Citizens Along Memphis 20 Bris-
tOl Highway Enthusiastic

Two days work will be put on
the Memphis-to- Bristol highway
Thursday and Friday, August "A
and is, By the citizens living on
that road. Squires NJ. q. Bryant
and S. Y. Porter and Hon. J. w.
Mckinney are at the head Of this
move and the work will doubtless
be done in fine shape.
The work will begin at Terry's
bridge and extend to Forked
Deer river and all those who live
on that part OF the road are
urgently requested to aid in every
possible way. The citizens, SC
far have volunteered literally as
to hands and teams, about seventy
five hands and fifty teams have
been promised and the committee
have secured three road graders
and three road plows to be used
on these two days.
There will be barbecue dinner
near the work both 'days and the
people have donated enough meat
and other necessities for a big
dinner. The ladies are requested
to be present to aid in arranging
the dinner and lend inspiration
to the good cause, All people
living along this road are expected
to come and bring whatever
implements will be of use in work
in the road, and well filed baskets
for the dinner.
These citizens are to be highly
commended for this splendid
move and it is hoped that this
good start will spread all over the
county.

CALL ISSUED
For Regulars to be in Capital
Tuesday, August IL

As has been predicted, peace
has finally been secured in legis,
lative circles, and an end to the
present prolonged sessions IS in
sight. The democrat steering com
mittee Tuesday called for the reg
ulars to gather in Nashville on
Tuesday, Aug. ~, for the pur-
pose of transacting business neces-
sary for the states welfare, and
then adjourning sine die.
1t is understood that this plan
meets with the approval of many
independent democrats, and that
quorums will be produced in each
house on Aug. -. State Treas
urer Hickerson, an ardent fusion
ist, with Secretary of State Sneed
and Comptroller Wooden, and
Speaker White of the senate, all
independent democrats, are said to
favor this move. Mr.. Hickerson,
its leader, it is said, advocated the
passage of the necessary appro-
priation bills. and will pay out
money under them, despite CLAIMS
that no appropriation bills can be
considered twice at the same SEES
sion, and must be taken up in
extra session. He also thinks
each county should be allowed to
pass only two local bills, and no
other legislation ought to be con-
sidered.
Ii is believed that the rule lin it,
ing each county to two bills will
be amended, for the reason that no
political harm can possibly come
to either faction on purely local
measures, and many counties have
which, require passage at
this session.

Baptist Revival

The revival meeting which is
being conducted at the Baptist
church has created considerable
interest this week. The atten-
dance has not been what it should

doing some excellent preaching
and those who have not attended
regularly have missed spiritual
treat. DIR. Wright is a strong
propounder of the Word and pre-
sents it in a broad and fearless
manner. Services each day at
1880 and s pm. until further
notice. There will be special
service at the church Sunday At
ii o'clock, The pastor will preach
from the subject Of Opportunity. "

COMMERCIAL CLUB
Business Men and Citizens to
Organize Monday

The business men and other
citizens Of the town are to organize
a commercial club at the court
house next Monday night. The
ORGANIZATION is for the purpose Of
d closer relation to exist between
the business men and all citizens
OF the town and letting the out
side world know more Of the
splendid advantages Of Hunting
don and vicinity.
The idea of this kind Of organi-
cation has been in the minds of
some OF the business menof Hunt
ingdon for some time, but no
definite steps had been taken until
this week. Every business man
in town and every progressive
citizen who has been approached
in regard to the matter has agreed
to become an active member and
there will doubtless be an enthusi-
astic meeting held at the court
house Monday night. The names
Of thirty-six men had been pledged
to become members up to We'd
nesday afternoon and many others
who had not been seen are ex-
pected to aid in the movement.
Towns that have ever grown or
nrospered have done SO through
he cooperation and work Of q
we'll organized commercial club,
and Huntingdon is no exception.
Every effort should be made 70
bury the knocker and boost the
booster and there is no better
method in existence than through
an organization of this kind.

hrs. Rebecca HowIey

God in His wisdom and mercy
has seen fit TO call from our midst
Mrs. Rebecca Howley, wife Of w.
HI. Howley, about 10 O'Clock
July BIZ, 1918, al her home near
Cedar Grove.
Although she had been in poor
health for years, suffering from
rheumatism and other diseases,
she would not give up; but, with
the help Of her husband and son
did her work until about three
weeks ago. She was ever of a
cheerful disposition and did all she
could to make life pleasant and
easy for those around her. Her
daughter, Mrs. Amelia Caboway,
was with her most of the time the
past three weeks.
Everything was done that human
hands could do, tut the time had
come to her, as it S )metime sooner
or later will come to us all, when
no human love or help can keep
US here longer, and we must
answer the roll call in the other
world.
Deceased was II years old Dec
ember Is, 1912, and almost her
entire life was spent here in the
sixth district Of Carroll county.
She was a good and patient wife,
a kind and loving mother, an
excellent neighbor and a friend to
all. Thus a place is made vacant
in that home which can never be
filled, and a neighbor is gone
whom we shall all miss, still, when
we recall her sufferings here, we
could hardly,wish to call her back
to suffer again as we know she
must, if she had lived here longer.
But to all who knew her life was
