HOOD LOSES FIRST BoY

Hood River, Or, Aug. S.-(Spe-
cial.) -The body Of Lisutenant W.
L. Carson, son Of Mr.. and Mrs. j.
X. Carson, will be brought here from
Fort Sill, Okla, where he was killed
yesterday in an aeroplane accident
The father today received message
from another son, Lieutenant Joe X
Carson, Jr., an instructor at an Of
ficers traiing school at Camp Joseph
f. Johnston, Fla, announcing he will
be here to attend his brothers fus.
eral. Another brother, Corporal John
Carson, Of Fort Worden, Wash, also
will be home for the service.
Lieutenant Carson, aged "a years,
was one of the most beloved young
men in this vicinity and made a
steady progress, following his enlist
ment early last year. Death, how
ever, ended his ambition Of getting
into actual battle against the Huns.
While here on furlough last
month, he expressed hope Of being
sent TO France soon.,
''He was engaged in a hazardous
occupation" said the father today,
"and we had tired to prepare our
selves for just such a shock. But
parents can't do that. We grieve.
His mother is heartbroken. but we
are proud in the knowledge that our
first child given in death answered
his country's call"
The news of the young officers
death has cast a pail Of grief over the
community.
Lieutenant Carson, who at the
time of his enlistment, was engaged
in electrical work at Eugene, was an
inventive genius. and several appli-
ances for airplane safety, invented
by him, had been adopted by the fly
ing service.
The above is taken from a Hood
River, Oregon, paper. "A Friend
adds the following: at. Carson, who
has lived in Hood River FOR the past
IA years and whom we are so proud
to call our boy was born and spent
his first ten years of life at Huston
vile, and he had never forgotten his
old Kentucky home
"The body Of Lieutenant Carson
will be brought to Hood River by his
friend Captain Neville, and will be
buried with military honors at this
place August 9TH"

Announcements by Prof. Turnip-
seed.
Under the caption of NEED of a
Daily Program" Prof. Bradner de-
monstrated in a very satisfactory way
that it was little less than a calamity
for any teacher to try to teach a sin
gle day without having one. From
the mouths of those present he show
ed a number of reasons why every
teacher should have one and why no
teacher should try to teach without
one.
Fifty-five enrolled and about fifty
present.
1890 Miss Eleanor Wallace in a
very convincing way showed us Our
Part in Eliminating Illiteracy" and it
is now up to us to do our part She
| gave history of the Illiteracy Com
mission, together with what they were
expected to accomplish.
Kentucky is expected to teach 3d.
900 illiterates, Mason county 200.
Every man, woman and child in the
county who is qualified to do so is
/ asked to teach at least one illiterate
person before January 1, 1919. For
/ further local information confer with
Mr. Turnipseed or Miss Wallace.
Geography was discussed by w. ].
Caplinger. Emphasized the teaching
of the essentials of geography and the
eliminating of the non-essentials
Used so as to train the judgment
rather than the memory. Teach phil
osophy of geography even at the ex-
pense of some of the facts. The why
rather than the what.
Mr.. Bradner's discussions of "Ex'
aminations" as test for promoters
was one of the most satisfactory the
writer has heard in institute work.
| Wednesday Afternoon
| Announcements by Superintendent
Turnipseed.
Public speaking and physical cul
ture was handled by Mr.. Bradne
from a theoretical and practica
standpoint and if his hearers do no
greatly profit from this discussion
there certainly must be something
wrong with them.
Miss Bessie Martins demonstration
with a class of live boys and girl
showed just exactly how she get'
such satisfactory results in teachini
beginners reading.
Prof. W. p. King delivered the ad
dress to class of about twenty-five
boys and fifty girls, graduates of the
eighth grade in the county schools. II
a few we'll chosen remarks hi
charged their parents to try to real
ize as fully as possible the monoto'
nous times in which they were living
and the very great demands for eff
fcient service that would be demand
ed of the exigencies of the times just
l ahead of us.
Mr.. Turnipseed followed with some
very timely admonition and advice to
the graduates to have for their motto
Sand, sense and service"
Mr.. Turnipseed then presented the
certificates of graduation and after
singing one verse of "The Star Span
gled Banner" the institute was dis
missed with prayer by Brother Stahl
