The two store houses on West Sew

according to reports, has been leas-
ed by a North Carolina syndicate op-
Grating a chain of FIVE and ten cent
stores, and will undergo some very
decided Improvements. The stores
are the one now occupied by the Kne-

house adjoining, formerly occupied by
Joe Ritt. The new concern will con-

dakiH Anncut to secure the exact
name of the parties who have leased
the building, but it is generally un-
derstood and believed that the North
Carolina concern has the call.
Carpenters are now making plans
and specifications for the improve
ments and work will, it is understood,
commence on the vacant building at
once and upon the other building as
soon as 1t is vacated.

Every automobile owner in Maury
county must buy new certificate and
get a new number for his car or cars
before the first day of January Ev-
cry automobile license in the state
will expire on Dec. 81, one week from
next Friday. Hereafter the license
will be renewed annually, instead of
one license for the life of a car as has
been the rule in the past. The plates
will be changed that is different

used
Application must be made to the
secretary of state for the license and

the name of the car, the seating ca
pacity and horse power and the num-
Der of the last registration must also
be given in the application. With
should be sent the check for the nee
essary sum. All cars having seat
ing capacity of FIVE passengers or

delivers them to the owner upon the
payment of a registration Tee Of 81.
1t is estimated that THERE are 250
cars in this county which will have
to pay the tax for next yea1 Incl.
dentally this will be not to be de-
spised addition to the emoluments OF
the county court clerks office. The
revenues, all of which accrue to the
state good roads fund, will approx
mate $500 or more in Maury county
during the coming year.
Already applications are beginning
to be made by auto owners of this
county for license.

Examinations of teachers under the
uniform teachers examination law
held during the past two days at the
high school building have been COM
pleted and the necessary papers mail
ed to the state department to be
graded by County Superintendent
Graham. The latter was assisted in
the examinations by R. N. Moore,
chairman of the county board of edu-
cation. For the primary work exam
nations were taken by total of six
ty-one teachers, of whom twenty-nine
were white and thirty-two were ne
groes. Only one took the examina.
tion for the high school course.
The teachers who were examined
gave the closest attention to the work
and showed an earnestness and an
application that it is believed will
bring them success. The large ma

county successfully passed the exam.

MAKE DETERMINED
FIGHT TO SECURE
FARM AGENT HERE
THE COUNTY COURT TO BE ASK.
ED TO MAKE AN AP-
PROPRIATloN.
BY ASSOCIATIONS OF FAUMlRS
Nearly Two-Thirds of the Counties of
the State Are Already in Line and
All Progressive States Have the
Local Demonstrators.

An effort will be made at the Jan
uary term of the county court to Sc
cure an appropriation for employing
a demonstration farm agent for Mau-
ry county. An appropriation of about
$500 will be asked by the Maury
County Farmers Association for this
purpose. This sum added to what is
allowed by the government of the
United States for farm demonstration
work will be sufficient to pay an ex-
perienced and capable demonstration
agent a salary of $1,000 per annum
The local association of farmers
are very much in earnest in this mat.
ter and will have strong delegation
to go before the court and urge that
the appropriation be made. Formal
request for the appropriation has al
ready been filed with the court.
Members of the association point
out that there are some sixty coun-
ties in Tennessee which are already
employing these demonstration
agents and that wherever a county has
once established the system the farm
ers have been so wen pleased that 1t
has been continued. These agents
are experts in farming and live stock
raising and they go about over the
county every day of the year coun-
selling and advising with the farm
ers, helping them to solve their prob
lens. The county agent is fixed
policy in almost all of the progressive
counties of the West and Middle West
and the fact that large appropria-
tions are made annually for this work
by the Federal government shows the
esteem in which the agents are held.

DRIVERS ARE WARNED
ABOUT SPEEDING ON
THE COUNTY BRIDGES
FAST DRIVING INJURIES FLOOR
ING AND WEAKENs STRUc.
TURE.
MANY COMPLAINTS AXE MADE
Offenders Will Be Fined From Five
to Fifty Do'Iars-Warnines Are
Posted at Entrances But Are lg-
nored-officers Will Watch Closely.

A number of complaints have been
made to the county officials in regard
to the vehicles and automobiles be-
ing driven rapidly on the bridge over
Duck river on the Nashville pike.
The penalty for driving over the
bridge at a speed faster than walk
is a fine ranging from IS to $50 for
each offense.
The Nashville Bridge Company,
who has just completed repairing the
bridge, states that fast driving not
only Injuries the flooring but also
weakens the entire structure and in
time makes the bridge dangerous to
use. Signs warning drivers have
been posted at each entrance to the
bridge but it appears that the warn
ings are ignored or are passed un-
seen by the drivers.
Speeding on the bridges makes
strong bridge weak and in the course
of time the supports are loosened and
fatalities may result, The county
makes every effort to enforce the law
prohibiting driving on the bridges
faster than a walk but it is impossi-
BILE for an officer to be stationed at
the bridge all the time. Everyone
who is arrested for driving swiftly
on the bridge will be considered
guilty of misdemeanor.
The bridge will be watched more
closely now and all offenders will be
arrested and duly tried. The Nash
vile bridge is in good repairs now,
new steel joinsts have just recently
been substituted for the wooden ones
which have been in use for several
years. If tn public obeys the law and
drives slowly on the bridge no repairs
will have to be made for a long time.

1H|RIy-OAE HUNDRED
DOLLARS RECEIVED
FROM ROAD TAX
MORE THAN A THOUSAND HAVE
PAID INSTEAD OF WORKING
ON HIGHWAY.
TO MAKE The ANNUAL VISITS
Trustee Adkisson Will Go to Principal
Places in County With the Tax
Books to Give People Opportunity
to Pay at Home.

One thousand and twenty-five citi.
zens of Maury county have paid their
road communication taxes for the pres.
ent year the receipts for the road
fund on this account are approximate
ly $3;10O, the tax being three dollars
for the citizen liable for road duty.
There will probably be few more
collections during the year. The total
is slightly in excess of that Of last
year, and it is believed that the
amount collected from this source
will continue to grow as the road
workers find it cheaper to pay the
tax than to put in five days at work
on the roads.
Collections in the trustees office
from general taxes have received a
slight impetus since the first OF the
month, but no very large sums will
be collected until after Christmas.
Although the taxes have been due
since Oct. l, very little is paid until
after the first of the year.
Trustee Adkisson will soon begin
his round of tax collections going to
all of the principal places Of the coun-
ty where he can meet the taxpayers
and give them an opportunity to set
tie without the necessity of going to
the court house. While this is a great
accommodation to the people there
are comparatively few who take ad-
vantage of the chance and the major
portion of the taxes of the county are
collected at the trustees Office.

About Dozen Are Giving Attention
to the Job and a Spirited Contest
Is Generally Anticipated-What
Will cowley Do?

Formally opening the campaign for
county offices for next year, Walter
McCandless, of this district, today an
nouncel his candidacy for tax assess
or. Mr.. McCandless has been conteml
plating the race for some time and
stated today that he had determined
to yield to the pressure of friends
and get into the contest. He says
that he received many assurances of
support and expects to be a winner.
He is farmer and has many friends
in all parts of the county who will
no doubt rally many to his standard.
He will make a vigorous campaign
and expects to see all the voters in
person.
There are a number of others who,
it is expected, will likewise shy their
castors into the assessors ring. Half
of the districts of the county have
candidates in the process of incuba-
ton and the prediction is generally
made that the largest field ever
known will aspire to the task of as
sessing the taxes of Maury county.
The term of the Office is for four
years from Jan. l, 1917.
While it had been generally believ-
ed that Assessor Ben Cowley would
not again be a candidate, there is a
possibility that he may disappoint
this dope and try for third term.
Mr.. Cowley was first elected in 1908
in a rather spectacular finish and
four years later was reelected with
out any contest He is popular in the
county and would doubtless make an.
other interesting race if he does enter
the lists.

SITUATION.
SENTIMENT IS VERY STRONG
With All Candidates and Al Parties
Committed to the Cause Conditions
Could Not Be Very Well improved
Upon, He Says.

]. D. McAlister, superintendent OF
the Tennessee Anti-Saloon League for
the past year, was visitor to Co
lumbia this morning. Mr.. McAlister
succeeded w. r. Hamilton as the
head of the great anti-loquor organi-
cation in Tennessee and has made a
splendid record for achievements for
the cause of prohibition. Under his
direction the league was a potent fac
tor in the enactment of the anti-liquor
laws by the last legislature.
Mr.. McAlister naturally expressed
himself as being much gratified at
the status of the porhibition question
in Tennessee at this time. The fact
that all parties and all candidates are
committed to the program advocated
by the league insures the triumph of
the cause. However, the superin-
tendent never fails to suggest to his
friends the Importance of being on
the alert when it comes to the elec-
ton of Legislature next year. He
urges that none but the true friends
of the cause be elected.

Many improvements, including q

within the next month. The members
of the congregation have already de-
cided upon a complete and up-to-dats

be let at an early date. A good deal
of excavating will have to be done be-
fore the plant can be installed and
it will be some time before 1t can be
completed
The individual communion service
which will doubtless be determined
upon, is coming into use in all of the
