A short illness of pneumonia,
from which, due to his advanced
age and consequent failing strength
he was unable to rally, brought
about his death.
When yet boy, the deceased

in various capacities until 1875.
On August %, 1876, he was mar
ried to Miss Luella Rich, of Mon.
ticello, and moved to the farm near
Lake Amelia the following year and
has resided in this community ever
since, the last 16 years in the viii

words mo More" to bring to the

SUNDAY BASE BALL
LAW HELD LEGAL
Maryland Attorney General
Rules HagerstoWn Refer
endum Not Needed.

HAGERSTOWN, Md, July 18.-Ha-
gerstown's Sunday base ball law. which
Sgalized professional ball in this city
between the hours Of to S pm. on the
Sabbath, is legal and no referendum is
necessary for the bill to become law,
Attorney General William P. Lane ruled
yesterday.
A group of church leaders had petit
toned for referendum on the question
after the bill had been passed by the
General Assembly. The attorney general
ruled that the referendum article OF the
State Constitution did not apply to
public local laws for any municipality
outside Of Baltimore City, and that the
measure un6er question was local to
Hagsrstown and did not affect the rest
of Washington County. He cited the
Court Of Appeals as reference.
Church leaders sent a petition bear
ing approximately 1000 names, believ-
ing that a petition bearing on:-tenth
of the number voting in the last cleo
ton would force referendum on the
question.
One Sunday game was played after
the passage of the bill and the at
tendance at this was SO small that Joe
Cambria, owner of the HagerstoWn fran
chise in the Blue Ridge League, decided
to transfer the franchise to some other
city The franchise is now held by
Youngstown. Ohio. 1t was not illegal
before the passage of the Sunday ball
law for semi-pro teams to play Sun
days here.

PARENT-TEACHER PLAN
GETS HOLD IN TURKEY
Smyrna Body Organized and Others
Are Planned If Expert
ment Succeeds.

ISTANBUL, Turkey.-The first Par
ent- Teacher Association has been
formed in Smyrna and this example
will be followed in all the cities Of Tur-
key if the experiment is successful
The president of the association is zeki
8ey, head Of the Smyrna Chamber of
Commerce, and most of the members
are prominent people of the city. They
will gather once a week at the Boys
Normal School and come in contact
with the teachers of the city. The as
ISOLATION also will try to help the poor
students of the different schools. They
have decided that once month WE'LL
to-do family will provide hot lunch
for the needy students.
The whole question Of discipline in
schools has become difficult one.
The republic has abolished the old
methods of corporal punishment prac-
ticed in the medreSses. The ministry
of education went so far as to say
that all forms Of punishment were
forbidden in the schools. A slap can
lose a teacher his or her place. The
students know this and they have be-
come very hard to manage.
The question OF discipline In the
schools and the homes will be taken
up first by the association, and the
members and teachers hope they will
find a remedy for the present situation.

GREECE WILL AID
TOBACCO WORKERS
Government Forced to Furnish Re-
lief for Labor Thrown Out of
Jobs by New Methods.
nv Cable to The Star.

~ Cable to The Star.
GENEVA, July 18.-Greek tobacco,
an agricultural asset of rather more
than 159,000,000 pounds per annum,
has nearly doubled since 1920. This
product, which finds its way into most
of the popular brands of cigarettes on
the American market, has developed a
labor crisis.
The international labor Office here has
received report from the Greek gov
eminent relating to that country's to-
bacco workers. The recent changes In
tho methods of tobacco manufacture
have resulted in the placing Of many
of the workers on short time.
Unemployed tobacco workers have
been granted government relief in spite
of the other economic strains on the
country's Golfers. The Greek tobacco
workers insurance fund has been grant,
ed special allowances during the past
two years amounting to $1,000. 900
drachmas (about S490.000) in order that
unemployment benefits may be paid to
such workers.
The necessity for this financial aid
has by no means come to an end. and
the problem Is being studied in all its
aspects, from growing to manufacturing
and exporting, in the hope that some
satisfactory solution may be found
which will relieve the financial drain.
The indications are that cigarettes OF
Macedonian tobacco will some day soon
cost the consumer more.

JOBLESS STIR DUST
ON VIENNA STREETS
Unemployed Army Shoulders
Brooms to Prove Zeal for Work,
but Police Interfere.

VIENNA, July 18.-Vienna's most
fashionable thoroughfare, the Karnt-
nerstrasse, was swept the other day
cleaner than it had eyer been before
until the police interfered.
A score of unemployed men, equipped
with broons, descended on the street
and swept it vigorously to show that
they were not afraid OF work If only
they were provided with something to
do.
The sweepers wore signs on their
backs reading Don't help the bankers,
give us work" and Banks may fail,
but our arms are still willing"
Traffic was stopped during the dem
onstration. Shoppers did not pause
long to watch, since the Sweepers in
their zeal raised great clouds of dust.
Policemen finally grabbed the brooms
and arrested the men on charges Of
disturbing the public peace and Of vio-
lating the recent national decree against
parades or other street demonstrations.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
LEONARDTOWN, Md, July ia
male robin, fighting gamely for his life,
was rescued last night in tall apple
tree by its inceSsant calling when a
large black snake, which had eaten its
mate and three young birds. was
attempting to attack the father robin.
Wilson Buckler and Johnson Wood Of
Loveville were attracted by the birds
frantic cries and rushing out of the
house, armed with hoe and flash light,
saw the snake up the tree near the
house and the reptile trying to
hypnotic the robin.
The young men hastily set fire to a
pair of old trousers and holding this
up to the tree, smoked the snake down
and killed it. 1t measured feet long.
When cut open the mother bird and
three other young birds were dead.
1t is believed that this is the mate
to the other black snake killed here
several days ago. which had devoured
10 hen eggs and 6 turkey eggs. and
when killed measured some feet long
also.
