GUS candidates for the first team and
early in the game he realized that the
never-failing accuracy Of some of the
old scouts who have donned the uni
forms for several seasons past, had
cinched the coveted halo of victory"
and began to work his men out on
feature plays.
Thomas in the box, dispensed the
ball to the visitors in fine shape, pitch
ing that "devilarm" curve with the
speed of a AZ centimeter ,Krupp. The
Lynnville aggregation were unable to
pick any of the fruit offered to their
advantage and would leave the home
plate with smiling red faces and q
slight touch of nervous prostration.
The bearers Of the purple and the
gold literally peppered the outfield
with safe hits, thereby obtaining much
practice in running bases, but the only
home-run featured during the contest
was made by Shelton, the feet-footed
little shortstop.
At the close of the seventh inning,
Akin relieved Thomas in the box and
although a little wild at controlling
his balls at first the visitors were
unable to locate his curves and struck
at random, sometimes hindering the
pill on its onward course and placing
1t into the waiting hands of the classy
oGttielders Receiver Moore handled
the offerings of pitchers, Thomas and
Akin in first class style as did Cocker,
the masterful little backstop for the
visiting team, who received the balls
thrown by his co-worker, King, whose
name is rather appropriate for the way
in which he twirled the apple.

MILAEY WILL BE-
A REALIST NOW
MADAME CUSTER TALKS INTER.
ESTINGLY OF THE NEW
STYLES.

Mrs. A. S. Custer, who is at the head
of the dress-making department of
the Maury Dry Goods Co., talks quite
entertainingly about the new spring
and summer fashions in milady' g
wardrobe:
AT last, milady is no longer pea
cock, humming bird or a fiamingo
as she moves down the avenue. She's
instead of adOring her gar
ments with make-believe clouds, gos-
samer foliage and other things appeal
ing to the imagination, the American
woman has evolved the fashion of the
safe, sane, comfortable for the coming
season.
"Milady this year wears a hat
which is made an exact imitation of
basket-and out of the same stuff.
She wears gown which is built on
the natural lines OF barrel. She
wears other hats, which are made out
of rope the same kind clerks use to
tie about piano boxes. All this she
wears and more. Her skirts are short
er and fuller.
"The only idea Is to insure comfort.
And for her afternoon tea gown she
has borrowed from the Breton peas
ant, The gowns are simple and have
aprons-honest to goodness aprons at
tached in front, the same as the Breton
peasant wears in serving in the
kitchen. The collars are wide and
the skirts stand out shapelessly so far
as the human figure is concerned. This
simplicity, according to the dress
makers exhibiting, is only one indi-
cation of the new trend.
THE fashions for evening wear
bark back to the dark ages--to me-
dieval times. Dress-makers have
turned their imagination loose among
the queer ornamental fields of the
early centuries and the result Is to be
seen in quaint lines, straight jacket
effects, antique modes and almost
masquerade costume gowns. The DOS
sibilities offered by medieval fashions
have only been tapped. We expect to
go on and evolve in America the most
decorative fashions of the last cen.
tury."

STATE ENGINEER

TOLL ROADS COUNTY

{ PROPOSED TO BE PUR-
CHASED HERE.

The County Court In the Purchase
Of The Roads-Questlon up at the

Saturdays Daily.)

With Judge ]. T. Mcknight and sew
eral of the members of the county
court, Engineer Nelson, of the state
highway commission on Friday in
spected five of the toll roads Of the
county, which it is proposed to buy.
These roads were the Williamsport,
Hampshire, Campbellsville, Pulaski
and Santa Fe. He Is today going over
the remainder of the roads.
Engineer Nelson took copious notes
upon the roads as he road along them.
Naturally he made no observations as
to what he thought of the roads or
their condition or value, He will,
however, at an early date submit a
report in writing to County Judge
Mcknight on the roads and their esti-
mated worth.
This inspection Is being made pre-
paratory to the meeting of the county
court on April 10, when the question
of the purchase OF the remaining toll
roads Of the county will be brought
up for action. The report of the engi-
neer will be guide to the court in
reaching a conclusion. He came with
out charge to the county, the only cost
being his expenses while making the
Inspection.

PURCHASE OF Pixies
BY COUNTY COURT
IN APRIL PROBABLE
MAJORITY OF MEMBERS HAVE
PRACTICALLY AGREED UPON
THE PROGRAM.
MAKE INSPECTION OF ROADS
Aid Of An Expert For Purpose OF
Arriving at the Condition Of High
ways-if no Hitch all In County
Will be Acquired Soon.

That the county court will at Its
coming session on April 10 take steps
looking to the early purchase Of the
! toll roads of the county seems practi-
cally assured now. In fact, 1t has been
known for some time that the members
of the court had experienced decided
change of mind upon the question
since it was last presented at an ad'
journed meeting in September. Ever
since that time sentiment for the pur-
chase of the pixies has been growing
apace, and it is now stated authorita-
lively that majority of the court will
act with that end in view.
In order that there may be no Ques-
ton raised as to the price that the
court will be willing to pay for the
pixies a thorough inspection with the
aid of an expert engineer is being
made. The large majority Of the
members of the court have pretty
god knowledge of the condition of the
pixies, but many Of them want the
benefit of the expert knowledge of one
better qualified to determine matters
Of this character.
1t is said that the majority Of the
court have practically reached an
agreement as to the amount that
should be paid for the pixies. Wheth-
er or not such a figure will be ac-
,eeptable to the owners, or whether il
1t is not an agreement will be satisfac1
torily reached as was the case with
the two pixies already purchased, are
matters that cannot now be deter
mined. But it is certain, however,
that the prospects for the acquisition
by the county of the turnpikes and
the abolition of the toll gates have
never been so bright since the agita-
ton commenced.
The court is committed already for
mally to the purchase of the pixies by
resolution formally adopted at the
July term of last year 1t was in pur-
suance to that resolution that the Gull
leoka and Sowell Mill pixies were pur-
chased.

where these boxes are and to get

These boxes are going to be needed
and badly needed at the coming cleo
ton. All who know where one is
located will confer lasting favor on
the members Of the board by returning
the same to the court house.
