his own ideas of angles On tho
stand in the Blundon ease in the
United States District Court here
yesterday. Mr.. Thrift was questioned
as to the direction Of certain roads
that passed his house in Totuskcy
and Of the relative anGic with his
house.
You say YOU heard a car going
at rapid rate Of speed down one
road toward Earnum. What WAS the
angle of that road with your house,
asked Lester Parsons, assistant
United states district attorney.
Would YOU say it WAS at right
rection tho road extended from his
house and agreed it was at right
angles.
IF tho car had taken the other road
10 Farnum. would that have been at
right angles with Your house also
asked Mr.. Parsons.
NO. think that road would have
been at left angles"
Mr.. Thrift also is n man of regular
habits. Referring To his statement
Oh direct examination that the ear
must have passed the house some

 NEWS WORKERS
Eastern Manager Says Edi- torial Education Only One
 of Three Subjects.

IITCAGO, Jan IS. - Expressing I'the belief that the various schools of journalism in the country con fined themselves too much to the purely editorial education of their students, to the neglect of the busi- ness and mechanical departments of newspaper making, Leonard R. Brooks, promotion manager of the Chicago Evening Ameriuan urges the students of the Joseph Medill School of Journalism to keep before them the fact that before a newspaper can be successful editorially, it must be successful business venture.
 From the earliest beginnings of newspaper making," said MT. Brooks, 'the editorial staff has stunned the business organization as if it were tainted. 'Commercialism' has been a fetish, and it has stood in the way of many finished journalist be- coming a successful managing editor or publisher.
 It is just as necessary for the successful editor to understand the business elements of newspaper Eaking as it is for the successful publisher to understand them," con- tinued Mir. Brooks, flor without this understanding he is usually out 'of sympathy, if not actually at war, with the business and advertising offices. Although the functions of these departments differ widely, ev- eryone of them is concerned with the success of the newspaper as an enterprise, and wherever there is discord there will be found either mediocre success or actual failure; where there is harmony, under standing and sympathy, a successful newspaper is almost invariably found.
 ''The young men and women who are planning. to make career of journalism should realize that jour nalism of itself is-only part of a successful newspaper making, and that if they are to crown their careers with important executive positions in the plant, they must equip themselves to discharge execu- tive duties by becoming familiar with every detail of the complicated machinery that makes successful newspapers. Good publisher mater iai' is sought in every large news paper organization, and it is con sidered most valuable where wide editorial training ps combined with broad knowledge of the plant and the business elements of the news paper"

.BL00DLESS FEUD
 IS FOUGHT OVER
Question Agitated Az ain Whether Court Day.
 Shall Stay or Co.,

LEXINGTON, Ky, Jan. 1S.-Ken- lucky has had it's feuds in the mountains and it's duels in the Blue grass and the purchase but not for century has a more bitter blood less feud been fought than that now being staged in the court here be- tween the farmers of Fayette county and the city dwellers of Lexingt on.
 For the city dwellers have decreed that Court Day" on Cheapsile, d block in the center of the city. an institution of a century's duratio.-, must go. And the farmers say that Court Day" must stay.
 The courts have decided in favor of the city dwellers once. but mis- take was made in not including the county in the suit to abolish the custom of farmers bringing their horses and mules and livestock Of all kinds to Cheapside for sale and of the people of the countryside gath ering in the shadow of the statue of John Cabell Breckinridge, former vice president of the United States, to discuss the political issues of tae day. Fer, it develops, Cheapside has for hundred and sixteen years been the property of the county.
 Back in 179O Cheapsida was the center of the city of Lexington, then the metropolis of the West At that time the city trustees ordered the first market house erected on he square The pillory and the stocks, the public well and the court house Gas at present. stood on Cheapside There on Wednesdays and Saturdays the country people brought in their produce and the city dweler and the country dweller met and traded and swapped tales and talked politics. In later years James Lane Allen, a Kentucky writer, made Cheapside fla nous with his description of the monthly Court Day. the last of the ancient institutions of Central Kentucky
 In 1895, it develops. the city of Lexington deeded Cheapside to the county of Fayette. Since that time the county has been responsible for it.
 In late years the brick pavement of Cheapside has become pitted and rough. On court days it is crowded with farmers and livestock and wag- ons' loaded with produce-this once month, On other days automobiles filled the places, parked at all angles.
 For many months there have been complaints of the unsightlipess of Cheapside and the apparent lack of authority by the city police. So ac- ton was started in Circuit Court to force the city to "abate the nuis- arce." The Circuit Court ordered tha nuisance" abated But the court did not count on the county Now the action has been revived through filing of petition by the county declaring it alone has juris- diction over this plot of ground, con tan,ng perhaps quarter of an acre, in the heart of the city.
 What the result will be cannot be told until the Circuit Court again acts and the Court of Appeals has its final say. But one thing is cer. tain. the country folk are going to fight to the last ditch to retain their plot of ground in the city where they can gather and sell their stock and talk politics e"f as-
 One custom of Cheapside that has long passed but of which James Lane
