TENNESSEE POLYTECHNIC
INSTITUTE

The Tennessee Polytechnic Insti-
tute Is a successful school. 1t has a
large, enthusiastic student BODY,
which is fastly growing in numbers
and doing much splendid work
Every member of it's faculty of able
teachers has won the love and high
esteem not only of the student body,
but of all who have met them.
The school has two modern brick
dormitories, splendidly equipped with
electric lights, water, and steam heat
ing plants. The rooms are all we'll
lighted, clean and comfortable.
The board is wholesome and sub
stantial, costing only $500 month,
which is unusually low when taking
into consideration the extremely high
cost of food stuffs at this time.
The main building is modern in
every respect, having well equipped
and well lighted class rooms, best of
chemical and mechanical laboratory
equipment and first class equipment
for the commercial courses.
The Mechanical Arts building being
built by the students of the Manual
Arts course is rapidly nearing COM
pletion, and will also be well equip
red with tools, benches, drawing
desks, etc. The Agricultural and
Teachers Training Departments are
also in good shape, and doing excel
lent work.
The school plant is located on a
most beautiful tract of land lying on
the outskirts of Cookeville 1t is
high and dry, and desirable in every
respect.
Students looking for a good school
to enter could not make mistake in
selecting T. p. /.

TAG DAY FOR UNITED CHARITIES

Saturday will be Tag Day for The
benefit of the United Charities, and
young women who are interested in
the work will take their stand on tic
various corners of the popular streets
and will spend the day pinning tags
on those who will help in the worthy
cause. 1t is hoped that the people
will respond literally to the appeal
to help in the movement and that
the amount realized will be large
enough to carry the work to a sue
cessful conclusion during the ap-
preaching winter.
The weather has now turned cold
and many appeals are already being
made upon the United Chrities for
assistance. Food and the necessi-
ties to life have gone to prices that
are beyond the reach Of many, and
there will be greater demands for
help than heretofore. Your nei 1h-

the satisfaction of knowing that you

more comfortable The glow of the

MAKE YOUR MONEY DO DOUBLE
DUTY.
BY w. A. Morgan.

Much money is spent every year
with the mail order houses in far
away cities in an attempt to make
money do double duty. Those who
have given the matter much atten-
tion know what failures such attempts
must always prove. Whether you
buy goods at home or abroad there
are certain items of expense that tire
necessary in getting them to you.
Taxes must be paid on the money
invested in the goods, clerks must be
hired, and freight paid. In addition
to these expenses the mail order
house must pay big Office force to
look after its correspondence, shipp-
ing clerks to see after all it's thous-
ands of small shipments, and an
enormous advertising bill for work
that is done to make you believe it
will give you more than your money
Is worth. Who pays these expenses
Do you think that the great mail or
der houses are going to bear all these
expenses just for the pleasure of Civ
ing you bargains and make no char
ges to you.
Money spent by guess can hardly
do double duty. No matter how hon.
est the house with which you deal,
buying by mail is always largely
guess work. You can't tell how the
article will look, fit, or feel If when
it comes, it just suits you, you are
lucky indeed. If it doesn't suit, you
must either go to the trouble and ex-
pense' of returning it and trying to
get your money back, or else you
must keep it and be dissatisfied as
long as it lasts.
The only way to make your money
do double duty at the store is to
spend it with your home merchants.
What you spend with them not on
Iy pays for what you buy, but their
taxes are paid here instead of in
some distant city and part OF all
they receive goes to provide streets
and roads, to protect our property,
and to educate our young. Increased
BUSINESS enables our local men to
sell at closer prices, to improve their
places of business. and to keep larg-
ar stocks for you to select from.
Burn up those old catalogues and
et's stick to the business and profess
sional men of our town and county
who are helping to make this a more
lesira BILE place to live in.

Moran is earnest and ambitious.
He is a hard hitter and is always
trying hard, but he lacks the fin

Willard is so big that Moran will
not be able to reach the champion

be effective. I don't think he can
