CRUSADE AGAINST
TRAIN HOPPING. "
n, C. & St. |. Appeals to
Parents to See That Child
rem Stop Dangerous
Practice.

The Nashville, Chattanooga
& St. Louis Railway, thru its
safety department, has inaugur-
ated campaign against train
hopping" and in seeking to have
this dangerous practice stopped,
will take the matter up with the
parents of children along its
lines.
Within the past two weeks, two
boys been crippled while hopping
freight trains. This practice is
usually INDUCED in by the young
sters of the smaller communities,
and they go among their play
mates and boast that they can't
run 'em too fast for me-" The
BOYS seldom realize the danger
until they are maimed-and this
is usually followed by a lawsuit.
Arrests usually stop the practice
for short time, but the boys are
soon back at the same old tricks.
Superintendent c. M. Ander-
son of the safety work has con-
ceived the idea that direct ap-
peal to the parents or guardians
of such offenders will bring re-
suits and believes that by citing
specific cases, such as the two
accidents above referred to, that
he will get results.
Train hopping" is dangerous
to grown-ups; in fact, nobody ex'
cept the train crews has any
business on a freight train, anc
the N, C. & st. L. Railway /:
endeavoring to secure the CO
operation of the public in it,
efforts to reduce the number o.
avoidable accidents.
See that your boy does not en-
gage in the dangerous practice

TWOINJURED IN AUTO
ACCIDENT NEAR JASPER

Clay Dunwoody, arm broken,
and DR.. J. A. Price, badly
bruised, is the record in an auto
mobile accident at Jasper Thurs
day. sDr. Price was returning
from South Pittsburg in his ma
chine and permitted Dunwoody
to drive it. At the embankment
near the Town Creek, the ma
chine skided slightly and the
roadway being very narrow it
plunged over the edge, turning
bottom up and pinioning the oc-
cupants beneath it. Neither of
the parties were able to release
themselves, and had it not been
that some parties nearby witness
ed the accident, they would have
remained in their predicament.
DR.. Price was unable to leave
his house Friday on account of
his injuries. This is the second
accident that has happened there
since the road was graded for the
Dixie Highway, Mrs. W. C.
Robertson nearly going over in a
car she was driving. 1t is be-
Ilieved that the road has too high
a crown for it's width.

Miss Ann Martin OF Reno, as chairman OF the
newly formed Woman's party, has been IN attendance
at St. Louis in an effort to whip the Democratic party
into line in regard to the passage OF the Anthony
amendment to the constitution OF the United States.
The Woman's party has issued the ultimatum to
the party in power that congress must pass the An
thony amendment before it adJourns or all Democrats
will have the Womans party opposing them at the
coming election. The Womans party claims to be
able to deliver the votes OF the 100000 women in the
twelve suffrage states.
But can they deliver this vote? Well, hardly! II
Nevada is any criterion to go by they can deliver a
very small part OF the 100000. When the represent
tatives Of the Congressional Union the militant par
ent OF the more militant Woman's party toured the
west they were courteously received in Nevada, but
their methods were not liked and they did not receive
the endorsement OF the great majority OF Nevada
women who have been active workers for the cause
OF woman's suffrage.
The women OF the west will not subordinate all
else to obtain this particular amendment, and they
have the backing OF the National American Woman ;
Suffrage association. The latter is contending only for
an endorsement Of suffrage in the platform ana APP
proves Of the plank drafted by Secretary Daniels and
other leading Democrats:
The constitution provides that when any con-
fcrred to the people congress may submt the constl-
tutional amendment to the legislatures OF the separate
stats for ratification. ~.
Nov that there are more than 100000 women
voters in the country and the issue has been ratified

How to Hem Tablecloths and Napkins

Every woman who has attempted to Law i9ems on
napkins or tablerloths, or to hem them after they are
laid, knows the impossibility OF doing them quickly or
we'll if the stitfening is not iirst removed. One way 70
get them in proper condition is to rub the linen be-
tween the fingers and thumbs along the entire length
OF the hem. Another and better method is before the
linen, napkins particularly, is cut apart. wet it along
the hne OF division and for about an inch on each side
with a small toothbrush dipped in soapsuds. Not only
will the thread draw with few. if any breaks, but the
hem can be laid with greater ease.

NEIGHBORHOOD IMPROVEMENT WORK

NeigEborhood Improvement is home Improvement
multiplied. 1t is the sum Of all the efforts mace to
make houses look attractive and beautiful.
Neigfborhood improvement illustrates the mfu-
ence of a good deed well done. On a dingv street one
householder starts to- improve the appearance of hrs or
her home. The yard and house is kept spick and SPAN:
the house, fences and outbuildings are painted and grass,
flowers and s%hrubbery are planted. Soon the neigh
bors notice the Improvement. They begin to clean I'D,
paint up and green up. Within a few months the Street
is Transformed.
1t not only looks better, but it is better. PeoD1e
are happier. Property values are increased. Neighbor-
hood Improvement has worked a 'beiore and after"
change that is really wonderful. In the words of a
modern poet:
Little beds Of flowers.
Little cans of paint,
Make attractive neiehborhoods
Out of those that ain't."

To Relieve Fatigue

When a woman is very tired she will find one of
the best processes OF refreshing herself it to wiring out
hot cloths and lay them over her eyes and forehead.
A hot water bag does not act as a substitute for this,
and the treatment is little trouble. The simplest way is
to have two cloths and a basin of hot water ready to
wiring out, replacing the one on the head as soon as it
becomes cool.

HIGH COST OF PARADING

The high cost OF parading caused the members OF
the parade committee Of the Illinois Equal Suffrage
association to open their eyes. They held a "checklng
up meeting and found that approximately $oO,59O had

planks in the Republican and Progressive platforms.

$4,000.
An equal number of ruined white waists at 81
each. $4,000.
Rubbers for out-of-town contingent. S1,uu
$3.50.
Railroad fare for Out-of-town contingent $4,000.
Hotels and lodgings for 1000 out-of-town parad-
ers at s. a day for two days. 5000.
Bands. slogans and overhead expense. $1,000
One thousand umbrellas at 81 apiece. $l.OOL
In addition. sufragists figure that $40 was spent
in carfare to the points where the Daraders modified.
