pices Of the Maysville and Mason
county Boards Of Education will be
opened at the Maysville High School
on next Monday morning and 1t is ex-
pected that at least sixty teachers and

here for the course from Bracken,
Robertson and Lewis counties. The
school will be in charge of Superin-
tendent W. j. Caplinger, of the Mays
Vile Public Schools, and besides Mr..
Caplinger, Prof. George Noel, princi-
pal Of the Maysville High School, and
Prof. G. e. Everett, principal Of the
Mayslick High School will make up
the faculty.
AS the High Schools actual work
closes with this week, the Normal
school will have plenty Of class room
space at the High School building be-
ginning Monday. The Normal School
will be in session six days week for
five weeks and the teachers complet-
ing this course will be given the same
credits as if they had attended one Of
the State Normal Schools for the sum-
mer course.
The expense of the course is being
paid by the city and county boards OF
education and Maysville and Mason
county teachers will receive their tu-
ition free. Teachers from adjoining
counties will be required to pay a
small tuition fee to help defray the ex-
penses of the course but this tuition

ed In bonds or notes, such as l could
procure from my banker, secured by
first mortgage on farm lands In Ken

lence of its farm products. These
bonds or notes bear interest at the
rate of six per cent. per annum, gen.
orally payable semi-annually. The
gross income from this investment
would be $15OO.OO annually, and after
deducting $10O for state taxes, the net
annual income would be $1,400.OO.
These farm loans are made at about

ways been worth par, and 1t is highly
probable that it always will be worth
par, irrespective of financial condi-
tions or world disturbance.
No better security exists than farm
lands. Conditions may change; gov
ernments may rise and fall; inven'
tions may be multiplied; but as LONG
as humans inhabit the globe, agricul'
ture will ever be the basis Of life, hap
piness and prosperity.

Childs and Mr.. w. A. Munzing, en-
ployees of the Bank Of Maysville, won
the three prizes offered by the bank
ers Of the Sixth and Ninth groups of
the Kentucky Bankers Association in
giving the best Investments for wild
ow left with an estate of $25,000 in
money.
In this contest the employees Of all
the banks in the Sixth and Ninth con-
gressional district took part, The five
best suggestion were printed upon
ballots distributed among those at
tending the convention Wednesday at
Beechwood. A committee then tab
ulated the ballots and awarded the
first prize of fifty dollars to Mr. w. A.
Munzing, the second prize of $25 to
Mr.. James Childrs and the third prize
of $40 to Miss Elizabeth Reed.
The winning suggestions follow;
First-W. A. Munzing:
Investments for a widow whose en-
tire estate is $25,000 in cash.
First-The purchase of a modest
home, $2,50O.00.
Second-Deposit in Savings Depart
ment some Bank or Trust Co. $2,5OOOC
| Third-Invest in Liberty Bonds first
to fourth issues inclusive $10,000.0O.
Fourth-Buy First Mortgage Farm
Bonds, $10,0OO.OO.
Reasons for above investments:
First-To insure permanent home
Second-To have reasonable
amount of money available in case OF
an emergency.
Third-They are a long time loan
with absolute safety of both principal
and interest, will yield an average Of
about 51s% at present prices, being
tax free, and will furnish a monthly
income for eight months of each year
Fourth-Are considered by all bank
ers and investors as the one best mod.
crate earning investment known. II 6%
bonds will yield $3.50 net yield, be-
ing taxable at 40 cents hundred II
this state.
The above will produce an income Of
about $1175OO a year, not including
the use of the home.
Second-James Childs.
She should purchase moderately
priced home, not to exceed $4,000. Il
her circumstances make 1t desirable
to board, she could make this invest
ment an additional source Of income
In investing the remainder, safety o.
principal should be the first consld
Grafton and then an adequate income
Direct obligations Of the Unite6
States Government are the safest Sc
curities.
When we consider their tax exemp'
ton features, the net income they vii
yield and the term of years they will
run, Registered Liberty Az per cent
Bonds, in my opinion, would be thu
BEST investment.

AMERICAN RIGHTS
GERMAN RELIGIOUS ORDERS Elk.
cLUDED FROM MISSIONS
HAVE CITIZEN MEMBERS.

1t is expected that arrangements
will soon be made to permit the send
ing of German missionaries to some
of the countries whence they were
withdrawn as result of the war. In
the German possessions in the Pacific
especially, which were taken over by
Japan the German priests were dis
possessed in many cases with disas.
trous effects. The restoration of these
missionary institutions is one of the
difficult problems to which considera
ton is being given by the CATHOLIC
Church.
The Lutheran Church is making an
effort to re-establish missions of this
character. The Rev. L. B. Wolf, at the
biennial convention of the United
Lutheran Church held at Washington
announced that the Lutheran mission
airy conference had decided to return
German missionaries to the fields from
which they had been driven by the
war. The United States is indirectly
interested in this question because OF
the fact that in some of the German
religious orders there are Americans
whose rights are involved.

Catholic Education! These two
words mean a great deal to the hearts
and minds of good Catholics. Catholic
education sows the seeds of all vir-
tues, most dear to our Blessed Lord,
namely, faith, hope, and charity. With
out Catholic education we would be
no better than Pagans and we would
never know how to thank the great
and good God who was so kind as
to create us, and furthermore, to die
for us SO as to redeem us from sim
Catholic education is very much
needed at the present day. If we are
good Catholics, that is, well instructed
in our holy religion. we will be better
able to overcome the allurements and
temptations that are continually go
ing on around US.
A child deprived of Catholic edu-
cation grows up to manhood without
the knowledge and goodness of God.
The schools and colleges of the State
give no place to religion in their pro-
grams, which to my mind is the most
essential. The Catholic ideal school is
that in which secular knowledge and
religious training blend together in
inseparable union. The children at
tending these schools will be the flu
ture men and women of our country.
We need good citizens. Catholics

WATTERsON ON IRELAND
HE RECALLS A BOYHOOD DREAM
INCLUDING THE CAPTURE
OF LONDON.

A letter written in reply to an in
vitation to preside at a mass meeting
of friends of Ireland in Louisville, KY.
My Dear Judge O'Doherty: I regret
that the state of my health will not
permit me to accept the honor and to
fulfil the duty your ever partial favor
would assign me.
My single claim to that favor
springs from the circumstance that I
have been always friend of Ireland
and the Irish people, in my younger
manhood associated with John Mitchell
and Thomas Francis Meagher, John
Savage and Joseph Brannan, my close
friends and professional yokemates.
No free born man can read the story
of Ireland from the days of Cromwell
to the days of Lloyd George without
sense of burning indignation. Long
ago lost all hope, if ever had any
real hope, of justice to Ireland from
England. The English are the racial
enemies of the Irish as they are the
natural, national and historic enemies
of the Americans. The time may come
when they will be required to meet
and pay the long bill of spoliation and
wrong piled up against them by Gen.
turies of self-complacent rapine, and
though l may not achieve the vision of
my2boyhood of sweeping through Pic
cadilly with a troop of Black Horse
cavalry to plant the Stars and Stripes
over the Marble Arch and camp in
Hyde Park, there are children-may,
be full grown men-who will live to
/ see it.
| So, good buck and God bless the sons
and daughters of Ireland, and may the
divil fly away with John Bull, Edward
| Carson & Co.
| Faithfully yours,

MEXICAN AFFAIRS
THE QUESTION OF RECOGNITION
PROCEEDING CAUTIOUSLY
AND OF COURSE SLOWLY.

1t is expected in diplomatic circles,
that now the elections are passed,
there will be clearer indication of
the relations that are likely to pre-
vail between this country and Mexico.
In spite of the eagerness of Mexico
for recognition it seems doubtful that
anything will be done by this govern
ment until President Obregon is some
time in office, and it is quite possible
that the question of Mexican relations
may be left to the incoming admins
tration.
The state department has proceeded
cautiously in the matter of recognition.
Although the attitude of the present
Mexican government has been reas-
surfing the disposition has been to
mark time, waiting to see that the
promises given are fulfilled. So far
there has been an effort to suppress
the abuses which resulted so disas.
trously for the Catholic Church in
Mexico. 1t remains to be seen how
completely the new Mexican govern
ment will carry out it's assurances in
| this respect.

BROTHER MAURELiAN WAS NOT.
ED AS TEACHER AND AUTHOR.

Rev. Brother Maurelian, F. S. c.,
president emeritus of the Christian
Brothers College at Memphis, Tenn,
died in that city on Monday, December
20. Brother Maurelian was born on
April 20, 1912, at Lancaster, Pa, and
educated in the Christian Brothers
schools. He was member of the or
der for about sixty years and estab'
lished the college at Memphis about
1871, being it's first president. He was
in charge of the Catholic educational
exhibits at the New Orleans Worlds
Fair in 1SS4-S5; at the Chicago Colum
bian Exposition in 1893, on which he
wrote the final reports, and at the Ten
nessee Centennial in 1897. He was
