SCHOOLS AND POLITICS

Something really new, locally, has come out of education week" already. Two prominent men have mentioned it--or have spoken along lines which would indicate they had somewhat the same idea in mind. Probably there was no collusion; probably there is no deep, interior motive back of the sug- gestion. At any rate it is Tn line with the suggestion made by The Herald directly after election that it would be wise to "Remember Politics. instead of following the old and honored slo-
 Mayor Paonessa is reported to have expressed himself as being in favor of opening the schools for occasional political gatherings throughout the year, urging that addresses by men informed on national, state and mu- nicipal affairs would be beneficial. The other evening at one of the local the- aters Rev. J. l.. Davis, delivering -four minute talk" emphasizing the importance of education week, men tloned our school system as being the one institution which knows no class, race nor creed, but which represents the true idea of democracy. He said that the school buildings belonged to us and should be made use of for pur- poses other than merely teaching children. Undoubtedly he would ap- prove the arrangement suggested by Mayor Paonessa.
 If the school board sees no objec- tion to the plan, and if the various janitors could be appeased-for theirs would be the duty of sweeping up each morning after such meetings, it would seem that the experiment would be worth trying. Certainly the thing could be stopped at once if bad results came, either to the building or to the people--or the children. It IS not believed that the taint of poll tical atmosphere, hanging over until next morning, would injure them. And certainly better informed parents would help them. The idea is worth considering. As current events classes are popular these days, so these meetings, if properly conducted, might become popular and valuable.

A Poem.

They say true love is pleasure:
But what pleasure do l see,
Since the only girl that I ever loved
Has turned her back on me?
Since she's gone, let her go, God
bless her;
She is mine wherever she may be.
She may travel this wide world over,
But she'll find no boy like me.
1 would pawn my watch and chain,
love;
/ would pawn my diamond ring;
I would pawn this heart in my bosom
Just to win her back again.
There is many a change in the ocean,
There is many a change in the sea;
There is many a change in the heart
love,
But you will find no change in me.

Selection of Good Poultry
Breeding Stock.

Clemson College, Feb. 6.-In the
breeding of poultry, it is very essen
tial to mate we'll developed males
with the breeding females. The
breeding males should conform to the
standard for that particular breed,
including color pattern and shape.
Breeding males should be vigor-
Gus and healthy. When selecting a
male bird for your breeding pen,
says N. R. Mehrof, extension poultry
specialist, select one whose every ac-
ton bespeaks of life. Know his an
cestry, so that you know what he will
produce. Use only males out of high
producing females. Unhealthy and
non-vigorous males are unable to
transmit their desirable Characters
tics to their offspring.
A good breeding male has the fol-
lowing characteristics: Carries his
body erect, head up, breast out; has
a large heart girth as well as a deep,
long body, all of which are evidences
of abundant capacity; has great
width of back and breadth between
the legs; has fneness Of head parts
and color markings; shows vigor and
health.
Good Breeding Females Necessary.
1t is just as necessary and impor-
tant to select good breeding females
as it is to select good, breeding males
The breeding females should conform
to the standard in regard to shape,
color, and weight for that breed, and
should show all indications of health
and vigor.
Select females that are high pro-
ducers. If you do not have hens that
have the ability to lay a maximum
number of eggs, purchase a few and
improve your flock in that method.
Mate these females with desirable
breeding males.
A good breeding female has the
following characteristics: Clean cut
head, long back, large abdominal ca
pacity, well developed breast, good
color markings, vigor and health.

SUPPOSED LIQUOR
 FOUND TO BE OIL
Prohibition Navy Searchers Find Long Sought Tug in New London
 Harbor-Had No Booze

New London, May 20.-Forsyth line tug William C. Bickle, sought by the prohibition navy for several days. was found here last evening shortly after word came to local collectors of internal revenue Jeremiah Dillon and Joseph c. Comstock to look for her. She had been lying for three days at Chappell Co. wharf and had large casks on her deek, which today were found to contain oil. Captain Tawes of the Hahn of the prohibition navy asserts that just before the capture of the liquor laden smack Edna and May the Bickle pulled away from her and refused to obey his command to stop. Word was received today that revenue officers from New York were coming by boat to take possession Of the Bickle, which has been in custody of details of men from the coast guard academy since seizure by the local revenue officers.
 Secretary Lester A. Forsyth of the company owning the Bickle stated to- day that the tug had not been car rying liquor and was in these waters seeking what tow she might chance to pick up.

R. R. MEN CONFER
 WITH PRESIDENT
Informal Discussion Of Rates Is
 Reported to Be Purpose

Washington May e0,-l.onding rall, read executives of the country were arriving here today for the White House dinner conference tonight tc which they have been invited h, President Harding The list of the railroad men invited has not been given out at the White House but the presidents who had registered at Washington hotels up to noon in- cluled \. <, smith Of the New York Central Samuel kea of the Pennsyl- ,ania, Daniel Willard Of the Bati- more and Ohio and Robert $. Low cit Of the Union Pacihc,
 The executives are understood to plan an informal and private confer ence during the afternoon to dis euss matters which the president will take up with them. It was learned today that officials Of the association Of railway executives and other rail- road officials organizations had not been asked 10 attend tonight's con- ference and that the guest list in- cluded only men actually directing railroad systems.
 Although there has been no off, cial announcement that the chief tcpic up for discussion for the dinner would be the railroad rate situation 1t is the general assumption. What President Harding will be asked is not definitely known but the belief is that he will endeavor to ascertain what the railroads themselves can do in a voluntary way towards a de- crease of rates.
