Will the children of today be the
promulgators of the world peace Of
tomorrow
This is The hope Of the originators Of
& childrcn's movement which was
started at the San Diego exposition
md which is expected 10 spread
throughout the country.
The idea was first conceived by
Miss Mabel Normand. Exposition Of
sicials, hearing cf the idea, planned
The first ceremony, naming the occa-
sion Peace Day. Thousands Of chill
dren from all portions Of Southern
California paraded the beautiful eX~
position grounds.
Led by Miss Normand, they dug a
grave" in which we're buried sword,
a gun and a pistol, the omb!oms Of
War, and planted en- it an olive tree,
hl emblem Of peace.
George Wharton James, the famous
author and lecturer; Secretary Pen
ford Of the exposition, and heads OF
Coast educational societies made sim
pie talks to the youthful participants,
il which they were urged, as they
grew to manhood and Womanhood, to
remember the awful cost Of human
warfare, and stand firm for d uni
vcraal peace DR.. David Starr Jor-
dan, the famous peace advocate, while
unable to attend, sent a message to
the children, which, taken from di-
rect wire at the ceremony, was read
to them.
Immediately following Miss Nor
mand was requested to lead similar
event at Phoenix, Ariz., at which Gov
ernor Hunt officiated.
The sponsors of the movement urge
schools, parent-eachcr associations
and educational organizations in ali
portions Of the country to correspond
with them and cooperate in its fur
tForance.

School Statistics Cited.

Nashville, Tenn, Dec. 49,
Persons who believe there should
be some changes in the education
al system of Tennessee are calling
attention to statistics in regard to
attendance and cost of the edu-
cation of children of the state.
Figures are also given as to the
number of pupils in the common
schools and high schools and
normal schools, together with the
cost oftuition and the number of
school days. These statistics are
said to be approximately correct
in every instance, and are pre-
sented to give an idea of the
growth of the states educational
system in various ways and show
how the state funds are distribu-
ted.
This statement shows that the
amount expended for normals and
high schools is 80 per cent. of the
amount paid out for common
schools and the attendance of high
and normal schools is three per
cent. of the number attending
common schools.

GAINESVILLE Market.

ClarksyiIle, Tenn, Nov. IL
Light season last week brought
to the loose floors of the city
about 100000 pounds of tobacco,
mostly of the common types,
which forced ready sales at prices
up to value. Sc so for common
Jugs and from $3.50 to 11.5O for
leaf. 1t is expected when better
grades are offered that prices will
be better.
The country BUYERS continue
their activity and are not failing to
pay liberal prices, paying at least
81 80 per hundred more than was
paid three weeks ago. The COM
petition seems to be greater be-
tween buyers than for many years,
all OF the larger firms having a
large number Of buyers. going in
all directions, not only in Mont
gomerY, but in adjacent counties.
It is believed that fully three
fourths of the crop in the Clarks-
vile district is already sold,
amounting to probably 100000
pounds, which has averaged at
least $40 per hundred or more.
1t is thought that the entire crop
will be sold loose to rehandlers.

Tobacco Suit De-
cided for Purchaser.

A case in circuit court last
week that attracted considerable
attention, principally in view of
the sales at present of the toqacco
crop, was that Of Ezell & Buckner,
Dresden, prizers of leaf tobacco,
against Scott Nowlin. This suit
grew out of the fact that Nowlin
sold his 1915 crop of tobacco to
Ezell & Buckner, and latter, when
an advanced price was being paid,
hauled the crop off to another
prizer, selling for the advanced
price, and the suit was to recover
on commission. Judgment was
rendered in favor OF Ezell & Buck
ner for $36.
A hog case was heard in circuit
court last Friday, before a Jury,
the style OF which was Otto Penick,
Of the Fourteenth district, VS.. the
|. G. r. R. Co. The complainant
showed that the railroad killed
two hogs belonging to him; that
the cattle guard at that point on
the railroad was inefficient and
that by reason Of the poor protec-
ton cattle were frequently killed at
this crossing. Judment was rem
dered in favor of Mr.. Penick for
$34.60.
Eight or ten divorces were
granted by his honor last week.

Nation Wide War
On Living Expenses

All over the nation, in almost
every city, town, hamlet and
village, there has been organized
a war on the high cost of liv-
ing-war on food stuffs sand the
result is bound to be a reduction
OF many commodities. Many
articles of food are two high for
the laboring class of people-too
high for most anybody, unless it
be the editors, railroad presidents,
oil and steel and bond magnets
and millionaires!
But, mind you, this war is all
directed at the farm products.
Nothing is said about the great
increase in the price of shoes and
clothing, for which there is no
equitable, justifable, honorable
reason, except that the manufac-
turer is getting rich-quick!
Where the war ought to be made
is on manufactured articles. God
knows the farmer is. entitled to
his. Recently merchant told US
he was paying twice the sum for
overalls that he paid a year ago.
He said the manufacturer of this
overall claimed an increased cost
of production. Yet, two years
ago, when the buy-a.bale of cot
ton movement was being pushed
to help the poor farmer, this same
overall manufacturer said he had
enough cotton in reserve to last
him five years. Now he claims
increased cost. He bought the
cotton when low. A St. Louis
wholesale firm cleaned up $4,000
profits on silk alone by raising
the price on silks in its house to
conform to the advanced market
quotations. He, too, no doubt,
claims increased cost of produc,
ton forced his price up.
But the point being driven at
is that war is being made on farm
products, The Enterprise says
to hades with It'll Let the farmer

= CLEAN THE SNOW OFF The WALKS :
Tobacco Crop is
About all Sold.

The concensus of opinion among
knowing ones is that the 1916 to-
bacco crop in Weakley county is
about all sold, and deliveries will
be made in large quantities the
very first season, while some came
to Dresden during the present
week.
There are scattering crops in
almost every neighborhood that
are unsold, the owners holding
for the high dollar, which
many believe will be paid. Still
there are those who say that to-
bacco, like cotton, will take a tum-
BILE in price.
1t is reported to the Enterprise
that the two prizing houses at
Dresden - McCuan and Ezell =
have made larger purchases than
for any previous year, and that
when deliveries are made this
town will be full of tobacco wagons
and haulers. This means there
will have to be provided accom-
modations both for the teams
and the drivers, as many will be
forced to remain here over night.
Many who started out to hold
for 10 cents around are now re-
fusing to sell for that price, which
is being pretty generally paid by
the buyers throughout the county,
believing the price will 90 still
higher. The last issue of the Paris
Post-lntelligencer stated that y
cents was being paid for the crop
in that comfy.

Child Born Minus
The Eye Balls.

Considerable interest attaches
to the child born a few days ago
to Mr.. and Mrs. Bud Hall, re.
siding on the Ed Alexander farm,
near Travis Chapel church, minus
the eye balls. DR.. Stephens the
attending physician, informs the
Enterprise that otherwise it is a
healthy, sprightly child, but that
there is not a sign of eye ball in
either place, though sockets are
natural and well formed. The
child is thriving and bids fair to
develop into healthy youngster.
On Tuesday afternoon q num-
Der OF the local physicians went
out with DR.. Stephens to see the
child and examine it. This is the
first case Of the kind that any of
our physicians have ever known
Of, and, naturally, considerable
interest attaches to the sightless
child, especially among the medi-
cos. Many persons have called
to see the little fellow, who will
have to 90 through life without
ever beholding Gods beautiful
sunlight and other beauties of
nature.
DR.. Stephens reports that few
weeks ago child was born in the
same neighborhood with two teeth,
which, however, were removed.

DEAF AND DUMB
MAN SENT TO JAIL
Aged Mute Convicted Of Selling Liquor and
Given Heavy Fine and Thirty
Days in Jail.

A deaf and dumb man named
AGREE from the First district, was
sent to jail on Monday by Judge
Jones for selling liquor, being
given a sentence Of thirty days
and a fine of $50. AGREE, besides
being a mute, is man considera-
bly, advanced in years. The proof
showed that he sold liquor and
he was sent to jail.
This was, perhaps, the first
case on record in this court where
a defendant gave his evidence in
writing and where the questions
were put to him in writing.
Even the sentence of the court
was reduced to writing and passed
to the aged man to read. His
attorney put all the questions in
writing and were answered by
the same method. 1t was a diff
cult case for the court and jury
to handle, but the proof was
sufficient, even from his own
evidence, to convict him. What
a pity these poor unfortunates are
taught to violate the law, instead
Of being instructed to obey the
lawl

it to the knowledge OF the hostile
governments.
The following announcement
was given out today:
THE chancellor this morning
received one after another the rep,
resentatives of the United States
of America, Spain and Switzer-
land, that is of the states protect
ing German interests in hostile
foreign countries. The chancellor
transmitted to them a note and
asked them to bring it to the
knowledge of the hostile govern
ments. The note was read today
in the Reichstag by the chancellor.
In the note the four allied
(central) powers propose to enter
forthwith on peace negotiations.
The propositions which they bring
for such negotiations are, accord
ing to their firm belief, appropriate
for the establishment of lasting
peace.
THE governments at Vienna,
Constantinople and Sofia trans
mitted identical notes and also
communicated with the Holy See
and all other neutral powers.
In his speech before the Reich
stag today Chancellor Won Beth

Germany, together with her allies,
conscious Of their responsibility
before God, before their own ma
ton and before humanity" have
proposed to the hostile powers to
enter into peace negotiations.
