St Augustine, Feb. 22.-Harding
completed his cabinet today by the
virtual selection of Edwin DENLY,
Detroit, as secretary Of the navy.
The choice was the first big sur
prise among the cabinet selections.
He is an attorney, former congress-
man and served as an enlisted man
In the navy and marine corps.
Other cabinet selections previous
ly regarded as virtually cetrain and
now finally in the class of certain
ties are: VIII H. Hays Of Indiana,
postmaster general; John w. Weeks,
Massachusetts, secretary Of war;
basis Of the school curriculum and
tary of treasury; Henry wallace.
Iowa, secretary Of agriculture and
A. B. Fall New Mexico, secretary Of
the interior.
st. Augustine, Feb. 22.-Herbert
Hoover of California and James J.
Davis Of Pennsylvania, are virtual
ly chosen for membership in the
Hadring cabinet, leaving. upen but
one place which seems certain to 60
to a dark horse. A tentative offer
Of the portfolio of commerce Is un-
derstood to have been made to Hoov-
er and the general expectation is he
will accept. Davis, former steel
worker and now banker, is to be Sec
retary of labor IL the cabinet slate
goes through as 1t now stands. With
these two places out OF the way only
the secretaryship Of the navy re-
mains to be filed. To this Harding
gave most of his time today and 1t
is indicated that chances are less
favorable for those publicly men
toned for the place.

K. U. HAS REAL dLEE CLUB
Concert at High School Should Have
Had Larger Audience

The artistic work Of the X. U.
Mems Glee club, under the direc-
ton of Prof. F. p. Kendrie, which
appeared in concert at the high
school auditorium Tuesday night
was deserving Of larger audience
than was present. There were
many trained voices In the chorus
which was balanced and had a VI
brant pure tone. The program was
well chosen and the singing through
out was notable for its fine shading
and phrasing and the clear enuncia-
ton Of words.
Prof. Kendfe's violin solo, the
allegro movement from the Seventh
Concerto by de BerfOt displayed an
exquisite smpothness and delicacy
Of tone. He received warm applause
and responded with an encore as did
each of the sOloists.
Elmer Olsson, pianist, showed
rare ability as an accOmpanist and
was also received with enthusiasm.

HIGH
SCHOOL BILL
LED BY KYLE
Would Give Counties a
Chance to Vote on
Continuing Plan

Topeka, Feb. 22.-The bill which
would blaze the trail for the easy
abolition Of county high schools was
the object Of fiery debate in the
senate yesterday afternoon. 1t Is
one Of the three important bills In.
troduced by the educational commit.
tee, Of which Senator johnson, OF
Brown, is chairman. He and Sena-
tor Kyle were its strongest defend
ers. The opposing froces ran into
deadlock and finally decided to let
the bill go over until tomorrow on
special orders.
Provisions Of the bill are that
when one-third Of the electors Of a
county petition the county commits
siOners to organize or discontinue a
county high school an election shall
be called by the county commits
sioners to decide the proposition.
Favored by the Towns
AS the law now stands, county
high schools are favored by rural
districts and the towns in which
county high schools are located \and
are fought by cities that contribute
their share Of the tax levy to their
maintenance in addition to keeping
up their own high schools.
Three other bills on the same pro-
position are in the senate either in
committee or on the calendar. One
was reported out Of the committee
yesterday with recommendations for
passage.
Senator Kyle led the fight for the
bill with the author, Senator John
son, Of Brown, chairman of the edu-
cational committee. Their plea was
in behalf Of the small counties in
which the rural districts patronized
the county high schools very little on
account Of the increasing organiza-
tion Of rural high schools.
Farm Commission Plan
The committee on reorganization
of the agricultural board has its re-
port ready.
The agricultural commission, or
senate, would be composed Of one
representative Of every farmers or
ganization in the state, such as the
state board Of agriculture, the State
Grange, the Farm Bureau, the Farm
ers' union, the Dairymen's associa-
tion and the State Livestock asso-
citation.
A commissioner Of agriculture
would be appointed by governor with
the consent and approval Of two
thirds of this agricultural senate.
This commissioner would have au-
thority to appoint state grain in
spector, sanitary livestock inspec-
tor, state entomologist and all the
other subordinate heads, with the
approval of the agricultural senate.

LICENSE WOMEN PREACHERS
A Kansas M. e. Church District Re
moves the Ban

Hutchinson, Feb. 18.-For the
first time in the history Of the
Hutchinson district Of the Methodist
Episcopal church conference, women
have been granted local preaching
licenses. This action was taken at
the conference now in session at
Lyons. The two women to whom
this distinction was granted were
Mrs. J. g. Johnston of Mount
Hope, and Mrs. J. N. Alexander Of
Haven, whose husbands are serving
at resnective towns. Both have been
and assisting their hus-
bands for years but the church laws
have hitherto barred them from
holding licenses.

WOULD SUPERVISE PLAY
Rev. e. A. Blackman Suggests Pool
Table and Dance Floor in Church

Rev. e. A. BIacleman Suggests Pool
Table and Dance Floor in Church
The Rev. Earl Blackman Of Chan
ute would add pool tables to church
gymnasium, he informed gather
ing Of men at the Presbyterian
church in Salina recently. The
Chanute pastor was the guest Of the
mems organization and delivered an
address on his ideas in church re-
form which, in his view, are de-
manded by present day conditions.
Blackman won the title Of "the fight
ing parson" in the A. Il. F. by his
prowess as a boxer and as referee
Of boxing bouts.
Questioned by one Of his hearers: ::
"Would you have pool tables In
gymnasium in the basement of the
church ?" the Chanute minister an
swered:
"I would. I'd go one step further,
also, and have a dance hall there.
The dance is with us just as 1t al
ways has been and we might as well
deal with 1t accordingly. The young
people-your young people in this
church or in any other church-are
going to dance and they had better
be doing it under your supervision
than down town in some public hall
where every, Tom, Dick and Harry
can attend if he wants to. I believe
that the ministers would help the
dance more by attending it and see
ing that the dance is kept decent
and made purely a pastime than
they do by condemning it and try
ing to get all the young people to
quit dancing"
The Rev. Mr.. Blackman denounc-
ed automobile riding as more detri-
mental to the morals Of young people
than the dance hall.

BOY IS GIVEN HOME
Mr.. and Mrs. Ira Hsas Will Take
Lee 0rahart

Five homes were opened to little
Lee Graham this week when 1t be-
came known that the probate court
was seeking a family In which the
child could be placed. rat the hear
ing before the probate Judge and
county attorney It was decided that
he be given into the care OF Mr.
and Mrs. Ira Haas, farmers living
near Detroit. AZ
Mr.. and Mrs. Haas have two lit
tie children of their owh but they
are anxious to give a home to the
orphaned boy. Though tsmall for
his 13 years, the boy is unusually
bright. During the trying ordeal OF
the afternoon he kept back tears
that were near the surface. which
was more than some Of those about
him were able to do.

Similar development was effected
in the consolidation plan, with the
exception that the governor says he
hopes it will make its report at this
session. There is no secret at the
state house to the fact that the live
stock department, Of which Joe
Mercer is the head, opposes the plan
vigorously. Addressing the live
stock convention last week, in Sa-
lima, Commissioner Mercer. who is
secretary Of the Kansas Livestock
Association, declared that the live
stock interests were too great to be
merged into general agricultural
department.

Law MAKERS
CLEAN SLATE
OF MANY Bills
Double Court Settled,
Children's Code Gets
No Favor
Associated Pressl

Topeka, Feb. 21.-With tha-Ih
providing fer women's dormitOries al
the state educational institutions
passed by the senate and recon-
mended for passage by the two
house committees to which it was
referred, its sponsors feel certain Of
its final passage. This bill has been
advocated as "the women's bill" 1t
is said to have the endorsement Of
clubs representing more than 100, 900
Kansas women. More women have
been lobbying in its behalf than for
any other measure.
The measure provides a $1,000
900 bond issue for erection Of dor
mitories at the University Of Kan
.sas ($30O,000). Kansas State Agri-
cultural College ($225,0O0), En-
poria Normal ($187, 10000, Pittsburg
Normal $187,5OO), and Hays Normal
$1O0,O0O). The bonds are to be
issued serially and bear 5 per cent
interest. For the retirement of these
bonds tax not to exceed three
tenths Of 4 mill is provided.
Under a rule adopted last week,
no original bills will be introduced
the balance of the session. This
however does not prevent committees
from submitting bills which undoubt-
edly will add considerable to the al
ready voluminous grist.
New Board Is Certain
The outstanding achievement of
the past week was the adoption by
both houses Of the bills splitting the
industrial court and recreating the
public utilities commission. In this
the administration won a marked
victory. But the battle is not yet
entirely won. This week is to wit
ness the final skirmishes in the ef-
fort to put across the balance Of the
administration program regarding the
industrial court. 1t is set for re-
newal in the senate tomorrow when
that house takes up consideration of
the bills to consolidate the state
labor department and the Industrial
welfare commission with the indus
trial court. The storm, center Of the
fray is the welfare commission. The
senate has shown a strong desire to
do away with the commission bodily,
rather than transfer its powers to the
industrial court.
Farm Tenantry Waits
Gov. H. J. Allen apparently saw
the handwriting on the wall as re-
CARDS his original plans for land ten
antry and consolidation Of agricul-
tural and livestock bureaus and de-
partments. Although the adminis-
tration forces are riding steadily in
the saddle, they say the judicious
course would be not to attempt at |
this session to seek appropriations to
put the farm tenantry plan into ef-
feet. A commission was appointed
to investigate the plan and report |
to the 1928 session Of the legisla-
ture.

and was standing at her window
when the accident occurred. She
said Mr.. Sprinkel was thrown from

sisted by Mr.. Grubbs, carried the
victim to the train and brought him
