THE GROWTH OF THE SCHOOL.

The Morgan County High Schools growth is some
thing beyond what was expected by those in charge It
was expected that it would eventually build up but no
one prepared for the sudden awakening of the people
to its advantages The pupils from the county that
in attendance far greater than the management expect
ed, and still they come.
Considering that the new school law requires all fu
ture applicants for certificates to have high school train
ng it behooves the citizens of the ccunny to prepare
that this training can be had at home. Ample schoo
buildings and dormitores needed. The best plan to
these to vote sufficient bond issue to secure the
funds We informed that the present tax rate would
meet the requirements in from six to eight years. but the
County Board of Education has power to appropriate
beyond the Of year. The bond issue would
not increase taxes but would merely make the revenue of
the next few years available 1t is matter Of vital
Importance to the people of the county to provide the
facilities for educating their children at home.

SOME GOOD IN PURPLE PATCH
Absolute Condemnation of "Flashes"
In Composition Can Hardly Be Said
to Be Warranted.

Every textbook on rhetoric con-
tains a warning against "purple
passages" and nearly every literary
critic has, at one time or another,
held them up to wrath. This cen
sure needs some qualification.
A purple patch may not be bad in
itself; its fault may be that it az
centuates the poverty of the sur
rounding texture-that it is not a
true and rational effect and devel-
opment Of style.
Its writer has often been COM
pared with a man who wears a dTab
coat which has been mended by a
piece of gay cloth designed for some
gorgeous wearer.
But if the drab coat offends our
eyes, why should we deny them the
pleasure of looking on the splash Of
vivid color?
To write a sentence ending with O
proposition is a misfortune; to split
an infnitive is a crime; but the mar
who composes a purple passage may
retort on his critics by saying thai
he was giving a sample of what he
could do, had he taken more pains
or were he more happily inspired.

UPLlFT MOVEMENT IN EGYPT
Women Are Now Being Educated, and
only Opposition Comes From Older
Men of Country.

Egypt may seem far away and
conservative. But it is not too far
away or too conservative to be af-
fected by the progress which is being
made by the woman's movement to-
day. Thirteen of the government
schools for the training Of teachers
have been especially set apart for
woman students and now have an at
tendance of .2,030 girls with AZ
trained woman teachers. In one of
these schools there we're 1873 applica-
tions for 13 student vacancies. Last
year 2,s67 small village schools had
an attendance of 92,OOS girls.
It is said that the old men Of the
country are opposed to this change
in attitude toward women, but the
younger men are more advanced ir
their ideas and want their wives tc
be educated. Some of them art
sending their young wives to schoo
or arranging to have them taught al
home.
What this change means to thu
women themselves may be imagined
On reading this description of he
life as given by an uneducated haren

A HOPEFUL SIGN.

George L. Martin, Of Louisville, defauted for large
sum and was captured and brought back for trial. Hav
ing stolen thousands and being possessed of influential
friends he was able to employ the best counsel and effect
compromise and get agreed sentence of eight years.
But they reckoned without the jury When the plea Of
guilty entered and the submtned the jury g
nored the compromise" and brought in verdict of ten
yearsin the penentiarya light sentence at that
This is an evidence that the ures are tired of the
Compromises" between the Commonwealth and the Grim
inas aad that they will meet out justice if given the op
portunity: The law-abiding public in Louisville owe
much to the Louisville Evening Times in securing the ten
year sentence for that paper gave much space giving
the inside facts in the After ALL the newspapers
are the greatest factors in law enforcement.

WILL WE TRY FOR GOOD ROADS?

The need of good roads is apparent to everybody and
it generally conceded that they the salvation of the
country But when it comes to the question of paying
for them great many people bak. They don't consider
that bad roads costing than goods would cost
u.s. We must face the fact that good roads cost money
But they are worth all they cost and not
without them.
Under the recent decision of the Court of Appeals the
county cannot lend the money to the State but we car
let it be known that willing to do our part and
unit bring pressure to bear the Governor to call ar
extra session of the Legislature to provide means for the
State to finance the roads.
Agitation is needed. Be good roads booster

SEEK EVIDENCE OF THEORY
Scientific Expedition Endesvoring to
Prove Existence If Land srdge
Across the Atlantic.

The gathering of further evidence
to support the theory that there was
once a land bridge stretching across
the Atlantic from Newfoundland to
Great Britain and thence to Scandi-
navia is one Of the purposes of geo.
logical expedition from Princeton
university which will visit New
foundland this summer. Similar
parties from Princeton have conduct
ed Investigations along the southern
bays of the island during the past
three years and besides obtaining val
liable collections of rocks, minerals
and fossils, have made discoveries
tending to solve various geological
puzzles.
Prof. Gilbert Van Ingen, who has
been at st. Johns, N. F., with two
Of the expeditions, found fossils bear
ing a marked resemblance to those
unearthed in Wales and Sweden.
This led him to formulate the theory
that in prehistoric times it may have
been possible for animals to travel on
dry land across what now is the At
lantic ocean. He considered that
this was supported by the fact that
an underwater shelf of rock, upon
which many telegraph cables have
been laid in recent years, extends
across the Atlantic.

interesting experiments on this sub
ject have been carried out by DR..
X. S. Lashley of Johns Hopkins uni
versity. Acquisition of skill in arch
cry was selected as the subject of Oh
servation. Twenty unframed per-
sons we're divided into three groups.
One group shot five arrows with the
English lOngbow per day; another
twenty shots per day, and the third
forty shots. The results showed con-
clusively that the group shooting
only five times a day improved in
accuracy with less expenditure Of
time in practice than was required
by either of the other groups for the
same amount of improvement. A
report on the experiments says
"The relatively greater efficiency of
short periods Of practice continuing
for many days is in accordance with
the results Of the study of animals
and of speech habits in man, and in
dicates that in training to muscular
feats, in both animals and men, the
length of practice periods required
is usually too great for maximum
efficiency"
