Board Of Health Issues Card Of
Instruction and Warning

To the People Of Carroll County:
Please do not allow the month
Of May to pass without thoroughly
cleaning up your premises. See
to it that the back yard is cleaner
than the 'front.' Clean out stables
and horse lots, haul out manure or
burn, as the manure pile, privy
vault and garbage heap are the
breeding places of the death deal
ing and germ carriers, the ay.
Destroy their breeding places first,
then keep up the warfare by
screening all outside doors and
windows, trapping, liberal use of
fly paper, poison and swatting.
One fly killed in early spring
means nine millions less in late
Let every family in our
county wage an unceasing warfare
on the fly, the deadly enemy to
human health and happiness and
do our best to exterminate them.
The mosquito is the cause OF
chiils and fever. See tojt that no
stagnant water is allowed around
in barrels, cups, puddles
or otherwise, without being tightly
Or coaloiled. If you do

Very Few Ticks

l. X. Williams, the county tick
inspector, was in Huntingdon Mon
day. He has just returned from
a trip Of several weeks looking af-
ter the cattle in the county. He
says he finds very few ticks; just
occasionally a bunch Of cattle with
a few ticks on them. In speaking
Of the cattle improvement in the
county Mr.. Williams says there Is
hardly a family that doesn't own a
real good milk COW. Five years
ago when he first entered the bust
ness Of inspecting cattle there were
few fine milk COWS as compared
with the present. Then nearly
every family was milking two or
three cows. most Of them very In
ferior or scrub stock. Now the
farmers are taking a pride in their
milk cows and there is some line
cattle in the county.

EXAMINATION NECESSARY
To Secure Position as Fourth
Class Postmaster

The following special from
Washington will be of interest to
those desiring to serve as a fourth
class postmasters:
The United States civil service
commission has issued the final
regulations governing the appoint
ment of postmasters of the fourth
class under the amendatory execu-
tive order Of the president Of May
I. AS has been stated, the con-
sequential phrase in this order,
and the one around which the re-
vocation Of the Taft order of Dc
tober Is, 1912, reyolyes, is:
mo person occupying the posi-
ton Of postmaster Of the fourth
class shall be given competitive
classified status under the provi-
sions Of said order (the Taft order)
unless he has been appointed as a
result Of open competitive exami-
nation, or under the regulations of
November Is, 1919, or of Janua-
ry 90, 1909, or until be is SO APP
pointed. y
The effect Of the foregoing is
that the 1,047 fourth-class post
masters in Tennessee, upon the ex-
piration of their terms of Office,
must take the examination to Sc
cure a classified status, provided
they have not. already taken the
examination under the order Of

plainly what must be done 10 re-
gard to the examinations, showing
that ID appointments religious be-
Iiefs or political affiliations will
not be considered.

A NOTABLE FEATURE
An interesting Illustrated Story
Anent Confederate Reunions

All Of our readers are more OF
less interested ID the great Con
federate reunion, which is to be
held at Chattanooga, Tenn, May
1920. The ranks Of the veterans
are fast thinning out, and each
year the interest in their gather
ings become more intense. The
site for this years reunion is par
ticularly appropriate, as it was the
scene OF some of the most noted
battles of the Civil war. Realizing
the Importance Of this event, the
Democrat will publish a highly in
teresting illustrated article on
these famous battlefelds, written
by James Polk Smartt, historian
Of the Chattanooga hickamauga

HIGH HONORS
I. T. S. Baseball Team Closes 0ui
With Victory

The /. 7. S. closed its most sue
cessful season in baseball with a Z
to 3 victory over Fulton high
school. The game was played
despite a heavy rain and wet
grounds, which made good work
impossible. This being the second
date which had been set for these
teams. 1t was decided to play a
fye-inning game despite the con-
dition Of the field. Bunched hits
in the first inning won the game
for the locals. |. I. s. has played
and won six games this season,
including one from strong team
of Vanderbilt players who de-
feated all other mines they met in
this section. On the strength Of
this record the local boys claim
the preparatory championship of
West Tennessee.
The school has never had better
players and the conduct on the
field has been everything desired.
They were a fine bunch of boys
and we hope they will all be with
us next year.

DURANGO MASONS OBSERVE
MAUNDY THURSDAY

The thirty-second degree Masons of
this city observed Maundy Thursday
by an elaborate banquet at the Stra-
ter hotel at o'clock in the evening.
The feast is an annual celebration to
commemorate the martyrdom of the
Most Wise and Perfect Master"
Maundy Thursday is commemora-
tive of Christ's Last Supper with his
disciples, and the incidents that oc-
CURED there. "Maundy" is derived
from the Latin "Mandatum," corr
mand, so called from the ancient Gus
tom of washing the feet of the poor
OF this day, which was taken &c be
the fulfillment of the new command
ment: "He riseth from supper, and
laid aside his garments; and took u
towel, and girded himself. After that
he poureth water into basin and be-
gan to wash the disciples feet, and
to wip them"
This custom is still observed to some
extent in the Greek and Roman Cath
clio churches. Scottish Rite Masons
use it as referring primarily to the
words of Christ: "A new command
ment give l unto you, that ye love
one another"
On this occasion the Masons of this
high degree elected John w. Win
gate president for the ensuing year
and E. E. Smiley secretary.
Covers were laid for W. S. Pickerill
