REPORT OF COURT TRIALS REVEALS SCHOOL TRAINING Children Use Better Grammar Than Parents But Make Many Mistakes Due to Influence in Home Double Negative Leads as Most Frequent Rhetorical Error.

While it. is impossible to get. statistics from oourt records showing the! better schooling of the children of to- i day than of the n;itiv Indiana people1 who are their parents, John F. Mola-J day, circuit court reporter, declares I that an examination of '.he eteno- j graphic repor's where a parent and! child have been on the witness stand j will show that the child Is the better grammarian. This fact. Is illustrated many times in every court term but in each instance, one fact stands out: that the child, although better schooled always makes some of the mistakes in grammar which are most common with his parents. This indicates the influence i of the lanenage used In the -homes I ui)on the children which In the case! of poor grammar, acts counter to the instruction received in the schools. Double Negatives Lead. The most common mistakes are In the use of verbs Doubles negatives lead all others and are common even J with apparently well educated people when they become excited on the wit- i ness stand The reports of the court j trials show that children of parents; who strive to improve their English ; make fewer grammatical errors than any others who testify j "They ain't never had none," said a man testifying in one case. , To the same question his wife said, "They have'nt got none." "They have'nt none," was the Improvement made on their answers when their ten year old son was put j to the double negative,. Illiteracy of Wayne county people; is also shown tc. some extent in court: records where signatures are required, j Surprise? are often handed out by j some people who handle large sums of.; money and are engaged in big business by their inability to write more than their names. Some Make Marks. Occasionally in issuing marriage licenses or in securing signatures for, various causes, a person is found who! is nardly able to make a simple cross. This is the method used in signing for illiterate persons. In the presence of (witnesses, they make a cross on the

' ' U

signature line. The cross is designated "his mark" or "her mark" and the name of the person is signed by an official who signs his name also with that, of a witness. County Superintendent Williams said it probably would be Impossible to find more than one or two cases of illiteracy among children from 10 to 14 years old in Wayne county.

BLEASE QUITS JOB AS CHIEF EXECUTIVE OF SOUTH CAROLINA

Resigns Office Without Giving Cause Although Peeved at Legislature Opposing His Views. BY LEASED WIRE-1 COLUMBIA, S. C, Jan. 14. Governor Blease today resigned as governor of South Carolina. His resignation stated: "Hon R. M. McCov.n, secretary of state: 1 hereby resign my office as governor of South Carolinia." This action came without warning. Intense excitement was created in the general assembly, then in the joint session when this announcement was made. The governor a few minutes later sent copies of his resignation to both branches of the legislature. Though from no official source could the statement be confirmed, it was generally stated in t he legislative j halls that Governor Bleuse resigned because he did not "like the personnel i of the legislature." This body was j known to be almost unanimously and i bitterly opposed to him. While a crowd of state officials, ' members or both branches of the legislature! and several score of citizens crowded the supreme court room to j overflowing and packed the wide halls , of the capital before the court room, Charles A Smith, palsied with excltemept, that caused the entire assemi blage of possibly two hundred to quivot noticeably, became the governor of . South Carolina. He formerly was lieu tenant governor. REQUEST BIDS (Continued from Page One.) a half rates on brick buildings would be reduced six and a half per cent and three per cent on frame dwellings. "This saving would be enough," he added, "for the business men to pay for the ladder truck themselves." He said that the fire insurance committee of the Commercial club had not abandoned hope of having Rich mond advanced to a class two rating, but the bureau's demands for such a rating were, in addition to an aerial truck, five more firemen and the placing underground of all wires within the fire districts. "We are not going to ask the city, however, to go to any such expense now," Mr. Campfield said. "To meet, such requirements the tax rate would have to be increased, which would offset whatever benefits the business men might derive in the way of reduced insurance rates," replied the mayor dryly. Regulates Storage. The board has decided to recommend to council the passage of an ordinance regulating the storage of explosives and inflammable fluids. City officials realize that failure to provide as soon as possible an adequate ladder equipment is to court a disasterous fire. The longest ladder the city has is fifty-six feet and there is only one ladder that length. If a large building, should catch afire at least two or three ladders this length would be required and there are a number of buildings where seventy five feet ladders would be required.

THE HAIR THAT I ARTISTS ADMIRE I

Ask an artist what he considers the chief charm of beautiful hair and he will answer that he looks for even color, brilliance and a looseness that eliminates any hard, definite lines. Naturally beautiful and healthy hair are obtained by retaining a perfectly clean head. In washing the hair it is not advisable to use a makeshift, but always use a preparation made for shampooing only. You can enjoy the best that is known for about three cents a shampoo by getting a package of canthrox from your druggist: dissolve a teaspoonful in a cup of hot water and your shampoo is ready. After its use the hair dries rapidly v lth uniform color. Dandruff, excess oil and dirt are dissolved and entirely disappear. Your hair will be so fluffy that It will look much heavier than it is. Its lustre and softness will also delight you, while the stimulated scalp gains the health which insures hair growth. Adv. DO YOU NEED Money?
