JACK FROST DID
NOT ARRIVE HERE
GENERAL REJOICING OVER THE
FAILURE OF WINTER TO
COME.

]. Frost failed to arrive Wednesday
night, as forecasted. At least If he
did arrive he did not make any i'm
preston whatever. He failed to leave
his footprints. Vegetation had it's
head as high in the air this morning
as it ever had; 1t was not wilted a
wee bit even. The temperature was
low, fires we're comfortable, but no
records for this season were broken.
In fact the mercury did not go as low
and there was not as much evidence
of frost as there was one night in
September.
If the frost, that is the kind of the
killing sort, will remain away for the
next two weeks the farmers of this
county will be most grateful. There
is still much to be done in the fields
before the farmers are ready for gen.
uine winter. The danger is over for
a time at least and every one will
breathe easier. 1t will be fair and
warmer tomorrow.

FOR GOOD PRICES
FOR YOUNG MULES
RISING COTTON MARKET WILL
BE VERY HELPFUL TO
FARMERS HERE.
SPLENDID TIMES ARE AHEAD
In Judgment Of Well Informed Deal
ers the Upward Tendency in the
Mule Market viii Continue for
Some Time.

Not in two years has the outlook
for mules and mule colts been as
good as it is now, in the opinion of
dealers who are familiar with mar
ket conditions. Comparatively few
mules changed hands here Monday
but those that were sold brought
good prices and owners are generally
asking an advance over what they
have been selling at
The high price of cotton, its con-
stant tendency upward, as was evi-
denced again on Monday by an ad.
vance of over a dollar a bale, follow
ing the publication of the govern.
ment's estimate, has already had its
effect on mules. A farmer who Is
also in close touch with the mule mar
ket, sums the situation up after this
manner:
"The high price OF cotton, over
twelve cents pound for the farm
ers, is bound to make a big demand
in the South for our mules. It has
never failed to have this effect, This
price, had there been no war in Eu-
rope would have made mules good
here. But coupled with the fact that
last winter and spring the South sold
thousands and thousands of its best
mules to the buyers for the English
army, means that there are fewer
mules in the cotton country now than
there have been in many years These
mules must be replaced from just the
same source from which they have
been supplied in the past.
Il believe that investments in
young mules and colts is going to be
a very profitable one. Colts are now
and have been selling low; the farm
er who fails to buy at prevailing
prices is going to stand in his own
light They will grow him money.
BY January, it is my judgment that
mules ready for the cotton country
are going to sell in Columbia at very
remunerative prices"

COMMITTEE MAKES
APPEAL FOR HOMES
FOR FOX HUNTERS
ALL WHO HAVE ROOMS TO LET
WILL PLEASE MAKE FACT
KNOWN.
ENORMOUS CROWD is COMING
No Doubt About the People Being
Here From All Sections OF the
Country and They Must Have Ac-
commodations.

An appeal was made today to the
housekeepers of Columbia for rooms
for the visitors at the big annual fox
hunters meeting here during Thanks
giving week. 1t is becoming appar-
ent that the city will be literally
flooded with visitors from far and
wide during the week of the associa-
ton meeting here. The hotel accom-
modations, it is apparent, will not be
anything like adequate for the ac-
commodation of the hundreds who
will come to Columbia.
This situation was recognized at
the meeting here on Monday when
plans were made for the big meet by
the appointment of committee to
get list of homes and rooms that
will be available for the visitors. 1t
should be understood that those who
are coming to the fox hunters meet.
ing expect to pay their way. No one
will have to be entertained without
charge. However, all who will have
rooms for rent or board to let, are
asked to make the prices reasonable
so that Columbias reputation for hos
pitality will not be in any way impair
ed.
The COMMITTEES in charge will make
list of the rooms, whether with or
without board, and be prepared, when
the guests commence to arrive to
give them information as to their
abiding place.
The following is the appeal issued
by the committee:
AT the meeting held Monday by
the citizens interested in looking
after visitors during the National Fox
Hunters meet, the following were ap.
pointed to take the names of those
who had rooms to rent during Thanks
giving week, either with or without
board, so that a list could be made
and upon arrival each visitor will be
assigned his abiding place.

MATTER Of LARGER
SCHOOL INSURANCE
BOARD OF EDUCATION FAILS TO
AGREE WITH AGENTS AS TO
RATES.
SPLENDID OPENING new Term
Superintendent Harris Reports That
There Are 300 Pupils Now Enrolled
In the County High schooI-AlI Is
Running Smoothly.

The city board of education met on
Tuesday afternoon at o'clock. The
minutes of the last meeting were
read by the secretary, after which
followed the report of the different
committees. One of the most impor-
tant discussions of the melting was in
regard to additional insurance of the
new High School building. The build
ing is already insured for $4,000 and
the board wishes to obtain 11,100 ad-
ditional making the total $4,000. The
committee appointed for this purpose
failed to agree on the rates of the dir
ferent insurance companies and the
matter was deferred until the next
meeting.
Supt Harris made a few remarks
in regard to the school work that is
being carried on. He stated that 400
pupils were enrolled at the new build
ing, 800 of the number being High
School pupils. All of the machinel4
and equipment for the manual art
room and the chemical laboratory has
not arrived yet and the work in those
departments will be delayed to some
extent, but the remainder of the
school work is in full sway and every
thing is moving along nicely. The
pupils and teachers along with the
board are delighted with the new
building with all of its modern and
up~to date equipment and all predict
successful school year. The ques-
tion of erecting fire escape for the
building was mentioned, but the
school being two story building,
with several escapes already, it was
decided not needed

Also One Of Speakers.

COumbia's Woman's Christian
temperance Union was on the roll of
honor at the recent state convention
Of the union held at Martin. Mrs.
Lemuel P, Padgett, the representa-
tive from the Columbia Union, return
ed this morning from the convention
full of enthusiasm over the great
meeting that the order had in the me-
uopolis of Weakley. By reason of the
fact that the local union attained the
coveted distinction of place on the
roll Of honor Mrs. Padgett occupied
seat on the platform with a banner
indicating the achievement here.
In order to attain a place on the
roll of honor the union must either
double its membership during the
year or have a net gain in member

is one of real honor and is much GOV.
eted and Mrs. Padgett was showered
with congratulations over the achieve
ment for Columbia.
Mrs, Padgett stated that the ses.

For the fourth month in succession
this year d. Cupid, the little God of
Love, supposed to be the most admir-.
ed and best beloved of all the Gods of
the ancients, has failed to see his du-

riages were not as popular by one
quarter during the month that Just
closed yesterday as they were in the
same month of 1914. They fell down
thirteen in August, were off the re-
cord in July and the leafy month of
June was not one whit better. In
fact the year is going to give Mr. Gu
pid a mighty black eye in all this
country and he will never again be as
popular as he has been.
Just why he should have ceased
his labors, or his darts failed to hit
the mark, cannot be explained. At
least Clerk Arch Lipscomb, when ask.

for the partial dissolution of friendly
and intimate relations heretofore ex-

on at the meeting of the board of ed

The members of the county board will
make the rounds at once with the at
tendance officers and wherever a
child is found subject to the compul-
sorry law who is not in school and no
legal excuse can be given therefor,
the parent will be notified that un-
| less the child is placed in school
legal proceedings will be invoked.
Two years ago, when the compul-
sorry school law went into effect the
board employed an attendance Off
Ger with splendid results. But ow-
ing to scarcity of funds and hoping
that the people would voluntarily
yield to the mandates of the law, the
services of the officer was dispensed
with last year. However, there was
a falling of in the attendance as the
result and at the Monday meeting
the matter was pfaeed squareiy be-
fore the board by Superintendent
Graham who urged that some action
be taken which would make certain
the attendance of al the children
subject to the law. The members of
the board readily agreed and to show
their interest and good faith in the
matter agreed to accompany the at
