COMMENCEMENT
Sixteen Young Women and Four Young
Men Given Diplomas by Board Of
Education of South Canon.

ject of common interest He paid
fine tribute to the school authorities,
patrons and students as he had been
brought in contact with them in South
Canon and said the high character of
the schools there was the result of
the general ambition there to make
them second to none In usefulness
and efficiency. Prof Smith asserted
that the community had a right to ex-
pect much of its high school graduates
and that nowhere was the responsible
ity greater than in South Canon.
There is nothing higher or more ex-
alted, according to his dictum, than
service, and those fitted by education
to perform it owe a duty to mankind.
The Master came to minister to 9TH

1911 to reverence the great things

The piano solo by Miss Gladys Cor
ey was a masterpiece of its kind and
won general applause Although the
selection was a most difficult one its
rendition was perfect in execution.
The presentation of the diplomas was
made by President z. H. Stinemeyer,
CT the board of education at the con-
clusion of an address that was re-
plete with good advice to their reci-
p.ents. After the benediction by Rev
DR.. T. B. Stafford, pastor of the First
Baptist church, the commencement
exercises of the South Canon high
school for 1911 were at an end and
the senior class had lost its identity
to become a part OF the graduate body.
The motto of the class was "Haut Ye

TOWN CLOCK
DON'T STRIKE
FIRST THE HOUR AND THEN THE
QUARTER PERIODS FAIL
OF DUTY.

Just what is the matter with the
town clock in the court house tower
seems to be a mystery. Sometimes
the regular quarter periods are noted
in the regular way by striking, and
then again that fails and it is the reg,
ular hour periods that are struck.
Some claim that it is the fault of
the mechanism of the clock, and 9th.
ers say that it is because it is not
wound regularly Whatever it is
should be corrected. Many people In
the city rely on it for their standard
of time, while the people from the
country always look to it for their
time when in the city. There is a
guarantee on the clock from the
clock makers and if it's mechanism Is
at fault they should be required to
make 1t good, and If it is the fault OF
any one who may have charge of its
care then this should be remedied.

QUAIL PROTECTION
ACT OF LEGISLATURE
STRONGER THAN EVER
SPECIAL LICENSE CASE NEVER
PASSED ON BY THE SU-
pREME COURT.
Season Opens the Fifteenth OF No
vember and Under Present Laws
Slaughter of Birds viii Be Much
Less Than in Former Years.

If the law passed by the last leg
is lature regarding the protection OF
quail is enforced there will
be but few who will enjoy the cell
cacy this winter, and if these appear
on the bill of fare of hotels and res
taurants they will be under another
guise. 1t is now lawful in Tennessee
for any person to sell quail no mat
ter how such person or persons came
into possession of the forbidden bird,
and now you must either shoot your
own game or find a friends who is
willing to do it for you free of any
charge whatever.
Several years ago the legislature
passed an act requiring all restaurants
and hotel keepers to take out spec
ial license TO sell quail. The proprie-
tor of the Reed house of Chattanooga
was indicted for violation of this
act but when the matter came before
the criminal court the motion to
quash the indictment was sustained.
The State did not appeal the case and
the supreme court never passed on
the constitutionality of the act. The
court held that if the State could de-
mand special license for selling
quail it could demand a special Ii
cense for selling any other article of
food stuff.
The season opens the 18th of No
vember and it is thought that this is
the widest step toward the protection
of quail that has ever been taken by
any legislature in Tennessee. There
appears to be no way to get around
the provisions of this act and he who
enjoys this delicacy will have to do
his own shooting.
The first and second sections of the
act provides, "That hereafter it shall
be unlawful in this State for any per-
son or persons to buy, sell, ship or
receive for shipment, barter or serve
for profit, or for any other considera-
ton Of value any quail, sometimes
called Virginia partridge, or quail
sold or served under any fictitious
name, and that it shall be unlawful
for any person to trap or shoot any
quail for the market or for sale
The penalty for violation of the
act is fine of from $25 to $50 to-
gether with the costs of the case.

pointed time and was opened with an
old fashioned hymn.
The scripture lesson was read by
Rev. w. w. Pinson, who took for the
occasion the fourth chapter of limo.
thy.
Bishop Kilgo then addressed the
conference, commenting upon the
strength and vigor and deep religious
spirit of the old time hymns, com
mending them to the Methodists, urg-
ing them to avoid the modern mean
ingless hymns. He said that the
modern songs smelled too much of
falcon powder; they were vapid and
insipid, weak and meaningless. 1t
was good thing, he said, that the
modern hymns had choirs to take
care of tenn for they were not strong
enough to stand alone.
Bishop Kllgo said that there was
too much study about the Bible and
not enough study of the Bible. This
kind of study ultimately results In
the establishing of the Instability of
the scholar. But" said the Bishop,
Il will believe in the infallibility of
the Pope before | will believe in the
infallibility of the scholar. For
if | am to believe in the infallibility
of any human agency l prefer one
that has traditions back of him.
when I read the scripture l am
not greatly concerned who wrote it
or to whom it was written. The fact
that it was inspired by the God AL
mighty and was written for all time
and eternity is the fact that con-
Germs us. We should not be concern
ed about the mind of Paul or Mark or
Luke when they wrote, but the mind
of God when He inspired the holy
word 1t is the holy truth of GOD
and when we learn to interpret his
mind we will be able to preach and

The admission into full connection
of a class of eleven young men after
one of the greatest sermons ever
heard by a Methodist conference was
the distinct feature of this mornings
session. Bishop Kilgo's great dis
course to the class will never be for
gotten by those VINO heard it.
The Bishop talked of the great
dignity and power and influence and
honor of the ministry of God. He
said that ii was the highest calling
in the world. That he was an
ambassador OF high heaven, that he
was called of God to preach His word
to all the world. He appealed to the
young men to walk in the ways of
God; to do His will; to forsake for
ever all worldly ambition and be a
of saints who have preached the Cos
pei
Bishop Kilgo declared that Noah
was the first great preacher; that he
had stood between the world and it's
utter humiliation. Elijah was the
first Methodist preacher. He was the
worlds first great circuit rider ana he
rode his mission afoot. He said that
Moses and Noah and Abraham ana
Elijah and Samuel and John the Bap-
fist and John the Apostle and Mar
tin Luther and John Knox and John
Wesley had been the great history
makers of the world.
The sermon was earnest and full
of the most beautiful thoughts. The
Bishop reached the sublimest height
of eloquence in some of his periods
and the conference was stirred from
center to circumference. 1t was
genuine spiritual revival, the spirit of
God was made manifest and no SER
mon could have made more pro"
found impression than did this truly
remarkable deliverance.
Committee reports occupied much
of the time of the conference. All
that were submitted were adopted
without debate. Prof ]. w. B:ister
and Prof. w. R. Webb were appointed
delegates to the great national
convention to be held at Washington
to consider ways and means for the
suppression of the liquor traffic.

the preachers to preach four times
year on temperance. Adopted.
The report as amended was uIani'
mously adopted.
1t was suggested that all persons
present be permitted to vote on the
resolutions but Bishop Kilgo said that
this could not be done. However,
he added, there is no one in this
place who is not heartily in favor OF
those resolutions. The other kind dc
not come to our conferences. We are
the true Christian aristocracy of our
civilization. (Applause.) We must
do something about this question OF
lack of law enforcement. 1t is not a
complaint peculiar to Tennessee. but
lawlessness is prevalent all over the
country. We must have Christian

enforce the laws"

THE WILLIAMS BILL.

Senator Hamp Williams, identified in the upper legislative body as a business man close to the wants of the business interests, has presented n modification of the antitrust law of the state which should receive due consideration.
 When Jeff Davis had the antitrust flaw written into the statutes of Ar. kansas there was general public fight on every form Of big business. The public glamour was for drastic legislation, and it was answered to the extent of prohibiting some insti tutions from doing business here.
 In some instances 1t was case of "cutting off the nose to spite the face Arkansas legislation can never prevent trusts CT monopolies because Arkansas is too small part of tho field territory of these institution1 But Arkansas legislation could be so devised as to protect the weak, and not deprive. the big institutions from doing business here If they want to do business right.
 Senator Iiamp Williams is anything but corporation man He conducts a business close to the people of the country. and aa has their confidence and respect. He has pointed out some mcdifications of that antitrust law which would hold the corporations within control. yet not work hard ship on the people of this state, and hts proposeds change in the present law should have full consideration.
