in American public schools. interested

this city. with Mrs. Harriet P. Thomas
as secretary. DR.. Dudley A. Sargent
Of Harvard has drafted a model" state
bill, which is to be urged for adop-
ton by the states.
Members of Committee.

John Dewey of Columbia University, J.
Y. Joyner. state superintendent of pub
lie instruction, North Carolina; Mrs.
Ella Flagg Young. former superintend-
ent of schools in Chicago; President
David B. johnson Of the Winthrop Nor

Outline of Purpose.
In it's announcement the committee
says, in part:
1--WE believe that the time has come
when the public schools can. and should.
enter deliberately and purposely upon
definite plan for the preparation OF
our youth, physically, for the exigen-
cies Of life and for all the demands OF
citizenship. We need to spend more
money and more time upon physical
training intended to develop the body
SO that both boys and girls may be
prepared equally for the pursuits Of
peace or the vicissitudes Of war"
The bill is officially entitled "A bill
to upbuild national vitality through
the establishment of physical educa-
ton and training in the public schools
of the state" 1t is described as ten
tative draft which may be easily modi-
fed to meet the varying financial and
educational conditions in the different
states. Its proponents assert that they
are not proposing to impose an "elab-
crate and expensive machinery" upon
any state-merely to indicate the way
to begin in the belief that public opin-
ion has now been educated to the point
where it will support physical training
in the schools, especially when that
training is shorn Of military features.

Mrs. 1. S. Mason, or near Buford,
has clothed us with authority TO an
nounce her candidacy for the Repub-
lican nomination for Superintendent
of Schools of Ohio county and her
name appears in the announcement
column this week. For several years
Mrs. Mason has been prominent as a
teacher in the schools OF the coGn-
ty and is well qualified for the po-
sition she seeks. She feels that the
law permitting ladies to vote for
county superintendent both in the
primary and final election will aid
her greatly. Mrs. Mason is the first
lady TO run for Office in Ohio couny
for several years, and is confident
of being the first of her sex to serve

Republican nomination for Assessor
of Ohio county is Mr.. ID. e. Ward.
of Hartford Route 8. Mr.. Ward, it
will be remembered, was the nomi-
nee for this Office four years ago,
meeting with defeat by small ma
jority in the final election. He
feels that he was handicapped in that
campaign by conditions that could
not be overcome by himself and asks
that the voters of his party consid-
er that fact in choosing their candi-
date for Assessor in August.

Mr.. Silas Stevens, OF Beaver Dam,
has tossed his hat into the ring for
County Judge, and his announcement
appears this week. Mr.. Stevens has
been faithful G. o. p. worker in
this county many years, having made
the race for Representative when
the county was in the Democratic
ranks. He was defeated by only a
handful of votes in spite of the dis
advantage. He was born and raised
in Ohio county and has made a sue
success at farming. He has had
considerable legal experience and is
well qualified for the County Judg-
ship. If nominated we predict vic
tory for Mr.. Stevens in November
and a clever administration will fol-

, w. e. Ellis C Bro, produce mer
chants, are feeding a large flock of
ducks in their poultry yards on
Rough River. The wire fence of
their compartment is constructed i'm
such a manner that the beach is op-
EN- and a plunge may be taken at any
hour OF the day. Mr.. w. Il. Ellis,
head of the firm. walked down TO the
river the other day for look at his
ducks. For few minutes he stood
near the water watching their naval
maneuvers. He did not know, how
ever, that his feet contained a Zep-
pelin and he rubbed his eyes and won-
dered when suddenly. and without
warning, one of the fattest, most
choice fowls arose and departed for
other waters. When Mr.. Ellis recov-
cred from the surprise he realized
that the fleeing duck had not gone
wild but had always been of the un-
tame species. The poultry yard is
near the bridge where pedestrians
pass continuously and the venture
some spirit displayed by the wild
nallard is remarkable He was
probably attracted to the Ellis beach

ady ducks.

WASHINGTON, d. c., July H.
Greece is now at war with all the
central powers and is fairly and to
certainty lined up with the Allies,
Yesterday she declared herself to be
a full fledged belligerent and ready
and anxious to take up her share Of
the burdens Of the war lending faith.
full and effective aid to the forces
Of democracy against autocracy.
Plans of Greece for an aggressive
part in the war include the placing
In the field Of an army of not less
than 900, 700 men and of this it is in
tended to send a force Of fully 1000
to join the Allied forces at Salonfki
where they will be Of the greatest
use in the great struggle. Mobiliza-
ton is expected to be short and a
speedy movement to the front is an
ticipated since preparations have
been going on in anticipation Of the
decision Of yesterday.
The reports further state that
Greece is likely to send a war mis-

HILO GETS BUSY
ON VOLCANO ROAD
Especial Bulletin corrsspondsncs.)


HILO, Hawaii, July Is. - At the
meeting Of the board Of trade Of Hilo
Tuesday, it was decided to appoint a
committee of nine to take up the mat
ter of the construction of the concrete
road from Four Miles, Olaa, towards
the Volcano and as far as it will go
for the money, 100000, which was
appropriated by the last legislature.
The course the road should take Is
the principal bone of contention and
the committee which has been appoint.
ed by President 6. H. Wears will have
that matter to attend to. The com.
mittee is as follows: John T. Moir,
John A. Scott, Henry J. Lyman,
George Humphreys representing Won
Hamm-Young Company, C. e. Wright,
d. McH. Forbes, D. s. Bowman, A. j.
Williamson and P. T. Phillips. The
automobile firms, the shipping firms,
the plantations and the Puma people
ere represented on the committee.
The relocation Of the road may be
thought advisable, as there are many
turns and sharp grades in the present
thoroughfare. II is realized that to
simply use the present road as a base
and construct a concrete bed on top
Of IL would be folly.
