IS a queer younElOne, fun Of strange
lancies and funny, precocious little
WAYS, and instead of being managed
she is managing them, their store and

cactus corners, Dec. 23.
Dear Dolly;
Doesn't it seem silly to spend a
HUNDRED dollars or so Just to get
| drunk on New Years ever We al
ways have a big celebration on at tho
corners that night and all it effects
is a rip roaring headache the next
day and economy for a month to
make up. Brother says he can get
just as good stew for two dollars
and it feels Just the same the next
day and doesn't prevent him from
, buying new shoes for the baby dur
ing the January sales.
Don't you hate the people who
dash madly down to the store when
they receive an unexpected present
and buy any old thing and mail back?
Seems to me that is one of the great
est deceits of Christmas. If you don't
think enough Of people to remember
to send them something early, it is an
insult to their generosity to try and
pay hack" their true thoughtfulness
with false. BY the way, can you stop
and order me a bunch of posies for
Aunt Jane? She sent me the loveli-
est Crocheted yoke and l. didn't give
her a thing. Flowers are awfuly ex-
pensive, but I'd hate to think she
would pass me up next year. Her
things are always so nice
Honorable Aniceto c. Abeytia, for
merly president of the School of
Mines board of regents, had a harrow
ing experience to say the least short
time ago. He was found stranded in
the midst of the wilds of the mesa
between Socorro and San Antonio,
sitting in great distress behind the
wheel of his machine while the horn
sounded a continual warning Of his
presence to all who might be passing
within a radius Of half mile
The passer-hy climbed down from
his automobile and stopped beside Mr.,
Abeytias companion who was lying
flat on his back on a Navajo blanket
the workings of the
thing The traveller suggested that
the horn be taken off and left to
squawk to it's hearts content out
there in the desert, but Mr.. Aheyta
was solicitious that he should not
break a city ordinance by driving a
machine without proper means of an
his approach. However he
concluded that it was better to be
liable TO arrest than to be liable to
the insane asylum, and allowed his
horn to be unscreWed and relieved Of
its voice. Faithfully,

Lee Burt. a prominent planter of this
vicinity has demonstrated beyond a
doubt that diversified farming pays
we'll; he had on exhibition here today,
samples of sorghum syrup, which in APP
pearance and taste equaled any sugar
cane syrup ever brought to this market.
Mr.. Burt stated that he found a ready
market for all he could make, and the
returns were very satisfactory, he will
make from a small acreage planted to
milIet more than 1000 gallons. Mr.. Burt
states that with him growing millet for
syrup was in it's experimental stage, but
his acreage another year would be
greatly increased.

school Is under the supervision of Mrs.

ALBANY

Albany, October ESPECIAL 1.-The city
council of Albany will meet again next
Monday night to tackle the problem OF
electing two patrolmen, a sanitary in
spector and a. street superintendent. At
the special meeting last night called for
tfat purpose the council delayed action,
owing to the lines of Alderman J. A.
Tidwell, who was unable to attend. A
resolution drawn by City Attorney Ten
mis- Tidwell at the request of aldermen,
calling a special election for Saturday,
choice of candidates, and binding the
council to elect the men who led in the
balloting, was not presented. 1t is
thought that the aldermen responsible
for the drawing of the resolution feared
that it would not pass, and for this rea-
son it was withheld. There is a SHARP
fight on for the four positions. and the
council is badly divided as to its choice.
A. G. Patterson, one of the two mem
bers of the democratic executive commit
tee from the Eighth congressional dis
trict, and we'll known local merchant
has been notified by General Bibb Graves
of his appointment as a member OF the
democratic campaign committee, of
which Borden Burr of Birmingham, was
named chairman. Mr.. Burr has written
Mr.. Patterson that a meeting of the
campaign committee has been called for
Saturday at noon at the Tutwiler hotel,
Birmingham. Mr.. Patterson will at
tend.
A night school for employed men has
opened at the Y. M. C. A. under the
direction of Prof. J. t. Carter, principal
OF the Albany High school, and Herman

uate of Mercer, was chosen as head mas
ter.
The highest price paid for cotton here
