Thomas W. Shelton Demands Fixed Interstate Judicial Rela tions Before Judges Confer. MONTREAL, An*. 30—Thomas W. Phelton, of Virginia, was the princi pal speaker to-night before the Con ference of Judges, composed of the 48 chief Judges of the States, the Chief Justice of the Court of Appeals of the District of Columbia, the nine presiding Judges of the nine Federal Circuit Courts of Appeal, a Federal Judge from Hawaii and the Chief Jus tice of Porto Rico. It was the flrst conference of Judges ever held in the history of the United States, and it was held on foreign soli. The object is to bring about uniformity In Judicial procedure among the States through fixed in terstate Judicial relations, and pro mote closer relations between the courts. "There Is," said Mr. Bhelton, “no more excuse for differing court pro cedure among the States than for the use of different languages The prac tical men of commerce are demand ing the injection of practical com mon sense in the machinery of the courts, and Congress and the Legis latures are being called upon to give the courts the necessary power. It has been long since apparent that unless Judicial procedure was re formed oy the bench and bar, it would he attempted by persons more selfish than patriots.” The speaker declared that the courts and lawyers were helpless; that, "under the policy of Congress and that of nearly all the .States,” the Judge Is bound hand and foot by rigid statutes. As a result, the courts have been accused of Incompetency and the law'yers of indifference con cerning a condition they did not cre ate and are helpless to remedy.

S. WAR DEPARTMENT THE RECORD By special order of the Secretary of War an offi cer of the United States Army is to be detailed for service at Riverside Military Academy. The approval for this detail follows speedily the recommendation of Major B. F. Hardaway, Sev enteenth Infantry, stationed at Fort McPherson, who made the inspection by special order of the War Department early in July. V This detail carries with it the complete equip ment of modern rifles, dross and sendee accouter ments, haversacks, canteens and mess equipment as used by the United States Army. Also artillery and cavalry equipment for dis mounted service. The uniforms of the Riverside cadets are identi cal with those of the West Point cadets, and are fit ted to the figure of each cadet by military tailors at Riverside Military Academy. In this respect, River side 1 stands alone among the Southern preparatory schools. THE RECOMMENDATION In July of this year a request was made upon the War De partment for an army officer to be detailed for service with the Riverside cadets. Copies of the current catalogue and a complete description of the campus, location, surroundings, physical equipment and faculty were furnished. This so impressed the War Department that notwithstanding the annual inspection of academies and schools applying for such recognition is made only in April, a SPECIAL INSPECTION was ordered immediately, and Major Hardaway was detailed for this service. He was so impressed with the location of Riverside, two miles out of Gainesville—connected by trolley—in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains, on the banks of the Chattahoochee River, with Lake Warner on its 2,000-acre campus, that he wrote in strong praise of its magnificent natural advantages and wonder ful possibilities. He was greatly impressed with the opportunities afforded for indoor gallery practice, long range sharpshooting adjacent to the school, the maneuvering grounds, bridge building, pontoon work, swimming, boating and other arts of modern warfare, all on or at the campus. The physical equipment, with its well lighted, perfectly ven tilated and modemly equipped barracks, mess hall, class rooms and gymnasium, so enthused him that his comments on these fea tures in his report caused the War Department to take immediate action and announce the approval and detail. THE REASON Riverside possesses all the requisites of an ideal ' military school. In addition to the superior advan^ tages named, Riverside has: 1. An Accomplished Faculty—An instructor of successful experience for every twelve boys. No cadet’s room more than three doors from teacher. 2. Wholesome Atmosphere—Two miles out in the hills, with ideal quietude for study, yet enjoy ing the cultured influences of the refined and in tellectual city of Gainesville. 3. Superior Athletics—Only best coaches and trainers employed. Every boy given opportunity to-participate. Three and four teams in each sport, coached by members of faculty. 4. Individual Instruction—All the courses of fered by any preparatory school and taught thor oughly. 5. Inspection Invited—The most complete boys’ school in the South. Parents and prospective patrons urged to visit academy. FOR RESERVATIONS AND RATES ADDRESS Riverside Military Academy SANDY BEAVER, President GAINESVILLE : : : : : GEORGIA
