The Stock Law

Now as there is pending In the hands
Of the people of Randolph county
would-be stock law and sooner or later
IL will be up to us to decide the ques-
tion by our vote, let me say to you
that this is more serious than some
folks think. Let us see what the fs-
suit would be- and who would be the
beneficiary. We have hundreds OF
small farmers and one horse renters
who would have 10 sell Off the last old
COW on the place and of course the dig
cattle men would buy them up at
low price and drain the county OF
milch cows. Consequently the people
would be forced to buy more cotton
seed oil and pork, more imported but
ter and molasses. Now boys II wont
help you any 20 let's stick to old Brin
and Pide for they will stop a big hole
in your supply bill. The stock law
would add many dollars to the pack

pastures and better grade Of stock but
why force the renters and widows TO
sacrifice that few others may galnf
Can we not have these without a stock
law to force us to it?
Randolph county has thousands OF
acres of land that Is fit for nothing
except as grazing land. shall we vote
this blessing out OF our hands? IL
we do we will rob many a little chiif
of the very best food In the land and
force many a man to buy condensed
milk for a sick baby. Now LET us CON
slider these few awkward written lines
and vote one hundred per cent against
the stock law.

TEACHERS TO HEAR
FAMOUS EXPLORER

Robert Cushman Murphy, famous
naturalist and explorer, has been
brought to Washington by the Ma
tional Geographic Society especially
to address the geography conference

ing at the New Masonic Temple to-
morrow at 2 o'clock.
Mr.. Murphy will DESCRIBE to teach
ers how an expedition works. giving e
a thrilling account of his adventures
in the South Sea Islands, where the
exotic spectacle of pearl divers, the
primitive native peoples and the
curious birds and flowers constitute
a remote inSular paradise.
The lecture will be illustrated with
motion pictures of the pearl-diving
season, when thousands pour into the
pearl ports, and the electric light and
automobile take their places amid
native haunts.
For the benefit of those who did not

selling an investment which brings
large returns to every one except
ourselves"
Probably the outstanding contribu-
tion of the past two decades by class
room teachers is their organization
of teachers as teachers, the speaker
declared. Not until classroom teach
ers were so organized did they begin
to realize, she said. their comparative
positions in the educational scheme
or attempt to develop themselves in
harmony with that position.
Another important contribution, Miss
Spooner continued. is the classroom
teachers reputation of the absurd
assumption that child character is
the product of the schools solely"
The superintendent of schools will
make his most valuable contribution
in organizing a type of curriculum
fitted to the needs of his particular
city and state, DR.. Sutton said AS
superintendent he is the guardian of
the teachers interests and the con-
Meeting link between the entire
school system and the people.

league by the United States would
be inadvisable.
