Of the white infant whose body was
afloat on driftwood in the Licking

closed.
Physicians were able to declare
positively that the infant had lived
and that 1t had met death by means
other than drowning. There was NO
mark of violence disclosed. and nc
water was in lungs.
Several theories as to the cause OF
death were advanced, among them
smothering. but there was no evidence
present to sustain any one of them.
The verdict was that the child had
been alive and had come to its death
in a manner to the jury unknown
Authorities still are seeking a clue tc
the identity of the childs mother, ant
they believe 1t probable that she vii
be located If her home is in this sec
ton.

UPON TEACHERS WILL
Depend HOLDING OF
A NORMAL SCHOOL
Mays,llle VIII BE One Of the Normal
School Locations II Teachers Show
Interest and Enough VIII At
tend to Assure Success.

The conference held yesterday be-
tween Prof. ]. Virgil Chapman. Super
visor OF Rural Schools OF Kentucky,
and Superintendents Caplinger and
Turnipseed resulted In finally agree
ing to hold one of several Normal
courses to be held In various counties
throughout the state this summer in
the Maysvlle High School If interest
is shown by the school teachers
throughout this district.
The state does not desire to 60 to
the expense of holding a Normal
course in county unless near fifty
teachers will take advantage OF the
course and upon this depends the
holding of the proposed course at the
Maysville High School. Already sew
eral teachers in Maysville and Mason
county have signified their desire to
take advantage of such course but
1t is not known whether there will be
enough to justify the opening Of the
school.
Fleming and Robertson county
teachers will also attend the Mason
county school, If it is assured, and
this will bring the number up consid-
erably as several teachers in those
counties are anxious to have advant-
age of this summer course.
The faculty will be Professors w
]. Caplinger and W. s. Calkins, OF
the Maysville High School, and C. r.
Everett, Of the Mayslick High School
and the school will open about the
middle of June and continue for five
siy day Wpnka

Only TWO MORE
SALES TO Be HELD
ON LOCAL MARKET
Sales Halt Today Oh Local Loose Leaf
Market To BE Resumed Only on
Tuesday and Thursday Of
Next Week.

Indications are that practically all
OF the tobacco crop has been deliv-
cred and sold in this section. For the
past two weeks sales have been drag
ging on the local market and a hasty
survey made by the local warehouse
men discloses the fact that there is
but very little Of the weed remain
ing unsold.
Because Of the slowing down Of the
market, the Maysville Tobacco Associ-
alton has decided to close down the
market after todays sales until next
week and only two sales will be held
on next week. The first sale Of the
last week will be held on Tuesday and
the final sale of the season will be
held on next Thursday, March 31st.
There is no reason for any grower
in the Maysville district being left
with tobacco on their hands. The local
warehousemen have given all fair
warning. Those having tobacco in the
barns should get 1t in shape for Tues
day or Thursday,
The local market will sell in the
neighborhood of twenty millions of
pounds this year. Experienced ware
! housemen are of the opinion that It
will not go over that figure.

FASHIONED n0MEL|FE
IN TURN TO RIGHT
Play Here On Next Thursday night
Teaches Lesson All Homes
Should Learn
Again.

What every woman in the audience
witnessing Turn to the Right" at
the Washington Theater on Thursday,
March 81, will want to know Is what
Mother Bascom puts into her peach
Jam, but with evcusable canniness
Winchell Smith and John e. Hazard,
the outhors, do hot tell the secret.
1t is deftly limited, however, that a
dash Of pure old-fashioned love is
used in combination with the spices
and other ingredients Of the confec-
ton.
At any rate, the golden mother-af-
lection of Mother Bascom strikes deep
through the heart Of the play. Her
-faltering, faith in her err1ng
son, Joe, and her charity toward the
town skin-flint who would eject her
from her home, makes her almost d.
vine in the eyes of the playgoers who
peer below the surface. Like the jel-
lies that she magically produces, her
love is pure. sweet. and crystal clear.
Contrasted with the sweet-manner-
ed lady are slippery Mugs and
Dynamite" Gilly, two smooth crooks
from the city, and 1t surprises nobody
when this world-hardened pair fall
victims to the spell of the Bascom
household and are restored, along
with the erring son, Joe. to lives OF
honesty and usefulness.
"Turn to the Right" will be pre-
scented here with the original pro-
duction exactly as 1t ran for solid
year in New York and Chicago The
advance sale will open at Shafer and
Watkins Paint Store on next Monday
morning, March 2S.
