TUBERCULOSIS on TIE RUN
The Aroused Interest Of the People
win Drive il From the State /

Tennessee for a number Of Years
has bad an unfayorable reputation
regarding tuberculosis. Through
out the country it was generally
known that tuberculosis had its
highest death rate Of all the states
OF the union in Tennessee. This
to a large measure, hindered i'm
migration into this state, because
of this high death rate from tuber-
culosis. Tennessee is about to
throw off this uLsavory reputa-
ton. IL is not due to the unhealthy
climate that tuberculosis has gained
such Roadway, but rather to the
indifference and apathy Of the peo-
pie to the disease. The Tennessee
Anti tuberculosis Association is
arousing a keen interest in the
movement to stamp out tubercu-
Iosis. One Of the means used, is
the sale of the Red Cross Christ
mas Seals. A larger number Of
people have their attention focused
on the need for individual cooper
alton during the seal campaign
more than at any other time.
II might be interesting for the
people of Huntingdon to know
just how many seals were sold in
this town. Rev. George L. John
son was agent for the sale of the
seals in this town through the hoI-
iday season, and disposed of $50
seals. While this is a creditable
showing, we hope that many more
will get behind the movement and
help the State Association pass
some good legislation through the
present assembly.
The State Association is willing
to cooperate in every possible
way with the several towns in the
state so that it may be possible to
say that Tennessee is wide-awake
and active in driving tuberculosis
from its midst.
The Office of the State Associa-
ton is at 522 Cole Building, Nash
vile, Tenn, where you are urged
to write for Information sou de-
sire on the state campaign.

TWO KINDS OF DEBTS


The poor and ambitious farmer
should ayoil debt as he would
the "Oll Harry" if that debt
be for Injuries Of living ex-
pensesA One Of the great curses
Of the south has been the depend
ence Of so many farmers upon a
crop yet vnnade for their daily
subsistence. The man VINO would
get ahead must not get in the habit
Of eating and wearing out things
he has not paid for, and certainly
not mortgage IDS future for mere
pleasures Of dissipation.
This warning against debt does
not apply, however, to debts Of in
vestment. Indeed, we bolieve in
debts Of this kind. If a man can
buy piece ofllnd on credit, make
enough off Of it to pay the interest
and something on the land, and
can furnish himself d home which
may be increasing in value all the
time. he should certainly do it.
Such a debt is a sign of thrift and
0rise, and the opportunity to
a purchase is open to
Agood reputation III al
Immunity in the south.
Ese is needed, or an
anything which will
e enough more
without it to

respectively, are elated today over tha
early prospect of the county

Wilmington purchasers. Some of the
banks are already willing to sell the
bonds and the other banks are eX-
pecteG to aid in the sale.
When the Levy Court advertised
the bonds for sale no bids We're re
ceived. Then a New York brokerage
firm made a proposition to the Levy
Court to take the bonds. provided all
the money did not have to he paid at
once, the proposition being to de-
posit so much money at once and
part of the balance each month until
the whole amount is paid.
A Philadelphia concern made a
like proposition. but IL, too, failed.
Then the local bankers got busy

the two properties at a total cost Of
S25.16, in addition to the fee paid to
the Engineering Department of $500.
1T was not shown that the city
surveyors and regulators, or any two
OF them, regulated this fence. Nor
was it shown that there are any uni
form regulations for partition fences,
made by the city surveyors and regul-
lators.
The word regulate is one of
broad import, and means to adjust by
rule, method or established mode.
1T was therefore incumbent upon
the city surveyors and regulators un-
der the power granted in Section 1873
to regulate partition fences by rules,
methods or modes. to be by them
established, subject however, to the
limitations contained in Section 1873
which are: first, that the fences shall
be made in the manner generally
used; secondly, that they shall not
exceed in cost the sum of S25.00 for
every hundred feet in length.
1T was, in my opinion, clearly the
intent of the Legislature in passing
Section 1873, that partition fences
ShOulu uc uulll anu Mdluldlubu dI-
cording to a general rule, method or
mode to be established by the city
surveyors and regulators.
And in the absence of any such
regulations it is impossible to con-
ceive how one man can charge an
other man for a partition fence not
erected under regulations, but as the
other man thought proper to erect it
am, therefore, of the opinion thai
no action will lie to recover one-hali
of the costs of making a partition
fence in the absence of regulations
made by the city surveyors and regu
llators.
1T appears from the undisputed evi
dence in this case that. the cost O.
erecting this partition fence exceeded
S25.0O per hundred feet in length. AnC
also it further appears that the tive
owners did not otherwise agree in ac
cordance with Section 1873 of the Cit!
Charter. am, therefore, of the opin
ion that no action will line in thi
case for the further reason that tn
cost exceeded the limit permitted b!
law.
