 John H. Phillips" pr. N. R. Baker county superintendent of education
 said yesterday, Tt has always seemed
 more appropriate to me to name g school for a person or place rather
 than for a direction.
 There is no significance to a name such as .'Centrar school oi West. school, but there is to Ems. ley school, and would be to Phil lips school.
 Dr. Phillips was certainly a man | of unusual mentality and was not only one of the leading educators oi 1.-the state but of the nation. He had a way of sizing up a situation from an educational standpoint quicker than any man I ever knew.9
 Outing on Lnke Banlxhead "A great many people in Birming ham are not aware of the fine oppor- tuiititS LOl dh OutlIS anu IlSnlH B at Lake Bankhead on the Warrior river," said w.. II. Kettig yesterday. Lake Bankhead is the largest arti- ficial take in the world.
 Tt is full of fish which are rap idly increasing under splendid con ditions for spawning and the natur- al protection afforded. There are quite a number of private camps now located on Lake Bankhead and also number of camps where people can get a nights lodging with boats and other facilities for fishing.
 At the Maxine bridge just 30 miles from Birmingham, is camp now owned by Uncle Jeff Salter This camp was formerly owned by the Southern Outing club. Uncle Jeff has recently fitted up the camp in splen- did style. A fine well which fur nishes good water is within twenty feet of the camp. He has two build ings, one for the men and one for the ladies, and everything is neat and SAS"H' <NHy Oue ueSlTlnS an outing for few days where they can get good fishing. could not do better than go to Uncle Jeffs camp.
 "A beautiful highway recently con structed by the county provides a per feet road and the trip can be made at ordinary speed in an hour and a half. Uncle Jeff is not only a. good host but is also an expert fisherman and hunter and the uninitiated fisher men can get plenty of advice and as- sistance from him.
 The scenery on Lake Bankhead is beautiful and compares favorabry with any other section of the United States. There is no necessity for going "to the Great Lakes Or the Rocky mountains for an outing, as Lake Bankhead furnishes everything of a similar nature right here at home"

Monopolizing.
Prominent operators, including
Thomas T. Brewster, Edward G..

officials Of the United Mine Workers
union, including it's president, John L..
Lewis, and secretary, William Green,
were among the defendants. The Ma
tional Coal association was among the
corporate defendants.
The charge is made by the indict-
ment that at various joint confer
ences, the miners and operators agreed
to be partners in mining and distrib-
uting coal, and that they would aid one
another in plans to increase wages,
increase prices, create shortage and
otherwise limit production and dis
tribution.

Most of the persons indicted as in.
dividuals in the new bill were among
those named as defendants in the in.
dictment returned some time ago
charging violation of the Lever food
and fuel control act by an alleged
conspiracy to curtail production and
force high prices.
During the three year period covered
in the indictment, detailed history
is given by methods of which it is
charged the operators and miners
worked together to restrict the pro.
duction and distribution Of bitumin.
GUS coal.
Ban on Competition Charged.
The charge is made that the agree
ments entered into between the op.
orators and miners provided that coal
should not be sold at any time for a
price that did not yield a profit to
the operator; that increases of wages
to miners should be added to the price
of coal; that competition among op.
orators should be eliminated; that no
coal should be sold below the cost
of production, and that the means Of
increasing cost and production in the
price of coal should be by closing and
keeping idle the mines.
The operators established a uniform
cost accounting system for the opera
tion of the mines, it is charged, and
by agreement employed greater
number Of miners than was reason
ably necessary to operate the mines
properly.

CHICAGO-"Where do you get

found that the identification tag had
been stolen from him four years ago

The victim, slain in fight last night,
was later partly identified as w. Shan

ROADS MUST CUT
RATES, SAYS HARDING
TARIFF MUST BE DECREASED
IN INTEREST OF FARMERS
AND INDUSTRIES.

WASHINGTON, d. C.-Railroad
freight rates have reached the point
where they must be decreased in the
interest OF American farmers and in
dustries, the Harding administration
has definitely decided.
And because OF the growing Serl-
BUSINESS OF the situation the point has
been reached where immediate action
by the government has been outlined.
The first step will be a conference in
Washington between President Hard
ing and the chairmen OF the interstate
commerce commission and the railroad
wage board.
This discussion will be given over
first to a study OF freight tariffs, which
the administration has been informed
and believes are too great for the
traffic to bear Secondly, the general
expenses OF railroads, embracing de
tailed information at the command OF
both the | c. c. and the railroad wage
board, will be studied.
The latest figures compiled by the
American Railroad Association shows
that for the week ending March 70
the loading of revenue freight fell off
10,360 cars as compared with the pre-
vious week year ago. With the ex-
ception of merchandise and miscella-
neous freight there was a decrease III
the shipment of every class of prod
ucts during the week ending March

BANK DIRECTED
BY WOMEN FAILS
PRESIDENT IS FUGITIVE, CAP
ITAL AND SURPLUS GONE.
SHORTAGE OF S50O,OOO.0O.

OMAHA.-Theh first and only bank
in Nebraska to try to operate with
a board of directors composed entirely
of women has just gone to the wall
with its president a fugitive and, &C
cording to state banking officials, with
its capital and surplus dissipated, a
shortage of nearly half a million dol
lars in its accounts and big hole in
the state bank guarantee fund.
Furthermore, the town OF Blair,
Neb., in which the bank was located,
is on the verge Of bankruptcy with
many business men and prominent
farmers of the county in financial
trouble if the receivers of the bank
force collections on the notes in the
bank
Notes signed in blank" and left
to the bank officials to fill out, notes
signed with the names of men long
since dead, frozen" securities which
may be worth their face value in years
to come but upon which nothing can
be realized at present, $150,0O0 OF abb
solutely worthless securities are some
of the things which the bank examin-
ers say they have found in the vaults
of the bank.
Indications, it is said, are that the
women were sign here directors
None OF the women, however, profited
by the reign of lax methods and spec
ulations which is said to have engulf-
ed the affairs of the institution. On
the other hand they have lost not only
every cent they had invested in the
bank, but are called upon by the state
law to pay to the receivers twice
the face value OF their stock holdings
The suspended bank was the Castet-
ter Bank of Blair, Neb. 1t was known
as one of the oldest and most sub
stantial banks in the eastern part OF
the state. The bank was founded near
| ~ so years ago.

Peaceful Life of The
Aran Islands Disturbed
By The General WA
Story Discloses How the Natives Re.
jected Their Freedom Rather
Than Go to England.

If, as it is reported dimly, the war
in Ireland has reached the Aram Is
lands then there is no spot left peace
ful in that ancient kingdom and new
republic. The story says the forces
OF the English crown heard that those
windy western islets harbored men on
the run and went after them, patrol
ing the sea with boats and raiding the
land. Two civilians are said to have
been killed in the mimic battle, three
wounded trying to escape and seven
arrested But only the barest details
got back to Dublin.
Likely enough there were men on the
run here and there among the island
cottages. There have always been.
Didn't John Synge, when he was on
the islands, hear of a. Connaught man
who Killed his father with a blow of
his spade because he was in passion
and who fed to Inishmaan, where
the natives kept him safe from the
police for weeks till they could slip
him off to America? The impulse to
protect the criminal is universal in
the Irish west. Chiefly this is because
the people, who are never criminals
yet always capable OF crime" feel that
man would not do a wrong unless
he were under the influence of an ir-
responsible passion But partly, too,
it is because Justice" is associated
with the English. How much more
than in Synge's day is this the case
tnow-when Justice" is trying to level
/ Ireland under its iron feet, and many
fine young man must have had to
run to Inishmore or Inishmaan or In
isheer! Even in Synge's day the most
( intelligent man on Ihishnaan declar-
/ ed that the police had brought crime
to Aran. The Congested Districts
! Board has done something to modern
lie Ki1leany, but elsewhere the island
population changes very slowly.
A quaint story has lately come to
light about the islands. They were
being used, it says, by the Irish Re
public as place OF internment for its
prisoners, though there is, OF course,
mo Jail there And it seems that when
/ the forces OF the Crown crossed Gal
way Bay from the mainland and OF
Tered these prisoners their freedom
fthey rejected it completely, desiring
rather to stay where they were than
to go to the British Isles whatever.
One sees the seed OF legends in this
story. Pat Dirane, the old story-teller
who made Synge's day delightful, is
dead now, and Michael Greatly Mar
tin McDonagh) has married and come
to America. There will be others, how
ever, to carry on the tradition among
people who will pass from island
to island in rude curaghs OF model
which has served primitive races since
men first went to sea; who still tread
the sand and invade the surfs of their
islands in pampooties of raw cowskin
which are never dry and which are
placed in water at night to keep them
soft for the next day; who make all
the soil they have out OF Scanty treas

Preventative Medicine.

The tendency OF medical science IS
toward preventative measures. 1t is
easier and better to prevent than to
cure Pneumonia, one OF the most
dangerous diseases that medical men
have to contend with, often follows a
cold or attack OF the grip. The cold
prepares the system for the reception
and development OF the pneumonia
germ. The longer the cold hangs on
the greater the danger, Take Cham
berlain's Cough Remedy as soon as
the first indication of a cold appears
so as to get rid OF it with the least
possible delay 1t is folly to risk an
attack OF pneumonia when this rene
dy may be obtained for trifle.
