Teachers Examination.

On July IA and Is another
examination will be gwen for all
subjects in Dresden. Those who
failed on any subjects may take
them over,
Let me say just here that all
teachers who are to be principals
of what are known as the old
secondary schools must hold a
high school certificate covering
the subjects taught in that school,
What | mean to say is, that you
cannot be principal Of secondary
school and just hold a certificate
on one Of the high school groups
For the benefit Of this class o.
teachers Superintendent Sheriff.
will issue a third. grade certificate
which will entitle a teacher to be
principal Of a secondary school on
the following subjects: Spelling,
grammar, arithmetic, algebra,
rhetoric, general history, biology
and reading circle.
If you have already taken some
of these subjects in one of the
groups you do not have to take
them over-iust take those subjects
on which you have no grades. F

| take this method of acquaint.
ing the hunting public with the
game law of the county and state,
relative to the payment of license,
The law reads as follows:

Cotton Condition
Is 1873 Per Cent

The condition of the crop as OF
average date Of June % is 1873 per
cent Of normal, according to re-
ports of correspondents of the
Commercial Appeal,
This compares with the govern
ment condition of IT'S per cent on
May % Of this year, 1913 per cent
on June Is last year and the ten
year average for this date of 6O.2
per cent.
Best progress of the crop has
been prevented bylow temperatures
and too much rain over various
localities in the belt. While these
rains have visited practically every
state in the belt, they have not
covered any one state, so that con-
ditions are spotted. Hawever, there
are many complaints of grassy
fields and rank plant growth.
Plant averages somewhat late, but
is healthy, as a rule. Blooms are
reported as far north as Tennessee,
while some hollis are reported from
around the middle Of the belt.
Boil weevil are numerous in al
most all previously infested areas
and some damage is already re-
ported as having been done, al
though this is small to date.
Farmers are making stiff fight
against the pest, but the latter
seem to be gaining Roadway in
most districts.

A Lyceum Course
For This Winter.

Announcement is made that
Dresden will have another lyceum
course this winter, the Dresden
School Improvement association
to guarantee the entertainments.
There will be six splendid num-
bers on the program this time, in
stead Of five, as last winter, all Of
them choice entertainments. The
sale of tickets will doubtless begin
at an early date and all citizens OF
the town and community are urg-
ed to avail themselves of this rare
opportunity to see and hear some
superb entertainments.
Last year, when the young
ladies undertook to bring these
high.class entertainers to Dresden,
the project was looked upon with
some misgivings. 1t was feared
there would be efficiency, but,
to the surprise OF many, when the
last number had been given and
all accounts settled in full there
was snug sum left in treasury.
This was the result of systematic
hustling upon the part Of Misses
House and Fuller, who deserve
the hearty cooperation of all our
people in the present undertaking,
We have not been furnished a
list of the entertainments, nor the
dates, but hope to publish these at
an early date.

Couple of Weddings
At PalmerSville,

Two weddings OF two very
prominent couples occurred al
PaImersville on Wednesday after
moon. when Mr.. Charlie Killgore,
son Of Mr.. Nat Killgore, Of
,Palmersville, and Miss Sudie Nc.
Wherter, daughter OF Mr. and
Mrs. D. A. McWherter, OF Ores
den, and Mr.. Clyde Pentecost and
Miss Zula Biggs, daughter OF Dr.
Reuben Biggs and wife, were
Joined in holy wedlock.
The first ceremony was said by
ESQ. Casey Pentecost. This we'd
ding was a profound surprise to the
family and friends of the bride. In
fact, it was a Gretna Green
affair, the parents of the bride
opposing the match. The bride
is one of Dresden's most uni
versally popular young ladies,
possessing a bright, sunny, Iowa
bile disposition, and her legion Of
friends regret to give her up from
their social circles. The groom
is indeed a handsome young man.
He was reared at Palmersyille
and has a great host Of friends who
wish for himself and bonny bride
many years OF married bliss.
Mr.. Clyde Pentecost is also one
OF that community's most deserg.
ing young gentlemen, while his
bride is not only a social tavorite
at Palmersville, but enjoys an
extensive acquaintance over the
county and state. She is a young
lady of rare attainments ano
spersonal charms. This ceremony
was performed by Rev. G. 7
Mayo at the home of the bride !;
parents. After the wedding q
supper was given at the home Of
Mr.. and Mrs. Biggs, enjoyed by
many friends.
The Enterprise wishes, along
with many friends, for both these
happy couples long years Of
happiness, health and prosperity

TENNESSEE.

Although the plant is still grow

cent rains have lowered the stand

very grassy and a considerable
period of warm, open weather is

from this defect and some cool
nights. the crop made good pro-
