There is a small island called Tory.
on the coast of Ireland, about which
hangs many picturesque legend. The
islanders are all fishermen. In olden
times Tory was lonely place and a
hard place to get to and from. No
priest lived there. The islanders were
all good Catholics. and not to have a
priest handy to baptize them, to marry
them and to shriye them subjected
them 10 constant trials.
The only sacred thing they had was
the nuns grave" Long ago during
a storm the body Of a nun was washed
up on the island. That was the first
time the people there saw nuns
habit. The leathern girdle and beads
made them think that there was some.
thing sacred about the body. They
prayed to be instructed what to dc
with it. and a voice told them that II
was the body Of holy nun and they
must bury it where they had found it.
They did so, and to this day not a boat
ever puts out to fish without handful
of earth from the nuns grave" to pre-
serve the fishermen from drowning
Many years ago there lived ON Tory
island young fisherman named Fer
gus Tyrone and fisher lass named
Eileen O'Connor. They were simple
couple. growing up In small compass
and loving each other with that fer
vor which is to be found in those who
live lives close to nature. They were
of the same age, having both been
born on st. Patrick's day. Fergus.
though but twenty years of age az
the time the incident / am about to
narrate took place, was hardy young
fellow and. however stormy the wealth
err, never feared to go out to fish in
his boat when any other craft was on
the water. But Eileen did not fear
for him, because sue would never let
him 90 without first taking a handful
of earth and, after praying the holy
nun TO protect him, depositing it in
the stern Of his boat.
This simple couple wished TO be
married on their twentieth birthday,
which was St Patricks day. OF
course, and Fergus had induced
priest from the mainland to agree to
come over on that day and marry
them. Fergus was to row over in his
boat early in the morning Of the wed
ding day. take the priest to the island
and bring him back after the cere-
uanpv had hapn T.arf0rTupd
Several days before st. Patrick's
day the lovers began to watch the sky

CITY TO have
A SPECIAL CAR
IN STATE TOUR
use OF CAR WAS OFFERED
Board Of Trade viii Act On
Matter Soon

If plans now contemplated mature,
the Americus Board of Trade will be
represented by an official car in the
Round-the-State Tour which will be
conducted in the interest of the An
dersonville-Thomasville Route and its
affiliated branches this fall.
Though no official action has been
taken by the Board of Trade on the
suggestion of designating an official
car for the 'Round-the-S -State-Tour,
there is little doubht but that this
action will be taken at the next meet
ing of that body, as sentiment thus
far expressed has been unanimously
in favor of having the Board of Trade
thus recognized and represented in
this important and general develop
ment idea.
A we'll known local automobilist has
voluntarily offered his car to the
Board of Trade to be used in this ca
pacity in the tour that will be con-
Quoted this fall. The suggestion made
by this public spirited business man
deserves to be given recognition and
to be acted upon as it doubtless will
be at the next meeting of the Board
of Trade.
In case this plan is carried out the
car will be decorated with flags and
pennants and a big placard showing
that it represents the Americas
Board of Trade, and it will in all prob
ability carry along with it a guam
tity of the circulars issued by tn
Board of Trade, so many of which hav,
been profitably distributed recently
The plan suggested is to make the
car typically representative Of the i'm.
portant organization whose name 4
will bear.
AS the tour ends in Savannah just
before the Grand Prize and Wander
bilt Automobile Races are held, there
will he a large number of local auto
mobilists to go on the tour and tC
see the races in Savannah. A num-
Der of automobile enthusiasts have al
ready expressed themselves as deter
mined to enter the tour and to see
the races. The Board of Trade will
endeavor to arouse all possible inter
est in getting a large number of ca
owners to join in the tour.

achieved as the death sentence of the

Mr.. Alexander, of DeKalb, who has
led the supporters Of the bill, thinks
that it may pass the house following
the conclusion of the appropriations
measure. and that afterward, sufficient
time may be offered for it's passage
by the senate. Such success for he
bill now. however, is only possible and
not probable.
The number of days consumed by
the appropriation bill, and the course
pursued by the rules committee, will

Atlanta, Ca, August 8.-Practically

subcommittee of twelve members on
congressional reapportionment agreed
Monday afternoon on twelve congress
sional districts for Georgia, as pro-
vided for in the Federal reappor-
tionment bill that passed the United
States senate last week.
The bill, as agreed on by the sub
committee, provides for one district
with population as low as 1915,
while another Immediately adjoining
it contains 243,S01, a difference in ex-
cess of $4,000. The average for twelve
districts under the 1910 census is a
fraction over 1900. Thus the small
est district is $4,000 below the aver
age and the largest is 26,000 above it
The other ten range between 203,7S5
and 224983.
The Fifth district, embracing Allan
ia. is composed of Fulton, Dekalb,
Rockdale and Clayton counties. New
ton and Walton are transferred -
the Fifth to the Eighth. Campbell and
Douglas go from the Fifth to the

eight counties.
