A POTION METEOR
DROPS IN VIRGINIA
SHOCK OF EXPLOSION ROCKS
BUILDINGS AND BORES BIG
HOLE IN THE GROUND.

NORFOLK, Va.-The shock Of a
cotton meteor, which crashed to the
ground in an isolated spot in Motto
way county, II miles northwest of
Blackstone, last night, was felt for a
radius of so miles, while the brilliant
glare of the incandescent body illumi-
mated the heavens over southern Vir-
ginia and sections of North Carolina.
The trail OF light, as the meteor fell
in slow curve from the zenith at an
angle of about As degrees, was visible
in this city, Richmond and at points
along the James river, creating gener-
al excitement and even CONSERVATION
on the part of negroes.
The meteor, composed OF metallic
substance, crashed into a grove of oak
trees with an explosive roar some dis
lance from any house, making hole
with an area of 500 square feet and
burying several trees with it. Flames
Immediately shot up, which were visi-
bic for many miles, while trees caught
fire
A party OF scientists and newspaper
men Immediately left Richmond and
this city for the scene, which is 120
miles west of Norfolk.

LIP STICK CASE IN
THE SUPREME COURT
GIRLS LAWYER EXPECTS DE-
CISION IN THREE MONTHS
ON COSMETIC" RULING.

KNOBEL, Ark.-A fathers dying
wish that the Zip stick" case OF his
daughter, in which the rights OF the
girl to use cosmetics while attending
School are at stake" be carried out to
the full extent OF the law is being full
filled by virtue OF the unusual case be-
ing appealed to the Arkansas supreme
court
Described by the trial Judge as "friv-
olous" and not warrantng a place IN
court annals, the case has attracted
unusual attention
Miss Pearl Pugsley, Is years old,
was suspended from the Knobel school
last September for refusing to attend
classes without powder on her face,
after the school board had formulated
rule prohibiting girl students from
using cosmetics of any kind or wear
ing short skirts
The father OF the girl started suit
in district court to have the rule set
aside so that his daughter could re-
enter her classes He died before a
verdict was given in the case, but on
his death bed said he wanted the case
carried as far as possible so that his
daughters rights could be upheld, it
was said.
The rule was held to be unjust and
unreasonable by Judge w w. Bandy
on April II, but he refused to issue a
writ of mandamus to have the school
board abrogate the rules on a techni-
cality. The board members were up
held in their contention that they had
not sanctioned the girls expulsion, but
that it was personal act by Principal
N. E. Hicks, who enforced the rule.
An appeal to the state supreme
court was granted to Miss Pugsley's
lawyer, who said he expected the case
to be decided within three months.

WOMEN OPERATE
ELECTRO STATION
GIRLS MAKE FORMER MYSTE-
RIOUS AND TERRIBLE DE-
MON TAME, SUBMISSIVE.

ATLANTA, Ga-The mighty fore
es of electrical current have not only
been tanned, but they have been COM
pletely subdued. Not many years ago
electricity was a demon mysterious
and terrible, to all mankind now a
girl can make it sit up on its hind legs
and purr.
Believe it or not, Edgewood sub
station of the Georgia Railway and
Power Company, of Atlanta, is operat-
ed entirely by women-three OF them
without the assistance handle the sub
station which transmits current to all
of the downtown section and large
part OF the residential section of At
lanta.
The three-Mrs. Hazel Hart, Miss
Bernice Buren, and Miss Mabel Shore
are on duty day and night, each OF
them working a shift OF eight hours,
during which she is in complete charge
of the transmission, complicated
switch board and the other equipment
by which the high-voltage current is
stepped down to voltage suitable Tor
the distribution to consumers.
This is probably the only station or
its kind in the United States where
women are in complete charge. w. P.
Bellinger, superintendent of operation,
saws that he has never heard Of an
other which uses women in this de-
partment, which was started by the
company during the war, when men
qualified to do the work could not be
obtained. At one time the company
had nine women doing work of this
I..a ct hoe
placed by men except the three who
have been retained at the Edgewood
station, because OF their capable and
reliable service.
To the ordinary person it would
seem impossible that one girl by her
self could be able to attend to the
work, even if she were willing to as
sumo responsibility. The answer is
that the most modern equipment has
been installed, so that the situation
can be operated with the minimum
amount of actual work. As for the
danger, you get so you don't even
think OF that, said Mrs. Hart. And
it really isn't especially dangerous
work if you do the right thing"
Miss Buren, was on duty early on
the morning of last July 18th. A wire
burned out on the commercial bus
line, and flash of fame filled the air.
In an instant one end OF the station
was on fire, the fierce heat was burn
ing the wires and smoke OF the burn
ing insulation was filling the station.
Without quick, intelligent action the
fire would soon have turned loose, the
station would have been wrecked, the
electric service to part of Atlanta
would have been cut off. In spite of
warnings, and at risk of her life, Miss
Buren, remained at her post, threw
the switch that cut the current off,
so that the damage was confined to the
place where the fire originated.

Inorncing sentence on six men con-
victed of having ambushed peace Off
GERS, Judge Hiram J. Johnson, of Man
chester, conducted devotional services
in circuit court in which several hun
dred persons, including Us school
children, participated. The prisoners
were among the 500 persons indicted
in the cleanup campaign ranging from
pistol toting to murder. The Rev. w.
A. Gardiner, of Louisville, whose
prayer in court wrung confessions
from rs moonshiners, conducted the
prayer service.
The six men pleaded guilty and
were sentenced to serve four years in
the state reformatory, following in
formation given by the wives of two
of them when Judge I>hnson made
them understand that his efforts to
clean up the district would result in
better homes and better opportunity
for their children
Take Christ or Devil"
When Judge Johnson sentenced the
six men he told them that they would
take either Christ or the devil to
prison with them and that they could
return "either better or worse men.
When the court called for volunteers
to protect the wives and children OF
the prisoners during the four-year alb

Included among the men who stood
up we're many who were arrested sew

w. G. T. u. NOTES
By the Dawson Chapter.

The daily and weekly newspapers
continue to record the deaths OF those
poisoned by manufactured whisky. AL
cohol is now well known, and is CLASH
fed as one of the deadly poisons Sane
and health loving people are leaving
it severely alone. The home brew
products are so villainous to the taste
and so deadly in physical effects that
they are not growing in popularity. 1t
is estimated by the government chem
lists that not over two per cent of all
liquor is fit to drink.
Digging Own Grave.
Slowly but certainly the illicit wills
ky business is digging its own sepul-
cher Soon or late it will die for lack
of support. Men of average common
senSe-that is, those who haven't been
completely enSlaved by alcohol-are
learning that indulgence in the liquor
of today is as dangerous as swallow
ing tablet picked up for aspirin in
a dark drug store. The poor devils
who persist in drinking because they
seem unable to help it will rapidly die
out. Eventually prohibition really will
prohibit-Southwes Georgian.
Where Personal Rights End.
DR.. Noah K. Davis, for many years
professor of moral history in the Uni
versity of Virginia, in a textbook on
the principles of ethics, lays down this
law, which seems to cover a middle
ground between egoism and altruism
Man has a right to a free use OF his
native powers in the qualification of
his normal desires" 1t will be observ-
ed readily that as soon as a desire be-
comes abnormal man ceases to have
the right to its qualification. In other
words, AS rights must end as soon as
BIS begin To the man who claims
personal liberty" in the use of slim
ulants we would put these questions
earning power impaired? Will your
family be Inundated? Will your de
scendants inherit a disposition to in
ebriety? Unless all of these questions
receive the right answer no man can
claim it a personal right to use slim
ulants"
Prohibition a Success.
1T is frequently stated by alcohol
propagandists that there is in the Unit
ed States enormous illicit distilation.
that nearly every family makes alco-
hol Obviously, this is simply an ex-
preston of opinion. In America only
a few families of German extraction
know how to make palatable beer.
Whisky, illicitly produced, is so nearly
nOn-palatable that only habitual alco-
holics can consume it. Private distil-
lation and brewing, while i worries
the prohibition officers by necesitating
many arrests, is an insignificant fac
tor. Prohibition is a relative success. 3"
