On $40 weekly each, it was obvious
that these three households. maintained
separately, would have to give up ev-
erything but the barest necessaries of
life.
Instead of doing this, they "pooled" "
resources, moved into the country.

BANas SEND IN Long LISTS
Collections So Far Are Decidedly
Ahead of Last Year and Delinquent
List is Going to be an Unusually
Short One.

1t will be three or four days before
the force in the country trustees Office
gets all of the tax receipts for which
statements have been sent in by the
banks and-by mail are written up and
posted There are probably not less
than thousand OF these receipts to
write. On February 20, all of the
banks of the county sent in long lists
for their customers. In addition there
were scores of people in the county
and away from here who sent In their
checks on the last day. These were
all filed away and will be attended to
as rapidly as possible The receipts
will all be dated February 20, to show
that the taxes were paid before the
penalty accrued
Collections so far have been better
than they were year ago. 1t is esti-
mated by Trustee Addison that 800
receipts more than have been issued
this year than were issued last and
there is the big list that have not yet
been attended to. The promptness
with which the taxpayers have met
their obligations this year is a pretty
good indication of prosperity in the
county. Again the fact that the leg
islature last year postponed the PEN
atty was responsible for much of the
delay. 1t looks now like the delinquent
list will be one Of the smallest in
years.

Celebrating the third anniversary OF

years ago today, the day upon which
Woodrow Wilson was inaugurated
president of these United States, the
Guided circle of the Kings Daugh-
tiers announce that they will build a
sun parlor on the east porch of the
hospital This parlor has long been
needed and will be one of the most
notable improvements yet made.
The sun parlor will cost about $3.50
and will be constructed at once. The
entire expense will be provided by
the Guided circle.
During the three years that it has
been in operation the Kings Daugh-
tiers hospital has proven one of the
best institutions in this section. 1t

ALLOWANCE MADE
KINGS DAUGHTERS
TWENTY-FIVE DOLLARS WILL BE
GIVEN MONTHLY OUT OF THE
CHARITY FUND.

The board Of mayor and aldermen
met last night and allowed $25 per
month to be given to the Kings Daugh-
ters' hospital out of the charity fund.
The meeting was called to order at
7:30 o'clock and the regular routine
of business was gone through. The
motion for the allowance to the Kings
Daughters was made and unanimously
carried.
This is great step taken by the
city fathers and it is only the begin
ming to inspire into the minds and
hearts of the people of Columbia the
necessity Of aiding and contributing
to the good work that is being done
at this institution.

of the city and county is that they
have gotten along for all these years
without the Kings Daughters hospital
They could not do without it now. 1t
is now officially recognized by both
the city and the county regular appro-
priations being made to aid it in its
charity work.
The need for a sun parlor has long
been felt as there are more typhoid
patients than those suffering from any
other trouble at the hospital.
Since the opening of the hospital
three years ago there have been no
less than 675 patients admitted to
the institution. This is an average
of 225 every year. In other words,
more than four persons have found
relief every week within the walls Of
the hospital.

Victor Popular Teacher In Local

Miss Carrie Smith, one of the eff

won the IS in gold offered by the Fig
uers Realty company for the best ad-
vertisement of sixty acres of Maury
county land. The contest was judged
by the Basham Advertising Agency,
of Louisville to whom all of the adj
vertisements submitted was sent
This is one of the leading agencies of
the country and a competent judge of
advertisements.
The advertisement which won the
prize appears in The Herald today just
as it was written and outlined by Miss
Smith. PROFESSIONALLY the advertise
ment is a splendid one and would be
so pronounced in any newspaper Of
flee in the country. 1t is an exception
ally clever play on the name of Fig
uers, the real estate concern and in
few words it pointedly and attractive
ly presents a meritorious proposition.
In other words, there is punch in
each line of the advertisement.
In returning the advertisement, L.
E. Stockard, the well known ad writer,
says that he thinks the advertisement
of Miss Smith the best real estate
advertisement he ever saw. In his
letter he says: IT have carefully gone
over all of the ads which you sent me,
and it soon resolved itself into
choice between those of Miss Carrie
E. Smith, Mrs. A. W. Lipscomb. A. B
Sowell and one marked 1909 School
Street Between these a choice was
hard to make, so Isput 1t to vote of
the members of our organization and
Miss Smith won. Personally, think
this is the best real estate ad | have
ever seen-the originality and play on
the words "Figuers" is worth an addi-
tional prize"
