Lafayette County Schools Pro-
greSS.

"There is no doubt but that inter-
est in the welfare of our country
schools is increasing" says Superin-
tendent Woolworth of Lafayette
county. This interest is manifesting
itself in a variety of ways; but a
greater desire for better school room
equipment and for greater personal
and teaching power in the teacher
herself, is summary of the evidence
Most boards are willing to pay a
good salary for good service, and a
teacher who can render good service,
lis in demand"

WORLD

Presenting only the masterpieces
of the screen, carefully fitted with
the best of music.
TO THE PUBLIC OF MIN
ERAL POINT.

For the past few years Mineral
Point was robbed of the Biggest
Screen Masterpieces that the
larger cities were showing, be-
cause they cost money to bring to
the small towns.
The World Theatre has overcome
this and for the past six months
set a standard that the people
have not overlooked.
Mineral Point has the right to see
these master productions and at a.
price that is unheard of in any
small town. Ideals in pictures are
today bringing to the public
only the good and best stories act
ing, settings and titling that teach
and educate you to finer things
that are in life.
We have not overlooked the chill
oren and for them we are also Sc
lecting the right kind of enter
tainment that will make them the
better for having seen them.
We cordially invite the most crit
1cal to come and witness the pro-
gress that has been made in the
motion picture.
Sincerely yours,

FOR DEMOCRATS

Washington, Sept. 20.--"Thc Demo-
cratic party, as patriotic organiza-
ton and one interested in rcgainng
control Of governmental affairs must
not only refrain from captiouS criti-
rism but must actively support the
administration in its efforts to dis
arm the nations and thereby reduce
taxation and guarantee the peace Of

This vs. statement by Oscar W.
Underwood, Democratic leader in the
Scnat" sad Dcmocracy's representa-
tive on The conference for the imita-
ton OF armam ,ut, in an exclusive
interview with this correspondent at
his nome tonight. He was moved to
talk through the expressed belief of
some OF Ms associates in the senate
tfat The conference presented un-
uSua! opportunities for political play.
Specifically, he was asked regard
ing ~ solution TO be introduced
tomorrow by Senator Harrison, of
MisSiSSiIp containing Il "rcspcctful"

tatvcS insist ON the admission of the
pAcsS to The conference. Regarding

Sacramento, Oct. PA pronounced
revival of activity in the gold mining
fields of northern California and Ne
vada, where the 49crs once operated
is being manifested, according to re-
ports reaching this city, and most of
it, it is believed, is due to the declin-
ing cost of materials used in gold min
ing operations. Reduced cost of la
Dor is also factor in the renewal of
activity.
Within the last two weeks much
work has been begun in the Mother
lode district in Amador and Calavcras

BAGS BUTTERFLIES
WITH SHOTGUN

In the forests of Northern Austria
liza there is to be found butterfly
that is always hunted with powder
and shot. This is brilliant-hued
creature, highly valued by collectors.
1t is very shy and hovers about the
upper branches of the trees, seldom
approaching within 20 feet of the
ground.
For long time the only specimens
in collections were the frayed and
bedraggled individuals which, be-
cause of injuries to their wings, had
dropped below their zone of light.
A travelling American naturalist
went to Australia determined to get
some perfect specimens of this rare
insect For several days he strove
with long nets and short nets to en-
trap some of the beautiful creatures
of the upper air. He raised ladders
and climbed trees at the peril of his
life and limb, but the wary butter
flies kept beyond range of his nets.
Yankee ingenuity was not to be
beaten SO easily, however. This en-
tomologist hit upon the idea Of a
dccOy.
Loading his gun with the smallest
shot he had, he brought down one Of
the highfliers. 1t was badly bat
tered, but he patched and furnished
it up to an appearance of reSpccta-
bility, and spread it on a bush top in
a conspi> uous spot ten feet above
the grouud, arranging the wings with
as close resemblance to life as pos
sible.
Curiosity is bcsctting falling of
butterflies. Presently two of them
noticed their departed comradc, and
began to circle lower and lower
above the bush. Others Joined in the
investigation, and finally the patient
collector was able to capture one of
them by a swift movement. This sent
the others soaring away in alarm,

LITTLE ROMANCE
With HILL FOLKS
With
Poverty and Hopelessness With
NIountaineers.
LIKE THEIR FREEDOM
Strikes in Cumberlands Bring Men of
the Mountains Once More Into
Limelight.

dorothy Steele in New York Hcrald)
When the smoke of battle clears
away and the excitement over strikes
and fucds dies down in the Cumbcr-
lands there will still remain the
mountainccrs. The mountaineer as he
is today may be lacking in many
things, but in his life of freedom and
independence he is an American with
many of the characteristics of pio-
nccr days, and he has givch a good
account of himself in history. 1t has
always taken some violent upheaval
to jostlc him out of his hills and hol-
lows. The Confederate war brought
out stalwart supporters on both sides,
but after the chaos of reconstruction
the sons of the hills were apparently
forgotten and lapscd into more com
plete isolation than ever. Now that
local conditions have once more di-
rected the spotlight of publicity on
him revealing him in all his pathetic
grandeur, it may prove the permanent
turning Of the tide in his favor.
""Thcy are just plain oncry," was
about the most complimentary com
ment that could be had from the low
landers in West Virginia regarding
their mountain neighbors. The low
lander is not given to sentimentaliz-
ing over the mountain enighbor and
his hard luck, and are not deeply i'm
pressed when it is suggested, tina
maybe the poor things haven't ha.

lization because the ywcre too onery

boys and girls, and the effort is ever
on the direction of practical training
which will not change too much
their natural characteristics. They
are taught not to despise their poor
cabins but to make better ones, and
when enough Of boys and girls are
taught to make better homes, better
farms and better forests they will
have come into their own, and the
mountaincer will no longer be q
problem, but an asset.
