DISARMAMENT
 IDEA POSSIBLE

Tokio, May 6-President Hardirg's idea of approximate disarmament is quite within the realm of possibility 9 said the Jiti Shimpo, a. leading con SerVatIve newspaper, in a new editor ial discussion of the Presidents in- auguraL
 The newspaper continued: There is something in the inauguration ad- dress that makes us reasonably ex- pect the call of an international con vention by the new Washington ad- ministratfon with a view to promoting the cause of armament restriction.
 'The growing popularity marking the proposed Triple Agreement on armament limitation in America lends sincerity and enthusiasm to the above proposal by the American authorities. and this, coupled with the universal sympathy with which the proposition in question is received, places the proposed scheme quite within the realm of possibility
 Japan, which has hitherto made so much of her defense scheme, must now be prepared for the execution of a most rigorous armament restriction which is no longer an empty theory of idealists but has already assumed practical significance and import- ance.''
 The Jiji goes on to express regret that so much indifference towards the project has been shown by the Japa- nese association of the League of Nations which was recently organized in this country. It remarks: Not withstanding the necessity and inn portance of the proposed cause, the association has hitherto done practi- caly nothing to aid it. The organiza- ton thus depriveS itself of it's 'raison d'etre. since the maintenance of peace and the limitation of armament con- stitute the pinnacle of the aim for which the League of Nations has been called into existence.
 But it is not the Japanese associa- ton of the League of Nations alone that is to blame in this respect. Japanese scholars and critics reveal no more sincerity than the association does in upholding the proposed cause. The activity they showed on labor and suffrage questions renders their pres ent inactivity concerning armament restriction all the more conspicuous, and only lays them open to criticism for their inconsistency. It is to be hoped that these scholars and critics, and the Japanese association Of the League of Nations as a whole, will awaken to the serious significance of the proposed cause and rise for it's support

RUSSIAN COLONEL
 ACTS AS NURSE

Athens, May 6-Russian officers formerly of General Wrangers army, who were brought to Greece when the Crimea was evacuated and who have found t impossible to secure other employment, have turned their hand to domestic and household pursuits.
 Recently one of them was seen on the streets of Athens wheeling a baby carriage. He was a handsome Cos sack colonel and his sturdy build, martial air and fine features made him a conspicuous figure. His charge, a rosy-cheeked baby belong ing to a wealthy Athenian family, took evident delight in its stalwart, good-natured nurse, who showed the youngster as much care and affection as the most devoted mother.
 The servant problem does not exist in Athens. At least the Greek house keeper has no such difficulties in this respect, as her sister in America, for she can always fill the places of maids, cooks and lSitchen-hands with former Russian soldiers and officers, of whom there are thousands in Greece.
 These ex-military men are willing to take up the most humble calling If it will bring them bread and shelter. Hundreds of them are now acting as walters, buffers or cooks in Greek households and restaurants.

P. 0. Hanson, prominent farmer
living on the Santa Fe pike mead
Goodwin, is the champion corn produc-
or Of the county. Mr. Hanson brought
to The Herald Office this morning
something that the agricultural editor
had never seen before. Three perfect
ly developed ears of corn growing on
one shank. The variety of corn is
the Iowa Silver Mine, and is a very
high class white corn. Just how many
acres of this corn Mr.. Hanson grew
last year could not be found out from
him, but the agricultural editor propos-
es to shell this corn and dish it out
among the patrons of the paper so
that little can be planted by as many
farmers as possible, and thereby en-
abling the farmers of Maury county
to get start of this seed.
The corn will be on exhibition for
few days in The Herald offic.

School taxes levied at the special

cut from thirty-four to twenty.eight
cents, which lacks three cents of be-
ing enough to meet the school budget
according to the figures submitted to
the court by superintendent Graham.
who said that the reduction must in
evitably result in the shortening of
the rural school term If the county
zoard of education did not go into
debt. 4
The larger part of the ng ses-
sion of the quarterly court was taken
up in the discussion of the question
Supt. Graham submitted an exhaus,
tive statement of the school fund and
showed that it would take levy of
at least thirty two cents, instead of
twenty.eight to meet the budget How
ever, the court by vote of eighteen
to six transferred six cents of the
school levy to the bridge account.
The motion to make the transfer was
made by Squire Jackson and opposed
by Squire English.
The court, however. transferred
over $1,000 OF the school building fund
to the common school account.
BY unanimous vote, the first time
that 1t has ever occurred, the court
continued the appropriation of $1,000
for the county farm demonstration
agent. However, by vote Of IL to
10 the court defeated the appropria-
ton for the home demonstration
agent. A motion to reconsider was
subsequently made and lost by a
vote Of eleven to eleven.
