House Cleaning Time.

This sudden plunge into Summertime has
aroused the housewife into quick action for
house cleaning. A hundred and one things
press her for immediate attention. If any
papering is contemplated now Is the
convenient time to do it, while the rooms
are in disorder anyhow. Don't buy ex-
pensive paper; it doesn't pay. You tire of
it too quickly and you hate to tear it of be-
cause you have paid SO much for it. Come
and see our pretty papers at six. seven and
eight cents. Ifyou don't like them don't
buy them. c. n. BEARD.

/ Is there general dissatisfaction in
your city government?
/ do not find it so. The acts of
all public servants are criticised
more or less by people who. after
making the criticisms say frankly.
1T don't know that | could do any
better
! Is this dissatisfaction due to the
| form of government?
1t would be the same under any
form. II there were fewer men it
might be more econmically admins
tered and it might not. A body of
several council men is apt to be
cumbersome, but they act as a check
upon each other against blunders.
Is it your opinion that removal
of the bad social conditions would
remedy the city government?
If the above question refers to the
so-called social evil, it is not to be
seriously considered. At least it is
not trouble of the first magnitude
So long as parents bring up children
in idleness or half idleness, and do
not train them in habits of industry
and wholesome love for work they
will put in their time at something
else and many of them will eventu-
ally recruit the ranks of the social
outcasts whether the city government |
makes provision for them or not. No
matter what the form of government, |
the supply of this class is governed
by the parents and their mode of |
bringing up their families. Once |
brought up wrong their energies will
find expression, and it will be adapt
ed to the environments. 1t Is an |
individual question, home question,
not municipal.
4. Do you find any evidence Of
graft in the conduct of the city
business?
None directly. Very little in the
avenues of business done with theE
city government. A striving to get I
certain city business at good prices
is as far as it seems to come under
this heading.

Marion, May 4-(SpeciaD.-Th trus- tees of the Marion institute at their an- nual meeting have just adopted plans to erect a handsome memorial hall in honor of James Thomas Murfee. distinguished education and founder of the institute. For 45 years Colonel Murfee devoted his life to advancing the cause of education in Alabama and the trustees deemed it fitting that some enduring memorial be erected at Marion where ne iabored for a years, first as president of Howard college for IS years, and afterwards for 1e years as founder and superintendent of the Marion institute
 The memorial will be in the form of a hall of residence for students and will be the first of the new group of buildings being designed for the enlargement of the foundation
 The trustees also appointed commit tee to plan for a quarter centennial cele- bratfon next November at which distin- guished guests from the north and east as we'll as the south will be invited to participate. A general reunion of all stu dents educated at Marion is being planned for this quarter centennial celebration of the institute which is also the roth anni- versary of the educational foundation itself.
