DEAN COULTER
ON BIRTHDAYS

thirty young people, said Dean Coul-
ter and such conditions as these indi-
cate great things for the state.
DIR. Coulter said in the different ad-
dresses that he has delivered on such
occasions he has endeavored to i'm
press upon the young people the great
resources of the state and its great
possibilities OF the future and urging
upon them the Importance OF prepar-
ing themselves for taking an import
ant part in the future development of
the state. He urged that many OF the
hills OF the Mountain State contain
resources that have not yet been dis
covered and developed and In order to
be able to take their proper place in
the development OF these hidden re-
sources the youn gpeople should pre-
pare themselves.
After his Wheeling engagement as
well as a few other high school en-
gagements Dean Coulter will return
to Morgantown TO take up prepare
tions for the summer school which
opens at the University on June 10.
1t is expected that the summer school
will have an attendance OF seven or
eight hundred students. and prepare
tons are being made at the university
in joining in the birthday anniversary
Of the state on June 20.

CAN HUSBAND
PUT HIS MUDDY
FEET ON BED?
Bishop Quayle Says Woman
Who Would Object Should
Never Get Married.

NORWICH. Conn, Nay 27.-Has a
husband a right to put his muddy feet
on the bedspread?
That question is agitating people
throughout this eastern section of the
state more than politics or spring
planting.
Bishop William A. Quayle presided
at the annual sessions here OF the
Southern New England Methodist Con-
ference. Five hundred ministers and
lay delegates and many others went
TO Trinity Methodist church TO hear
him. In the course OF one OF his
addresses on the duties Of those in the
married state he INDUCED in what the
press agent called "Quayle Flights
Some women ought to be single"
said the bishop, The woman who
does not want man TO put his muddy
feet on the bedspread should not mar
ry."
Now uprises Mrs. Marinda c. Butler
Robinson, suffragist leader and wife OF
physician OF Danielson, Windham
county, and throws her spring hat in
to the ring. with def to the bishop.
1T does moi seem credible, she says,
that an intelligent man should have
made such statement Surely no
reasonable man would. What sense
would man have who would deliber-
ately want to put his muddy feet on a
clean bedspread? What II he were to
do it daily? That would mean seven
bedspreads to be washed every week.
1t is not easy TO wash bedspread,
and no servant would consent to wash
them for men to put their muddy boots
upon. do not believe in nagging, but
do think the woman who would al

a doormat would be sorely lacking in

PiRAEGS, Greece, May 2r.-An
hour or so at n table in front of a
cafe on the water front Of Piraeus,

become to Greece since the outbreak
of the European war. Once the

themselves are Greek. not American,
and on their sides is painted the
Greek flag, the name of the boat in
Roman letters and the single word

hot spring sun, are hundreds of
noisome looking black sacks bearing
the imprint of New York firm and
the label GRADUATED sugar" Once
the sugar of Greece came from
Trieste; now 1t journeys all the way
from New Orleans. Four Greek
merchants are IdSunR the contents

to discuss terms. They all talk at

least attention to what the Others are
saying. When one dissents, he does
not shake his head. but lifts 1t sharp

This is an astounding statement. the

the Germans. which to the ordinary
person makes all the difference
The events which led up to the pres

known to the public. are as follows:
In the first place. the attack on the
Dardanelles and the landing OF troop
on the Gallipoli Peninsula was made
with the knowledge and promised co
operation of the Greek Premier Vent
Zelos. ,
In this the latter apparently acted
without the sanction of King Constan
