Capt. Leon Caraway, of Big
Sandy, Talks To People,
Other Springville News

Springville was the center of
attraction Saturday night.
The scene on the grounds near
the Baptist church looked grand
as the surging masses of people
gathered around spacious tables
to enjoy cream, berries. cake
and other refreshments, while
the Springville Concert Band
rendered beautiful music at in
tervals.
Capt. Leon Caraway was a
prominent visitor, in company
with W. B. Akers and others
from Big Sandy, and took occa-
sion, while making announce
ments, to paw a much deserved
compliment to the land and it's
work, urging the members to
keep together. +"
The boys have labored hard,
made good progress and now feel
sure of success for already they
have been invited to other places
to play.
The purpose of the occasion
Saturday night was to raise a
building fund and the nice little
sum of $25 was realized. In adj
dition to the good features was
the good department of the
crowd.
By the way, the speeches OF
Ernest Sthall must not be forgot.

features of the occasion. And
so passes into history an event OF
note in this little city.

A recent divorce case gives one
much material for reflection. The
grounds were the usual Incompatible
|ity Of temper, or something of that
sort, but the husband confided to an
intimate friend that his wife's appear
ance at the breakfast table was the
real factor in their estrangement.
"She would come downstairs in the
morning looking positively dreadful, !,
he walled despairingly, land nothing
could say would make her smarter
up one bit! Clothes should reflect
ones mood, she would say, and as
neither you nor feel at our brightest
or best during the early morning, why
should bother to dress prettily"
i Why, indeed? There certainly are
Y a great many why's. But the lady un'

or the, import Of the various reasons

gan, and where she should always

FROM THE EDUCATORS
NOTEBOOK.

The most notable feature of eouca-
tion during the year just closed is, the
widespread adoption of university
extension - the general awakening
throughout this country and all the
countries at peace to the realization
that the function of the university was !
not confined to college walls. This big |
idea in modern education has spread |
from Wisconsin to all educational cen f,
ters. No longer does small groupi
of scholars cloister itself to imbibe]
the higher learning, to the exclusi0u
of the rabble. Today the unfversitiesd
of America are trying to make the
whole people intelligent and well-in-
. formed, and to spread their range to
: include the teaching of everything
worth while. There are those who
fear the expense and the effort are
too great, and that the university is
: weakened by it's numerous branches.
? In this land of evolution there can
never be too much education, declare
: the advocates of the extension system.
= The popularity of the system in Wis
consin, where it was conceived and
= first put into practice is sufficient an
:. swer as to the way the people greet
- the spread of higher education. And

among ones acquaintances, there are

If women who are inclined to be
needless over the appearance they
present at the breakfast table, would
only realize the risk they are run

little more sharply. For no man likes
to sit opposite an untidy, unattractive
wife. Moreover, it would be well fol

her husband is only human, and thai
when he leaves her and goes into the
city he sees hundreds of attractive
