DIR. EDWARD A. ALDERMAN.

Dr. Edward Anderson Alderman, president of the University of Vir- ginia, was born f1fty-seven years ago today in Wilmington, N. c. While in number of students the famous institution at Charlottesville, Va, ranks among the smaller of Ameri- can unicersities, it has gained under tige and renown in the educational world worthy of it's distinguished or igin. Thomas Jefferson directed that Father of the University of Virginia be inscribed on his tomb
 stone, and the pride which the great desciple of democracy felt in the in- stitution he had founded has been justified by the part it has since play
 ed in the education of young Vir- ginias. It was just 102 years ago that an agitation commenced in Vir- ginia for the establishment of a "cen- tral college near Charlottesville. The sage of Monticello was the leader in the movement, and in 1819, when the university was chartered, he super | intended the erection of the building and was chosen rector. Jefferson | lived to see the university formerly
 established, and it is now it's most
 useful monument. The university is
 only a short distance from Monticello,
 the home of Jefferson Dr. Alder
 man became President of the Un1ver- sity of Virginia fourteen years ago.

BOYS PIGS
TAKE PRIZES

The bit which Uncle Sans pig
clubs are contributing toward win
ming the war is to be seen on the
motion picture screen in the exhibit
sent with the combined Government
displays by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture to the Georgia
State Fair this fall. You can see
there the boys starting to work with
small pig and later taking blue
ribbon at the fair with large hog.
Many of the pig-club pigs have been
prize winners.
In Georgia last season club pigs
won prizes amounting to more than
$4,000 At the Georgia-Florida fair
clIb pigs won two grand champion
ships, one junior championship, and
one reserve championship. Some of
these prizes were won in competition
With swine entered by professional
hog raisers.
If the pig-club members do as well
this year as they did last, they will
produce more than 100000 pounds
of dressed port for market. That will
mean lot of meat for some boys
over in France.
Uncle Sam wants 100000 boys-and
girls, toto enroll as pig club mem
bers as a. part of the great army OF
food producers at home who are help
ing the boys at the front. Every
member of a pig club raises at least
one pig which helps to feed a sol
der. The motion picture is an appeal
to every boy in every farm community
who wants to do bit at home to car
ry on the war.

NO RED CROSS FUNDS
FOR RESEARCH WORK
Opposition of Members Is Cause
Of Decision Made by War
Council.

Criticism having been made of a
Red Gross appropriation for medical
research, including viyIsection, the
Red Cross war council at Washington
announces that no money will be used
for such purposes hereafter and such
money as has been used will be refund
ed to the Red Cross.
In reaching this decision not to use
Red Cross funds for research work,
the war council does not take sides
for or against vivisection, but In view
of the large number of Red Cross
members who object to research work,
it was deemed wise to eliminate such
expenditures.
The original appropriation for re-
search work was made last August
upon recommendation of army medical
officers of high rank who were con-
fronted with new diseases developed
by war conditions and who thought
that experiments upon animals might
produce remedies. 1t was strictly an
emergency war appropriation.
When pronounced opposition to the
appropriation appeared, an individual
came forward with an offer to pay for
the research work out of his own re-
sources and also to reimburse the Red
Cross for past expenditures along 2blS
line, SO that all Red Cross funds viii
be used for relief work as all men,
bers understand and approve 1t.
The sincere convictions Of consid-
cradle body of Red Cross members are
thus respected by the Red Cross with
out in any sense passing judgment
upon the wisdom of research work.
