OF INTEREST TO CLUB BOYS

Enclose find copy of a circular let
ter / am mailing to Mississippi Club
Boys regarding the short course in
Junior Farm Mechanics to be held
here at the College, August 1920;
the Live International Stock Club
Judging Team that will represent
Mississippi at the international Glib
Judging Contest ,-Ae- be held--at -tssc
great Southeastern Fair, Atlanta,
Ca, October, 1920; also rules gov
erning same, all of which are self
explanatory.
Psychologists tell US that $3.50 of
our knowledge is attained through
the eye; and, that of all the knowl-
edge gained, 800 of that which is
permanently retained is that acquir-
ed through vision. If this is true.
land we are forced to believe it isl
then it will be hard to over-estimate
the value of either the short course
in Junior Farm Mechanics or the
wonderful trip to the English Royal,
were we to be so fortunate as to
carry the winning team or even the
highest scoring individual to Atlanta.
Then the great honor of winning
the trip to the Royal is one that any
state might well feel proud Of. The
County Agent who carries the high
est scoring individual will, of course,
have cause to feel signally honored.
Now, Mississippi yields to no state
when it comes to ability and efficiency
of her county agents, nor will we
concede that the boys of any other
state outrank in either intelligence
or native ability the Club Boys OF
Mississippi.
However, it is now up to us-up to
you-up to me, and every other
member of our great extension or
ganization to defend these claims
Every man must "stand by his gun;
present a solid front work and ad-
vertise if we would win this honor
for ourselves and for Mississippi.
AS indicated in my letter to the
bows, our team will be selected dur
ing the short course here in Aug usG
But in order to facilitate the matter
of selecting the three contestants, 1t
will be necessary for each county
agent to conduct some prelimlr airy
Judging contests in his county and
select team of three of his best boys
to contest for a place on the team
that will represent us at Atlanta
AS you understand, it would be an
impossible task to select team o.
three from 500 of 1000 BOYS We are
expecting to have at the short course
Trusting you will give due public
ty to the short course, as well as the
Live Stock Judging Contest. and that
you will arrange to bring big bunch
of boys to the college in August, am
yours for the "ENGLISH ROYAL or

STRANGE LEGAL
DIVORCE TANGLE

PHILADELPHIA, July 81. OBy Inter

strangest legal tangles in the history of
the courts here is revealed in the d.
vorce granted recently by common pleas
court to Charlotte Lowe Maith from A.
J. Maith
Peggy" Harper Irwin Lever Maith,
former IenkinstOwn beauty, who mar
ried Maith in her third matrimonial
venture before obtaining a divorce from
her second husband, was named as
correspondent.
Testimony was heard before a mas
ter and the divorce filed on statutory
grounds was granted.
II was established that Maith lived
with Charlotte Lowe Maith only two
days after their marriage and then
returned to Mrs. Lever whom he had

Church Membership
SLlIn,ps In HunLdnd;:
Dodge Church Taxes

BERLIN. July 27-So great is the fall
ing off in church membership here that
the Berlin synod of the German Luth-
eran church has voted to take drastic
measures against persons who with
draw, Reports read at recent meet
ing of the synod showed that while in
1915 there were only rs OBJECTIONS, the
number last year reached 5.2S7. AS
many women as men withdrew, most
of them being young, and the majority
members of the social democratic par
ty.
The synod resolved that all those
Withdrawing should be excluded from
the privileges of the church, their chill
dren to be denied baptism and to re-
ceive confirmation instruction only on
certain conditions. To make these
measures effective the synod voted to
introduce cards to show that the hold
ers are bona fide church members.
Escape from church taxation is said
to be the principal reason for the with
drawals Every German citizen is
assumed to be a member of the state
church and is taxed for its upkeep.
Formerly there were few Withdrawals
owing to the difficulties placed in the
way Of those wishing to do so and also
to the social dscredit that accompanied
the act. But under a new law all a
person has to do is to appear before
a designated official and state his de-
sire to give up his church membership
Thereafter he is exempt from the pay
ment of church taxes.

The opponents of American theories

their support had dwindled to 2202.3Si
when the ballots were counted. The
peoples party more than doubled, with
l,345.639 in 1919; they now received g.
606,3l6. The royalistic national party
also gained. with 3,12l.479 a year ago,
they now polled 3.736.77S.
Certainly the inability of the old coal

else. His choice has led him away from

believes has failed. He now wants 20
