SCHOOL NOTES.

Inasmuch as the citizens of Johnson
City should be interested in and kept
in close touch with their public schools
our>worthy superintendent, Prof. Ut
terback, recently appointed a commit
tee from the Senior aad Sophomore
CLASSES for the purpose Of compiling
school notes OF interest to the general
public. The Comet has kindly con-
scented to pu9.ish these notes free of
charge, for which kindness the faculty
and news committee of the schools are
duly grateful,
Prof Estes, county superintendent
of schools, and Mr.. Brading, secretary
and treasurer of the local Board Of
Education, we're recent visitors in the
schools. They expressed themselves as
being we'll pleased with the character
of the work being done, and also with
the appearance and accomplishments
Of the graduating class.
Some time ago the faculty Of the
high school inaugurated series of lee
lures to be given about every second
week by citizens of Johnson City who
were interested vitality and deeply in
the problems of education. To this re-
quest from the faculty several public
spirited citizens have answered, and as
a result we have had the pleasuFe-of
listening to several splendid addresses.

TRATE LECTURES
CAMPAIGN ON IN EARNEST.
Sentiment Changing Rapidly IN
Favor Of Isseing Bonds as the
Election Approaches.

The good roads movement is on in
earnest and work in the interest of the
same is going rapidly on. M. o. Ell
bridge, road expert Of the Good Roads
Bureau, Department of Agriculture,
Washington, d. G., has been secured
to give illustrated lectures on road
building, and will begin on Monday
next, February Is, at Jonesboro. From
there he goes to Limestone on the Is;
on the II at Conkling; on the IS at
Boones Greek, and on the 10 at Johnson
City. His lectures will be illustrated
by SteriOpticon views.
The county commissioners will
meet at Jonesboro on Saturday to
confirm the plans for paving certain
roads as agreed upon, as follows: From
johnson City, ten miles out toward
Fordtown; from Jonesboro, ten miles
out toward Fall Branch; three miles
out from Telford, and seven miles out
from Limestone.
Sentiment in regard to the movement
has been changing very rapidly, and
the majority Of the farmers are said to
be in favor of the plans. A good big
crowd is urged to attend the meeting
at Jonesboro on next Monday and hear
Mr.. Eldridge,
Rumors have been started that prop
erty inside the corporate limits Of
Jonesboro and johnson City is exempt
from taxation for road improvement
II is misstatement of facts, as no
property is exempt from assessment
for this purpose. The towns will pay
more than the balance of the county.
Good roads will largely enhance the
value of every farm in the county, and
no man will find the tax as burden
some as mud and impossible roads.

JUDGE LAMB HAS RESIGNED
Felix w. Moore, Of Union City,
Prosecutor of Night Riders,
Succeeds to the Vacancy.

Nashville, Tenn, Feb. Judge Ar
thur B. Lamb, of the court of civil ap-
peals, today rendered his resignation
and late this afternoon Felix w. Moore,
of Union City succeeded to the vacan-
cy. Judge Moore will go at once to
Jackson to take his seat, assuming the
bench either tomorrow or the next day
He will sit until the August election
1910.
Judge Lamb resigned because his
private interests were sorely needing
his attention. 1t is understood thathe
contemplated the step some time ago,
but wis discussed by Gov. Patterson
and other friends. The call of his pri-
yate interests, it is said, was reinforced
by Mrs. Lamb who was dissatisfied
with the idea of breaking up the home
at Paris. Judge Lamb was appointed
to the civil appeals court at the time of
its creation and was re-nominated over
Frank P. Hail. in the primary and was
reelected in the August election.
Judge Moore recently has been con-
nected with the prosecution of the Reel
foot Lake cases, having been appointed
for this work. by Gov. Patterson. He
has been member of the Union City
bar over thirty-fve years and some
thirty years ago served Union City as
mayor for two terms.

RETRO OSPECTIVE, COMEDY
OR DRAMA, WHICH,

A perspective analysis of the harmo-
nious blending of ancient practices and
modern progressiveness, the supreme
indifference to certain conditions and
an unctious desire on the other hand to
appear as of some Importance, presents
a ludicrous picture, one to ponder and
smile over in ones saner moments.
Accomplishments from self-imposed
responsibilities, and accomplishments
from being forced by the everlasting
and persistent demands of ain outraged
public are two very different PROPOSE
tions, and the part of being forced to
to do thing naturally takes away the
glory and honor from those who do it.
You wonder what we are driving al.
We marvel at our own audacity in
tackling thing we know so little Of
your city-but as there is such strik-
ing similarity in all mankind, and es-
pecially in perfunctory public officials,
that we are compelled to make the an
alogy and. to draw certain conclusions
from our knowledge gained from expe-
rience acquired in other climes. The
old proverb of Henry Clay, Il have but
one lamp by which my feetare guided,
and that is the lamp of experienced =
easily sustains our conceptions as we

The basket ball game, Senior VS..
Sophomore and Freshman combined,
January 30, resulted in an overwhelm-
ing defeat of the Seniors. 1t might be
said, however, that the game might
have been more evenly contested had
it not been that two of the Seniors were
out of the game. The score stood u
" for Fresh-Sophs.
On the night of the of February the
same teams tried their mettle again in
hotly-contested game, with all of
both teams present and playing the
best ball that was in him. Those who
were not at the game missed a treat, as
the score will partly disclose. AT the
close of the first half the score stood 5
to 5, In the last, half the Fresh-Sophs
were able to forge ahead somewhat,
leaving the figures on the board at the
close of the game 10 to I for Fresh

WILL SING IN
JOHNSON CITY
NIGHT OF FEBRUARY 23D
A Rare Musical Treat Secured at
Large Expense-Will Sing at
Hippodrome Opera Hoese

The above two attractions in lyceum
will be presented to the Johnson City
public through the efforts of the Ladies
Aid Society of the MunSey Memorial
church. The DeKorm Quartette, or
ganized by Reginald DeKorm, the
great genius of opera, will be presented
on Monday night, February %, and
Ellen Beach Yaw on Tuesday night,
the %, at the Hippodrome.
Ellen Beach Yaw, on February q,
goes to the University of Tennesse
under $500 guarantee, and only as y
fill in date in going from one city to
another are we able to get her.
Ellen Beach Yaw is the sensation of
the day in song. The worlds renown-
ed and famous prima donna, the great
est living soprano. No one can afford
to miss hearing Miss Yaw. It's like
missing an opportunity to hear Patti.
You'll regret it forever afterward.
People may say we exaggerate in our
praises of these two attractions, but
the writer has lived in the largest cities
for many years, has heard DeKorm,
and the leading singers of the country,
and can truthfully say there are no
better.
The price of $3.50 for best seats is
very low for these attractions--no more
than the regular price of orchestra
chairs in any leading theatre in all
cities. Don't miss it, you may never
have another opportunity to hear these
two, or any considered as good. There
are none better.

JOHNSON CITY, TENNESSEE THURSDAY. FEBRUARY IL 1909

the good, smart and intelligent folks
who demand the better things of life.
A good street railway system, built
from mercenary motives, but neverthe-
less a public benefaction, but it came
without special effort or influence. A
good light system, not invited or en-
couraged except to give it valuable
franchise, not even competence for
the city's benefit. We have railroads,
but they just came, too, because we
happened to be in their path, and if we
get any benefit from them, il is from
the fact of their being here, and not
from the motive which prompted them
to come. We have cement sidewalks,
a large per cent. volunteer, not on ac-
count of the city'S official activity. We
have also sidewalks and crossings, al
most impossible, with a few stepping
stones which lead to better walks fur
ther along, but they are there and
without any special activity or interest
on the part of the city's official body.
We have a few scattering arc lights,
but only whenever there has been pub
lie clamor and pull enough to get one,
while the ordeal in voting each one
cost at least SIG a piece, for it takes that
much to hold a board meeting, while
many, very many public places in ac-
tual need of lights, the absence of
which is crying shame, but as there
has been one persistent demand from
the public-perhaps the public is tired
also-there has been nothing done. We
have paved streets, but after the people
agreed to pay for them, and long after
the discussion had been worn thread
bare with insistent demands, and near
ly after one generation has passed
away. And we have factories, whole
sale and retail stores, just come, con-
venient and without any encourage
ment or special inducement, except
natures opportunity. Fortunate city.
| We have also-but here let us draw
the curtain aside, for there are other
good things which we have with us,
perhaps traditional, but nevertheless
they are here. The picture! We see
Johnson City-no, not johnson City,
but Johnson's Tank, where trains STOP
ped for. their engines to take water,
with few scattering houses here and
there, and with COWS grazing along
the public highway Next we hear of
Johnson's Station, enough houses, cows
and hogs to cause trains TO stop and to
have small station and TO take on
passengers. 1t soon grew large
enough-just happening SOTO drop
the station, and it was called Johnsons,
with many more houses, and stores,
and cows, and hogs. Behold! The
city of today. Thriving, hustling, bus
tling city of ten thousand people, thou
sands of houses, where once but one,
like a lone sentinel, stood under the
great arched blue dome, undisturbed
except for the tinkling of bell here
and there on the neck of some gentle
bovine, and the grunt of the hogs.
A modern, wide-awake city of today,
i n
its traditional antiquities, for the low
ing herd may be seen gently browsing
along the public highways, and the
hogs-oh, so many, many more, still
grunting in their pens Forgive us
we don't mean it, It's the best we car
do. The curtain falls and we listen tC
the orchestra while waiting for tht
next act.
