STARTED OUT
TO SEE WORLD
YOUNG WHITE BOY LEFT NASH
VILE TO KEEP OUT OF
SCHOOL.

Starting out to see the world all by
himself, a young white boy, giving
his name as Manners, was picked up
at the local railroad station by police
officers and returned to his relatives
at Nashville. Manners is bright and
intelligent youth, of some dozen sum-
mers, and according to his statement
was not much in sympathy with the
efforts of his brothers to palce him in
School, now known as
the Tennessee Industrial school.
When he arrived here he was rather
short on change, and was taken in
charge by local druggist for the
night, afterwards being turned over
to the city authorities. Marshal Nor
gan at once communicated with the
boys relatives at Nashville, and his
return was ordered

STRANGE PARADOX,
MONEY IS PLENTIFUL
COLLECTIONS LOW
TRUSTEES OFFICE NOT CROWD
ED WITH THE GENTLE
TAX PAYER.
KEEP MONEY BUSY WORKING
In Times of Panic Rush to Pay Taxes
Was Phenomenal-Now the Tide
Has Turned and Content Reigns
over Maury.

Hard times mean good tax collec-
tons.
This statement is on its face para
doxial, and is rather hard to accept
as true. However, cold figures, long
mated for their veracity, bear out the
astonishing assertions. The figures
are obtained from the books of Coun-
ty Trustee Elem Thomas.
The Trustees books show that for
the month of November, which has
just passed into history, the total col
lections of the Office this year were
$2,963.OO. This sounds pretty good
as compared with collections for No
vember last year, which totalled but
$2,597.6O. But as compared with No
vember 1907, the collections are mea-
gre indeed, for during that year of
panic and penury the amount collect
ed was $8,4O8.00, or nearly three times
as much as for either of the succeed
ing years.
In 1907 there was general distrust
of the financial institutions, and even
the tried and true stocking wasn't
considered quite good enough to hold
the accrued earnings of many years
of toll. So the thrifty citizen, know
ing that his tax would inevitably fall
due, fastened to the Office of the |
county trustee and checked on his |
bank account for the amount of his |
BY the November of the I
year confidence had been |
restored, the tax payer wanted to find
his money in bank drawing interest,
and he didn't care whether his tax
was paid or not until just the minute
before the penalty was assessed. This
year confidence reigns supreme, the
banks are bullying with coin, and the
AK payer remains serenely away from
he Office of the country trustee, con-
ident that there is time enough yet.
ind oblivious or the bargain counter
'ush after the holidays.
The total collections to Dec. 1, for
he past three years are as follows:
For 1909, $3,S429O.
For 1908, $3,S49.88.
For 1907, S8,4O8.00.
In 1907 the tax books were not
pened until the first Monday in No
ember.

floor, two doors east OF It's present
location, where II has been for thirty
years. Moving a printing Office is
not an easy job, as those who have
had the experience can testify, but
the change was made imperative up
on US because OF increased business,
and OF q class that required up.to
date machinery to handle, and owing
to it's weight and delicate adjust
ments, had to be put upon solid
foundations. We have purchased a
new Babcock Standard, q news and
Job press combined, that is capable
OF printing any job that can posi-.
bly, come to this town, with a speed
and accuracy that heretofore has
been considered beyond country
Office. The press had to. be ordered
especially from the East, which has
delayed US some time In moving.

new dress for the paper, headlines
and all, and The TINES will come
