Mrs. B. M. billiard, on the part
of the organization, turned over

sponded gracefully on behalf of
the club and expressed the
pleasure of the members upon
being the recipients Of such dis
tinction at the hands Of the
ladies.
The room is the result of a dis
cussion covering several years of
the necessity for a suitable and
attractive place for young men
and boys to meet and spend their
evenings in pleasant and HARM

is beautifully furnished and al
ready a library with quite a num-

U. D. c's.

One of the most delightful meetings
of the u. D. C's during this season
took place last Thursday afternoon az
the hospitabie home of Mrs. Baker.
Fragrant flowere lent an added charm
to this attractive home, and Mrs. Bak-
er sustained her well earned reputation
as a most gracious hostess. Our presl-
dent. Mrs. Marmon has gone to Mont
Eagle for the summer. We regret
her absence, however the vice presl-
dent, Miss McAlister fills the, chair
most creditably. Meeting called to or
der by Vice President, and prayer by
Mrs. Laney. The Chapter thinks there
is a treat for everyone in Tupelo when
they hear Col. Cookies noted lecture
on the Klu Klux Khan July 18th. Mad
ames Finley, Hood and Miss McAlister
wer appointed to get the music for the
evening. Madams .Monaghan and
Yates were appointed to see that the
lecture Was well advertised. Treasur-
err was asked to send 500 to the Shi-
lob Monument Fund and pay S2O.0 90
for the U. D. C's, lot in Greenwood.
Mrs. Yates read a note of thanks to
Mrs. Hood from the Chapter. Too much
praise canuot be given Mrs. Hood, her
love for the Chapter and untimely eff
forts in the U. d. G. cause makes her
dear to the Tupelo members and she
deserves the credit for our Chapter
standing among the first in the state.
Miss McAlister read from the copstitu-
ton what the u. D. C's. as a body
S Expected to do. We realize that
Mrs. Finley is an addition to u ranks
and a hearty Welcome is extended her
by each member. Tempting refresh
ments in the form of ices and cakes
were served. The Daughters" are
urged to notify the hostess when they
cannot be present. July meeting Will
be with Miss Dozier.

Misses Annie Honnoll and Syble Whar-

beautiful and impressive ceremony.
The wedding came as a surprise. but
when Madame Rumor, gave notice
friends lbegun to serd in tray after
tray of lovely flowers until they made
the parlor a veritable bower of roses.
The presents received attested the es-
TEEN in which the contracting parties
were held.
The bride, who is beloved for her
g~entleness and nj lesty, was becomingly
gowned in a n piece going away cos
tune of old rose silk, and carried a
superb boquet OF cape Jesamines, wnile
the groom looked handsome and happy
in the conventional black.
There was all the tenderness, mingled
smiles and tears attendant upon the
sacred home wedding, and when the
parting hour came and the mother in
deed gave her beloved child into the
keeping Of the one she had chosen, ey-
cry heart breathed a prayer that the
action of this day would bring multi
piled joys and blessings both to the
mother and to them.

ately for Memphis where they will be

NO WEAR ON IMPORTANT
PARTS AFTER 10000 MILES

A unique performance has Just been
completed with Cadillac Thirty in
Illinois-a thousand mile nonengine
stop run to complete the first ten
thousand miles covered by the car,
and the disassembling of the motor,
transmission and rear axle to show
the practically perfect condition of the
parts after running 10000 miles
The car has been in use in and around
Toniea, H., since last November as a
demonstrating and livery car and had
received the rough usage and indif
ferent care which inevitably falls to
the lot of cars in that service. When
it had been run about 1000 miles,
Rollen Travis, the owner, decided to
complete the first 10000 miles with a
nonstop run.
This was successfully accomplished
and when the car was disassembled, it
was found that no part of the motor,
transmission or rear axle had been worn
to an extent discernible with the naked
eye. Caliper measurements of the work
ing parts of the engine, compared with
new parts that had never been used,
failed to disclose any appreciate wear.
Mr.. Travis says that since he has
had the car he has never had the valves
ground or the carbon cleaned from the
cylinders; and that the engine has
never given a moment s trouble, al
though the car has been handled, at
various times, by six to eight different
drivers.

NOTHING DEFINITE
ABOUT RETURN MATCH
9~6>s~s~9>.~s~s

Nothing definite is settled with re
gard to a return match between Reilly
and Cullen. Only one thing is certain,
and that is that the fans want it.
Both men are willing to engage in
another battle, but the local impre-
sarios do not seem quite so joyful on
the subject.
Jack Scully came out on the wrong
side of the ledger over their first
meeting, and he needs pretty good as
surance that the fans will back him
up, if he puts the clever ightweights
on again.
There may be something definite ar
ranged today, but it is hardly likely.
But it is probable that the noise,
meaning that the fans want another
go, will make itself heard so loud that
something will be doing before very
long
There IS no doubt that their last
meeting was the finest exhibition of
the game that has been seen here for
many long day. Another meeting,
with both men trimmed down a trifie
finer and under clean break rules,
should be even more attractive.

MORE PLAYERS OUT
FOR TOWNIE TEAM

They were all out yesterday for the
Townie practise. And there were some
new faces seen on the field. That is,
the faces were seen until the lineup
started, then there was nothing to see
but a large mass of striving, bucking
masses of padded bodies.
One Of the latest of the oIdtimers
to turn out was VIII Prestidge. He is
a great man at center, being very
powerfully built and having a keen
knowledge of the g lme. Also Everett
Richardson turned out, as prophesied,
and stated that he was sure of being
properly fit by a week from Sunday.
Jim Coulter talks less and sells more
sewing machines since the football sea
son has started. He is so eager to get
out to practise that he cuts out clauses
A, B and C in his scheduled arguments.
This enables him to get out to practise
and it is whispered that the Coulter
meat bill is rising rapidly. The foot
ball management ought to get COM
mission from the meat markets.
But the Marines are out for practise
Just as eagerly They are equally de-
termined to make good when they butt
up against the Townie line week from
Sunday. Every afternoon they are out
on Atkinson Park and go through much
hanahana. Long punting, catches for
marks. forward passing, straight and
cross bucking and trick plays are all
worked out to the despair of the Camp
Very commissariat and the deleetation
of Sergeant Corey. who sees his team
getting in rafting good shape.

THREE SPORTSMEN
WILL RIDE A RACE

Charlie Addison, the we'll known ath-
lete and bicycle rider, has been receiv-
ing challenges lately and he has ac-
copied them. After a little talk and
fixing things up, it has been definitely
arranged to ride fve-mile bicycle race
round the Kapiolani track a week from
Sunday, November A.
The other two riders will be Joe
Bisho and Simpson Decker. Both the
latter are swift riders with plenty of
stamina and condition to back them
and the triple race should be a grand
event.
All three men are well and favorably
known as sportsmen and the race is
purely for fun. There has been plenty
of friendly joshing over the capabili-
ties of the three and this has tended
to keen rivalry. All of them will do
their best and those who journey out
to the park to see the race will GER
tainly see zinnanmonlalla.
