SCHOOL DAYS
BY NJ. ]. L.

was standing on the corner,
On a bright October day;
While a crowd Of children passed me
All happy, merry and gay.
Because the dear old school house,
A block or two away;
Now opened for the fail term
And you heard the children say:
Hip, hip, hurrarh! for our school
house,
Our dear old school house gay;
Once more we are back TO our lessons
To hear the dear teacher say
We are back to our lessons, dear
children,
To study them every day;
To know them well and repeat Them

wELL-EXPANDED LUNGS

Pure blood is indispensable to the
health and strength of the lungs. The
delicate structure of these organs
makes il necessary. When the blood
is impure the lungs lose their tone,
and even if they are permitted to ex-
pand freely, they have not the power
fully to perform their important
work. The fact is, there is nothing
more necessary in our physical econ
omy than pure blood-the kind OF
blood that Hoods Sarsaparilla makes.
This medicine is the good old reliable
family remedy for diseases OF the
blood. scrofula, rheumatism. catarrh,
and low or rundown conditions of
the system. At this time, when
coughs and colds are so prevalent.
Hoods Sarsaparilla is an invaluable
tonic. Get it today, and begin TO take
I at once. Accept no substitute.

Tennessee Editor
Autos Here.

Mayor Will Gradolph of Clifton
Terrace was in the city last even
ing and with him was Joe L. Hol-
brook, editor and proprietor of the
Dresden, Tenn. Enterprise. Mr..
Holbrook is a genial gentleman
and is a hard roads or good roads
booster. He believes dragging
the roads consistently and thor
oughly will solve the bad roads
question, where macadam or brick
are out OF the question. He made
the trip from his home IN his
automobile and brought his family
with him. He has two weeks
vacation, he says, and desired to
spend that two weeks where it
would do himself and family the
most good, in Clifton Terrace,
Illinois, where the ozone is like
new vine; the people like regular
human beings; the fish like turkey
elsewhere; the milk like honey; |
butter like nectar Of the gods, and
the eatables generally such as
Caesar never tasted and for which
Cleopatra would not have killed
herself if she could have cooked,
as Clifton Terrace women can and
do prepare them. Mr.. Holbrook's
was decorated with
good roads steamers, and these
flashed out their message or ap.

full Of people, come to have a
share in the joyous abandon of the
day There will be prizes for every
contest.
The creased pole will have its
dollar resting securely on top Of it,
waiting for the man who can
climb to those slippery heights.
The winner Of the pie-eating con-
test will get a prize big enough to
pay for all the medicine he may
need the next day. Popcorn,
peanuts and lemonade will be
abundant, flowing and cheap.
Dresden is preparing to enter
tain her friends from the east and
west and the north and south of
the county. She wants every
man, woman and child to come to
SEE her on that day. She is going
to kill the fatted calf and welcome
everybody to the feast,
Come prepared to have a good
time, for you are going to have it,
The glorious Fourth is never
going to be more gloriously cele-
brated.
Full details of the day will

After journey ofI727 miles, the
editor, wife and daughter, Miss
Forrest, Mrs. Mary Garrett and
Hon. Alfred Thomson, reached

having left Alton, ILL.,, thirty
miles above st. Louis, on Tues

The entire trip was made with,

even a puncture coming or 60

fully, despite the miserable Hi
nois roads, which are used ex-
tensivelY as drainage for farms.
Many interestering sights were
observed enroute-too many to
enumerate.
On the trip Of 727 miles we
used a grand total Of forty-seyen
gallons Of gasoline, which cost
on a average Of twenty-five cents
a gallon, making 1904 Transport

The American note fatty re-
iecting Gen. Carranza's demand
for the withdrawal of United States
troops from Mexico, and rebuking
the Carranza government for the
discourteous tone and temper OF
its last communication was handed
today to Eliseo Arradondo, the
Mexican ambassador designate.
Long continued outrages against
Americans and their property,
both in Mexico and on American
soil, are reviewed and warning
given that the troops will be kept
in Mexico until such time as the
de facto government performs the
duty which the United States has
not sought,o of pursuing the bandits,
who ought to be arrested and
punished by the Mexican govern
ment.
1t concludes with the statement
that if the de iacto government
continues to ignore this obligation
and carries out its threat to de-
fend its territory by an appeal to
arms against the American troops,
the gravest consequences will
follow.
While this government would
deeply regret such a result" says
the note, 1T cannot recede from
its settled determination to main
tain its national rights and to per-
form its full duty in preventing
further invasions of the territory
of the United States and in re-
moving the perial which Ameri-
cans, along the international
boundary, have borne so long with
patience and forbearance."

WHETHER IT Be WAR OR
PEACE LIES WITH MEXICO.
Flat Rejection of Carranzas Demand For
Withdrawal of American TroopSand
Rebuke for Discuurteous Words.
ARE PREPARING FOR CLASH.

Washington, June 20.-In the
face of the multitude of reports
indicating seething war spirit
throughout Mexico, the United
States emphatic refusal to with
darw Gen. Pershing's expedition
was communicated officially to
Gen Carranza today.
Whether the result will mean
war depends on the Mexicans, and
Gen. Carranza is so informed.
Citizens of both nations ap-
parently are preparing for it.
Opposing military forces are
facing each other in the border
region.
Mobilization of the national
guard in every state was being
rushed today
Gen. Carranza in another speech
at Mexico City, however, has
expressed the hope that hostilities
may be avoided.
The terms Of the United States
reply to the Carranza note sde-
handing removal of American
troops from Mexico leave no doubt
that the United States government
is approaching the end Of its
patience with Mexican annoyances,
hut that it still maintains its
original policy Of entering war
only for defense.
Even while these assurances
were being conveyed, came reports
that Mexicans were enlisting for
military service under the i'm
preston that the United states
armies are about to attack Mexico.
An ultimatum, said to be vir-
tually declaration of war, has
been served on Commander
Kavanaugh Of the United States
gunboat Annapolis by Gen. Flores,
Carranza governor Of the State Of
Sinaloa, west coast, it is reported
to the naval authorities. The

tiers said that Admiral Winslow,
commander of the Pacific fleet,
could blockade effectively withinsa
short time every port on the Mex
lean west coast if events rendered
such action necessary.
1t also was reported that Admi.

1t was announced.
Not since the beginning of the
Mexican troubles has there been
such a powerful fleet sent to the
Mexican littoral for patrol pur-
poses, nor has an American admit
raj ever before taken the precau-
ton so to place his fighting ships
that within a few moments after
an outbaeak of hostilities be could
effectually blockade every west
coast Mexican port from Guaymas
to Selma Cruz.

WEST COAST PORTS,
Admiral Winslow'S Fighting Ships So
Placed as to Dominate Absolutely
Mexicos Outlets to Pacific.
MARINES RUSHED TO FRONT.

Washington, June q. The IN
tied States today anxiously await
ed word from Mexico City regard
ing Gen. Carranza's attitude to-
ward the American note sent him
yesterday, for on him depended the
question Of war between the two
republics.
High officials here admitted pri-
vately they look for war, although
care was taken to avoid any form
al expression or acts which might
appear fore-runners of a declara-
ton Of war.
The only answer required from
Gen. Carranza is action SUPPRESS
ing outlaw treatment OF Amer leans
and officials feared against hope
that this would not be done.
Unofficial versions of the note
probably were published in Mexi-
co City today and the official text
may already be in Gen. Carranza's
hands.
Military authorities were look
ing for the de facto governments
attitude in Mexican threatening
troop movements near the border
to-day, and in preparation for these
the war department was getting
ready to act on Gen. Funston's re-
quest for immediate dispatch of a
national guard units to the border.
1t was said Secretary Baker and
President Wilson probably would
determine what organizations
should be sent.
The fotilla of torpedo boat de-
stroyers, consisting Of the Hull,
Aagshipof Lieutenant W. W. Brad
ley, fotilla commander, Hopkins

day for dash down the Mexican
west coast to join other units Of

FultOn-J Jackson
Highway Planned

There was a meeting of good
road enthusiasts from many West
Tennessee towns at Jackson Tues.
day, The object OF the meeting
was to lay plans for a road from
Fulton to Jackson, to appoint a
board to supervise the construction
OF the road and to procure the ac-
ceptance by the federal government
Of the road when completed as a
government highway.
1t is understood that the govern.
ment intends to adopt some West
Tennessee road as a government
highway, and it is possible that
this would be graveled at tbs ex-
pense of the government. Several
routes have been proposed for this
highway, but it will be some time
before selection is made. The
selecting committee will be COM
posedof government engineers, a re-
preventative Of the American Auto
mobile association and a repre-
sentative of the state highway as
ISOLATION. Meanwhile, the towns
along the various routes are bust
ly engaged in improving the roads
which they hope to be selected.
The men present at the Jackson
convention were. practically unani-
nous in wanting the Fulton-to-
Jackson highway to follow the Ill
nois Central railroad company's
line through Mcconnell, Martin,
Sharon, Greenfield, Milan and on
to Jackson. This is the shortest
route by several miles and is on
the direct line of the Chicago-to-
Gulf highway, which is to be con-
structed this summer probably.
1t is said that two thousand auto
owners have already made
for charts of this great
highway with the inten-
ton of following it from end to
end during the summer.
1t is probable that a competing
Fulton-to-Jackson route will be
by the towns along the
line of the Mobile & Ohio railroad.
A board Of seven men, one of
whom is T. ]. Taylor, of Martin,
we're selected by the convention to
the enthusiasm and to
secure the cooperation OF all the
towns along the route. These men
are to supervise the construction
Of the road and to get it in shape
Tor acceptance by the government
as government highway.
