WASHINGTON HIGH STUDENTS AD-
DRESSED BY LATIN PROFESSOR
OF UNIVERSITY OF TEXAS.
Miss Roberta Lavender of the
Latin department of the University
of Texas in a lecture to the pu-
pils of the Washington High School
last Friday told why Latin should
be studied more and why it is not
a dead language.
"The word is the smallest unit
of thought" she said. "The word is
finit an expression of physical ex-
perience; it is an Intellectual con-
cept and la often crystalized folk-
lore or History."
"The source for the word is three
fold: Anglo-Saxon Greek and Latin.
Every word must reveal a picture
and appeal to one of the senses.
Latin learned well is the foundation
for seven languages."
Miss Lavender was exceedingly
Interesting from start to finish

Waco Texas April 20. Grand
Jury indictments last Wednesday
against Roy Mitchell charging him
with the murder of Mr. and Mrs.
W. H. Barker and a small boy
Homer Turk at Concord near here
in February of last year have pre
sented a peculiar and unusual legal
aspect to the alleged cases In
volving Mitchell according to lead-
ing attorneys nere.
It Is said that Cooper Johnson
and Benjamin Young were indicted
i V .. I. jl.J
and convicted of the triple murder
after having made written confes-
sions. Johnson was given the death
penalty and Young sentenced to life
imprisonment. On appeal both cases
were affirmed and a hearing denied.
It now develops in a written con-
fession by Roy Mitchell that he
claims to have committed the triple
murder. Mitchell has been given
the death penalty in five murder
cases during thn past three weeks.
According to a statement made by
the district attorney last Thursday
there is much doubt existing that
Mitchell committed the triple mur-
ders at Concord but his confessions
