RESOLUTIONS OF RESPECT.

Resolutions on Death of William M.
Reynolds, Colora, Md.
William M. Reynolds departed this
life, after very short illness, on May
IA, 1924, at his home in Colora.
The call came SO quickly that he
could make no statement of his faith at
the end; but better testimony than
verbal statement was his life.
He was member of West Noting
ham Presbyterian church, and trustee
of this church for many years. While
trustee he filled the office OF Treasurer
of the church with credit.
His faithful attendance at church was
an example, and his loyalty to the re-
sponsibilities placed upon him by the
church was evidenced by his earnest
and cheerful performance Of duty.
He was an agreeable and untiring
fellow worker in the duties of the
Board.
Therefore, be itresolved: That we,
the Trustees of West Nottingham Pres
byterian church, Colora, Md, do Off
cially express our sorrow and disap-
pointment in the death of our fellow
trustee, and yet do humbly submit to
Gods wise providence.
That our sympathy be extened to the
bereaved in the departure of their
brother.
That copy of these resolutions be
sent to the family, that they be printed
in the Midland journal, and that they
be recorded in the minutes of the
Board.

COLLEGES WILL SELECT
 CONSCIENTIOUS STUDENTS
studying "Just Enough To Pass Exams" Is Soon To Be
 Thing of Past

Washington, May %. Going to college to have a good time" and studying just enough to pass exam nations" soon win be thing of the past The movement to include char acter qualifications in the terms of admission is spreading rapidly through colleges and universities Of the United States, many Of which are now requiring submission of character as we'll as scholarship records of can- didates from high schools.
 Failure of prospective entrants to establish a satisfactory record will re- suit in rejection of the student who cannot show good habits, industry, good manners, respect for law and property values. Church attendance, character defects and failures observ- cd In meeting requirements, are now being considered by colleges and uni- versailles In passing upon the fitness of candidates for admission.
 These now requirements for admls- sion to the higher educational institu- lions are being brought to the atten- ton Of parents by the Character Edu- cation institution Of Washington, which is pointing out that passing en- trance examinations will not hereafter get a boy or girl into college. Among the institutions already using systems Of character qualifications are Chicago university, oberlin college, Harvard graduate school of busi- ness administration, Kansas Agricu- tural college, Stanford university, Reed college and Ripon college.
 Public universities and colleges, leaders of the movement say, will not feel justified hereafter in spending tax money on students who do not show promise or earnestness and the true American spirit in their college work. The right to an education partly at public expense. they declare, does not belong 10 the loafer.

Much Porto Rican MOlasses
 Coming to United States

San Juan, Porto Rico, May 29. - Four million gallons of molasses, ap- proximately one Hquarter of the esti- mated production of the island this year, will go into home consumption according to reports from centrals. The ccntrals will produce something like 16,000,000 gallons of bIackstrap mollasses, it is estimated, of which probably 12,0O0,0CO gallons will be exported chiefly to the United States for manufacturing purposes, princi- pally stock feed and alcohol.
 Of the 4,000,000 gallons left for home consumption it is likely that about one half will be feed to cattle leaving 2,00o,000 gallons to go to bootleggers. Four gallons of molasses will, properly persuaded, produce ono gallon Of alcohol. On this basis the alcohol production will be in the nigh borhood of a half million gallons.

miles up the Grljalva from the sea. Before the World War started a chan nel was being dredged to make From terra deep-water port; but work stop ped, the channel silted up, and there is today the old difficulty of getting ships past the bar at the mouth of the river.
 Boats drawing or 5 feet of water ascend the river to the capital, and beyond that point fiat-bottomed trad ing boats ply for considerable ad- ditional distance. Dug-out canoes propelled by paddles and poles are used for traffic far into the interior. spanish Conquest Started at Frontera.
 Before the revolution which un- seated Diaz, the old peonage system was firmly established in Tabasco and brought prosperity to the few large land owners- Since that system was abolished it has been impossible to obtain sufficient voluntary labor to operate the large plantations, and many of them have greatly deterior- ated. The state has fine banana pro- ducing land, and when the American market is such that additional fruit is needed Tabasco exports hundreds of thousands of punches; but when the American market is adverse the banana growers suffer.
 The camel of Spanish control first got his nose under the Mexican tent at Frontera. After the Spaniards es- tablished themselves in Santo Domin- go and Cuba, o~e of their explorers, Grinjalya, sailed to the Mexican coast and explored the river which bears his name. When he reported his dis coveries Cortez led his expedition to Mexico from the islands. Though that touched first in Yueatan, the community on the site of present. day Frontera was the first town he captured. After this initial success he sailed 200 miles farther along the coast and established Vesa Cruz from which he extended his control over the entire country"

ENBERS OF REVOLT
 GLOW IN TABASCO
Last Of Revolutionary Leaders Are EntrenChed There

Washington, h. C., May 29.--Ta bas- co, said 10 he the last state in Mexi- co in which considerable embers of that country's most recent revolution remain alive, has little of the modern in U, according to a bulletin from the Washington. D. C. headquarters of the National Geographic society.
 "Tabasco, at the southern extrem- ity of the Gulf of Mexico, shares the questionable distinction with one oth- CT Mexican state and the two terri tories, ot having no railroads" says the bulletin. Not only is there a lack of highways, but there are no roads Of any sort over which a wheeled vehicle can pass satisfactor- fly. In the matter of waterways, how ever. Tabasco is hlessed-and often cErsed-with an abundance.
 Its Rivers Are Scrambled.
 The GrijalVa and Isumacinta, both streams of considerable size combine to form tangled network of chan neis which embraces large part of the state in a low delta. So low is much of the land and so numerous
 
 systems together, that annually some 2,000 square miles Of Tabasco are in- undated. During the overflow period canoes are used universally for cross country travelling.
 The low, almost swampy part of the state is in a belt so or 70 miles wide along the coast. Between over flows large herds of cattle find pas turage there. Back Of this strip the higher soil is extremely rich and capable Of heavy production. Dense forests cover practically the entire state. In an opening in the forest 70 miles from the sea on the Grijalva is Villa Ilermosa, capital of Tabasco, a town of less than 10000 inhabitants. Dug-Out Canoes Fayorite Vehicles

"JuDGMENT OF THE STORM.

By far the greatest photoplay tri- umph of the year, Judgment. of the storm" opened before capacity house at the Lyceum last night and seems distined to attract equally large audiences during its entire showing here which ends Wednesday night. Also a feature on the bill is the lat est episode of "Fighting Blood" this weeks offering presenting smashing, crashing prize ring climax. The vaudeville has not been overlooked and in addition to several snappy acts of comedy, dialogue, catchy songs and dances and other novelty hits there is real New York headliner, How ard, Winifred and Bruce" This team comes here direct from the Palace theater in New York city and what they cannot do in the line of mar vicious entertaining is not worth do- ing. They alone are the equal of many entire vaudeville programs. On Thursday there is a complete yaude- vile change and the new picture, a William Fox special, is "Hell's Hole" starring Buck" Jones, Lefty" Flynn and Ruth Clifford. It's a dynamic picture of the outposts of American civilization, a story of the red blood ed west of today.
 Judgment of the storm" written by Pittsburgh housewife, is a drama of love and of regeneration. Its ac- tion pulses with heart interest and it's scenes are replete with beauty. The dramatic scene is one of the greatest ever filmed.
