WAR ROMANCE has
CLIMAX At SPRINGOALE
Ohio Couple Wed at Home Of Officer
Censor Of Love Letters when the
Groom Was In Europe.

There is romance connected with
the marriage which took place near
Springdale, KY, on Saturday noon
that is interesting. DR.. Charles l.. Gra-
ham at whose country home the we'd
ding ceremony was performed, was in
the medical corps of the American
Army stationed at Chatillion-s-Seine,
France. William E. Kramer, the
groom, was sergeant in this same
medical department.
On the fifteenth of August, 1918,
these men met and became close
friends. 1t so happened that 1t was
the duty of Lieut.. Graham to censor
the letters written. In this way he
became interested in the attachment
which Sergeant Kramer had for q
young Miss Thelma Mae Gerber, Of
Cleveland, Ohio, and therefore secured
| the promise Of the young sergeant thai
II this love affair eliminated in mar
riage, the young couple should come
to his home in Mason county to hav,
he ceremony performed.

ORDER NOW RESTORED
IN the CITY OF BOSTON
State Troops In Complete Control Of
Rioting Situation In Eastern Cltl.

Boston, September 12.-Boston was
orderly today the third day since the
police strike began. The 1000 troops
patroling the city apparently had the
situation in hand.
There was no rioting during the
night. In Jamaica Plains Henry
Grote, 18, was shot and killed by SOL
diers in a raid on dice game.
Whether a general strike of labor
will be called in sympathy with the
striking police was uncertain today.
Delegates of trades unions voted
on the strike question last night, but
the result was not made public.
Labor delegates to the meeting last
night blamed officialdom for the po-
lice strike, several men now in charge
of the situation being singled out fol
criticism.
Following a conference with Mayol
Peters yesterday, in which he made !
plain that striking police may expec
no compromise as far as he is con
cerned, the Executive Committee o
the Central Labor Union was expect
ed to call upon Governor Calvin Cool
idge today.
The governor is in full control O
the situation, in his capacity as com
mander-i -in-chief of the state militia

MAYSVILLIANS GIVEN
GREAT RECEPTION AT
WEST UNION FAIR
Boys Band Highly Compllmented BY
Ruth Law Who Says Its the Best
Boys Band She Ever Heard.

There was an enormous crowd at
the West Union Fair yesterday to
cheer our Boys Band. Over 5000 peo-
pie attended and their attention was
divided between Ruth Law, the ia
nous aviatrix, and our boys. Miss
Law was very enthusiastic about the
youngsters, and listened as attentive
ly as any one in the crowd during
the evening concert. Not only did
she walk over from the hotel to the
Courthouse lawn and shake hands
with the members, and then presented
through Manager Russell an auto
graph photo to each one of them, from
the smallest to the tallest, not for
getting Booster Barbour" and DR..
Smoot. Miss Law, who Is an extreme
ly attractive young lady, very quiet
and modest IN demeanor, said that in
case Manager Russell ever wanted a
letter of recommendation a note to
| the Stratford Hotel, Chicago, would
bring the strongest one she knew how
to write.
The management of the fair were
more than pleased. They supplied the
party from Maysville with a delicious
chicken dinner, and urged that the
band return today. They also asked
that they be booked for a three day
engagement next year, as they consid
cred the service rendered the best they
had ever had. Manager Russell was
told to send in his bill and to name
his own price for this year, and tina
next year they would be glad to rais'
the ante. 1t is no exageration to sa!
that the band gave the best evening
concert they ever played in West I'm
ion. Everything went along withou
hitch, and they played almost con
stantly for an hour to a delighted au
dience which gathered on and aroun'
: the Court House at seven o'clock.
The Maysvillians who accompanie
them were kept busy receiving con
gratulations from admiring Buckeyes
: and as one man said to the writel
: "Such a band is not only boost fo
a town, It is blessing"
1t is unfortunate that more Of Mays
ville's business men do not accompan
the band on its trips. They would b
astonished as we'll as pleased at tn
splendid impression which their ban
makes. They would also be very gra
. ified at the widespread advertisin
which Maysville is getting through he
band. And nothing makes more impre'
sion on the men in the city visited tina
a good bunch OF boosters who kno
- that they have a good thing and al
. willing to tell other people about
The faithful few are about worn o.
: talking-but are more than repai
when they hear what is said about Il

EXTRA HOUR ADDED
TO SCHOOL SChED-
ULE. next MONDAY
Attorney General In Letter to Super
intendent Caplinger Explains His
Recent Opinion and Hour
VIII Be Added to
School Day.

c,tv sunerintendent W. ]. Caplinger
has Just received a communication
from Attorney General Morris explain
ing In detail his recent opinion on the
length of a school day In KENTUCKY
In the letter to Prof Caplinger' the
Attorney General makes 1t plain tha'
all schools in Kentucky, under the
state school laws, are required to have
a minimum of six hours OF actuai
york in a day and as the Maysville
schools at present are only operating
five hours a day, it becomes neces-
sary to change the entire school sche-
dule.
Under the present plan the schools
have been opening at $3.50 a. m ano
having a 80 minute noon, closing roi
the day at 2:1O. Prof Caplinger now
announces that in extending the schoo
day an hour longer the schedule VII
be as follows. School begins at S:l'
A. m. Noon from IL to 12:40 and ina
adjournment for the day at 1850 p. m
This schedule will go into effect OF
next Monday and will be the same IL
all grade schools as we'll as the Hlgl
School.
As there is much work done by tn
students of the schools after schoo
in the evening, the schooI autnorltie
thought 1t best to divide the extr
time between the two sessions than t
add the extra hour to the afternoo
session so that 20 minutes has bee
added to the morning session and 4
minutes added to the afternoon sessio
thus making up the. extra hour rt
ouired under the opinion of the Al
torney General.
1t will be quite while before II
school teachers and students get the
schedules arranged for this extra hot
but by the addition of the hour da
much more work should be accon
plished than in the past under the o.
system.
