Overcome.

The promoters of the school
amendment now say that all that
amendment No. 1 means, is that
the Legislature may provide a
different way of electing the
state Superintendent, and that it
may be elected under a non-par-
tisan emblem, may mean election
of a board by the people or any
way seen fit by the legislature.
If this had been the program
in the beginning Amendment
No. would have received much
more supportthan it will receive.
But the real hand was shown
too soon. 1t was announced that
a certain board would be ap-
pointed by the Governor" and
the Governor went so far as to
name the number on the board
and to even name the persons
he would appoint.
The legislature was to have no
voice in the matter at all.
If the amendment carried then
it would be said that the people
had approved the plan announc-
ed and the legislature should
merely confirm the change an

80, of the Galloway's Mill vicini-
ty, this county. both members
of Morgan's command.
Mr.. Pedigo was a member of
General Wolford's cavaly. which
gave Morgan and his Southern
raiders a chase through Ken
lucky and across the Ohio river
into Indiana. Messrs. Johnson
and Stanger rode side by side
through the war, both being
wounded in engagements with
the Federal forces.
The three veterans spent an
hour or more exchanging pleas
ant "reminiscences of the days of
81. and finally their conversation
drifted to the subject of what
they had stolen during the war
in order to ward off starvation.
Mr.. Pedigo admitted having
stolen a goose from a farmer,
had prepared it for the pot and
was hungrily watching it boil
when the bugle sounded the
march and the goose was left be-
hind.
Mr.. Johnson then told about
the members of his company
being so hungry at Munfordville,
KY, that they had killed and de.
voured a Newfoundland puppy,
adding that he did not share in
the feast, but would have done
so if he had had the opportunity.

CHAPTER II.
A Divided COMPANY.

It was not the first time that
Rainey had been on a ship, a sailing
ship, and at sea- Lacking experience
In actual navigation, he was a pretty
handy sailorman for an amateur.
So, as he came out of the grip Of
the drug that had been given him,
slowly, with a brainpan that seemed

Tthrobbed with a dull persistent ache
with a throat that seemed to be coated
with ashes, strangely cOntracted-a
nauseated stomach-eyes that saw
things through a haze-limbs that
ached as if bruised-the sounds that
beat their way through his sluggish
Consciousness were familiar enough to
EQlace him almost instantly.
As he lay there in narrow bunk,
watching the play of light that came
through a portfolio beyond his line of
vision, listening to the low boom of
waves followed by the swash along

He remembered Lund'S exclamation
of Here, what's this ?"-the question
Of a blind man who could not grasp
what was happening-and acquitted
him.
They had deliberately kidnapped him.
s.shanghaied him, because they did not
choose to trust him, because they
thought he might print the story Of
the island treasure beach in his paper,
or babble of it and start rush to the
new strike of which he had seen proof

poke.
What were they going to do with
MIN?
He mistruSted the doctor. The man
Clad drugged him. He was a man
whose profession, where the mind was
warped, belittled life. Captain Simms
had been charged with leaving a blind
man on broken foe. Lund was the
type whose passions left him ruthless.
The crew-they would be bound by
shares in the enterprise, a rough lot,
daring much and caring little for any

He wondered whether anyone had

might take day or two. At the Of

show up to cover his detail, because
he had been steady in his work. But
:: they would not suspect foul play at
first He had no immediate family.
And all this time the Karluk would be
: thrashing north, well out to sea.
Rainey would be front-page won
'>ier for a day, then drop to paragraphs
for a day or so more, and that would
be the end of it.
But they had made him comfortable.
He was not in smelly forecastle, but
in bunk in a cabin that must open
off the main room of the schooner.
Why had they treated him with such
consideration? He dOzed off, for all
mis- wretchedness, exhausted by his
efforts to untangle the snarl. When

NEXT PIcKFoRD PICTURE
A DIFFERENT TYPE


The next Mary Pickford film to be
released by the United Artists will
be Through the Back Door," accord
ing to Hiram Abrams, head of the
organization. Arrangements have
been made by Manager Emory Ry-
lander of the Rylander theater to
have this production as feature for
Thursday and Friday.
This photo-feature, the basic idea
for which was supplied by Little
Mary herself, was prepared for the
sereen by Marion Fairfax, well-known
scenarist, 1t is said to be quite diff
ferent from anything Miss Pickford
has yet attempted in that the story
touches upon an angle of marital re-
lations new to the screen. A wife
brings the spectre of divorce into her
home when she became a petulant,
dissatisfied sort of person through
grief for a child she believes dead.
The problem of restoring happii ess
to this household fall to the lot of
Miss Pickford in one of her inimit
able character roles. There are in
Vulnerable complications, some of
them laughable, others quite tragic
all leading up to denouement logi-
cal and satisfying. Admirers of
Mary Pickford will see her in a little
girl part in this picture, and many
pleasant surprises are in store for
those seeking something new in the
way of comedy.
