BIC MEETING THURSDAY NIGHT

A number of persons interested in
the HOpkinsville Fruit Growers AS
sociation met in the Office of the Hop
kinsville Business Mems Association
Thursday night for the purpose OF
completing the organization. The
Office was filled but as a number Of
persons vitality interested could not
be present the election Of board
of directors was postponed till Mon
day afternoon at 2 o'clock, at which
time a stockholders meeting will
be held and directors elected.
All those present Thursday even
ing were much interested and had the
privilege of hearing Sam W. West
brook, L. & N. Agricultural Agent
and Association organizer. Mr.. West
brook spent about an hour talking
to those present, going somewhat in
to the details of the growing and
marketing of strawberries and fruits
and discussing the plan and purpose
of organization and outlining what
may be accomplished by well-manag-
ed association. When the organiza-
tion is once organized and the grow
ing of Strawberries started, Mr.. West
brook will spend considerable time in
this community aiding and assisting
the farmers in getting started right
in his growing of berries and helping
the association in marketing any
thing that is grown.
This movement means much to this
immediate section in view of the fact
that persons OWING small farms can
by careful cultivation, net from
$500 to $500 per acre. There is a
good demanc for berries which can
rot be supplied and growers may

GROWING DEMAND for
EDUCATED YOUNG WOMEN
Scarcity Of Teachers ASerious Problem
And Women are Invading Numer-
Gus Lines of Business, Making
Good on Their Merits,
Brains and Education,

ways hardest to fill and pay the high
est salaries.
Women's schools all over the coun-
try are overflowing with ambitious
young women who want to qualify
themselves for the great work. The
young woman who is not well educat-
ed is not only disqualified as teach
er, but she is handicapped in many
other lines of work, where clerical
knowledge, good spelling, mathemat-
ical proficiency and business training
are essentials.
Here in Hopkinsville is an old es-
tablished institution of learning that,
under a new management, is under
taking as standard junior college to
take part in educating young women
in sucf lines of study as will enable
them tQ enter standard colleges and
universities and secure degrees en-
titling them to highest salaries. Two
Of the three principals of the Public
Schools were educated in Bethel Wo-
mans College and are qualified to
hold similar positions anywhere.
Bethel will open the fall session on
September 8, with the largest num-
Der of boarding pupils in its history.
A new dormitory with rooms for 48
girls is nearing completion and many
of the rooms are already taken. The
main building with rooms for 40
girls is already nearly filled with re-
turning pupils and those making ear
ly reservations.
The Board Of Trustees take pleas
ure in announcing that in Prof. j. W.
Gaines, they have every assurance
that they have secured the very man
for the work of building up a great
school, who comes with recommen-
dation of being one of the ablest ed
ucators in the South. DR.. Gaines,
the new President of Bethel arrived
the first of the week and is actively
at work preparing for the biggest
opening Bethel Woman's College has
had in the 65 years of its history.

From every part of the country re-
ports come of the growing scarcity
of teachers. The situation is becom-
ing alarming in some states and sal
aries are being raised and energetic
steps have been taken to keep teach
ers from quitting the school rooms
to go into other lines of business.
One of the causes assigned is that
so many male teachers went into the
military service and left vacancies
that could not be filled by other men.
Another cause is the increased stand
ard requirements, disqualifying large
numbers of teachers without college
educations.
The shortage of teachers has Sc
rious handicapped the Hopkinsville
Public Schools, there being four or
five vacancies untitled now with the
opening of school only week off.
This condition has caused material
advances in the salaries paid teach
ers and further advances are in i'm
mediate prospect if qualified teach
ers are to be secured from other lines
of business, to supply the urgent need
of the hour.
1t has long been the case that
nine-tenths of the teachers have been
women. Teaching is essentially wo-
mans work and the demand for teach
ers at high salaries is now enabling
many young women to secure more
lucrative positions than those held
by their fathers. 1t has brought to
every educated young woman great
possibilities for entrance into wider
field of usefulness. In some Of the
western states salaries have already
bounded upwards to a point higher
than paid in business lines. The in
creases in the eastern states are
steady and every year making
the question of higher education a
more vital one with young women
who desire to fit themselves for hold
ing the best positions in educational
lines, for the higher grades are al

Notice To The Public.

Owing to an inadequate bed space
for the accommodation of rapidly
increasing patronage at the Jennie
Stuart Memorial Hospital, the visit
ing regulations are being rigidly en-
forced. 1t has been necessary to
utilize one of the reception rooms
as a ward, and the administration
urges the public to cooperate in the
endeavor to properly conduct the hos
pital, for the comfort of the patients,
rather than the convenience of visi-
tors.
VISITING HOURS: 3 to 4:30
and Z to $3.50 p. m.
The need of nurses at present is
alarming, and unless this condition
is relieved in some way, we will be
able to continue the rapid progress
our hospital has made since the incor-
poration, five year ago.
We would urge our public friends
and all who are interested in public
welfare, to establish individually,
committees for the recruiting of nur-
ses.
This problem is serious one; con-
fronting not only our hospital, but
our community. Please help us.

BERT BLAKEMoRE, AFTER HE.
RoIc FOREIGN SERVICE
DIES WEDNESDAY
WORE THREE STARS OF HONOR
Body Will Arrive Here Tomorrow
For Interment, In Charge of
His Brother, NevilI.

Bertram Blakemore, who left here
Monday for Detroit in search of en-
ployment, died very suddenly in that
city Thursday morning. News came
from his friend, Gilson Warfeld.
with whom he was rooming, that
when they went to bed Wednesday
night, Mr.. Blakemore was seemingly
in his usual good health, but when he
was called the next morning it was
found that he was dead in bed, APP
parently from heart failure.
His brother, Nevill Blakemore, has
gone to Detroit to take charge of the
body which will be brought back
here Sunday.
Bert Blakemore was 32 years of
age and sterling young man of fine
prospects. He had just returned
home from France and was apparent
ly in the best of health.
He was one Of the first men from
the county to enlist joining the Reg
ulars soon after war was declared. He
did not remain long in the States
but was sent to France with his out
fit, among the first troops to go over.
His service record was one to be
proud Of. He fought on four fronts
and in many Of the bloodiest battles
of the war. He saw service at Cha
teau Thierry, where his regiment was
in support Of the marines in that
memorable engagement and member
of Co. B, of the First Pioneer Regi-
ment was with the first American
troops to cross the Rhine.
After the armistice Mr.. Blakemore
was with the army of occupation at
Coblenz, Germany.
He is survived by his parents, Mr..

RESOLUTION PROVIDING RESER-
VATIoNs ON TREATY is
INTRODUCED.
WOULD CAUSE NO DELAYING
Republicans Whose Reservations 1t
Embodies Declare They Must
Go Into Treaty.

Washington, Aug. 21.-The first
open move for a compromise in the
league of nations fight came from
administration quarters yesterday
embraced in a proposal that the Sem
ate adopt reservations but that they
be kept apart from the actual ratifi-
cation of the treaty.
The overture met with no immed-
late success on the Republican side
of the chamber, senators of the Re-.
publican reservation group declaring
they could not recede from their po-
sition that to be effective the reser-
vations must go into the ratification
itself.
Senator Pittman of Nevada, de-
mocratic member of the foreign rela-
tions committee, presented the COM
promised proposal in the form of
resolution embodying in effect the
four reservations agreed on by seven
Republican senators and declaring
them to constitute the senate's under
standing of the disputed points in the
covenant.
In the Republican draft, however,
it is expressly provided that the res
ervation "be made part of the
treaty by the instrument of ratifca-
tion" a proviso which Senator Nc
Nary of Oregon and others of the
group of seven Republicans said they
considered absolutely necessary if
enough Republican votes are to be
gained to secure ratification of the
treaty.
To overcome this objection, Sena-
tor Pittman proposed in a speech in
the Senate that the resolution be
adopted at once and be submitted to
the other powers who will be repre-
sented on the league council. A gen.
eral debate developed during which
Senator Borah and others took ex-
ception with President Wilson's dis
tinctions between moral and legal
obligations under the covent as ex-
pressed in the whitehouse conference
between the president and the for
eign relations committee.
