According to the designs perfected
by the architects it will be the great

Expect Much of Crofts

Williamstown, Mass, May 10
Williams best bet in the New Eng
land intercollegiate track meet Is
Capt. Crofts in the two mile run. A
year ago Crofts finished fourth in the
National intercollegiate meet at Phil
adelphia against the cream of the
country's college two-milers. Crofts,
whose home is in Mt. Vernon, N. Y,
has been a member of the track team
here for four years and during that
time he has won points consistently
in the distance events. In the dual
meets against Union, Wesleyan and
Amherst this spring he has won first
place in the two mile on each occa-
sion.
While Williams has hopes to make
a respectable showing, weakness in
the field events will probably prevent
the team from finishing among the
first few teams. In addition to Capt
Crofts the purple has a capable mile
runner in Coan. four seasons vet
eran. while Miller in the sprints
Richmond in the half, Fasce in the
two mile, Phillips in the hurdles. Nc
Whorter in the 220 and Chaplin in the

Life Of Surgeon
Endangered After
Heroic Operation

LADELPHIA.-Dr. il H. Hart
well, of 1902 North Broad street, 1s
near death at the Anderson hospital
with high fever and droWsiness his
colleagues have been unable to dlspel
as the result of poisoning from a
slight cut of the thumb inflicted IN
the course of an appendicitis opera
ton.
A week ago DR.. Hartwell, of the
staff of the Anderson Hospital, per-
formed an operation at the institu-
ton on a patient whose condition was
unusually serious. The appendix
was infected and the poison was
spreading.
Working rapidly to save the pa
TENTS life, the surgeon slightly cut
his right thumb through the RUBBER
glove.
DR.. Hartwell did not interrupt the
operation to attend to his own IN
Jury, and as a result the life OF his
patient was saved. He realized MS
own danger, but hoped against nope
infection might not result.
He returned to his home, and SAID
nothing to his wife about the accl-
dent. That night he became i'll, and
was taken, at his own dlrectlon' 10

State Entomology
Bureau-Is Not Worried
Over Welfare of Bees

The state bureau of entomology
does not share the alarm felt in
some quarters over the apprehended
determination of the honey bee in
Georgia through the use of calcium
arsenate by farmers in their fight
against the boil weevil. Compare
lively little calcium arsenate is be-
of paste, it is stated, and the bu-
reau has repeatedly urged farmers to
use the insect poison in it's powder
ed form and as. a dust rather than
in the pasty form.
1t has been reported in various
sections that the farmers are using
molasses in the. manufacture of a
calcium arSenate paste for the eX-
termination Of the boil weevil, and
that honey bees are being destroyed
by the poison. -"
The apprehension has been ex-
pressed in some quarters that the
loss of honey bees in considerable
quantity might prove disastrous to
the propagation of melons, squash,
cantaloupes and other vegetables and
fruits that are fortified by the honey
bee.
1--WE have read of these apprehen-
sions in the newspapers at times,
firmation," says the bureau of ento-
mology. LAS a matter of fact bees
do not feed extensively on cotton
blossoms, and relatively little cal
cium arsenate paste is being used in
Georgia. We have and still are dis
couraging the use of the past, urging
instead the busting of the cotton
plants with a calcium arsenate prep
aration."

years old, who have just completed
their sophomore year at Boston uni

ington, fifteen, who will enter Bos-
ton university this fall.
Prof. Sharp says he was convinced
of the value, even necessity, for this
training when he tried out his, class
on Whittier's "SnoWbound" and the
description of a kitchen by Dickens.
He found such words as chores, lit
tered, mows and stanchion, as used
by Whittier, to be Greek" to the
class, and when it came to Dickens
none of them seem able to picture
the kitchen.
'"These experiences with grown-up
boys and girls led me to reason thus:
: don't know what. the possibilities
Of my children -are---what is in them
but it's my business as their ia
ather to giev them the best chance
there is to develop the largest, full
est kind of self-eXpression, with the
elemental, primitive things of life
as background.
80 we came to live here in Hing
ham. Two of my four boys were
born here, and the FOUR of them have
had experience with everything that
lives and grows on the farm and in
the woods hereabouts. They have
gone barefoot, trapped and fished.
Summer and winter they have trav-
eled these hills, making acquaintance
with all forms of animal life. That's
the kind of background, it seems to
me, that every child has a right
educational theory.
eff I had four girls I'd put trous-
ers on them and let them roam these
woods and do the things the boys
do. Most girls are being brought up
in a foolish, futile way. They are
pampered and prinked and iron,
starched until all their individuality
is gone. and they think only of their
wardrobe.
"The dress Of girls today is de-
moralizing and next to indecent. Eve
in her garden went undraped with
out fear of shame, and in the name
Of decency it's time some one ought
to pass the apples round 2gain.'"

FLUTE AND RIFLE

all attempts to kill them by fumiga-

seaman, and were slain by Antonio

someone was trying an elaborate

he reached the after storeroom some
one was playing flute and some one
was singing merrily. Suddenly sew

Without waiting, McGoldrick ran

List of Lobbyists Is
Requested Weekly in
House Res ion

Two interesting resolutions
were introduced in the house of rep
resentatives at Mondays session.
One was by Representative Moye,
of Randolph, requesting the secre-
tary of state to furnish the house
and senate once a week during the
session with a list of the persons
registering in his office in compli-
ance with the lobbying law. The
other was a resolution by Represent
tative Guess, of DeKalb, to change
the date of Memorial day from April
26 to May 80.
The Georgia lobbying law requires
all persons employed to Influence
legislation either for or against
bill to register their names with
the secretary. Of state, and to show
the names Of the parties whom they
represent. The object of Represen-
tative Moye's resolution is to put
the spotlight Of publicity upon all
OF those registering at the present
session, and also to disclose whether
or not any known lobbyists have
neglected to register.
April 26 is Confederate Memorial
day in Georgia. May 80 is national
Memorial day. The resolution by
Representative Guess would change
the date of Memorial day to May
80 and would make it include the
soldiers of the Spanish-American
war, and the World War, as we'll
as the heroes of the Southern Con-
federacy.
Both resolutions were laid on the
table one day in compliance with
the rules of the house
