Fish in ie.bound Waters.

Fish do not breathe air, but the
life supporting constituent of air
oxygen gas-which is soluble In
water to the extent of three vol
umes in 100 at ordinary tempera-
lures and four in 100 at freezing
point. The water containing the
dissolved oxygen is made to pahs
over the gills, where it IS separated
from the blood only by very thin
membrane, through which the gas
is able to pass. Fish in icebound
rivers have to depend entirely upon
this store Of oxygen for their respi-
ration, and if it becomes exhausted
they are euffocated, just as we
should be if deprived of oxygen It
rarely happens, however, that any
considerable area of water is entire
" covered with Ice, especially IN the
case Of rivers. Holes and cracks
are almost sure to occur here and
there BY which the oxygen of the air
can reach the water and become dis
solved in it. During a long frost
fish may always be found eongre-
gated beneath air holes IN large
numbers. They are there to
breathe.

MatrimoniaI Experts.

In the early days of Virginia.
when the adventurers were mostly
unmarried men, it was deemed nee

could be prevailed upon to leave
ENGLAND as wives for the planters.

matrimonial ships, dated London,
Aug. 12, 1921, says:
We send youth the ship widow

HE WAS LOCKED OUT.
How Many Hopes, Like This One, Are
Really Burglar Proof2

The feminine mind is never en-
tirely burglar proof. One night,
contrary to her usual custom, Mrs.
Brooks, who had just read hair
raising tale Of daring burglary,
locked and bolted her front door on
her way upstairs to bed and looked
to the fastenings of the parlor and
sitting room windows. Dawn was
streaking the east when she sud
dendy awoke with a start, to re-
member that her son Victor men
toned his intention of staying out
late that night to rehearse for a
coming concert.
Dear, dear!" mourned Mrs.
Brooks, tossing uneasily. 81 must
have locked that poor boy out, and
l don't think he had money enough
to go to hotel. How could I have
been SO thoughtlessP'
The remorseful mother, unable
to go to sleep, worried for the next
three hours over her locked out son.
Victor, however, appeared at
breakfast time, looking little the
worse for any discomfort he might
have suffered.
eDo forgive mep apOlogized his
mother. 81 forgot all about that
rehearsal and locked you out. !"
Locked me ont ?' said Victor,
surprised. "Why, 1 didn't know it.
The front door was locked, but the
shed door being wide open l helped
myself to half pie out of the ice
box. Then l found that the pantry
window was also open, SO 1 climbed
In after crackers and made lemon
ade on the kitchen table. After
that I slipped into the sitting room
took rug from the closet and 9
pillow from the window seat and
slept on the parlor couch.

Rand ooncert.

One of the best concerts by local
organization ever heard in this city
was given by the Second Tennessee
Regiment Band at the park last
Saturday night. The boys returned
from camp at Waverly on the after
noon train. In the evening they
came out in dress uniform, and the
music was fine. A large crowd was
present, including Governor Patter-
son and Miss Gardner and Assist
ant Adjutant General H. C. Alex
ander, of Nashville. General Alex
ander is very proud Of his band and
has been exceedingly kind and gen
erous to them. Here is what the
Nashville Tennessean said of the
band:
The Grays concluded their round
OF social affairs by large dance
given in Fowlke's Hall from 7 to 10.
The hours, while not particularly
fashionable from a standpoint of
social usage, were adopted per ne
cessity to conform to camp rules.
The second Tennessee Regiment
Band rendered music for the oc-
casion and won an everlasting
friendship of the Grays. This milf
tary musical organization is I'M
questoina bly, the best in the South,
and while its memberships made
up of Union City's most prominent
citizens, il never plays for dances,
yet on accout Of the Grays having
visited Union City, it volunteered
its services to the Grays and assist
ed in making the evening the sue
cess Of the encampment. About
thirty-five couples participated and
it was fitting finale to the social
stunts of the Grays.

Redlands. Gal. Marriage

News reached us last week of the
marriage of Miss Pearl Morgan at
the home OF her mother, Mrs. ]. r.
Morgan. Of Redlands, Cal, to Mr.. ].
L. Snydar, Of San Bernardino, Cal.
Miss Pearl Morgan, the lovely
young wife of Mr.. Snydar, was an
ideal young lady of Union City.
Born and reared here, the writer
knew her from early infancy. Not
only is she blessed with youth and
beauty, but she has brilliant mind
and possesses rare tact and quick
wit. Her manner is viyacious, and
in conversation her freedom from
atfectation is very attractive. 1t is
easy for her to make an d hold
friends; indeed, she is said to rival
her distinguished father in popu-
larity. These traits are an inheri-
tance with Miss Pearl Morgan, as
her father was leading man in
the commercial world Ind stood
high in society, church and social
circles. As father he was perfect,
giving his children all that money
could procure-in travel and educa-
ton. Miss Pearl is graduate of
two colleges of high rank the
Hamilton College, of Lexington,
Ky, and Columbia College, of Mis-
sour. Miss Pearl inherits her
fathers strong character with the
beauty and charm of her mother,
who was Miss Anna B. Mailing.
and one of the noted bellies Of West
Tennessee.
We congratulate Mr.. Snydar in
the possession of such treasure
as Miss Pearl for his life compan-1
ion and join with her numerous
friends in wishing for them all the
happiness this beautiful world can
give. CONTRIBUTED,
