TEACHERS NAME MATTIE B. FRY AFTER BATTLE Factional Feeling Flares as Convention Turns Down Nomination. In the election of Miss Mattie B. Fry. supervisor of Anderson schools, as president of the State Teachers’ Association, educators of the state a*-* one of the most bitterly fought sessions in convention history. Miss Fry's election Friday came on the convention floor after a nominating committee had returned a majority report favoring Miss Katherine Howard. principal of the Frankfort high school, as head of the association. The adoption of a minority report resulted only after the convention gave vocal demonstrations of approval of Miss Fry's name. Fight Is Heated Factional feeling in the convention was fhite-hot. One leader of the Fry group was told by a Howard aid that he was ‘‘no educator, no gentleman, unfair and playing dirty politics.” Attempts to adjourn the meeting on the part of Howard enthusiasts resulted in an accl?' ation revolt of the convention with a chorus of "noes.” Those backing Miss Howard did not give up the battle until they had called for standing vote. Retiring President Acts The count was half-completed when Ralph N. Tirey of Bloomington. retiring president, ended the dispute by declaring Miss Fry elected. Charges were made that Miss Fry's membership in the Teachers’ Federation of Indiana caused the attack on her nomination. Slater Bartlow Jr. of Huntington, was elected vice-president without opposition. Charles O. Williams of Indianapolis, was re-elected permanent secretary-treasurer. Miss Fry and Bartlow will take office at the 1930 convention. INJUNCTION IS ARGUED Insurance Men Seek Dissolution of Assessment Ban.

Love Me, Love My Dog Give Your Dog a Bath; He’ll Enjoy It as Much as You Do

The Pointer. Nightingale's General Jackson, owned by Frederick Holliday, Crow’s Nest. The Pointer is of Spanish origin and was introduced into England about 1700, when firearms were just becoming popular fowling pieces. However, he is a decided improvement over the early type. On account cf Ins short coat he has less protection from burs than a longer coated breed, and consequently he is a bit slow going into thickets. BY MRS. HELEN B. JILLSON |

How about a good bath for your dog? Think what a panacea it is for yourself. It is restful to the nerves and refreshing. Most dogs dote on a bath and are frisky as possible afteward, registering pleasure and well being. Water a little above tepid is best and plenty of good pure soap made into a jeily or applied in solid form. A good lather is worked up and the dog bathed from head to tail. It is possible to place the hand over the eyes and hold the ears down at rhe same time, thus eliminating the irritating experience of soap in the eyes and water in the ears. After all. the soiled soapsuds are removed, rinse thoroughly, and when I say thoroughly, I mean that it is most important. A weak solution of creolin and water may be used as a final bath. This is antiseptic, good for the coat, has a clean odor and is not inviting for fleas. Dry Ears Thoroughly Many times our pups and dogs shake their heads and seem restless and we do not realize the trouble until real pain is indicated. Sometimes a flea gets into the ear and causes discomfort, but the ear canker causes more. Failure to dry the inner ear thoroughly after the bath is the reason. A home remedy for the ear canker is to apply a harmless antiseptic, such as peroxide or glycothymaline on a bit of cotton twisted around an orange stick. Then sprinkle powdered oxide of zinc on the affected part. Several treatments will allay the irritation. It is not wise to permit the dog to go out in the cold until thoroughly dried, although in summer, as long as he is active, the fresh air and sunlight are most desirable. Brushing Is Best After the dog is dry, a vigorous brushing and combing grooms him up and he is bound to have a nice sense of well being. A good brushing every day not only keeps him feeling fit, but eliminates some of the soil on his coat. Unless it is absolutely necessary to wash a dog frequently, I do not advocate it. as a geod brushing goes a long way toward keeping him clean, and constant washing is none too good for the coat. A young puppy should not be washed until he is at least 4 months old and then great care should be exercised that he does not catch cold. ALUMNI IN MEETINGS Three Groups Hold Sessions During Convention.

MACDONALD IS DISTURBED IN LONDON[REPORT Rumor of Resignation Is Denied by Spokesman for Premier. BY JOSEPH GORDON United Press Staff Correspondent OTTAWA, Ont., Oct. 19. —James Ramsay MacDonald, prime minister of Great Britain, rested today at the country home pf McKenzie King, prime minister of Canada, with the most strenuous part of his trip to the North American continent behind him, but with much real work ahead of him. A fortnight hence he will be back at 10 Downing street, the traditional home of prime ministers, where his task of helping the world to certified peace through naval disaramament and parity is to be carried on. The spokesman for the MacDonald party was disturbed visibly by two rumors, both of which came in dispatches from London. One was that the prime minister would resign shortly after his return to London. The other was that Miss Ishbel MacDonald, the prime minister’s daughter, was engaged to Lord Arnold, one of the three bachelor peers elevated by MacDonald when he was premier in 1924. Lord Arnold is an unofficial member of the party. Both rumors were denied unconditionally. The prime minister, it was said for him, prays only that he may have the health to continue to see the conclusion he seeks in his efforts for world peace. The prime minister’s party will rest today and Sunday, with motor trips arranged privately through the beautiful Gatineau hills. The party leaves Sunday night for Montreal, spends Tuesday and Wednesday in the wilderness near Chicoutimi. Thursday and Friday in Quebec, sailing Friday night. Engagement Denied Bv United Press LONDON, Oct. 19.—The rumor of the engagement of Miss Ishbel MacDonald, daughter of Prime Minister Ramsay MacDonald of Great Britain, and Lord Arnold, 51-year-old bachelor, already denied by Miss MacDonald and her father, was weakned further today by a third denial, that of Lord Arnold, himself. Lord Arnold, at present with the MacDonalds in Canada, cabled the following statement to the , Daily Mail from Ottawa: “That statement that I am engaged to Miss Ishbel MacDonald has no foundation. Please deny.” Man Takes Poison Dose Paris Miller, 28, was in city hospital today, recovering from effects of a poison he took Friday in the home of his brother, Gale Miller, 1905 Arrow avenue, where he lived. Miller said he attempted suicide because “nobody cares for me any longer.”

‘Drouth * Ended Butler Pledges Heave Sigh of Relief; Ban on 'Dates’ Lifted.

PLEDGES in fall initiations at Butler university rested easier today and prepared to "step out,” subsequent to lifting of the ban on dates in fraternity row. Probation days lor initiates are over, and young martyrs to the cause of college fraternalism are proclaiming their freedom, after two weeks of dateless nights and gruelling ritual. Pi Beta are shaking hands with the Delta Zetas and Zeta Taus are greeting Chi Omega*. Their "under dog” days have ended. No longer will their pockets bulge with perishable eggs or the fraternal paddle be a constant torment. They rave entered the secret realm of fraternalism with that proverbial nonchalance of college men. Reports from sororities indicate that practically all women pledges have gone through the fall initiations. For them two weeks of lonesome, dateless nights has been a long, long time. But, today, they are searching happily for their Lotharios.

THAW WITNESS IN EFFORT TO CONFUSE JURY Goes on Record as Striving to Leave Doubt in Group’s Mind. Bv United Press NEW YORK. Oct. IS.—Marcia Estardus’ suit for SIOO,OOO against Harry K. Thaw stood adjourned today, with a defense witness on record as having tried to confuse the jury. Miss Estardus, a former night club hostess, charges that on New Year’s day, 1927, Thaw beat her severely during a party in his apartment. Friday, E. Morgan Pendleton, Thaw’s secretary, testified that Miss Estardus was alone with him in Thaw’s apartment for six hours on the day of the alleged attack. Asked if Miss Estardus wanted to be alone with him, Pendleton said: “Use your own judgment.” “What do you mean by that?” as'ked Judge Aaron J. Levy. “Do you mean to infer that something happened or that something had not happened?” “Well, I wanted to leave a doubt in the jury’s mind as to whether anything happened,” Pendleton said. Pendleton also admitted the defense witnesses held a conference recently and discussed the testimony they were to give. The trial will be resumed Monday. $5,000 in Bonds Stolen Nonnegotiable bonds valued at $5,000 were stolen from his handbag Friday, Joseph A. Overman, 225 North Capitol avenue, reported to city detectives. Overman had withdrawn them from a bank to take with him Sunday to California, he said. They were stolen from his room.

Quigley, wealthy New YorK and Denver attorney, lay seriously wounded here today, police and relatives co-operated in an attempt to solve the mystery that has sur-' rounded the shooting. James Quigley, brother, who arrived Friday from Valentine, Neb., inclined to the belief that Quigley was shot by someone in the apart- ( ment of his estranged wife, Mrs. Virginia Coxe Quigley. Police records show that Quigley attempted suicide after his wife defied him a farewell kiss. The brother pointed out that an extra bullet was found lodged in the wall of the apartment, the gun was at one side of the room, and Quigley was found on a bed on the other side. No time like the present for reading the classified ads in The Times.
