Packing holse offi cials reiterated today tha the strike de clared one week ago by the Amalga mated Meat Cutters and Butcher Work men has not interfered materially with the normal operations of their plants, and they also stood firm in their refusal to meet arbitration overtures of union leaders. The union officials were continuing efforts to arrange arbitration of the recent wage cuts and Secretary Lane and President Hyes have both gone to Washington to lay the strike and ihe wage question before President Harding and the Department of Labor with a view of having the President ask the packers to meet officials of the or ganization. No reports of violence have been made to the stockyards police within the past 24 hours and, on account of 1he hunt for Tommy O'Connor, escaped condemned murderer, the force in the packing house district was curtailed today.

The past year was observed as "Good English Week" in the Statesville graded schools, and the results have been most gratifying in every respect. According to the unique plan suggested by Supt. R. M. Gray and worked out in detail by Miss Nell Armfield, a member of the fac ulty, small tags were given each mem ber of the school, including the teach ers. The tags bore the inscription; "Watch Your Speech," and were worn every day. When one made a gram matical error the person making the correction had the privilege of punch ing the offender's tag. At the end of the week the tags were taken up and the persons receiving the least number of punches were the recipients of spe cial honors and congratulations. There was much interest manifested by the children and teachers of. the different schools of the town and the results will no doubt be tar-reaching. Most of the school children know some thing of the rules of grammar, but they do not always observe the prin ciples learned when speaking and writing, and the idea carried out so successfully in the public schools here during the past week has been wonder fully effective in correcting the speech of the pupil?, and teachers, too, if there were any who have become care less in the use of the mother tongue.
