A PERTINENT QUESTION

Tn an editorial signed Editor Press', Arthur s. Barnes in the Bristol PressDs suggested that, if Attorney General Frank E. Healy 1feels asshe does about the republi- can party of the state, let him fol- low the lead of Newberry and resign forthwith" The following is a copy of the editorial:-
 "When it is remembered that Bristol was one of the few towns in the State where Healy influence seemed to predominate in caucus, the present attitude of this man Healy should be interesting reading hereabouts. Men of courage do not generally accept favors from those whom they endehyor to overthrow and yet this man Healy shows that he was so anxious to hold his politi- cal job that his crusade for fright eous politics" could be laid aside un- til he had been elected to a state office. If Healy feels as he says he does about the republican party of the State, let him follow the lead of Newberry, and resign forthwith.

We felt Him in the pleasantness of morn and evening hushes; His midday sun upon, the fruit has warmed it into bushes. We smelled Him in the fra grant breeze that blew from blossom ing clover; we saw Him in the maple trees that bend our homesteads over. And now, when come the shorter days of bracing autumn weather, we join once more about the hearth and offer thanks together. Our barns are tight and, lodged therein, our well-fed beasts are warm; our house hold shelter pleasant seems in con- trast with the storm. The crops are in, the fields begin their well-earned winter sleeping; the harvest of the years to be are in the Fathers keep ing.

Few persons would guess that the smallest things visible to the eye are the stars. Yet Divers was no doubt correct in declaring that such is the case.

TRIA DIES WHILE IN exile
Pneumonia Develops and Causes the
Death Of Former Ruler Of Austrian
Empire Saturday Morning.

Funchal, Madeira, April !. Former
Emperor Charles of Austria-llungary
died here today.
Former Emperor Charles was taken
III at his home in exile on tile Island
Of Dadeira slightly more than a week
ago. He was first said to be suffering
from a fever, but direct advlces from
Funchal on March rs announced that
his malady was bronchial pneumonia
and later 1t was stated that he was
suffering from pneumonia with cere-
bral complications. His condition be-
came so serious Wednesday that Ex-
treme Unction was administered.
There was some improvement in the
former rulers condition Wednesday
night, but he failed to maintain his
gain, and Friday he grew rapily worse
The illness of the ex ruler aroused
great sympathy among the monarch
lists in both Vienna and Budapest One

ed from Vienna in the hope of reach
ing Funchal and attending the ex-
monarch, a subscription of several
million crowns being raised to defray
the expense, while in Budapest it was

OF CITY SCHOOLS
City Board Of Education at Meeting
Held Friday Evening Unanimously
Reflects School Head for
Three Year Term.

The regular monthly meeting Of the
City Board Of Education held at the
High School building Friday evening
was very important one as much
important business was transacted.
Probably the most important business
transacted was the fixing Of salaries
for the various positions under the
board and the election of superin-
tendent.
The only salary increases made
were in accordance with the salary
schedule adopted several years ago,
and are provided for because Of the
length OF service. New teachers are
started at $3.50 per month but are
increased to the regular grade teach
ers' salary after the first year. There
were three such teachers, who II elect
ed for next year, will receive this in
crease in salary. The colored grade
teachers will also receive slight in
u cdbc " uilh6 tuclh up " thC Wv P>A
month minimum as required by state
law.
Prof W. ]. Caplinger, who has been
head Of the Maysville City Schools for
the past nine years. was unanimously
reelected superintendent by the board
for a term of three years. During
Prof. Caplinger's tenure Of office, the
Maysville schools have made rapid
strides forward and he is recognized
as one Of the leading school men In
Kentucky. He is not only President
Of the Department of Superintendance
Of the Kentucky Educational Associa-
tion but also head the state organiza-
tion of school heads in cities of the
Third and Fourth class.
The school board granted all the
city teachers a three-days' leave oil
absence to attend the Kentucky Edu-
cational Association in Louisville IN

CENTENARIAN IS
NATIVE MAYSv|LL|AN:
CIVIL war VETERAN
George w. Carl, Now 1O3 Years Of
Age, Was Born at Mays.
Vile - Interesting
Sketch Written.

From the Washington C. H. Record
Republican, we take the following ex-
cerpt from a resume of Fayette coun-
ty from the pen of ]. E. Cross, former
editor of The Adams County Record,
who is doing statewide publicity
work in connection with his legislative
duties at Columbus:
"The experience Of the pioneers who
lighted civilizations first fires and
who hewed their homes from the pri-
meval forests that covered the country
have been subjects Of continued inter-
est to all students Of history.
Such pioneer-George W. Carl
resides at Washington c. H., at the ad-
vanced age of 103. Born at Maysville,
Kentucky, March %, 1919, he came
with his parents to Aberdeen, Ohio, a
year later, then removing to Winches-
ter, Adams county, where he resided
number of years. He cast his first
vote in 1910 in the memorable 'Tippe-
canoe or hard cider campaign.
Though past forty-two years of age
when the flames of civil war spread
DER the land, Mr.. Carl enlisted in the
33rd Ohio Volunteer Infantry and was
wounded. Being incapacitated for a
time. he then enlisted in the Seventh
Ohio Cavalry along with so many COM
rades of Adams and Brown counties.
He was badly injured by being thrown
from horse and was honorably dis
charged. Again he volunteered, this
time in the Second Heavy Artillery, in
which he served until the close of the
war, unique service in all branches
of the army. He was discharged with
his regiment on the day that the body
of Governor John Brough lay corpse
at Columbus. Although suffering
from complications incident to ad-
vanced age, Mr. Carl's mind is as
clear as a bell and he enjoys telling
{ his experiences"

vent flooding of the mines.
Thousands Of non-union workers
were reported to have joined the sus-
pension.
I'VE have tried to bring the mine
owners into wage conference; now
we're going to fight" Lewis said. !
Fifteen hundred mines in the open
shop fields were heaving coal above
the ground feverishly to augment the
nations 65.OOO,OOO-ton reserve. This
surplus and the non-union production
will enable the country to endure a
strike of at least six weeks without
feeling the pinch of fuel shortage.

Of tthe union, and district union chiefs
trying to devise some means to bulge
