Marriage ofPopu-
lar Young People.

A beautiful wedding of the
season was that of Miss Annie
Lee Brummitt and Mr.. Lucian
Green Everett, Of Mckenzie, at
the brides home in Gleason on
Saturday evening.
The house was decorated with
roses and ferns. An arch on the
porch covered with roses marked
the place of ceremony. To the
strains Of Mendelssohn's wedding
march the bride and groom came
out, preceded by the flower girl,
little Miss Dorothy Brummitt.
She was pretty in her dress Of
white, carrying a pink basket
with rose petals. The bride was
beautiful in her wedding gown Of
white organdy, and a veil of
chifforn caught up with lilies of
the valley. Her flowers were
bride siroses.
Rev. Johnson, Of Mckenzie,
and Rev. Witt 7. Holley officiated

PROVIDING A YEARS WORK
(By C. E. Alfred, Division of Extension,
University of Tennessee.)

(By C. E. Alfred, Division of Extension,
University of Tennessee.)
No matter how profitable a crop may
be, there is a limit to the amount that
can be raised with a given amount of
labor And the labor on farm is
usually fairly constant for a given
year. AS only small fraction of the
year can be devoted to one crop, the
farmer must determine the combina-
ton that will give the greatest Teturns
for the years work.
Cotton, corn and tobacco have been
the great crops in the south. But the
work on these conflicts seriously, par
ticularly in the northern part of the
cotton region Further south cotton
and corn go together better. Cotton
interferes with most other crops. This
is one reason why cotton farming has
so often been one-crop system.
No one should expect to make a
very large profit from farming, unless
his business provides full years
work. 1t is even more important and
difficult to provide full years work
for horses than for men. The first
step is to decide on the rotation to be
used; the next is to lay out the fields
to fit it.
This work is not like play. 1t re
quires all the thought that farmer
can give it. He must plan for his OWL
conditions and farm. Others may sug
gest, but in the end he must do all the
planning himself. The profits or the
losses on the adopted plan will be his

THANKSGIVING.

The first national Thanksgiving
may be said to have been the one
offered up at St. Pauls cathedral,
London, for the defeat Of the Span
ish armada, September, 1888. The
English settlers in this country nat
urally adopted the custom of their
native land, and at an early period
in our colonial history Thanksgiving
became quite common. The institu-
ton may be said to be the natural
outgrowth of human nature and has
probably existed in some form OF
other from the earliest times.-Ex-

W. E. Simmons, ceased to suffer
and entered into that rest which
remaineth for the children Of
God; therefore be it resolved:
First, That our union has lost

whatever her hands found to do
What higher tribute could We

Mrs. Simmons our community
has lost a good Samaritan who

We DO not recall ever having seen

sinking OF the Lusitania.
It is the apparent mission of this
disgracefuI sheet 30 stir up the Ger
American population against the
President and the policies which have
seen advanced by him and generally
approved by the American people.
The following is a recent editorial
enanation from the "Fatherland":
"Mr Wilson invited Mr.. Mueller,
editor of the Chicago Abend Post to
a conference at the White House We
do rot know what passed between the
two men but anyone who knows the
sturdy Americanism of the editor of
the Abend Post feels certain that the

norance of the estimation In which

LET AMERICANS TAKE
NO CHANCES.

The situation In Mexico may be de-
scribed as very much mixed.
In the meantime. all Mexicans
should be watched closely and Amer
leans should advance in sufficient
force to meet any eventuality.
Replying TO First Chief Carranya's
reciprocal request or demand, the
American government has agreed to
permit Mexican troops to pursue into
American territory any bandits who
cross from the American side of the
border into Mexico, attack Mexican
lives or property, and then take refuge
on American soil.
Whether or not this proposal will
satisfy General Carranxa is to be
doubted. but Washington has advised
General Funston to proceed with his
campaign against villa.
Large forces of Carranza troops are
being modified in Northern Mexico,
but whether to pursue villa or to re-
sist the American movement remains
to BE seen.
As a matter of military precaution,
our forces should guard against sur
prise from all factions. The worth
while class of Mexicans will welcome
the American determination TO put an
end to villa and his crew, but We
would not trust the professional SOL
diery as far as we could sling James
River boulder.
Many of them served under Villa
in his specta cular advance against
but for the low tide in villas granary
and cash box. Carranza doubtless
could have put an end to Villas ca
reer before this but for the half
hearted conduct of his army.
We are trying the best we know
how to serve humanity and Mexico.
No well-disposed Mexican need fear
American bullets. but IL Mexicans de-
termine to protect their bandits they
will ere long know what real night
ia like.

gandists should succeed In JockeyiDg
our country into war. we shall mint the
foe from without, whoever he may
be. but before we go to battle we
shall punish at the polls the rascals
within who brought this mischief upon
us. Meanwhile, In mass-meetings,
petitions and parades, we shall go
to the limit of our constitutional
right to thwart the ingenious pro-
British conspiracy against the lives of

public"
The Fathsrland editor and his sup
porters should be advised that the
threat of casting the German-Ameri-
can vote this way or that will not
swsrve the American President or the
American people one iota from the
plain path of duty. The charge that
the President is placing the wishes
OF Great Britain above the. interests
of the United States lie another Of
those reeking ISLANDERS which have

thizers represent American ideals, may

1t is not possible to continue decep-
ton, particularly being entangled with
that one-quart bottle.
The quotation made by the Journal

what any fair-minded editor might

is what The virginian said;

all of the prohibition statutes and the

enforcement of the law, are the only
matters remaining to be disposed Of
And these will be disposed OF today or
tomorrow Governor Stuart will sign

the shipping bill as soon as he has OPP
portunity to. examine them, and Rev.
j. Sidney Peters the caucus nominee
viii be elected commissioner as soon
as the Mapp bill. in which provision
for the once is made, is approved"
The Legislative program embraced
the enactment OF adequate laws, which
were embodied in three bills, and the
election OF a commissioner. 1t did
not embrace the naming Of Mr.. Peters
or any other person IA the candidate
for commissioner. That selection be-
longed to the General Assembly. and
was made by the Democratic MEM
bers OF that body. The Journal dis
torts the plain meaning of The vir-
Finian's editorial, and, accepting it's
distorted representation of what this

impression that The virginian has dis

the same issue that the people passed
upon in September. 1914 The cause

umphed, and the liquor interests and
