cording to the amount of noise made
there must have been three or four
hundred tallies registered.
| Marble is becoming quite an amuse-
ment center. With show company
here for three nights, a moving picture
show every night, and dance to wind
up the week with, there was plenty OF
recreation available last week. The
"Dixie Grip company was a much
better show than any seen here for
quite long time and the audiences
each night were large.
Since the publication in The Boos-
ter last week of the mysterious item
referring to forthcoming wedding bells
in Marble, several persons interested
in such matters have been counting up
the couples whom Dame Rumor hath
it are to set up housekeeping. One
young lady counted seven couples who
are soon to pledge the marriage vows.
That's going some for Marble, isn't it?
Now comes the season of the year
when the budding youth lies awake
nights scheming things wherewith to

we have had an era OF stills. Base
ball is next, then will come marbles
and tops, leap frog, swimming, bean
shooters, and the regular, annual list
of boyville sports. But, boys, don't

Throughout tho session there has
been wrnngle and division over the
question OF asking Federal aid. In
deed, II was openly said yester,iav
that had President Taft attended the
convention. as no expected, he would
have been compelled to nnswer q oues-
ton from the floor as to how he
would STAND on the Federal aid propo-
sitton. Oifcers and delegates endeay-
ored to have reporters and CORE
Bpondcnts leave out certain news
about the convention, but what hap
pened was printed.
This was the cause OF Mr. Teylor's
sensational speech. although he was
reminded that the local newspapers
had no good roads axe to grind. These
same newspapers had already been
commended by the convention for their
full and impartial reports

There would have been no news In
the bare publication OF set speeches on

the entire country Is united. But
there was news in the fact that the
convention WAS divided into factions;
that charges and countercharses wero
made; that government officials con-
