Vay1ous Things Observed in Dayton, Tennessee

Thanks to the prescience of
H. w. Odum-he' sent a letter
to Dayton's entertainment COM
mittee two weeks ago-we
found ourselves provided with
a fine place to live when we
drove into town early on the
morning of the 10th. And our
rooms were in the home of James
R. Darwin, described in the
newspapers-whose word I am
willing to take for it as "a dis
tant relative of the famous
scientist"
Before we reached his house
we saw this sign out in front
of his clothing~store:
DARWIN is RIGHT
Inside
= y
Which indicated that our host,
whatever his views on evolution,
was not letting them interfere
with either his business or his
fun, and acquaintance confirmed
this suspicion. He was breezy,
Ejovial, and hospitable. The spa
cious rooms, the beds strategi-
cally placed between the win
dows, the electric fans to rein
force the breeze-these and 9TH
er comforts inspired in us, at
the start, a positive affection
for the Darwin household and
predisposed us in favor of the
town of Dayton.
AS I write now, I am in Robin
sons drugstore, which disputes
with the hotel next door the
right to be considered the most
popular loafing place within the
corporate limits. Under the
glass top of a table in front of
the soda fountain a square is

CAFETERIA TOr CLOSE

The University Cafeteria will close
Wednesday of next week for the rest
of the summer The place will re-
open with the beginning of the Fall
quarter in the University, according
to a statement of Miss lone Gates,
the manager, yesterday. The closing
of this cafeteria for the latter half
of summer school is in keeping with
the custom of the, management for
several years past.

across the lumber-laden lawn to frisk
about among the pitfalls of open
bitches and brick piles and so con-
found his pursuers. But though the
going was hard Mrs. Kluttz was a
determined leader and she kept the
chasers at it. 1t was in the Arbore-
tum that poor Billy wearied and
there they laid hands upon him.
Without loss of time he was borne
down town in the sedan and measured
for a real halter which is designed
to fit him and prevent his further
straying.

Chapel Hill Chaf

Date-1913.
Scene-President Venable's
Office.
Occasion-Meeting of the
Building Committee of the new
Dining Hall.
DR.. Venable- "Well, gentle
men, we have done all we can
in this matter. 1t only remains
to name the building"
Mr.. Josephus Daniels-"What
name would you suggest, Mr.,
President?"
DR.. Venable-"I think there is
a man, who was one of the most
liberal donors of lands to the in
FAINT University, whose name de-
serves to be commemorated by
giving it to a University build
ing, but L am in grave doubt as
to whether it would go we'll as
applied to this new dining hall
I refer to James Hogg."
All agree that it will not do.
DR.. "Well, then
there is the honored name OF
Phillips in University history
which is not yet applied to q
building" Fl 4
,, Mr.. Daniels-"Won' do. The
boys would call it 'Fill-up Hall
We must get a name they can't
twist into a sacrilegious nick
name"
So the committee gravely
chose the name Swain Hall
which was promptly changed tt
I"Swine"!
One thing that the Weekly
favors is economy in names
Why must people be loaded dowr
with a lot of useless middle, OF
even front names? All of oul
Presidents except eight have
had sensible double names
Stephen Grover Cleveland an(
Thomas Woodrow Wilson haC
sense enough to drop a useless
part of their names, and save {
world of trouble for themselves
and everybody else. Not a sin
gle one of our first-rate presi
dents ever had more than two
names, which leads us to think
that it has really a great charac.

self and the sign before his
store.
Opposite the courthouse an
evangelist advertises in letters a
foot high his book, ''Hell and
the High Schools; and the book
itself-an attack on evolution
is for sale on the table on the
sidewalk below.
The courthouse is in a big
yard shaded by beautiful naples.
Over the grass, all during the
opening day of the trial, were
scattered groups of people,
mostly farmers, listening to
wandering musicians who were
using the occasion to. reap har-
vest of coins. Two rival artists
on opposite sides of the walk
leading up from the street were
singing hymns. One of them
played the guitar; the other sit
ting on a stool, pedaled and play
ed a crude portable organ. The
organist seemed to have the bet
ter of it, in popularity, but pres
emily the guitar-man switched
from hymns to ut amt gonna
rain no mo-" Whereupon the
crowd around the organist de-
serted him with a whoop of de-
light and charged over to the
weather-songster.
Surely there was never such a
motley gathering as the Dayton
courthouse welcomed. Men in
blue denim shirts, overalls, and
galluses; women with babies in
their arms, fiappers, chinless
village cake-eaters; visitors
from Atlanta, Nashville, Chatta-
nooga, and more distant cities,
come to enjoy the show; scores
of newspaper men; photogra-
piers, leaping about from bench
to bench, and sweating copious-
ly; a smattering of the intelli-
gentsia, including H. l.. Meme
ken, temporarily turned report
ers; the celebrated foreign"
lawyers-Bryan, Darrow, and
Malone. And Heaven knows
how many other species and
sub-species of the human fam
lily.
If looking like plain folks" is
any recommendation in such a
trial, Darrow could not be i'm
proved on. His sparse hair
was tousled; he wore a rumpled
shirt; and his trousers are held
up by aged suspenders. Bryan,
on the other hand, was the acme
of neatness, with his white linen
| pleated shirt, dainty gold stud
buttons, and precise black tie.
A man sitting next to me, at
the opening session of court,
was looking eagerly toward the
door to catch sight of the celeb
rites. When Darrow and Dud-
ley Field Malone came in he

PREP AREDNESS
IS URGED BY
VETS"
Legislative Program Assails
Pacifists-U. S. Asked
for Jobs

Pledgins support of an adequate
national preparedness, flaying ultra
pacifists and urging an actual
rather than a theoretical preference
for former service men for Gov
eminent employment, the legislative
program of the Disabled American
Veterans was announced today.
Based upon the broad policies out
lined at the annual convention in
Omaha last June, the plan will be
presented to Congress Immediately
upon the opening of the next ses-
sion in December, according to an
announcement made by John w.
Mahan, the new national com.
mander.
In addition to the national de-
tense and employment items, the
program contains twenty proposed
amendments to the world war
veterans act of 1924, known as
the Reed johnson bill. Some of the
more important of these proposed
amendments are as follows:
That there be established within
the Veterans Bureau permanent
medical service.
That the presumption of sound.
ness at enlistment shall be binding
upon the Government, and shall be
applicable to such congenital de.
fects and other ailments that were
not noted at the time of enlistment,
and the presumption of service ag-
gravation in alleged misconduct
cases be included in the law.
That the dependency allowance
in cases of deceased beneficiaries
be extended to perma nent and total
cases and the parents of vocational
trainees.
That the time limit for applying
for retroactive compensation be ex-
tended.
That the time limit for the be-
ginning and ending of vocational
training be extended and the arbi-
trary two months limit for respon-
sibility in cases of rehabilitated vet
Grams be removed
That the Veterans Bureau be
prohibited from the recovery Of
overpaymentsf to the beneficiary
who. in the judgment of the direc-
tor, was without fault on his part
or where, in the judgment of the
director, such recovery would defeat
the purpose of the benefits othsr-
wise authorized, or would be
against equity and good conscience.

RIFFS COUNTRY
IS DIFFICULT
FOR filters
American Aviators Fighting
for France Will Have
Hard Task
BY, international News Service

KEF- BIR CANYON.
MOROCCO, Aug. IA flight
across a range of the Riff noun
tains reveals a panorama typical
OF the country in which the Ameri-
can airmen comprising the La
fayette escadrille are going to play
with their lives in the daily adven-
ture of beating back the rebels of
this rocky wilderness, VINO always
menace the white colonists OF
Morocco.
Here is the task which the Ameri-
can filters will face when they set
out as aviator-scouts or bombers to
find a group of hostile Riff tribes
men in these mountains. The
lower levels and the valleys, whose
steep watercourses are rushing tor
rents of water in the winter but
dry as a hot poker in the summer,
are mainly yellow, hard baked
earth, broken up by boulders end
rocky ridges. But over the whole
face of this wilderness grow patches
OF scrubby dark green bush. and
here and there bright green patches
of cactus. But that is ALL
From above, therefore. the coun-
try looks like an irregular chess
board of alternating yellow and
dark green splashes. Any bush
may hide an anti-aircraft gun, of
the type used by the British in the
world war, and since then manu-
featured in Belgium by we'll paid
gun-runners.
An American airman flying low
over this terrain looking for such
military landmarks as a watercourse
or the summit of a ridge must
face possible death from any one
of tens of thousands of patches of
dark bush that dot the landscape
everywhere.
Farther up in the mountains a
perpetual mist hangs over the peaks
and increases the hazard of the bird.
man. There is but one way to fly
in these mountains. and that is to
travel at speed of hundred
miles an hour. The mist will not
break. The mountains must be
crossed. Therefore the roaring ma
chine must just tear ahead into the
wall of mist.
All high mountains. especially
near the sea, are the playground of
fierce winds. The Riff mountains
are no exception. The aviator there
fore has constantly to cope with
sudden blows which may buck his
machine upward a hundred feet and
perhaps a moment later cause it to
drop a similar distance as unex-
pectedly.
All this is part Of the days ad-
venture for those who fly across
the Riff territory.

TRAFFIC SAFETY
CONFERENCE
FOR D. c.
National Session in December
to Take Up Problems of
Vast Importance

With the preliminary studies look
ing to the solution of Americas vast
traffic problem completed, the ma
tional conference on street and high
way safety Is making final prepare
tons for it's important meeting in
Washington in December.
Spurred by the 1924 record of
more than $4,000 persons killed,
thousands injured and millions of
dollers' worth Of property loss re.
sulting from traffic accidents, both
Federal, State and municipal Of
Fficials, and private opponents of
safer highway conditions are striv-
ing to perfect a new system that
may he proposed in the December
gathering.
Early reports seem to indicate
that the. publicity campaign against
the careless. the drunken and the
inexperienced driver has had re-
suits. as deaths during the early
months of the present year show a
decrease over previous periods.
While the present plans do not
call for Federal traffic control, the
conference believes 1T will be able,
by coordination Of State and mu.
nicipal enforcement regulations. to
bring about uniform laws through.
out the United States. Lack Of uni.
formity is one of the big factors in
the high death rate and great mum.
Der of accidents. according to ex-
perts.
Leniency Of courts toward traffic
violators must be abandoned in or
der to bring about stronger enforce.
ment. according to most officials.
Even in cities and States where the
laws are adequate there has been a
tendency to let the traffic violator
off with a light fine.
Officials, headed by Judge Will
liam McAdoo, chief city magistrate
of New York, demand higher mini
mum penalties for violators, and
Jail sentences for reckless and
drunken drivers. who are held to be
as great a menace to the safety of
the population as the felon.
