Shorty McCabe (

Have you made the acquaintance
of the latest hit in American humor
-SrweIl F0rd's Shorty McCabe"
stories? If not'you are missing a
heap of fun. Shorty is a "charac
ter" in every sense of the word. AS
an artist in humorous slang he can
match George AIDES fables, and as a
creator of original and witty phrases
he can match MIR. DOoley, but
Shorty can beat his predecessors in
the art of telling a good story. 1t
is q genuine story every time, too,
with-a hilariously funny plot and
with characters that are alive and
kicking. full of the quirks and absur-
dities of universal human nature.
Shorty McCabe, his better half,
Sadie and their laughabIe adventures
in New York society can be found
and enjoyed only in the Sunday
Magazine of the Chicago Record
Herald, whose editor has the honor
of having discovered SewelI FOrd's
powers as a humorist. This unique
magazine is filed with fiction and
timely articles every week, written
by many of the most noted authors
of our day, but nothing seems able
to Overshadow the perennial interest
in the Shorty McCabe stories, which
appear every second week Throughout
the year. Wherever you go you
will hear people talking and laugh
ing over them. Thousands of peo-
Pile take the Sunday Record-HeraId
simply for its Sunday Magazine and
the inimitable Shorty McCabe. 1t
begins to lie a question whether
Shorty is not a more popular person
age than Mr.. Dooley.

Maury County English Walnuts!

Maury County English Walnuts!
w A Derryberry, who lives nine
miles out on the Bear Greek pike, this
morning brought to town more than
100 pounds of choice English walnuts.
The fruit was grown by Mr. Derry
berry, who has an English walnut or
chard consisting of six trees. The
orchard was set out in 1872 and has
been bearing for twenty years, but
this year the yield is exceptionally
good. having totaled about 125 pounds.
Ready sale for the fruit is found in
Columbia, the local grocers readily
purchasing the entire output at Is
cents per pounds. Mr.. Derryberry
states that his ,2rgest tree IS twenty
five feet in height and is as broad as
1t is tall The smallest tree is about
half so large. The walnuts are larger
than the California walnuts by one
third, and are of fine flavor. They
ripen early in the fall, and do not
wait for frost.

From Wednesdays Daily.)
Standing before a vast multitude al
South Side Park today, Governor Nal
colin R, Patterson, as a representative
of the State Board of Education, prom
ised to the people of Maury county
full consideration of their claims for
the location of the Middle Tennessee
Normal school, and fair and impartial
treatment.
The Governors address was but one
of the features that served to render
Educational Rally Day. a memorable
one in the annals of the county. 9th
er features of more than special note,
were the addresses of State Supt of
Public Instruction R. L. Jones, State
High School Superintendent P. l..
Harmed, Prof P. P. Claxton, of the
University of Tennessee, a spontane-
GUS welcome to the highest education
al board in the state, and monster
parade of school children.
Early this morning six members of
the State Board arrived from Fayette-
vile and were welcomed at the depot
by a committee of fifty representative
citizens. One hour later Governor
Patterson, accompanied by Mrs. Pat
terson, arrived from Nashville and
was greeted at the station by the same
enthusiastic reception committee. At
IL o'clock, the remaining member,
Prof. Todd, of Murfreesboro, came in
on late train.
Shortly after the arrival of Cover
nor Patterson this morning the State
Board of Education, the reception COM
mittee, and many distinguished visi-
tors from other counties, were placed
in automobiles and carried to the fair
grounds The start was delayed few
in order to permit the parade
Of school children to reach the
grounds. At South Side Park the
members of the Board were escorted |
to the Judges stand, where they re-
viewed the school children as they |
passed in almost endless procession i
before them. Standing with heads
pared Governor Patterson and State
Jones bowed acknowl-
sdgement time and again to the sa-
utes of diminutive Maury countians.
first came the Cadets from Columbia
Military Academy, headed by the
cadet band There were two hundred
II them in line, and they made hand
ome appearance, despite the fact that
he new uniforms have not arrived
md many of them were dressed In
toys. Next came NC
lowell school, then the city schols,
N dnext the representatives OF the
chools outside Columbia. The chill
ren were armed with countless U. s.
ags and some of them carried large
anners. The Nashville Military
and headed the second division OF
he parade. Stopping in front OF the
idge's stand, the pupils from the pri- |
nary departments, sang the national q
nthem. The sight was rare one.
Iany OF the tots were in the rompers g
tage and their childish treble rang
ut an appeal to the State Board more {
loouent than any that older tongues i
ould utter. There were about four b
,ousand children in line, and 1t re-
pired twenty-five minutes for them to n
ass the reviewing stand.
Al the conclusion of the parade W. Fl

,eoker state supt. r. L. Jones. Mr. n
The Columbia herald. [volume] (Columbia, Tenn.) 18??-1935, 1909-10-08

Webster was applauded when he de
clared that Columbia wants more
schools but wants to give up none thai
she now has.
In the fifteen minutes that he spoke
Supt. Jones drove home argument
after argument for the higher educa.
ton of the children of Tennessee. He
I deplored the lack of interest shown
by Maury county in the establishment
of Normal schools, and cited statistics
to show that the county has 1880
children eligible under the present
high school law. Mr.. Jones said that
Maury county was compelled to pay
her pro rata tax for the support of the
high schools, and that she was sleep
ing on her rights to neglect
present opportunities. There is
now $4,000 available for the
maintenance of high schools,
and of this sum Maury county is en-
IlJleu 10 ABOUT S1,0UU.
In commenting on the magnificent
school children's parade, Mr.. Jones
caused ripple of laughter by saying
After witnessing his parade OF
bright faced school children I am
frank to say that were your strenuous
ex-president here his fears as to the
danger of race suicide would be for
ever allayed."
Following Professor Jones, Cover
nor Patterson who had been eloquent
ly introduced by Hon. j. H. Russell,
spoke for ten minutes. The Governor
was greeted with a round of applause
when he arose, and throughout his
speech there were many expressions
of approval from the throng. The
States chief executive referred to
Tennessee's rapid rise in the educa-
tional scale, and declared that no /
backward step would be tolerated. He
outlined the position of the State
Board to Maury county by declaring |
that fair and impartial treatment
would be accorded each Of the twen-
ty-two counties contesting for the
three normal schools. The governor
said that some would be disappointed,
out that the claims of all would be
given equal consideration.
Col. Hardy introduced Prof. P. L.
Harmed as the last speaker of the morn
ng. Prof. Harmed spoke but a few
and contented himself with
outlining the work undertaken by the
tate in the interest of the High
chools.
Adjournment was then taken for [
unch and for the next half hour ten
thousand people contented themselves [
With eating famous old Maury county Il
eef and mutton. u
After dinner Prof. p. p. Claxton, OF I
he University of Tennessee, addressed '
he crowd at the fair grounds, and i
ate in the afternoon a game of base
all was played between the locals c
nd the Andrews team. II
The State Board left the fair {
shortly after one O'Clock and t
ere carried in automobiles to the fl
curt House. where the claims of Co s
imbia and Maury county were briefly
ut eloquently presented. Judge w. Il
ruce Turner was the chief spokes Il
an for ColumbiaS and short talks u
ere also made by representatives
ON other counties in the congress
onal district. After the speech pi
sking the members OF the Board cc
