Additional news of the storm Of

night and a lot of hay and feed stored
in the building was damaged. Mr..
Fly had no tornado insurance.
The home of w. w. Harper in Riv-

the deluge that was pouring down.
Mr.. Harper's damage was consider
able, but was fully covered by insur.
ance.
The clothing store OF Sam Wolf ON

when the trap door through the roof

heavy downpour to food the building.
The shoe stock was badly damaged

FIFTY REGISTERED
SHORTHORN CATTLE
WILL Be SOLD HERE
AUCTION UNDER THE AUSPICES
OF THE LOCAL STOCK
ASSOCIATION.
ON v DNEsDAI, JUNE 2lST
Secretary Harding OF The American
Shorthorn Cattle Association, viii
Likely Archaeological Rates on the
Railroads.

The Nashville, Chattanooga and st
Louis Railway has arranged for thu
American Shorthorn Breeders Associa
ton to conduct public sale of fifty
head of registered Shorthorn cattle al
Columbia, June 21st, cooperating with
the Maury County Live Stock Associa
ton. The American Shorthorn Breed
ers' Association will select and furnish
the offering from the most reliable
Shorthorn breeders in the United
States and will further cooperate by
sending a representative, probably F.
w. Harding, its secretary, to attend
the sale and to support every state,
ment made during the sale concerning
the cattle to be offered.
Although the N, C. & st. L. RN has
promoted large number of sales Of
registered live stock in its territory, 1t
is stated that the consignment Of
Shornhorn cattle to the Columbia sale
will constitute the most representative
lot Of registered breeding animals ever
consigned to Southern sale. The
Nashville, Chattanooga & st. Louis
railway will accord reduced passen.
ger fares to Columbia from the coun.
ties Of Rutherford, Bedford, Coffee,
Franklin, Lincoln and Marshall, in
Tennessee, and Madison, in Alabama,
and will transport cattle sold at the
sale and destined to points on that
road in Tennessee at greatly reduced
rate. The breeders residing along the
Nashville, Chattanooga & st. Lotus
railway are greatly benefited by the
character Of improved agriculture and
live stock resulting from this work
of the company, and it is safe con-
clusion that the sale Of Shorthorns at |
Columbia on the 21st, will be warmly |
by its friends. Our read. |
ers are requested to note the adver-
tisement Of sale appearing in this is-
sue of The Columbia Herald.
Allan Harlan, president of the
Maury County Live Stock Association,
has called meeting of all interested
farmers and stock men of the county L
1t the Court House in Columbia, Satur-
lay, of this week, the 18th, at 2 p. m.
All are cordially invited and urged to

American Shorthorn Breeders Asso-
iation.

pALF BOY GRADUATES
COUNTY HIGH SCHOOL
HAVE GOOD POSITION
Six OF THE CLASS OF 1916 ARE
EMPLOYED BY CUMBERLAND
TELEPHONE co.
WILL Be TR lined IN BUSINESS
Manager Hume Declares That He Has
Found no High School Graduates
With Whom he Has Been Better
Pleased Than Columbians.

Six of the twelve boys who gradual
ed from the County and City Higl
school last month have already beer
offered and accepted good positions
with the Cumberland Telephone and
Telegraph company. They are Ray
mOnd Moore and Claude Holt, OF Cul
leoka: Edwin Harris, Of Glendale;
James Cecil, William Estes and Cecil
Scott, of Columbia. They will leave
Maury county on Thursday for Nash
vile and will at once begin their Ia
bors.
The offering of positions to these
boys by the telephone company is a
distinct compliment to the Columbia
High school and to the class of boys
who graduated there. General Mana
ger Leland Hume came down to CO.
1umbia, looked over the boys who grad
suated, found out those who had no
intention of taking college education
and offered eight of the dozen gradu-
stes position. Six of them accepted.
The young men from here will begin
on outdoor work and will take thor
4ongh course in practical telephone
work. They will be educated in every
feature Of the business This is In
line with the new policy Of the COM
pany to get higher class of en-
plOyes and to train them from the
humblest to the very highest positions
10 that they can fill any with credit to
themselves and to the company. While
they are learning the telephone bust
ness from beginning to end they will
also take a literary course in the
school established by the company for
that purpose.
In a letter to Superintendent Har-
ris, Mr.. Hume stated that he had not |
visited any school where he had seen
q class of graduates with whom he was
