Ruling Made In
Big Kentucky Case

WASHINGTON, Dec. 12. The
Kentucky Law requiring corpora
tons to register before doing bust
ness in that state cannot apply TO Z
corporation engaged in interstate
commerce. the Supreme court held
in q decision handed down today.
The case in an appeal brought by
the DahukeWalker Milling com
pany. OF Tennessee. against c. 7.
Bondurant, of Kentucky. The
courts held that the milling COM.
pany. not having registered, could
not lawfully conduct business i'll
tho state and therefore could not
use the courts to compel B%ondurant
TO comply with his call. The com
pany commended that the contract
related to Interstate commerce, and
vas rot subject to state laws.
The Supreme court held that the
state courts should have treated
tho transaction as one in Interstate
commerce and should have held
that the statute. as applied to It
was void.

SCHOOLING

OSl Americans get their
1F1 schooling between the ages Of
6 and Is, says Prof. Dallas L.
Sharp, Of Boston University.
That is true. But most of US do
not begin to get our real education
until We leave school, Experience
remains tho greatest teacher.
When a school graduate strikes
out in the world for himself. one of
the FIRST things he has to do is IN
learn much of what he has been
taught. The delusion that takes
most time to get out of the head is
youths inflated conception of the
possibilities of success.
