AUS FLYING MACHINE IN OUR SHOW
Tiny Tots Thanksgiving

Tuesday afternoon, December the
sixth, the mothers and a few speci
al friends OF the kindergarten chill
dren at the convent, were invited
to an entertainment. Dressed In n
Puritan costume OF black dress
with white cap, neckerchief and
cuffs, you couldn't imagine
prettier sight. The dear little faces
beaming with the pleasure OF
showing the work OF the careful
sisters.
One could not help remarking on
the unconscious manners, so pos
sessed and graceful as each little
maid gave her speech. The histori
cal part will be remembered by all
present as well as the ones who
gave the story Of the first Thanks
giving. The hymn In French was
fine, with perfect pronunciation
and expression.
Unless one La directly interested
. or connected with the sisters they
' cannot appreciate the advantage OF
having such a training school In
our midst. A number of young
ladies are studying French and
music and find their advancement
very rapid.
. The playground in the afternoon
Is alive with the girls playing
games and doing organized work
Today the people are finding that
play L. as necessary or more SO
than so much study. A healthy
trained body stimulates the mind
and gives a Joy OF living.

DALTON VOTERS WILL
PROBE CITY ELECTION?

DALTON, Ga, Dec 16.-The city is be-
ing, considerably shaken over pronounced
rumors of contest of the recent city
election. While no contest has been
filed with Ordinary Boyle. it is known
that an investigation is being made by
men interested in the result, and that
certain alleged irregularities connected
with the election have cropped out.
The contest could not, however, change
the result in the election of ]. F. Harris
for mayor. but it could change the result
of the election for recorder and of one
or more councilrlen.
According to reports current on the
streets. the Investigation has brought to
light the rumor that q illegal votes were
cast in the First y, I'D. Only seven votes
decided the election of the council man
there, and the new count, If one is made,
may mean the election of John Willis over
his opponent, Walter Smith.
1t is, however, in the recorders race
that the greatest interest lies. John r.
Tarver defeated Judge ]. A. Longley for
reelection by only one vote, and his ma
jority in the h irst, ward, was an enormous
one. On the other hand, it is said that
two of the downtown wards which gave
Judge Longley a substantial lead over
Mr.. Tarver, closed the polling places at
O'Clock, an hour earlier than the other
polling places were closed, which means,
according to the opinion of several local
attorneys, that the entire vote of the
two wards would be thrown out.

CARE OF SHEEP

Some people actually believe that
sheep can live without water. No such
thing. 1t is true that sheep in certain
seasons can i've for days without be-
ing given water. but it is because they
get the dew on the grass. Sheep
should always be turned out to pasture
early in the morning for this reason.
and they should always have beside
plenty clean water. They viii not
thrive without it.
One of our neighbors has a flock of
so Cotwolds and while the sheep has
about as little sense as any animal I
know of, he has trained his animals
to come in out of the wet When a
storm approaches suddenly he gees to
the pasture and gives a lSud, pecu-
liar yell. repeating it two or three
times, when the sheep all come trot-
ting homeward to be confined in the
shed. He accomplished this training
by giving them a bit of tasty feed in
the shape of roots. shelled corn and
occasionally a handful of salt, and
it saves leg work.

FARMERS TURN DOWN
OFFER OF n. Y. BANKERS
Montgomery County, Alabama,
Planters Oppose Cotton
Holding Plans
INV Associated Press.)

MONTGOMERY, Ala, Dec. 16-Taking
the Initiative, so far as this state is con-
cerned Montgomery county farmers in a
mass meeting, this afternoon emphati-
cajly declined to accept the offer of the
New York syndicate of bankers headed
by COL Robert NJ Thompson, to adj
vance SOS a bale upon all cotton. =
Objection was~raised to this cotton hold
ing plan on the ground that 1t is unwise
for the southern farmers to give up title
to their cotton as the syndicate contract
provides.
The New York bankers offered to ad-
vance s25 on each 500-pound bale issuing
in return an equity certificate The farm
er was given the right to sell this GER
tificate at the market price of the cot
ton at any time up to January /, 1913, the
gum he was to receive being the then
market price for the staple, less $25, plus
81 storage charges, plus % per cent OF
the advance over the price OF the cotton
at the time the certificate was issued.
Gov. Emmett ONeal and Commissioner
of Agriculture Kolb are both said to have
favored accepting the offer.
At the. meeting here this afternoon 1t
was stated that southern banks are in
unusually good conditions and the inves-
tigation shows they are ready to advance
as much as $95 upon the oO0-pound bale.

LAGRANGE WILL TAX

LAGRANGE, Ca, Dec. 16.-Near-beer
saloons in this city, beginning with jan
uary 1, will be compelled to pay a IL
cense fee of 1850, raise Of $500 over the
old license fee, If they wish to continue

city council. 1t was decided upon at a
special meeting of the city fathers Fri
day.
The new clause to the city ordinance,
which provides for the higher license,
also prohibits the serving of beer in pool
rooms or restaurants by the saloon keep
ers. The mayor is given discretionary
20 Wers as to fines to be inflicted on vto-
lators of this provision.

plication with the city clerk and the
city clerk in turn notify the city coun-
cilmen of such application, and seven
days thereafter the city fathers are
given authority to act upon the applica
ton. The application must be in writ

a MIssouRr STORY

Near Exeter, Missouri, a farmer' dis
covered a large gray eagle, swooping
down upon one of his lambs. He ran
towards the bird but arrived just as the
lamb was being lifted off the ground,
firmly clutched in, the eagles talons.
He grabbed the lamb by the legs and
struck at the eagle, but was dragged
along the ground more than fifty feet
and into barbed wire fence which so
lacerated his hands and face that he
was obliged to let go his hold. The
eagle never wavered in its de-
termination, however, and sailed away
with the lamb and soon disappeared
from sight.
