Question of Jurisdiction.

Judge Scion Carter, of Superior
court. recently was called on to hear
the divorce case Of George VS.. Martha
Washington. When the combatants
for matrimonial freedom arrived, they
were colored folks. Judge Carter, with
his fine sense of humor glanced at the
complaint, smiled at the attorney for
the plaintiff, and said:

George Washington looked up at the

AMATEUR. ATHLETICS

1t is reported by one interested
in such things that there are 5000
young men and boys in the District
of Columbia who are actively par
ticipating in amateur baseball this
spring. 1t is likely that other
sports, such as golf and tennis,
would show up equally we'll, if some
one took the trouble to present the
facts. What is true in Washington
is no doubt true all over the coun-
try.
Amateur athletics appear to be
making rapid progress. The pub
lie enjoys watching professional
sports as keenly as ever, but an
ever increasing proportion of citi-
zens is taking part in the amateur
counterparts of professional games.
This is as true of women as of
men.
The same trend is shown in the
schools. Modern grade schools have
gymnasiums as mart OF their equip
ment, and the younger children
are given better physical educa-
ton than they had in the days of
three-minute recesses for deep
breathing and stretching exercises
High schools and colleges are play
ing up their big inter-school contests
more prominently than ever before,
but AT the same time they have de-
veloped a strong foundation of in
tramural athletics which reaches
practically the entire student per-
sonnet
This is a thoroughly satisfactory
state of affairs. The whole public
is in better health than formerly.
Professional athletics can be over
done. This is rare with amateur
athletics, which mean principally
more healthful outdoor exercise for
the average person, more wholesome
recreation for mind and body
and more joy brought into life
through the spirit of play
1t is certain that disease is bred
and communicated to persons on ac-
count OF the existence of filth. TAX
ing recognition OF this fact, the
board OF health of Paragould is pro-
posing to see to it that cleanup
OF the town is brought about imme-
dlately. Mayor Middleton has is
sued proclamation calling upon
everyone 10 voluntarily clean up
premises, starting Monday morning.
DR.. Scott, the health officer, has
issued warning that instances
where the order is disregarded pros
ecutions will follow. pr. Scott told
a representative of this paper this
morning that he didn't want to
cause anyone trouble but announced
that he certainly do SO il un-
kept premises were found follow
