MORRIS Will CASE
ENDS IN COMPROMISE

Contest of the will of the late Henry
F. Morris, Jackson township farmer,
was compromised when the case was
called for trial IN the Henry county
circuit court at Newcastle, where IL
had been taken on change of venue
from the Wayne circuit court. The
estate is valued at $4,000 and under
the terms of the compromise the con
testant, Joseph Morris, who had been
disinherited by mis- father, Henry F
Morris, receives $1,000.
Defendants to the action brought by
Morris were his stepmother, Mrs. Mat
tie M. Abbott, second wife of Henry
Morris, and his two stepsisters, Mary
D. Morris and Maggie May Morris
both minors.
Under the terms of the will left by
Henry Morris, the entire estate was
left to his second wife and the two
children by the second marriage. 1,
is stated that the father and son were
not on good terms. At the time of his
fathers death, over three years ago
Joseph Morris was serving in the
United States army. Had this not
been the case his suit to contest the
will would have been invalid owing tc
the fact that it was filed after the
period prescribed in the statue of limi
tations had expired. This statute pro
vides that the limitation period for en-
tering contests against wills does not
extend to men serving in the army OF
navy of the United States.
Joseph Morris contended that his
father was of unsound mind at the
time the will was made.

Today S Talk
ERNEATH
BY George Matthew Adams


Great truth is very deeply laid. 1t is
falsity that fastens its fangs upon the
surface of things.
That is one reason why most people
are more prone to find fault and
criticize than to praise.
A mans faults are usually carried
around on his sleeve, whereas his
virtues are stored in his heart.
underneath the earth-where much
toll and digging is necessary to find
them-are the precious metals and
stones so significant Of the art of the
great Creator
The strength Of the mighty oak is
Embedded in all directions deeply in
the ground.
The best and finest in any man or
woman is rarely expressed. But it
terminates day and night.
The cross and unkind word doesn't
hurt the air any-but when it sinks
into somebody's heart, it starts its
hurt.
Be tolerant. Give people credit for
what you can't see in them on the
surface. Deep water moves quietly
with a sort of animate understanding.
Al people, also, are much better and
greater than they appear.
ITrderne ath, folks are real. Under
meath, they are men and women with
stripped intentions that are clean and
right
So try to give credit where credit
is due.

You please tell me how people started
the well-nigh universal custom of
shaking hands when they meet or
part?-Like most of our customs, it
comes down from the misty past. In
the times when life was less secure
than now, and most everybody carried
a sword. at any rate everybody who
laid claims to being a gentleman. it
was the custom when meeting an
other to show that there was no
treachery by offering each the weapon
hand, free from the weapon. To hold
back the hand was equivalent to a
challenge to combat. This habit be-
came so fixed that long after swords
ceased to be worn men still offered
the weapon hand to friends and de-
clined to do so to enemies. Among
savages who never carried a sword
the habit of hand shaking is un-
known. and it affords them the great
est amusement to see white men
salute each other in that way.

Visit the High School Tonight

Members of the school system of Richmond
urge citizens to attend the public sessions of the
high school which will be conducted there to-
night for the purpose of acquaintng the city with
the practical operation of the institution
Seldom, indeed, does the citizenship have an
opportunity to watch school at work and to see
teachers instructing the youth in the branches of
learning. Equally interesting is study of the
system under which a school of the proportions
of the high school is managed.
Parents for the most part have vague no.
ton of school affairs. They satisfied if their
children make passing grades and are promoted
from class to class until they emerge from the
grades into high school and finally conclude their
work in the public schools.
How many parents take serious counsel with
their children regarding the selection of studies
they make and of the fitness of the branches for
the vocation which they will follow through life ?
How many follow the child grade by grade, and
year by year, watching carefully their educa-
tional progress and noting how they are prepar-
ing themselves for the real test of life?
Very few. They look upon the teacher as
their vicarious substitute and entrust the childs
welfare into their hands. Should child fail to
make passing grade, the teacher usually gets
the blame while the parent forgets that interest
on his part might have prevented the setback to
the child's schooling.
If every parent realized that the teacher is
doing the work that he cannot do, and as result
would cooperate with the teacher in studying the
child and suggesting means of promoting the
chd's interest in his school work, the task of the
