GEORGE M'KENHDh
DECLINES TENDER
tOCal POSF0fF|cE
DIS TO OPPORTUNITIES or
THE DIRECTORS OF HIS
BANK.
WILL REMAIN AsCAsHIER THERE
Given a Substantial Increase In sala-
.rv and Unanimously urgeo by the
directors Meeting to Stay Win
Growing Concern.

coorge e. McKennon, recently APP
DointN and confirmed as postmaster
at Columbia, this morning ANNOUNCE
cd that he wuld not accept the place.
Mr. McKennons decision TO re-
main with the Columbia Bank &
Trust Company, of which he has been
cashier since it was organized i've
wears ago, came this morning at the
close of meeting of the directors OF
rho hank. who unanimously voted Mr..
McKennon substantial increase in
salary and urged him to remain with
Lie institution.
Il was with MINCED feelings Of pride
and regret that Mr.. McKennon reach
ed his final conclusion. He was glad
of the testimonial of appreciation
unanimously voted him by the direc-
tors. and regretfui that be was forced
thereby to decline the offer 0f the
postmastersip
For some time, In fact every since
Mr.. McKennon was confirmed as post
master, there has been determined
and insistent effort upon the part Of
the directors and shareholders Of the
bank to get him oremain with that
institution. He has been repeatedly
importuned by them to reconsider.
This movement eliminated this morn
ing in largely attended meeting Of
the directorate at which Mr.. McKenr
non was unanimously urged to remain
with the bank at q substantial In:
crease in pay.
Under all the circumstances Mr..
McKennon felt that to refuse the Of
fer and importuning Of the bank d.
rectorate he would not be doing him
self or the bank full justice.
There is no more popular business
man in Maury county than Mr.. Nc
Kennon. The phenomenal increase
in the business Of the Columbia Bank
& Trust Company since its organiza-
ton is due in no small degree. to the
confidence which the people have in
Mr. McKennn. The news that he will
be with the bank In the future will
be gratifying to the shareholders and
depositors of that institution. He
had been strongly endorsed for post
master and there are many who will
be disappointed that he will not dis
tribute the mail during the next four
years, but they agree that under the
circumstances his decision to stay
with the bank was a wise one.
The developments this morning,
which had been expected for a day or
two as the movement had gained
some currency, will open up again
the fight for postmaster at Columbia.
Already some half dozen, more Or
less active, and that many receptive
candidates for the place are In the
field. 1t is probable that Congressman
Padgett's mail for the next. month or
so will be largely burdened with en-
dorsements and inquiries about the
local postmastership.
The ocal postoffice IL the sulciest
plum within the gift Of the member
from this district. paying $2,700 per
annum after July /.

SHIP HOGS IN WATER TANKS.

In order to transport hogs safely
through the Nevada desert at this

In the cool of the night the water
is drawn off and the animals fed,
and fresh, cool water is then turned

NOT WISE TO TAKE cALOMEL


 Dodson's Liver Tone is just as sure in results and always safe, pleasant in taste and has no bad after-effects. As a remedy for a torpid liver calomel has more than met it's match in Dodson's Liver Tone. This medicine does not roughly force the liver on to perform it's work. It acts gently but surely.
 Calomel depends for it's power upon exciting the liver to do more work, and often the liver is too weakfto stand such treat ment. and after taking calomel you are Hs a result sometimes worse than before.
 Dodson's Liver Tone cannot cause any of the dangerous effects that often follow the use of calomeL It is entirely vege- table and pleasant to the taste, and is suitable for children and grown people.
 Get a large bottle for fifty cents at M. B. Converse's under the guarantee that if it doesn't t satisfy you that it perfectly takes the place of calomel you will be given your money back with a smile right at the store where you bought Dodson's s medicine.

there are other fits"
 The mountains of Western North Carolina offer every possi- ble inducement to the person who wishes to escape from the heat and enervating climate of other sections. Here the air is cool and invigorating, making old men feel young again. The beautiful scenery inspires one to forget the sordid things of life. and to turn one's attention to poetry. art. sentiment and the Divine. On some lives, a week in the Blue Ridge Mountains would be worth more more than church-going for fifty-two con- secutive Sundays. It is due ourselves and those about us that we keep sweet, but keep ing sweet is a hard proposition in the face of the drudgeries of every day life. The nerves grow tired and the temper grows impatient. Take a day off. a week, a month and spend it near to natures heart, and mark the marvellous effect.
 Yours Sincerely

Asheville, N. C.. July 21, 1914. Editor Argus:
 We were speeding along at a fifty mile per hour clip. The train was No. II on the Ashe- vile division of the Southern railway. Suddenly the brakes were applied and within less than a train length the cars came to a stop. A defective draw head had caused the locomotive to break away, the detachment of the locomotive causing the brakes to act auto- matically upon the car wheels. Such is the safety of modern travel, due to the inventive genious of man. Modern rail-
 way travel is comparatively safe = much safer than auto 
 riding. And with modern equip ment at hand travelling is made so pleasant that it is joy to

s
 Tn the assignment, prepara- tion, recitation and application of the lesson is where the teach CTS and pupils minds meet to the end that the pupil may be benefited. The lesson is the center of activity. All the work of the school is focused here. :. SUGGESTIVE QUESTIONS ON THE
 ASSIGNMENT
 Is my knowledge so fresh and complete that 1 can tell the pupil clearly just what he is to do, or do 1 say take the next lesson" or "the next page?"
 Do l use good judgment in assigning a lesson that can be learned in the allotted time or do I simply guess at it?
 Do I give the preliminary drill required for the pupil to success fully prepare his lesson. or. do l not know that such is necessary? PREPARATION OF THE LESSON
 It is quite as necessary for the teacher to prepare the lesson as it is for the pupil to do so. The teacher prepares it before assignment, the pupil afterward.

THE idea of a city the size of Brinkley being without a day current of electricity and a supply of drinking water for two years, naturally causes a stranger to wonder what the real cause is for such an un- reasonable and unbusiness like administration of public affairs.

MEMPHIS is un ergoi n g another attack by safe robbers. With a Mayor who openly dis regards laws and winks at the open violations of liquors laws as has been the case in Memphis for the past several years. it is no wonder that the crooks infest the city.
