In the matter of sale of fresh
meats in the town by the farmer or
the producer of the meat we are told
on authority that the law or rule or
regulation has been so modified that
the farmer may continue to sell his
own product and so the friends OF
the editor may bring along their sau-
sage and pudding and spare ribs and
gatherings and we will be happy
still. And the other hungry people
in the town may be fed by their coun-
try cousins who have the real things
to eat that sustain life. We are glad
the regulation has been modified.

Judge watkins is correct. The
bootlegger would soon go out OF bus
mess if no one bought his stuff. We
might say also if no one drank llquor
there would be no need of prohibl-
ton law, because it would not have
been manufactured. And we will go a
step further, if there had not been
drinking to excess there would have
been no prohibition law.
If we are to punish the man who
buys the liquor just as we DO the man
who sells it, why not punish the man
who abuses the use of liquor and let

the program for the schols is pub

to discuss briefly our educational
needs and problems and help to solve

good work to make it success and
so is the chamber of commerce and
in fact all the organizations OF the
town.
At these meetings appointed we
want every patron and every citizen
of the community to attend at least
one of the meetings appointed. 1
hope that every teacher will take note
of the schedule of meetings and the
hour that the speakers are to arrive
at the school and let the people OF
the community know about 1t and
get them to come out to the school
for this half hour and take part IN
this great movement to awake the
people to the great Importance OF oe-
ing aroused in the education problems

I am writing tonight to the two
preachers whom / understand are
holding preaching service at these
two school houses on alternate Sun
day afternoons, asking that they take
the next two appointments, that is,
the one on December Il and the one
on December 18, and let US have an
educational rally and let me come and
with them talk to the people and sug-
gest ways and means of bettering the
school conditions for the children OF
this section. The people will prob
ably attend the preaching service
when they would not come if l an
nounced school meeting, and the
church and the school must go hand
in hand. If it is agreeable to the two
pastors, whom l understand are Revs.
Gregory and Ross, / am going up
there and make an effort to do some
thing to help the children. A fine
highway through this section means
that more people will come in the
community, and a good school would
be a great ,inducement to them to
come.

five children in this school. The

for Mccullough and Mollohoa to 60

On last Saturday evening 1 drove
down to Fairview to attend the sup
per and entertainment given by the
people of the community. Miss
Woodson of The Herald and News
staff has kindly written the story of
the exercises for this paper. It.was
really refreshing and pleasing to see
so many people present, and to OBJ
serve the fine spirit which pervaded
the audience. But every time l at
tend one of these entertainments IN
the evening I am more and more per
suaded that my position is correct,
that all rural schools should be IN
reality rural community buildings as
well as school buildings, and that
there should be an auditorium just as
there is class room, because IN fact
such a room is almost, If not quite,
as important as the class room. The
school should be the community CEN
ter and it should also be the COM
munity building, and to serve that
purpose as it should the auditorium
is second only in importance to the
class room. And in this day every
such building should be lighted prop
erlv with either the electric light or
some other modern system OF light
ing, and not be forced to use the OLD
kerosene lamp. 1t is dangerous, and
then it is not good or convenient
light. And there should be the work
room which could be used in prepar-
ing the refreshments which are serv-
ed. And it is good for the commun-
ity for the people to get together and
thus come to, know each other better.
And these things are coming in the
rural districts.

am about ready to admit that a
road engineer knows more about To-
eating a road than I do. When l was
told that the highway would go
around this way to Whitmire l felt 1t
was a mistake, and that it would go
through swamps and ct cetera, as
Ring Lardner would say, but since it
has been opened you are forced to
conclude that it makes fine highway
and there is very little grading and
the road will be much easier main
tanned and will cost less than to have
followed the old road. And it can
not be any further and possibly lit
tie nearer this way. Certainly you get
rid of several very heavy grades. And
it is going to be fine road when
completed. And then it will go right
through the live and progressive town
of Whitmire. And this is right also.
In fact since 1 have been able to go
over this much of the road the new
location suits me all right.

/ had not been beyond the residence
of Mr.. John Baker since work had
been started on the highway, From
Newberry to Indian Creek there is no
better road in the county, though
some little part of it would have been
helped had it been scraped. Mr..
Boulware tells me that he has sent
the repair force out that side. But
the bridge at the creek is very badly
needed. The road where you detour,
awaiting the building of the bridge,
is about as bad as have ever seen
it. and that means some bad road.
But when completed so that you can
cross the new bridge it will be dan
dy. And Mr. Boulware says that
work on the bridge will begin in a
few days, may be by the time this is
read. l hope so. From Mr.: John NJ.
Suber's on toward Whitmire the new
road is completed nearly to Mollohon
school house and the force was at
work at the school house on Wednes-
day. And they say that with the eX-
ception of little stretch right here
the road is finished, or about so, all
the way to Whitmire. And the
bridge over Duncan's creek is also
ahont conpleted.

Appear in Fine Number

Ethel Barrymore, happy because her
holiday is in sight, began the last week
of her vaudeville tour with a return
engagement at the Palace Theater yes
terday. Her popularity in the music
hall is bounded only by the fire laws.
Barrie's "The Twelve Pound Look" is
the width of the artistic world away
from the usual run of vaudeville
sketches. Miss Barrymore plays in the
music hall with the same artistry that
she gives to drama at the Empire. She
received ovations at both the afternoon
and night performances.
A distinguished pair appeared in
Fradkin, late concert master Of the
Boston Symphony Orchestra, and the
lovely Jean Tell, soprano prima donna
Fradkin played the violin and accom-
panied Miss Tell in some exquisite
songs. Their act is the most accom-
plished musical offering heard in vaude-
vile in years.

manitarian who organized the Blue

National Isolation Held
Economic 1rnpossibility
Prof. Viallate, of Paris, Opens
Lecture Course on Interna-
tional Relations at Williams


WILLIAMSTOWN, Mass, Aug. l.
National isolation has become An eco
nomic impossibility, Professor Aohille
Viallate, of Paris, asserted in the open
ing lecture tonight of his course on
"The Economic Factor in International
Relations" at the Institute of Politics
at Williams College.
The forenoon lecture was given by
Baron Sergius A. Korff, of Russia. who
emphasized the friendship of Russia
for France and said autocracy and
reaction prevented Russia giving her
best efforts in the World War.
'In August, 1914" said Professor
Viallate, "the declaration of war had
as an immediate result brutally VIC
lent financial crisis, which affected all
the civilized world. And now, the war
ever another crisis, very strong and
sharp, reminds US once more that it
has become as impossible for a nation
to lead an isolated life in this world
as for citizen to live an isolated life
in his own country.
"Never before has it been possible to
realize so fully the Importance of the
economic factor in international rela-
TONS"
Speaking Of the dual alliance be-
tween France and Russia he said that
"the victory of the Allies was the
necessary outcome of that strong
friendship. The victory of the Marine"
he said, "and the resistance on the
Western front were due in no mean
part to Russia's role in the East"
