannon. THE
first day of the session was devoted
largely to the Pocatello technical ia
stitute and mapping out the work that
should properly be taken up includ-
ing some courses in the first two years
only of college work. 1t is the pur-
pose of the board to corelate the
work with that of the university with
view of exchanging the value of the
university courses at Moscow
''The next day was taken up in ar
ranging for the three summer schools
which under the law must be held il
the state. A decision was reached to
hold one session at Albion, one at
Boise, and one at Lewiston. The uni
versity will join with the Lewiston
normal in the summer school during
the biennium, the first joint session
to be held at Lewiston and the next al
Moscow. 1t was deemed wise to lay
hold of this problem with as little out
lay as possible. The work OF teaching
the high school courses will be credit
ed to the university and for teaching
in the lower grades the credits will be
given to the normal.

SPLENDID HOLIDAY
MIR. AND MRS. GEORGE CREIGH.
TON RETURNED HOME LAST
EVENING
California is Becoming a Vast Play
ground for the Entire
Nation

Mr.. and Mrs. George Creighton, VIII,
have been in California for a number
of weeks past, have returned from
their fine holiday trip and report thai
| they had glorious time.
Il sometimes think" said Mr.
Creighton, that we ought to be given
two separate lives on this earth,-one
in which to acquire experience and
one in which to enjoy the fruits of it,
| believe if it were so arranged We
would all come to realize that we
have too little pleasure and avail our
selves of too few opportunities to en-
joy the best things of life"
That Mr.. Creighton did not slip up
on any of the chances offered him in
California to enjoy life either night or
day is evident from one of his COM
ments on the trip. eve used to buy
the morning paper just as we were 60
ing home at night, and so when
woke the next morning about nine
o'clock l had it handy to read"
Mr.. Creighton's account OF the de-
lights of his journey is extremely in
eresting, and his description of the
lrives through acres of orange trees |
n full bloom and to all the seaside |
escorts is almost as good as jumping
IN the train and going to see for ones

Commercialized Marriages
the, Bane of the Ameri-
can People
By Dr.. A. EDWIN KEIGWIN, Pastor
West End Congregational Church.
New York

|OMMERCIALIZED matrimony
II , is damning the American
people today. A man hunts
for a wife as he might hunt for a
horse. God has nothing whatever
to do with such marriages, and
thank God there are courts where
they can be terminated!
THERE NEVER WAS A MAR
RAGE MADE IN HEAVEN THAT
WAS SMASHED ON EARTH.
When a man and woman make
a Wall street speculation of mar
riage they lose in nine cases out of
ten. Before the honeymoon is over
they are calling each other cheats.
Now, | don't pity these persons so
much because they get no more than
they deserve. On the other hand.
| don't believe they should be pun
ished for life.
However, | don't believe in play
ing fast and loose with marriage.

THERE is evident in our present

THERE is evident in our present
day standards of conduct for
home life reaction from the
too severe training of two genera
tons ago. This has resulted in a
lowering of standards and loose
ness of training on the part of par

DIRECT RESULT. WE ARE

If the tone of home conversation
were kept scrupulously pure and
fine. would the world so easily be
able to leave its smutty finger print
upon our children's lips? If true
patriotism were taught around our

WIDOW ATTACKS NEGRO
WHEN HE is ACQUITTED OF
Staying HER HUSBAND.
Cry for Help and Thought Hus-
band the AssaiIant.

ATLANTA, Ga.-The acquittal Of
the negro who shot and killed w. E.
Ormond last November created a
tensely dramatic scene in the court
house Thursday afternoon when the
wife of the slain man Historically &C
cused the freed man, almost preclpi-
tdting near riot, and necessitating
an ambulance trip to the hospital.
The slayer, Walter Ballard, after
five months of Imprisonment, admit
ted the shooting, but was acquitted
en- the defense that he had answered
Mrs. Ormond's cries for help, and had
shot her husband under the belief
that he was her assaiiant. Judge
Ben Hill paid tribute TO the jury's
verdict, pronououncing 1t fair and
worthy.
AS the negro walked from the
court room free man Mrs. Ormond,
who was accompanied by members
of her family, rose unsteadily from
her seat. She was weeping and the
arms of relatives led her to the door
way. The court room was crowded
and as the crowd filed out Mrs. Or
mOnd encountered the acquitted man
She fell into a CONFUSION of hys-
terics, seeking to tear herself from
the hold of those about her and rush
upon Ballard. She shouted accdsa-
tions, screaming that he had murder-
ed her husband in cold blooi.
A squad of policemen from head
quarters was hurried to the court
house, and protected the negro from
the huge crowd that had gathered
upon the sidewalk and steps leading
to the court house.
The acquitted negro testified that
he had been attracted on the night
of the shooting by the screams Of
help from Mrs. Ormond when a ne
gro snatched her purse as she was
returning home.
Her outcries also attracted her
husband, who came from the Ormond
home with a rifle. The negro Ballard
also had a gun. In the darkness,
he said, he mistook Ormond for the
robber simultaneously Ormond
caught sight of Ballard, and believ-
ing him to be the negro who had at
tackled his wife opened fire. A fusil-
lade ensued, in which both men were
struck by bullets.

JASPER COUNTY WAS
ONE TIME RANDOLPH
Name Was Changed in 1912 When
Man For Whom 1t Was Named
Became Odious to GeOrgians.


ATLANTA.-When Secretary of
State Cook was investigating the dis
puted boundary line question be-
tween Butts and Jasper counties he
ran across an interesting bit of Geor-
gia history.
1t was discovered in the record
that Jasper county was originally
Randolph. named in honor of John
Randolph of Roanoke in 1907. In
1912 the general assembly decided it
didn't like John Randolph's record
and passed g resolution declaring
that since Ibis official conduct had
rendered his name odious to all re-
publican citizensas well as to Geor-
gia people the name of the county
should be changed and it should
thereafter be known as Jasper, after
the revolutionary hero.
The old grudge against Randolph
of Roanoke, however, evidently born
of politics. did not last but fifteen or
sixteen years. The political minds
twisted around, and by 1928 Ran
dolph was again a hero in the eyes
of Georgians. The legislature of that
year created a new county out of part
of Lee and decided that it should be
called Randolph. Thus Georgia has
twice named a county after John
Randolph of Roanoke.

BOLT PLANNED BY
SOUTHERN DEMOCRATS?
LOUISIANA LEADERS SAID TO
BE WORKING UP SENTIMENT
AMONG DISSATISFIED.
IN SEVERAL STATES IN DIXIE

Georgia, Alabama, Florida and Texas
Are Also Declared Anxious For a
Fight on Basis of Tariff Record
and Bryan's Record.
WASHINGTON.- Louisiana DEM
ocrats are preparing to lead dissat-
istied Southern democrats in a bolt
against the national democratic par
ty, according to reports current here.
The bolt is to be based on the tariff
record of the party, and is intended
to emphasize party opposition in GER
tain Southern industrial states to the
tariff policies of present leaders and
the Bryan doctrine of free raw mate
rials.
To Fight Regular Democracy.
State elections are to be held In
Louisiana next year. In August it is
proposed to put up democratic
protection ticket" against the organ
ization ticket. The demand of this
new wing of the party in Louisiana
will be protection for local indus
tries to such extent as protection may
be needed"
Regular democracy, according to
this report, is to be fought because
of its destruction of the sugar and
rice interests for the benefit of the
Cuban planters.
! A like sentiment of opposition is
being worked up in Florida, Georgia,
Alabama and Texas, from all of
which states, it is claimed, come re-
ports of loss of business and stagna-
tion of local industries under the ex-
listing tariff.
President Wanted i'm Louisiana.
Florida, it is said, is practically
shut out of the Northern market for
its citrus fruits on favorable terms
because of the preferential tariff ex-
tended to Cuba Georgia is suffering
from the same conditions, but in less
degree. Free iron ore from Cuba
forms the chief competition with the
ores of Alabama, due largely to the
cheap water transportation. In Tex
as rice is the subject of grievance,
with Cuba as the favored country.
President Wilson will be urged to
go to Louisiana and make political
speech to head off the movement,
while the discomfort reported to exist
in Alabama among the iron workers,
miners and manufacturers is said to
be so great that SenatOr-elect Under
wood feels it necessary to make sew
eral speeches.

FOrgives Couple, and All Is
Now Happiness.

BALTIMORE.-A pretty 16-year-
old bride chatting with her young
husband over long drawn out
breakfast in the dining room of the
Hotel Howard this morning looked
up to see two headquarters detectives
beside the table looking sternIy down
at her.
eve want YOU" they said
what for?" she asked in a trem-
bling voice, while her tace paled and
blushed.
Your father will explain that lat
err" answered the detectives.
The couple got up from the table
and after getting their hats and coats
accompanied the detectives to head
quarters, where they sat all after
noon until the arrival of the father.
Father Ordered Arrest.
The girl is Gladys Stinson Carr, of
York, Pa, and her husband is Claude
b. Carr, of Albany, Ga. The father
of the girl is George B. Stinson, an
official of the General Roofing Co., of
York, Pa, who telegraphed the de-
scription of the girl and ordered her
arrest.
Three weeks ago Carr appeared in
York, Pa, to sell automobile sup
plies. With a blush the girl admit
ted that it was a case of love at first
sight. Last Tuesday the girl slipped
out of the home of a relative in
Washington and took a train for An
napolis and met her fiance. Rev. G.
F. Bell made them one.

afternoon and met his daughter in
the police court room there was a pit
iful scene. The young bride, think
ing that he was going to prefer a
charge against her husband threw
her arms around the parents neck
and begged and pleaded that they
be forgiven. With tears in her eyes
she said it was a case of love at first
sight and that she wanted to stick
to Claude wherever he goes. The
fathers heart was touched and he
finally decided to forgive. Later he
left the city, taking the young couple
with him home.

MOBILES OF SHRINE
MEET IN VALDOSTA
GORGEOUS STREET PARADE HAS
BEEN PLANNED THERE
FOR TOMORROW.
DAWSON MOBILES ARE GOING
Many Prominent Men of South GeOr-
gia viii Be Candidates For the Big
Ceremonial. Event to BE Spectac-
uIar and Interesting


One of the most spectacular and
interesting events ever occurring in
the history of Valdosta and the en-
tire South Georgia section will be the
ceremonial to be held in Valdosta on
Wednesday, April A, by Alec Temple
Ancient and Original Order of Mobiles
of the Mystic Shrine of Savannah.
Alec Temple will leave Savannah
on a special train in full parapher-
naia accompanied by the United
States Military Band from Fort Scriv-
en- with sufficient enthusiasm to carry
into execution whatever plans or pro-
gram they may have formulated for
the entertainment of candidates and
visiting mobiles.
Valdosta will be the mecca r
shriners all over the state and the
bunting, and business will practically
be suspended in honor of the occa-
sion.
Not only will the candidates be
given special attention, but the gen
eral public will be greatly interested
in the magnificent street pageant that
will take place in Valdosta Wednes-
day morning. The parade will form
in the neighborhood of the Valdes
Hotel, and start through the streets
of the city at 10 o'clock One of the
features of this parade will be so
candidates who will not ride in auto
mobiles More than Is cars have al
ready been assured for the parade,
which will be occupied by the Illus
triOus POtentate of Alec Temple and
his cabinet in the full regailia of
Turkish robes. The officers of the Di-
van will occupy an elaborate float
decorated with angels and white
doves of peace drawn by four large
Kentucky snow white horses. There
will be candidates from Thomasville,
cambridge, Albany, Americas, Daw-
son. Cordele, Figerald, Douglas,
Waycross, Brunswick, Quitman and
FaIdosta.
All mobiles are expected to be in
Valdosta early Wednesday morning.
They will be met at the train by a
committee of Shriners and escorted
to their hotels. After the parade
luncheon will be served in honor of
the Shriners. The afternoon will be
given to social enjoyment and addi-
tional parade and visits to places of
interest about Valdosta.
The big show with no side attrac-
tons and only one ring will start
promptly at o'clock. At that hour
all further details of program will be
wasted on the delinquent mentality
Of the bewildered candidates, and as
matter of fact the public at this
time is not invited to know just what
will take place after o'clock.
Some of the candidates may be ex-
pected in their home towns within
the next ten days after the ceremo-
NAL. If they are not heard from by
the first of May their friends may
communicate with the Illustrious Po-
tentate of Alec Temple at Savannah.
For information of the candidates
wives have them clad as if going coon
hunting on a dark and stormy night.
