railroad executives and the employees
to get together in a spirit of helpful
ness and not in antagonism and work

a radical difference of opinion be-

Tappahannock and Urbania
Win in Spirited Rivalry
for Locations.

FREDERICKSBURG Va, Aug. 10.
For a time there was exciting rivalry
through Tidewater Virginia when each
town was striving to have one Of the
New Episcopal schools located within
its borders. Fredericksburg offered
historic Chatham" King George and
"Rokeby" to boast about, and there
was not lacking some very special at
traction in each place that wanted the
schools. Port Royal, Warsaw and
Election. all We're in the contest. Tap
pahannock and Urbanna, however, are
the chosen sites.
The old Wright property at Tappa-
hammock, on a beautiful waterfront,
with a campus of six acres, has been
furnished with every modern appoint
ment for a school, and an able prin-
cipal, Miss Bertha Latane, 3. A, APP
pointed as director.
Professor Bcrtram Palmer, b. s.,
will preside at the boys school at Ur-
banna. Its session opens Wednes-
day, September %. The school loca-
ton there also is ideal. The pupils
can swim and sail, and fish, and hunt,
and go picnicking-all without leaving
the academy campus of 100 acres.
Nearby Is old Christ Church beauti-
fully restored for public worship. 1t
was built in the seventeenth century.

PROMISES GOOD HUNTING

LYNCHBURG. Va. Aug. 13.-Local
hunters are in high glee over reports
from the county districts with respect
to the prospect for good hunting for
cartridges next fall when the open
season prevails. Following an open
winter, in which the birds did not
suffer to any unequal extent. came
conditions in July Which did not work
to the cutting down of the broods of
Young birds, so that indications now
are that shooting will be the best next
fall that has prevailed in this section
for some years.
Under the State law the closed sea
son ends October 81, and birds may
be shot after that east of the Blue
Ridge, save in those counties where
the season is abridged by action of
boards of supervisors.
