Jim stood watching the light in the
window on the ground floor, and won
dering when the old man would go to
bed.
He always pulled off coup single
handed. To that, in his opinion, he
owed his immunity from arrest. Jim

Jim knew that the old man in the
big house at the end of the street had
plenty of silver, and money, too, in the
big safe. There ought to be a couple
of thousand dollars. Jim had the

waiting for the old man to go to bed.
He felt a little bitter as he stood
waiting there in the chill of Novem-
Der evening. But for Tom he might
have been earning decent living.
Tom had been his brother. They had
been fellow clerks in the bank, and
Tom had stolen money. He was en-
gagged to be married; Jim had shout

doubtless living somewhere in luxuri-

RELATIONS OF GOD AND MAN
Gradual Readjustment Means Cen.
tinual Advance Toward the
Higher Life.

In studying the Bible it becomes In
creasingly apparent that the relations
between God and man are not con
slant or fixed, but are subject TO a
gradual readjustment. In the earlier
chapters the ideal held out is for man
to fear" God. Later he learns to
trust, to a limited extent, this higher
life. Eventually this grudging faith
is turned to love, which recognizes GOO
as the father, constantly giving him
self, as life and wisdom, to his chill
dren. And beyond this comes that
fruition of growth which constitutes
real unity; man is merged with Co.,
and comes to realize that Il and the
Father are one"
God never changes, but our under
standing of him does change. And
it is the evolution of this ideal which
we have of the great sea of life in
which we live, and which lives In
and through us, which constitutes real
growth and advancement. Life is fol-
that; the everyday tasks tend toward
the bringing forth of self-conscious'
less, which is always a fuller conscl

Same Thlna.

Hearing noise at the kitchen en-
trance, the man of the house slipped
quietly to- the rear door and suddenly
opened it. The grocer's delivery boy
was there with a basket containing q
dozen eggs. a pound Of butter and
some Roquefart cheese.
ooh, it's you, is It, Billy?" said the
man. "My wife is always afraid when
she hears a noise here, especially at
ter it begins to grow dark. She thinks
it's robber."
"Well, she needn't change her mind
on my account" gloomily responded
the grocer's boy, handing over the
goods and presenting the bill. which

That was eleven months before, and
he had tried hard-desperately hard
to live decently. He had succeeded
until he dropped off the train here,

He had been ON his way back to
Ada with ten dollars in his pocket.
Just one more coup, and he could go
to her with money enough to start
their married life, and lie on his
lips. Why not? She had sent him
into the world to make a man of him

Town to Have Mail.
Delivery In July
Asserts Austin
Congressman Visits Friends
in Maryville.'

City mail delivery will be es-
tablished in Maryville July l,
this year, according to informa-
happenings of the county by
R. w. Austin, who was in Mary
vile last Friday. Congressman
Austin spent the day visiting
friends, and looking over the site
on which the new federal build
ing is to be erected. He said that
upon his return from the Orient
in August he expects to spend a
few days in Maryville and Blount
county, and is of the opinion that
work on the federal building will
be begun about that time.
Congressman Austin left Tues
day for Washington where he
goes to prepare for his departure
for the Orient as a member of a
congressional committee to study
industrial and sociological condi-
tions. He expects to write several
articles of his findings on this
trip, and these will be included in
the congressional records.
Congressman Austin has about

recovered from his recent serious
illness and does not appear to
have been a sufferer for months.
He believes that the sea voyage
will completely restore him to his
usual health, and he will return
to America to resume his activi-
ties in the interest of the second
congressional district, which he
has served so faithfully.
While visiting at The Times
office, Congressman Austin re-
marked upon the splendid
growth of Maryville and Blount
county, since his last visit here.
He spoke in optimistic terms of
the future of the town and coun-
ty, and is especially proud that
so much pike work is to be done
here this summer. He said he
kept himself informed as to the
happenings of. the county by
The Maryville Times

Upon his return from the ORR
ent, Congressman and Mrs. Aus

TWENTY. SEVEN SENIORS
AT MARYVILLE COLLEGE
Degrees Will Be Conferred on
Thursday, June 8.

] Serosa Melich and Samuel Powell
The past week has been crowd.
ed with entertainments. Doubt,
less April will have an unusually
large number of evening attrac.
tions, because there are to be
none during May. The reason as
signed is that the college does
not wish to offer any counter at
fractions while the union meet
ings are in progress.
The local Peace oratorical con-
test took place Monday night.
The contestants were j. E. En-
sign, H. S. Balch and Pat Quinn.
Mr.. Quinn won. He will be Mary
ville's representative in the state
contest at Nashville. If he is sue
cessful there he will participate
in the group-of-states contest,
and if he is successful there he
will go to Lake Mohawk to the
national contest.
The choir gave Calvary" by
Vessel, last Tuesday evening.
The cantata was based on the
seven last words which Christ
spoke while on the cross. This
was rare musical treat, and
was indeed a triumph of the mu-
sical department. The soloists
were Misses Marie Baker, Flo
ence Steelman and Aletha May.
Messrs. Rolfe Rankin, Roy An
derson and Harold Huddleston.
Miss Hale was accompanist and
Miss Staater director.
The college had a rare privil-
ege on Wednesday evening in the
address of Capt. r. P. Hobson.
His theme was America in the
Twentieth Century" He showed
that America is destined to be
he leader of the world IN all pro-
gress. Liquor, he declared, is the
greatest enemy Of the nation. He
iaid that while he regrets Amer
ca is so defenseless for war, he
would rather all Europe would
leclare war on us than to know
hat the liquor business should |
continue unchecked.

animals.
Just as soon as a cross is made
not only is the blood mixed but
the result of generations OF
breeding, feeding and selection
are mixed and the definiteness OF
inheritance is sacrificed for q
game of chance.
Even in the best strains OF
blooded animals there is a ten
dency to bark back to remote an
cestors. The Duroc will produce
a black spot on an occasional pig
and the Poland China is not yet
free from a tendency to show red
in places. The old blood will come
out at times, even after culling
and sitting the forty genera
tions.
Form, like color, will frequent
ly tell on the progeny of prepo-
tent animal, many generations
after he has found rest in the
pork barrel. 1t is important, then,
that the desirable form, habits
and tendencies of growth should
be inherited from the entire line
of ancestry.
Blooded animals feed out to a
more economic advantage, giving
a larger net profit per pound and
they feed out with more unifor-
nifty and with fewer runts. Til
feeding question is less of a prob |
lem as there is not so great vari-
ETY. for the feeder to plan for, in
order that the less thrifty may
nave a chance to make the need
ed gains. There is less waste in
feeding.
The full blood has the advant-
age over the grade in being

itters, development, size and
quality, and have the advantage

COUNTY COURT HONORS
MEMORY OF A. nj. RULE

In the assembling of the coun-
ty court in quarterly session
today, Monday, April 5, there is
a vacant seat. A form which has
been familiar in the court room
and official circles for many
years is not here.
I On Friday morning, March 26,
1915, Andrew M. Rule, one Of the

stable, then was appointed depu-
ty sheriff, and afterwards elect
ed sheriff, which office he filled
two or three terms. He was then
elected trustee, holding that of
fee a number of terms. He rep
resented the county in the lower
house of the legislature two ses-
sions-1909 and 1911-and had
been a justice of the peace a
number of years, which office he
held at the time of his death.
AS soldier and in the various
civil positions held by him, he
was faithful and socially always
bright and cheerful, having the
faculty of imparting happiness
and good cheer to those with
whom he came in contact. He
was attentive to business, honor
able in dealings and wise in coun-
sells.
His wife preceded him to the
