AN ANNOUNCEMENT.

We respectfully desire ito make this
simple statement in announcing the
purchase of 90 Clay street which,
after the contemplated repairs and
equipment have been installed will
become the permanent headquarters
of the Spartan Literary and Athletic
Association. In thus seeking to in
crease the efficiency OF this organiza-
ton as social agency in this CON-
mnnity we are actuated by but one
controlling motive and that is to be
able to serve with others wherever
services are needed. With this idea
ever uppcrmost in our minds we shall
assiduously strive to cooperate with
other agencies and to refrain from
duplication in any line Of endcavor.
If at any time during the past we
have apparently wandered into the
by paths Of Inconsistency and lost
sight Of the great purpose to which
we owe our existence, we have not
journeyed thither with contempt for
any prevailing opinions but because
the eXigencies Of the hour permitted
Of no other alternative. We are, there
fore pausing upon this the very TIRES
hold Of greater possibilities to express
our gratitude for the generous sup
port which has attended our efforts
in the past and to submit the future
Of this organization to the sympathet
ic consideration Of progressive and
Intelligent citiZenry. We also desire
to publicly thank Mr.. s. w. Robin
son, Jr., who engineered the transac
ton and Attorney James r.. Carter
whose astute mind provided this as
ISOLATION with every conceivable legal
safeguard.

He told Of the effort to establish

the colorcd people on Shockoe Hill
to have cemetery in the Northern
section OF tho city. He pointed out
the roadway that had been named
after Rev. John Jasper and on this
roadway, the remains Of tho distin-
guished divine now rested. Mr..
Mitchell was applauded and at the
conclusion Of his remarks, Rev. u. ID.
Lewis, d. d., pastor of the Second
Baptist Church was introduced.
Rev. DR.. Lewis proceeded to speak
and at first, he declared that all that
was necessary had been said and
much that he had intended to say
had been spoken.

however and near tho conclusion, it
was seen that he was failing. Per-
sons near to him grasped him as he
slowly sank down and he was carried
inside Of the house. DR.. r. u. Jones
ministered to him and the exercises
proceeded. Rev. S. p. Robinson de-
livered an eloquent address, after
which benediction was announced.
Rev. DR.. Lewis wanted to run his
own car home but it was seen that
his condition would not permit him
so to do. He was carried home,
though, in his own car.

There are four sufficient reasons why
manufacturers should be forbidden to
send out home work and should be pun
ished for violation Of the law.
First, the work is done by the old and

Neither the aged nor children are strong
enough for the work. The bending pos
ture strains the eyes and twists the spine
Numerous cases of spinal curvature begin

Second, there is the danger of COM

way. / have known garments to be car

in homes where there was tuberculosis,
typhus, diphtheria or scarlet fever. Ver-
min are common carriers of disease and
they pass from the finisher's home into the

deadly germs the insect has accumulated.

devoted to the cause of the Entente than
his predecessor
In Holland, Premier Cort van der Lin
den, and his Cabinet have been over
thrown as the result of the recent elections,
and we have been called upon to witness
during the past week the advent to Office
of new administration, under the leader
ship Of NJ. Nolens, the chief of the Roman
Catholic party in the Netherlands. That
for the first time since the reformation a
Roman Catholic should be at the head of
the Government can only be construed as
a manifestation of dissatisfaction by the
nation with the policy pursued until now
by the now defunct Van der Linden Cabi-
net. That policy has been one of IN
friendly neutrality toward the Powers of
the Entente and of altogether unduly
friendly neutrality toward Germany.
Fortunately for Holland, it is appreciated
among the Powers of the Entente that
the people, as distinct from their court
and Government, have been opposed to
that pro- Germanism which has been ram
pant at The Hague.

SHUT ORDER

4 BIG HIT

The new closing order Of
the food administration is
not accepted with any par
ticular favor in this section.
It would work a hardship
On all and injure the produc-
ton of crops, for the farmer
would be forced to quit his
work i'll the day time in or
der to secure his needs.
We cannot see where any
benefit will be derived from
the order were it enforced.
The following dispatch has
been received from Washing
ton, relative to the matter:
"R. F. Bicknell, Idaho's
Food Administrator, in or
dering 8 O'Clock closing in l.
daho, acted on his own re-
eponsibility, and entirely
without instructions from
the National Food Admins
tration as no such general
order had been promulgated,
and that so far as is known
there is no other state in the
union in which a similar or
der has been issued"
Apparently Mr.. Bicknell's
order will not be enforced at
this time at least.
