which went overwhelmingly in favor of returning to Denmark.
 The second zone has been much more thoroughly Germanized than the zone to it's north, and the third or southern zone, where the request has been made by the Danes that no plebiscite be held, has pronounced German population.
 That the result of the voting will be accepted by the allies who insist ed upon self determination for that province seems probable. Naturally Denmark win be disappointed but it is to be appreciated that it is far preferable that 1t should find out the attitude of the people of that zone in such a manner than to have had ii awarded to Denmark by the allies an6 then be obliged to meet the trouble | that such a strong anti Danish senti- ment would cause.

A. WALTON PEARSON.

It is with a keen sense of the great loss it has suffered that The Bulletin today records the death of it's editor, A. Walton Pearson, whose term of service in this office covered period of more than forty years, of which much more than half was as editor in chief.
 He was one of the last of the old school whose editorial work was re- lnforced by the hard school of ex- perience as a practical printer in the olden days and in the equally trying task of running his own newspaper, but through it all there was that con- stancy and tenacity in the perform ance of duty that was unwavering. His zeal and enthusiasm lost none of It's vigor as years passed. There was that same endless capacity for work, that same enterprising effort to maintain high standards and that same spirit of fairness and thorough ness that characterized his many years. He set a pace that was not easy to follow but one that has been an ineffaceable inspiration and guide to many.
 His was a thoroughly trained and well stored mind. His opinions were carefully formed and firmly held ant his convictions were backed by { clear vision and a broad spirit of jus tice. Though deeply. interested il everything that pertained to civic up lift. and believing that whatever wa worth doing was worth doing well his activity in public matters wa confined to the part his work playe, therein. He sought to avoid en tangling alliances and was an exam pie of devotion to whatever outsid study he turned. And there was tha same loyalty to friends. There wa always that friendly smile and tn cordial and humorous greeting. Hi friendships were many and lasting.
 His active career and his sturd character have left their monument, good. true and able man has gon to his reward. but his influence an his memory will long remain.

SCHOOL HOUSE FIRES.

Newport has gone through. the ex- perience of losing a high school build ing, including a valuable reference library. The destruction of the four story brick structure which was at tended by 800 pupils. means loss of s2O0, ,000 to say nothing of the ineon- venience that is going to be. caused by the decreased. facilities. A bond is- sue of over half million had just been approved by the state for an ad- dition to the building. It comes in time to mean the early replacement of the high school but in all proba- bility had the addition been com pleted that too would have been swept away by the fire that destroyed the building.
 In this instance as is too often the case in school fires, the cause cen tered about the heating apparatu. and while it was a Dit of good for tune that it occurred while no pupils were in the building it should not fai l to impress upon that city the import ance of so constructing it's health: plants that institutions of that kinC will be safeguarded against fire. ! It is more important to secure tn prevention of such disastrous fires b. proper construction, then :, it is t maintain expensive fire department to endeavor to extinguish fires afte they are started. What happened in Newport is on1,
 what has repeatedly happened else

MT. Editor: For the. benefit, of the critic of Judge Barnes speech List ener, who used the words quoted above. in an effort to defend himself, flies off at 8 tangent and tries to jus tify his statement by presuming something which he knows nothing about Whether or not pray (and possibly might pray more than he does) has nothing to do with the question raised.
 In the 18th century evidently peo- pie voted as they prayer; they used
 to cut, each others head off because they prayed differently. Those delu-
