SCHOOL CONTRACT
LARGEST OF YEAR
Large Architectural Job is
Awarded to Pierson & Son
by School Commissioners.

The largest architectural contract
awarded this year was made this
week by the Board of School Com
missioners when Pierson & Son were
commissioned to draw plans and pre-
pare specifications for an enlarged
high school to cost in the neighbor-
competition among the architects,
and it is declared that the successful
| firm received the commission largely
from the fact that it submitted pre-
| limfnary plans for making the pres
ent building and addition one struc-
ture, instead of having the addition
connected by hall or archway. The
other architects worked on the plan
of placing the addition and having it
connected by Railways.

bids on the remodeling of H. We

THE SPIRIT OF CHRISTMAS

Spirit of Christmas? Yes, there
is. The day, the season, by long
custom both Christian and Pagan,
we come around this season to
have what is best described as the
Spirit of Christmas. It's enthus-
iasm is one of youth, yet age
never quite loses it's glow. While
this spirit of Christmas is univer-
sal, it is not national institution
1t is individual. For, if national,
today civilization would not blush
with shame at drenching conti-
nent with blood. This spirit of
Christmas is an attitude of our
better selves. 1t exists around the
campfres of Europe but not in
royal courts. It exists around the
meagre board of the peasant, but
not at the tables of council
Christmas is not yet the thought
of nations. Sad as is the thought
let not this false Interpretation OF
civilization dim our hopes or dull
our activities toward making ma
tional policies follow the better
and saner minds of the people
By projecting all that is best with.
in us, into our national life, will
we the nearer approach the Ideal
Christmas and Peace are Ideals
and dreams, say the Materialists
But so long as the memory of 6
certain man born at Bethlehem
nineteen centuries ago, is follow
ed, there will be dreams and striv
ings for peace, and a spirit o.
Christmas. With bit of sadness
for those within the sounds O.
slaughter, we even yet cling tt
our Dream and wish you all

SOY sEANs-PLANTINa THEM.

(By ]. C. McAmis, Division Of Exten
sion. University of Tennessee.)
1t takes a better farmer to make q
success of soy beans than cow peas
1t requires more intensive preparation
of the seed bed in order to destroy
weeds and to secure uniform stand
of beans. That greater care must be
taken to secure a stand is shown by
the greater frequency of failure with
beans than peas.
That farmer who plants soy beans
more than one-half inch deep is court
ing partial or total failure. Suppose
1t rains Immediately afterwards, a
crust forms, the beans terminate and
are unable to push through, they
break their necks."
Planting must be shallow so that
even II It rains Immediately afterward
the plants will get through efore the
crust gets too hard. Shallow planting
can only be accomplished on a level
firm seed bed, otherwise some will be
deep and some shallow.
Another point Of scarcely less i'm
portance. Is that they be planted In
rows and cultivated. The soy bean Ia
erect in habit and does not form the
shade which enables II to compete
with weeds as does the COW pea,
Therefore, cultivation is important.
n you are good farmer, grow soy
beans. The more the better. IL you
are a poor farmer and know little OF
intensive tillage. cultivation. and seed
ing, grow peas. You will make a bet.
ter success.
