tin school for domestic science an0s manual training work. That has been very hard, as there is no street car the pupils can take, and it Is several blocks distant.
 Mrs S. A. Middleton is president of the School Improvement associa- tion, which numbers 3b women in it's ranks. This year it is hoped to in crease that membership. On it's serv- ing committee for the lunch yester- day were Mrs. John Wright, Mrs. H.. H. Smith, Mrs. E. E. Spangenburg, Mrs. H. M. Dunston, Mrs. W. T. Ware, Mrs. J. D. Langohr, Miss Avalee o. Brien, Mrs. Lucy Bliss, Miss Camelia Middleton Mrs c. Martin, and Mrs, M. L. Waits.
 The Improvement association has not given up its idea of urging that the proposed white way be extended down to Sixteenth street and Fifth avenue, instead of being stopped at the end of the new post office build ing This will do much, toward building up that section of the town, the ladies believe. They will soon go before the commission to ask this. and also to carry out their idea of having the name of West park changed to Henley park.
 Clinic Tor School
 Also they wish to have clinic for the Henley school since there is much need of good milk to be distributed, and tn echildren rekuire medical at tention such as is given at Cunning ham school. The clinic at Cunning ham school is the model they would
 like to follow, but the commission must grant permission, and then fi-
 nances must Be sought.
 The principal of the school last season-Mr Carmichael-has been transferred this year to be principal of the new Woodlawn High school. Among those enjoying the festivi-
 ties of yesterday at the luncheon, be- sides Mrs. Middleton And those who entertained, were:
 Misses Livia McGruder, Lorraine | Prickett, Eunice Scruggs, Alma | Tharpe, Florence Flint, Bessie Wat son, Annie Bradford, Grance Names
 Anna Green, Rochelle Williams, Maud
 Kale, Kate Findley, Freddie Purcell Marion Florence, Robbie Mckee, MT l Smith, J. R. Hornady, Miss Alma l Graves and Messrs Ed. Mckinley and U. G. Thompson.

Already the plans are in the hands of the architect, and work is to be pushed on the building so that the children will have it's advantages even this school season. It Is hoped to have it ready in the next 60 days.
 The building is to be of brick and two stories high. It will be attach ed to the present Henley school build ing and will be raised so high from the ground as to afford a shady place to play during the summer and dry place In wet~weather.
 The school has more than 500 students and the need of such facil- ities as are being added has been pressing for some time.
 Celebrate the Event
 To celebrate the event, as well as to have the teachers of the school and members of the School Improve ment association meet the new prin- cipal, the improvement association staged the luncheon at the school The tables were laid with white. and the School colors of blue and yellow were interspersed at regular inter- vals in fluting of crepe paper. Com missioner Hornady received an ova- tion from the school group and in the name of the Improvement asso- | citation presented last years prin- cipal. o. c. Carmichael, with a pair of gold. cuff buttons bearing his ini- tial. H. M Burnett, superintendens of the Tuscaloosa schools, and also former principal, was present. He and MT. Hornady,s MT. Carmichael and the new principal, W. Nick | Wright made speeches.
 These talks concerned the life ot
 Henley school, and it was brought | out that as many as 1S nationalities | of children attend it. The need ot
 good strong teacher who will bring | into the lives of these foreigners | the spirit that is American, and ar
 understanding of what American | principles mean, was stressed. Cunning little place cards with good wishes for the cominng seasons
 were at each place. The lunch ir | greater part was prepared by Miss | Camelia Middleton.

[. O. P. ANXIOUS ID REPLACE POMERENE
Object to Democrat Repre- senting Ohio, Home State
 of the President
By HUGH ". ROBERTS Washington Bureau The Age-Horald
 800 Davidson Building

Washington, September le.--(Spe- cial)-The republicans are very anxious to eliminate Senator Pomer- enc democrat. as a member of the Senate from Ohio.
 It Is their point that with the coun- try so overwhelmingly republican, no democrat should represent Ohio, the state of the President.
 But Senator Pomerene is recog- nized is one of the ablest members of the Senate. He will have a united party behind him, a majority of the white men and women of his state. 1t Is admitted that he will be hard to beat. even though the extension of suffrage to women increased the ne- gro vote in Ohio to 2S0,000
 The republicans are endeavoring to unite on one of several wouldbe can didates. In the number under bn- sideration are Walter F. Brown. chairman of the committee which is endeavoring to rearrange the various departments of the government; Dr. Simeon D. Tess, a member of the House, and chairman of the repub- lican congressional campaign com mittee. and Nicholas Iongworth, son. in-law to former President Roose- welt
 Mir. Brown is not a member of Con- gress. He is a firm and close friend of the President, and was said to have had the support of the Presi- dent in his unsuccessful race last summer for the republican senatorial nomination against Senator Willis.
 The Ohio situation, because Ohio is the state of the President and is one of the important strategical states of the union, is already de- manding the attention of both great parties

LEAVING RH|NE[AND

Reports That Orders to Go
Will Come Soon Make
Boys Melancholy.
By GEORGE r.. WITTE.

BY Cable to The Star and Chicago Daily News.
Copyright. 1921.
COBLENZ. Germany. September g.
AS the last days of the sun sank be-
hind the ancient fortress of Ehren-
breitenstein. over which fluttered the
flag of the United States, the right
bank of the Rhine was lined with
hundreds of American doughboys, who
watched the beautiful spectacle on
I the other@side of. the river with
melancholy. The minds of most Of
them. were weighed down with the
big question of the day: When VIII
Washington order our Withdrawal
from Germany"
Though this sword of Damocles has
been hanging over the American
army of occupation for several months
now, 1t is a subject which nobody
new report that the fatal decree is
about to be issued lends renewed i'm
petus to the discussion. These men
were trying to find reasons why the
withdrawal would never take place,
or be put of indefinitely. Each one
ible. some far-fetched and foolish.
some patnetically naive.
II Don't Want to Go Home"
One of them who was standing by
listening was humming that soldier
song: 81 don't want to get we'll. I'm
in love with q beautiful nurse, ana
perhaps that is the best way Of de-
the troops about returning to Amer
lea. The paraphrase duly follows:
II don't want to go home. I'm in love
with this beautiful land"
Even since July. when the peace
resolution was passed. the doughboys
after a more or less detected fashion.
The idea of leaving the pretty little
town of Coblenz. which has been their
home for many months, dogs them
everywhere.
days ago has made them feel very
bad indeed. 1t is believed here that
the last Of the doughboys will have
embarked for home by Christmas.
Coblenx Also Feels Bad.
6nd the people of Coblenz? They
feel almost as bad. OF course. they
say they would rather not have any
foreign troops there at all. but II the
city'S occupation cannot be helped
eywould rather have the Americans
than any other soldiers.
The thought that the French or Bel
gians will occupy Coblenz after the
Americans depart makes them feel
the Coblenz "maeder-the girls.
Many tears have already been secretly
shed after the girls looked upon the
big handsome doughboys and realized
they would soon have to say farewell.
All Coblenz will weep when the
latter also when they take a last look
upon the land where they can live
like kings because of the value of
their dollars.
