REGARDING THE POLICIES
OF THE OFFICE.
TO REPOPULATE THE STREAMS
In This Will Have the Cooperation
of the National Government and
Declares a Closer Relation of the
People and the Office.

State Game Warden w. D. Houser,
of GAINESVILLE, was in the city for a
short time this morning, for the pur-
pose of getting before the Tennessee
Press Association on matters in con-
nectior with tbs fish and game Of the
state. He had to return to Nashville
at IL o'clock, but while here gave ex-
preston to the policies of the office
of game warden with regard to the
protection of the fish and game of the
state that i'll be pleasing to Maury
countians, and particularly those
specially interested IN the repopula-
ton of the fish in the streams
throughout the county and this Sec
ton
Mr.. Houser is most pleasing gen.
tleman and at once impresses his
hearers with mis- sincerity on the mat
ter of fish and game protection. He
stated that Oh or about the first Of
June he would have a public state,
ment to make with reference to con-
ditions as lie finds them and the pol
icies of the Office under his admins
tration.
1t is his purpose to have confer
ence at an carly date with the Middle
To- CHI
ton, and al! others interested with a
view to discussing plans and condl-
tions whereby the cooperation Of all
would be assured in The desired end.
He said:
I'VE have the best streams in the
United States, and there is no reason
why there should not be an abun-
dance of fish in them all if they were
properly perfected by the impartial
enforcement Of the laws we already
have, though there might be some
changes thai would result to an ad-
vantage. / desire the re-population
of the streams to the extent that
there will De an abundance of fish,
and in this | will have the co-opera-
ton of the national government, hav-
ing already been assured of that, and
want all the people tc feel that am
their official to command"
Mr.. Houser returned to Nashville
at II o'clock.

.PRfSSGROVf'S OPENING.
Was AusplCiOus Affair. Store Pre-
scented Beautiful Appearance.

R. Pressgrove's Fall opening last
| Friday and Saturday was fully up to
the high standard of excellence
achieved by his store-a store with
more thar ordinary for its ar
tistic arrangement and beauty. Mr..
Pressgrove's achievements and sue
| cesses as a merchant are little less
than remarkable, but a splendid reason
could have beer seen for them in look
ing in upon his very attractive estab-
| lishment at this time. The brilliant
decorative skill seen in his show win
dow, where flowers of autumn = all
hues, with ferns, and butterflies nest
ling thereon, was a picture of almost
wondrous beauty and will linger in the
memory of all who had the good for
tune to see it, for months, as a work
of perfection. A more fitting scene
could hardly have been chosen for the
dainty toilettes and for the superb ere.
ations of millinery displayed.
Misses Mary Hall, Beulah Gwin and
Pole Dogan were smiles to everybody
and seemed to know exactly what to do
and what to say in displaying the Won
ders of fashion which their skill had
created or had been purchased from
the best markets.
mere were Tile new shapes Ill tuc
Tango - Turkey Trot," and all the
latest shades, which combined trim
mings in colors of carnadine, indigo
blue, CASTLE blue, duck green, mordore
brown and c~irof1ee. The rapid sale of
these beautiful creations proved just
how popular this department is, and
never before on the opening day did
the sales equal those of this event.
Lovely carnations were given each
lady as a souvenir by little jamie Rice,
daughter of the proprietor.
The beautiful ready-to-wear suits
next claimed the attention of the en-
thusiastic ladies, and in this line was
found everything that could possibly
be desired by women and children. The
one-piece gowns of navy blue and diff
ferent shades with plaid trimmings
were especially attractive. New grays
in crepe meteor, the new sport coats in
chincinna were most attractive, as
were also the plaid skirts with green
coats. Broadcloths are being shown
and are very strong. The sport coats
of green with red collars are just. the
thing, are all the other attractions of
this department.
This strictly Ladies Store" is
much appreciated by the ladies of this
section and they show their interest in
it by visiting it and by their exceeding
ly liberal purchases. 1t is a very en-
chanting place at any time, and it is
Mr.. Pressgrove's policy to always be
in the best of humol and to make all
happy and joyous who come about him.
On these opening days there were
many ladies from a distance to witness
the display. The Sentinel vouches for
the statement that the --latest" in
hats can be bought at Pressgrove's at
about so per cent of what it will cost in
Memphis or any other city.

.4MENDIN'G CITY CHARTER

In another column of this issue viii be seen the amendments
the cry council is seeking to make to Grenadas charter. 1t is the
evident purpose OF the council to satisfy the demands of those who
are insisting on d cuncission form of government without giving
them a commission form OF government.
The amendments fix the terms of all city officers at four years
instead OF two, limits the aldermen to four. one from the East and
one from the West ward and two from the city at large; the city
clerk is to be the assessor and collector of taxes, and the marshal,
city clerk and all other officers ire to be appointed by the council.
a recall is provided for any officer or officers appointed by the
council. but in order to submit a recall, a petition signed by one
third of the qualified electors instead of one-fouth, as provided in
the legislative act, is required.
Our citizens should study the proposed amendments carefully
and if no legal protest is filed against them they will become a part
of our charter, There are some good features in the amendments
and with wise action on the part of the electorate of the town, should
