THE NEWSPAPER LINEUP
The newspaper lineup in the local
campaign is interesting. The News,
Herald, Examiner and American are
playing the SuIivan-Sweitzer game,
the Post is supporting Thompson,
the Journal leans toward Thompson
and the Trib is feeling its way. If it
sees there is a good chance to put
Thompson over it will probably swing
that way, so as to put one over on
the Herald and Examiner.
Roger Sullivan, Victor F. Lawson
and James Kelley are close friends
and the News is generally lined up
with the traction interests. KeeleY's
paper is closely connected with the
Sam Insult interests. Hearst has EVIL
IDENTIFY formed an alliance with Sulli-
van.
What the newspapers are doing
doesn't always appear so plain in the
editorial columns as in the alleged
news reports of the campaign. The
SuIlivan-Sweitzer papers give SWEET
ger the lead in their. news stories and
the Thompson papers play it the 9TH
er way. The object is to influence
readers without them knowing what
is happening to the thinker.
Lawson of the News is especially
bitter toward Thompson. One reason
aside from the traction connection of
the News is a personal bitterness. be-
cause two years ago Thompson in
public speeches referred to Victor F.
Lawson as a taxdodger and showed a
tax check showing that Lawson paid
something over $14 on his 81, soc, 900
mansion, and compared what Mil
lionaire Lawson paid with what the
owner of a small home paid.
Nobody knows yet which way the
Trib cat is going to jump.

Rural Education.

1t is an encouraging sign that the
leading educators of the country are
beginning to devote attention to the
problems of the rural school. The gen.
eral educational board of the National
Teachers Association has taken up the
problem, and at its outset has discover
ed that as a rule all the schools for the
education of teachers in their calling
have devoted their energies to fitting
teachers to meet the conditions that
will confront them in city and village
schools and there has been little train
ing for the rural school teacher and the
problems involved have been treated as
a negligible quantity in the field of edu-
cational effort.
Only few weeks ago meeting was
held in Chicago, called by the state
superintendent of Illinois, to take up
this question, and plans formulated for
a better means of preparation for the
rural teacher. The compliant is that
the urban normal schools instill urban
IDEAS into the prospective teacher ano
of, perchance, a qualified teacher is EN-
ployed in the country. it is but make
shift until position can be obtained in
the city or village. The general boare
is urging consolidated rural schools t
provide better facilities and pay which
will attract capable teachers, and tina
the normal schools devote more TIM
and energy to fitting teachers for in
structors in such schools.

Horsemen Hit Hard by Fire at
Benning.

Fire at Benning Race Track Mon
day night destroyed nearly all the
buildings besides dozen or more OF
valuable race horses, and probably
resulted in a score or more being unfit
for racing for some time because they
were turned loose in order to escape
the flames.
One of the heaviest losers was
George j. Day, whose entire string is
reported lost. Coy, who ran Monday at
Bowie in the third race, is one. the
others being Joe Diebold, Frog and
Talecarrler, who was third on Thurs
day at Pimlico.
Jim Arthur, who has been racing &
big string in Maryland this fall, lost
Good Day, one of the best long-dis
lance horses of the season. Dicl
Carman, whose stable is one of the
largest on the turf, lost Meridian,
good one in his best days. Two young
sters belonging to E. j. Crawford also
were among the unfortunate ones.

Royal Entertainment For Marylad
Country Boys.

Forty Maryland Corn Club Boys, wht
are winners in county contests for 1918
will be royalty entertained in Batimor
on November 10 and goth, by the bust
ness men of that city. These boys, re-
presenting 300 boys enrolled in the
Corn Club Work of the State, are COM
ing in connection with the Maryland
Week Exhibition at the Fifth Regiment
Armory. They will arrive in Company
with the County Demonstration Agents,
who have supervised their work throug-
out the year, on this morning. Head
quarters of the boy prize winners dur
ing their stay will be at the Emerson
Hotel, where they will be entertained
as guests of the Maryland State Bank
ers' Association.
The greatest praise is due to the
business men of Baltimore, both col
lectively and as individuals for the
hearty support they are giving to the
Boys Farm Club Movement as conduct
ed by the Cooperative Extension Ser
vice of the Maryland Agricultural
College, and the U. S. Department of
Agriculture. No greater inspiration
could be given to our. ambitious country
boys than welcoming them to the
metropolis of their State as it's honored
guests. After such an experince they
should return to their homes we'll salts
ed with the splendid recognition which
their work as boys Farm Club MEM
bers is receiving.
They have also striking lesson for
the farmers of Maryland in their efforts
during the past year to raise the stand
ard for corn yields and lessen the cost
of production. Their spendid exhibit |
of over forty ten ar-samples of prize |
corn in the Maryland Week Exhibition |
is ample testimony to the practical in
struction their County Demonstration
Agents are giving them. In fact, it
is splendid tribute to their persever-
rance and energy that out of the 300
Corn Club Boys enrolled, over 100 have
completed every requirement of the
Co-operative Extension Service; name
ly grow an acre of corn, to keep an &C
curate account of the cost of growing
it, to select their best ten ears for ex-
hibition, and to write readable story
of how they grew their crops. the var
ious points being rated as follows:
Yield. ....................3O points,
Cost of Production. ..... 81
Exhibit of ten ears. ....2 20
Story, How Grew My
Crop" ............ .........zU
1t is expected that this work will be
extended during the coming year to
every county and school district in the
State where the cooperation of the
school authorities, farmers, bankers,
and other local business men can be Sc
cured. Every citizen with the agricul-
tural development of Maryland at heart
cannot fail to take pride in the splendid
showing of the Boys's Corn Club in its
first wear as a statewide movement,
and the generous tribute to better
farming which they have won from the
business men of Baltimore. Their |
motto, "To Make The Best Better,
is the keynote of the great forward
movement of rural Maryland, which
the Maryland Week Exhibition ex-
emplifies.
