Good schools are the greatest
asset that any state or communl-
ty can possess. They influence
property values more than any
other one factor. If Amend
ment No. IL is adopted, every
county in the state will profit
thereby.

Probably no man In Virginia in re-
cent years has appeared before the
public in tho cause Of the people as
often and as prominently as Richard
Evelyn Byrd. Mr.. Byrd has been In
the forefront in many active move
ments for advances in good govern
rlent, and in the interests of his State.
He started early In life and is still at
IL.
Fresh In the minds of the people Is
his activity In the passage of the IA
nous liquor law which bears his
name. and in the changes and i'm
provements in the election laws; and
his energy toward equalization of
taxes and better education.
He was author OF tho automobile
law, the liquor law, the primary law
and many acts relative to the tax
system In 1910 he was member OF
the State Education Commission and
the State Tax Commission. Prior to
that he was chairman OF the commit
tee on investigation OF tho Corpora
ton Commission.
Mr.. Byrd was born In 1860. in Aus
tin. Tex. where his father had gone
from Virginia, and at the age o: five
years returned to the old home of his
father in Winchester. He studied at
the Universities of Virginia and Mary
land, where he completed his law
courses. and at the age of twenty
three was elected prosecuting attor-
ney Of his home town, holding the Of
flee for twenty years.
In 1895 he was elected to the House
of Delegates and in 1908 was chosen
presiding officer of that body, holding
The position for three terms.
Upon the election of President Will
son. Mr.. Byrd was appointed 10 the
place of United States District Attor-
ney for the Western District of Vir-
l;inia. which office he now holds.
Mr.. Byrd never gives up the chase
for anything he goes after. He has
been mentioned in connection with
several of the highest positions in the
gift Of the people of the State. besides
those with which he has been hon
ored. but has never considered the
propositions sufficiently to reach a
determination.
The friends OF Mr.. Byrd, Dick"
Byrd, as he is affectionately called,
have hopes of seeing him go still
farther up the ladder of fame, aud
they stand ready "at the drop OF 4
hat" TO escort him forward.

Edgar b. English is one of the
leading young lawyers OF Richmond.
While young In years. being Just forty
years old. he is old in experience, hav-
ing been practicing law for nearly
twenty years. He has been eminently
successful in his profession, and has
won fame in chancery as well as
criminal practice.
For two years Mr.. English has besn
in the public eye. The people of Clay
Ward recognized in him a man of
force and power. They put him in
city Council. where, during two years
Of service, he has been a leading
figure.
Mr.. English is known among his
friends as man of initiative, and
man of purpose He never leaves any
thing half finished, but once having
started. continues along the line laid
down to a successful finish. He is
popular with a wide circle OF friends
1t was through the efforts OF Mr..
English the people OF the West End
retained the jitney service. which had
been practically wiped out OF exist
enCe He also, through his activity,
had Council adopt measure relieV-
ing property owners from the payment
OF delinquent tax bills. which negli-
gent tenants leave behind when they
move elsewhere. This relieves the in
coming tenant of delay in the turning
on of gas. and the payment of other
peoples bills
/ Mr. English was one OF the famous
i investigating committee OF Council
/ through whose efforts the Police
| Board was shaken up. and out OF
which a recommendation OF increased
police force was accepted by City
Council. In his activities in the work
of Council, Mr. English has been con-
servatiye.
The Richmond Virginian. (Richmond, Va.) 1910-1920, 1916-02-13

This experience made him eninently
fitted for the position of City Treas
urer. and he has discharged the du-
ties of that office with unmeasurable
credit to himself and with such salts
faction to the citizens OF Richmond
as to hold Mr.. Pace In the ONCE for
nearly decade OF continuous service,
with every promise of his remaining
there so long as he chooses to hold
the office.
Every person OF means and owning
property in Richmond has business
with the treasurer some time during
each succeeding year, and it is TO the
credit Of MIR. PAGES good nature and
efficiency that all public affairs under
his hands are discharged with practi-
cally universal satisfaction

Is there any one in Richmond bet
ter known and better liked than
James B. Pace. City Treasurer? One
would hesitate to answer that dues-
ton other than in the Affirmative, be-
cause Mr.. Pace is a real Richmond
pioneer. and during all of nearly haif
a century he has passed in this city
he has been prominent In Its business
and financial circles.
The Pace Block, Eighth and Main
Streets. was the first metropolitan
building to be erected in Richmond.
1t was the talk of the State and did
much to spread the fame of Mr.. Pace
throughout Virginia.
For many years Mr.. Pace was presi-
dent OF the Planters National Bank.

Today-Mary Pickford will be seen in her latest and greatest, as well as longest photoplay, Poor Little Pep pina," the seven-reel ParamOunt-Fam- ous Players production. In this pho toplay we are shown the wonderful versatility of Mary Pickford. She is entirely different at the start from any other character she has ever DOT trayed. We see her as kidnapped child working in a Sicilian vineyard, a stowaway disguise das boy, a ''newsie.' bootblack, a fruit vender, an employe Of an opium den, a mes senger boy and. finally the restored mllionaire's daughter. who comes in to he rown The great difficulty in this role lies in the fact that Miss Piekf0rd. in addition to showing the development of the character from early girlhood to maturity, must also bear constantly in mind the fact that Peppina is not really an Italian girl, but is an American girl whose assoei- alton with the Italian people since her kidnapping as . small child, has accustomed her to Latin ways and to the Italian language.

Use Cocoanut Oil
 For Washing Hair

If you want to keep your hair in good condition, be careful what you wash it with.
 Most soaps and prepared shampoos contain too much alkali This dries the scalp, makes the hair brittle, and is very harmful. Just plain nlulsifed cocoanut oil (which is pure and entirely grease less), is much better than the most ex- penslve soap or anything else you can nse for shampooing, as this can't pos- slbly 1nJure the hair.
 Simply noisten your hair with water and rub it in. One or two teaspoonfuls will make an abundance of rich. creamy father, and cleanses the hair and scalp thoroughly. The father rinses out easily. and removes every particle of dust, dirt. dandruff and excessive oil. The hair dries quickly and evenly, and it leaves 1t fine and silky, bright, fluffy and easy to manage.
 You can get mulsihed cocoanut oil at most any drug store. It is very cheap. and few ounces is enough to last everyone in the family for months.

The Washburn leader. [volume] (Washburn, McLean County, N.D.) 1890-1986, 1916-09-01

Observations Of the habits Of the
English sparrow made by the biologi.
cal survey show how living things
adapt themselves to many varying
conditions so as to make the most of
their surroundings, and then become
the victims of other changes that do
not at first sight seem to concern them
at all. The birds brought to the At.
lantic coast of this country several
generations ago spread rapidly all
the land, but stuck tenaciously to
the cities. The spreading flocks did
not stop ut international boundaries,
but have been traced by the survey OBJ
servers both into Canada and Mexico.
The cold of the former country has
brought about almost a complete
change of habits. The emigrants to
Canada have become more thrifty,
build much warmer nests than their
cousins south Of the international line,
and have even taken to building in
hollow trees, a practice not common
among the sparrows either in central
and southern states Or in England.
The sparrows that have gone into
Mexico, on the other hand, have taken
to building light nests, and lead a dis
tinctly subtropical existence.

profitable results. Pigeons r usual.
ly mated at from five to nine months
Of age. There are two methods Of
mating, natural and forced. Under nat.
ural mating the pigeons usually
are allowed to select their own
mates, which is indicated by the
male billing and driving the female.
Experienced breeders, however, are
occasionally deceived by their actions
in selecting sex. In forced mating, as
in natural mating, the breeders should
be selected with a definite object. US.
ing males strong in points in which
the females are weak. It is some.
times advisable to break up the mat
ing between old pigeons and young
birds, although these pairs often give
good results. Where matings produce
undesirable qualities, it is necessary
to remate or Gull out the flock. Con.
tinued close inbreeding is not desira.
BILE and many try to avoid any in.
breeding. Where pigeons are banded,
the female on one foot and the male
on the other, it is fairly easy to reg.
ulate inbreeding.

Monkey Ruled Steamboat.

This is the story Of a monkey Ger
copithecidae, habitat Albany, N. "
that wanted to captain a ship-ani
did, for a little while, the New YOrl,
World states.
When the good ship Berkshire of the
Hudson river night line, left Albany.
recently this particular a%nthropodeaD
quadrumanous mammal passengers.
called him worse names than that-got
loose from his keeper and started the
merriest little party the Berkshire has:
cen In all her voyaging days.
The first thing he did was to seize
four umbrellas from passengers and
do a wild dance on the deck. Then he
or she, as the cas may be-went
down to the engine O and threw
coal at the engineer and flremen, who
retreated. He was chased to the top
deck, whence. he jumped into the river.
A disciple of Professor Garner might
have translated the monkeys last cry
as death before surrender"
Passengers on the Berkshire told the
story. Fl. F. Moss, general traffic man.
ager of the line, said an animal dealer
was bringing three or four monkeys to
this city and n of them escaped.
