Another Good Reason Why
Bond Issue Should Garry

The city has received assur-
ances from the railroad company
that a rate of 80 cents will apply
on rock from Hopkinsville, to be
used in building good streets, if
such rock is ordered by, and paid
for by the city, out of the gener-
al funds, for the benefit of,all. the
citizens thereof, but they have
ruled that they could not give this
rate, if any part of the cost is
against the property owners.
Vote for the bond issue aud
help the city get advantage Of
this rate.
Every block constructed with
this rate in effect will save the
city $500 to $4,000.

TO Be REDUCED
One Hundred Howell Shop
Men Laid OFF Because of
Scarcity of Work

Section Foreman Ballard, in
charge Of the touth end section,
has received orders to reduce his
force of section men to six men
commencing Wednesday. As he
works ten men this means that
four of his force will lose their
positions.
The order will have no effect
on SECTION Foreman Perdue, who
is charge of the section north of
Burlington.
Commencing Wednesday the
section will work only nine hours
and be idle in bad weather.
One hundred men employed in
the Howell shops of the l.. & N.

initely. The reason assigned for
this action is the scarcity of work.
Only one of the men who went
from here to Howell is affected.

Col. w. A. Toombs responded
to request of the Fordsville
Masonic lodge to attend a meet

guest into an auto and spent the
day cruising over the country
visiting the neighboring towns

DR., Mayhem Returns from South

DIR. and Mrs. Mayhem, have return
ed from an enjoyable trip to the south
land, visiting Richmond, the city on
seven hills, Charleston and Mcclellan
Vile. At Charleston they visited st.
Michael's church, the Oldest church in
America, the lumber, pipe organ and
bell of which were brought from Eng-
land. Charleston is the third oldest
city in America, and has many histori-
cal places of interest.
While on the trip they spent three
days with John Taylor and family,
who are wintering at McClellanville,
s. c., who entertained them royalty.
DR.. Mayhem went on a cunning trip
with Nh. Taylor and bagged some
wild ducks, quail, etc. On another trip
they visited some large plantations,
here the flowers were all in bloom the
moss was clinging TO the trees and the
orange trees bearing fruit. The Ssntee
River was also visited by the party.
During the Civil war the soldiers ca me
along this river. Several Of the old
buildings have marks of the Civil war
musketry.

1. o. O. F. Ladies Niaht

Last Monday evening Holly Beach
Lodge held a Ladies Night and the
affair was well attended despite the
fact of the threatened inclement wealth.
er. AT about eight o'clock the brothers
and their wives and families and
friends began to arrive and the jolly
throng Immediately got acquainted
with one another. An orchestra, COM
posed Of Miss Florence Funck, who
presided at the piano, and Messrs.
George MacCulloch, Walter Gallaher,
William Kalbach and Charles Leiby,
furnished the music for the evening.
The program was as follows:
Overture by the orchestra.
Recitation by Miss Joy Bright.
Singing, NEARER My God to Thee"
Recitation by Mrs. A. M. Ely.
Singing, "Star Spangled Banner
Address by Rev. A. Q. Bailey,
Overture by the orchestra.
Address by William H. Bright.
Tables were spread and the assem-.
blage sat down to a luncheon prepared
by the entertainment committee of the
lodge who were brothers g. G.. Graef,
A. M. Ely and w. H. Bright, and
much credit is due them and those
who assisted them in making the eve
ming n of enjoyment for those pre-
sent.
After all had partaken heartily of
the good things provided the orchestra
swung into dance music and up to q
late hour this psstime was INDUCED
in.
1t is only fitting to remark that the
recitation given by Miss Bright was
very pathetic and portrayed incidents
that happen here and there in the every
day walk of life, and this also can be
said of the recitation rendered by Mrs.
Ely. Rev. Bailey's remarks were in a
degree extemporaneous but decidedly
to the point and carried with It'll lesson,
while that ever able speaker, w. H.
Bright, held his hearers in close atten-
ton on the subjucts of the great world
tragedy and the principles of the uni
versal brotherhood of man.
Holly Beach Lodge of Odd Fellows
has a bright future ahead of it and
Monday nights social affair was but
one of the mile stones along the high
way OF its success.

TYPE "B"
and
TYPE &c"
lamps

For "downward' or general lighting will give
you even more light for the same vantage"
than the regular Mazda lamps.
Many improvements have been made in the
original Tungsten flatnent lamp and this is
one of them. The Target size, type &c" has
a small amount of nitrogen gas in the globe,
which allows the flament to be heated to
higher incandescence, without injuring the
metal; this means a more brilliant light and
consequently "a bigger run for your money"
Now, type OBJ lamps are the smaller sizes,
although of a similar manufacture they do
not contain any nitrogen gas. But their
efficiency is also "way up"
See if you can improve your lighting, but
not increase your bills. Ask us to show you
Mr.. "B" or Mr.. &c" and see what you think
of them.
