TAX ASSESSOR ADAMS
CELEBRATES 50TH BIRTHDAY

COMFORT, Tenn, Sept IA j. Fl.
Adams, tax assessor of Marion County,
spent a great day at his home at Com
fort last Sunday with many friends
and A. R. Wright. it being the last
Sabbath in his 5Oth year. He is now
teaching school at the Brown school
house near Tracy, one of the best
schools in Marion county, the only
house with the inscription, "School. I"
He came to this county % years ago,
in 1889. He belongs to a lucky num-
Der. He has enjoyed many great
blessings from the people of the coun
ty, for which he is their best friend.
His position on the Dixie Highway
is this. He thinks it best for all par
ties to discontinue the bond trouble
and make friends with one another.
and let the high way come by Tracy
City to Sequ atchie to the Lock and
Dam, and on to Chattanooga. Let the
Federal government connect with US
at the river and come back four miles,

put the highway through, and let the
people of Marion county have little
rest. He says we don't need to be
bothered with these bonds. He wants
the highway to go through the county
the quickest way it can get out, and
be says this will be the best for all
parties concerned. Let them have the
highway and let us have our own
roads. Let this road be road to it.
self. We want peace, he says, in this
county, as we are in as bad a condit.
ion as Mexico. The only thing to do
is to quash the bonds. He knows the |
condition Of the county, and that you
can't do anything without the people. |
He recommends this to the coming
county court, to reconsider and let |
this be the route and take it off the
people, and have peace and satisfac-
tion at home. We can do this and !
have the high way and our roads, too.
Let us have peace and the roads. too,
is his advice.

MosOzine tor Women

Is devoted to the greatest of all Pro-
LESSONS
The Profession of being Woman
that is to say the business of being a
Wife, Home-Maker and Home-Keeper.
Even during her intervals of leisure,
a woman's mind is still on her bust
ness. Nothing could be more welcome
than the publication devoted to that
business. In it she finds numberless
ideas and suggestions, for comfort, for
convenience, for economy, for better
nent, ideas that she can Immediately
put to work under her own roof.
Many Magazines have given some
matters of interest to women but it
remained for TODAY's MAGAZINE to fill
a gap that had never been filled-to
publish a practical but interesting
Fashion, Home and Household Journal
which covers fully and thoroughly all
details, both essential and minor of
woman's biggest interest in life.

Three lonely boys, homesick some
and anxious to see the scenes Of their
entire childhood years, arrived on the
train from Brookings Friday afternoon.
They were Messrs. Edwin Walseth,
Stanley Law and Floyd L%angdon-
three valiant opponents of.Clear Lakes
Il seemed good to see the boys, too.
But we came near asking the boys
once why they were not in the football
game on Saturday-and then it came
to US that they have now really gone
out from our midst-perhaps never
again to be with us permanently. Some
sad thought isn't it? And still how
fortunate these young men and so
many others of Clear Lakes young
life can have the advantages of an ad
vanced education preparatory for
places which the old home town can
not furnish except in small degree.
And then we feel so sure that these
boys and girls who are attending in
stitutions of learning abroad will bring
honor and praise upon their home city
by their department and attainments
in letters. The Advocate is happy to
believe that Clear Lake is n Of the
cleanest cities, morally, in the north
west and we hope this fact may be re.
fected by all our people as they may
s~ojourn n other places; and especially
are we solicitous for the correct habits
and general demeanor of the students
we send forth.-Clear Lake Advocate.
