TINE MANSIONS

(By Martha Haskell Clark
Dear God, l seek no jewel-fretted
towers,
No streets of gold, no pearl en-
blazoned gate,
When once | wake to greet those
Othr Hours
That past this highways portals lie
in wait.
But thou, who bound our hearts so
close to earth,
Wilt read them still, and SO, secure,
/ know
There waits me there within that
newer birth
The home l lost so many years ago.
The lilac -boughs will brush against
the pane
In May stirred fragrance, dear and
memory sweet;
Forgotten echoes waken once again,
And through the silent halls fa-
miliar feet.
Pass to and fro beneath the taper
shine;
My mothers face will smile with
tender eyes;
My fathers hand, warm-clasping,
welcome mine
AS once again we gather earthly
wise.
But then. ah, then shall no hidden
fears,
No dread of parting, gathered each
to each;
No trust misplaced, no poisoned
doubts or tears
But only love beyond the need of
speech.
And I, dear God. like some far wan
dered child,
The journey DER, too weary more
to roam,
May fall to sleep secure within thy
love,
And waking. know myself once
more at Home.

RAILWAYS MUST RUSH
BOX CARS TO SOUTH

New York, Dec. 5.-To afford quick
relief to the railroads which are suf-
shortag the American Railway AS
sociation undertook yesterday to
force a large number of box cars
from other sections of the country
to the South and West Announce
ment was made hre that instructions
had been issued to virtually all rail-
roads by the Conference Committee
on Car Efficiency of the association
directing them to turn over to their
Southern and Western connections
NOR box cars than were received in
return. This applies to both loaded
and empty cars.
Under thees directions, it was an
nounced, New England railroads
which have on their lines more cars
than they own must turn over to
their Southern and Western connec-
tions 80 per cent more cars than they
receive from those lines.
Railroads of the Trunk Line and
Central Freight territory and lines
of the Central West, regardless of the
number of. cars on their lines, were
instructed to send West and South
20 per cent. more cars than they re-
ceive in return. Southrn and Western
roads were requird to give to their
Southern and Western connections
ten per cent. more cars than they re-
ceive.
Western railroads were directed by
the committee to discourage sending
to the Atlantic Seaboard and New
England freight which apparently
cannot be unloaded and disposed of
on it's arrival. Eastern roads were
urged to refuse to accept such
freight from other lines or from ship
pers on their own lines.
All railroads were directed to send
to the Conference Committee on Car
Efficiency at Washington weekly re-
ports showing the number of cars
received or delivered to other roads
so as to indicate the direction in
which the cars were moved.
In announcing this action the COM
mittee stated that it was expected
to force large numbr OF box cars
to tn West, Northwest, South and
Southwest, where there is urgent
need of them

SUNDAY. DECEMBER 10. Is
ARMY DAY IN TENNESSEE

In considering the subject of pre-
parcdness OF troops in the field
about which we hear so much in
these times. it occurs to me that nc
rplan or method of equipment is com
plte that does not take into account
and consideration The conservation
and direction of the morals of the in
diyidua men. What ever may have
been the conditions ir other ages of
the world, these modern TINS find
our solder boys engaged in a con-
tinuous warfare with the enemis of
the higher and nobler impulses of
human nature, and it behooves the
State to furnish equipment and rem
der adequate protection, if possiblee,
against these msidious foes to good
character.
am constrained to the view that
the service rcnderd by the Young
Mems Christian Association. by rca-
9on Of it's splendid organization. its
efficiency and promptuess, is doing as
much, or more, than any other moral
agency among American troops in an
effort to protect, build and preserve
personal integrity and uprightness in
III thoughts and lives of our boys.
This being a voluntary organization
It is dependent upon contributions
made in the same way. In view,
therefore, of the importanc of the
work done on the border and the
need of assistance at this time to
carry on this important work, now,
therefore. |. Tom c. Rye. Governor,
do hereby designate and set apart
Sunday. December 10. as Army Day
N Tennessee, upon which the Chris
tian pople Of our Commonwealth
may put forth a united effort under
ohe officers of the State Y. NJ. c. A.,
10 raise a portion of the amount need
/ for tn continuation of this superb
Christian influence among our boys
IN the border, and. to the accom-
olishment of this end. | trust that
he response to the appeals made on
hat day from the pulpits and other
rligious gatherings, wherever assem-
)led throughout the State, may be
prompt and generous, and that col
lections may be taken at all places |
where prople gather for religious
worship on that day for the specific
purpose herein set forth.
In testimony whereof, l have here
INTO set my hand and caused the
treat Seal of State to be affixed at |
he Department in Nashville on this |
irst day of December One Thousand |
Vine Hundred and Sixteen, and of |
he American Independence. the One
hundred and Forty First year.

COST Of LIVING
BEFORE CONG.
PRESIDENT MAY DELIVER SPE-
CIAL MESSAGE on SUBJECT
Il BILLS ARE INTRODUCED
ONE WOULD PUT EMBARGO ON
FOODSTUFFS TO EUROPE, REG
LATE COLD STORAGE AND RE
DUCE PARCEL POST RATES.

Washington, Dec. 5.-The high
cost of living and what steps the fed
eral government can take to control
it assumed proportions as a national
question which overshadows all other
issues with the convening of con
gress.
The possibility that President Will
son will deal with the subject in a
special address grew stronger, al
though it was thought probable that
he would select a SEPARATE occasion
for it, rather than to add it as a sup
plement to his general address.
Eleven bills and resolutions, seek
ing to check the soaring prices of
food by stopping shipments to Europe
reducing parcel post values on food
stuffs or controlling cold storage
were introduced in the house.
President Gompers and commit
tee of the American Federation of
Labor called to see President Wilson
an daskd him to apopint a special
commission to investigate the food
question, The President assured them
that the government would take
some steps to meet the situation. He
is understood to prefer not to appoint
a commission. as it practically would
be without authority to compel tes-
timony; while it is realized that a
investigator probably
would mean a protracted delay.
Reports gathered by the Depart
ment of Agriculture are being laid
before the President and upon them
he is expected to base any action
which undoubtedly will be prefaced
by a special address to Congress.

k!NCSPORT FORGING
TO THE FRONT
(The Kingsport Tines)

Kingsport is growing day by day.
: On every hand is stamped the word
Improvement. Blessed are the men
OF public spirit-the men who are
putting their shoulder to the wheel
and are helping draw the load along.
| In building a city we find that it is
done on the same principle as the
carpenter or contractor who takes
contracts to build a house-the con-
tractor who builds a house employs
tmen, some of the men take great in
terest in the work and labor un-
casingly till the job is completed,
while others watch the hands of the
cock and care only for the money
they are to get, but do not earn. So
it is in building Kingsport. We
have one firm. the Kingsport I'M
proycment Corporation, who, like the
good laborers, are working every
day. This firm, whose head is Mr..
j. Fred oJhnson, is spending both
time and money freely, and are al
ways ready to donate to any cause
or any enterprise that tends toward
the upbuilding of Kingsport. Look
at the great industries which employ
hundreds Of laborers. These same
industris were first interested by the
men who are building Kingsport.
We are glad that Kingsport is so for
tunate in having men who are public
spirited and who look after the well
fare of the entire city.
The real estate firm or individual
who comes to Kingsport and hopes
to get by without advertising, with
out donating to public improvements,
churches, schools, etc, is like the
hireling who watches the hands of
the clock for the time to go by, and
this same firm, corporation or indi-
vidual is only trying to garner that
which he hath not sown," and does
not deserve the support of the good |
people of the town.

PROGRAM To Be
COMPLETED.
QUESTION OF EMBARGO ALSO
WILL BE CONSIDERED
.SUFFRAGISTS RENEW FIGHT
FIRST DAY OF SESSION TAKEN UP
WITH ROUTINE MATTERS, con-
GRATULATIONS. ETC.

Washington, Dec. 5.--Congress re-
assemblies today with three months
remaining in which to complete the
legislative plans of the first admins
tration of President Wilson.
! With prospect of a much reduced
majority in the new house, or possi-
| bly, line up so close that democratic
control will be in doubt, administra-
ton leaders have laid their plans to
work at high speed in the hope of en-
acting the most important part of
their program before it is endan-
gered in the siXty-fifth congress.
Foremost is completion of Presi-
dent Wilson's railroad legislation
program left unfinished at the last
session with the passage of the
Adamson law. The remainder of the
program, which the president will
press, includes supplementary legis-
latiOn to prevent such nationwide
railway strike as was threatened last
summer, or in fact a lockout, until
The situation has been investigated.
Second in importance to the rail
way situation comes the agitation for
| restriction of shipments of food
itulfs to Europe. Thousands of petit
ions asking for an embargo have
been received by members of con-
gress and at the White House. In
every case it is argued that the in
creased cost of living in the United
States demands a restriction of ship
ments abroad. So far as has been
disclosed President Wilson and mem
bers Of the cabinet have no plans for
acting on the subject, but it is known
that various members of congress
intend to push the subject and 1t may
develop fight. Chairman Fitzgerald
Of the Appropriation Committee, al
)f introducing a bill for a food em-
barge.
Women suffargists, renewing their
light for passage of the Susan b.
anthony amendment to the constitu-
ion, have laid all the lines for their
'ampaign, and it is possible that their
demands may be crowded into the
short time congress has to deal with
IN important budget of legislation.
Prohibitionists, no less ardent than
he suffargists, in their demand for a
'ederal amendment, are expected to
)gin thir fight now

HIGH COST OF LIVING HAS BE
COME A NATIONAL UESTION

According to a Washington dis
)atch printed yesterday, the high
,ost of living and what steps the
ederal government can take TO con-
.rol it, has assumed proportions as a
rational question that overshadows
I'll other issues with the convening
)f congress.
A number of bills and resolutions
were introduced seeking to check the
Using prices of food by various
)lans, including that of stopping
shipments to Europe. Without COM
menting upon the merits or demerits
IF any plan proposed, it Is easy to
see that in any event, whatever may
)e DONE will under difficulties.
In the consideration of tn whole
natter there are wheels within
yhels, and it will be difficult. if not
impossible, to satisfactorily solve the
problem through legislation. The in
crease in the cost of lvng calls for
increase in the wages paid labor and
he increase of small salaries paid
70 men and women and that increase
llso adds something to the increase
Of cost in production and distribution
If food; for illustration. if the rail
roads are to pay higher wages that
means an increase in the cost of
ransporetation.
It can be seen at a glance, in any
event, that increase begets increase
md for that reason the cost of living
cannot be regulated by legislation un-
les the law making power also un-
dertakes the business of regulating
wages and other costs.
So it is that in whatever is done to
check the high cost of living it must
be done through the efforts of pro
ducers and the distributors must
stand between the producers and the
consumers. Employers must under
stand that employees shall have suf-
iieient compensation upon which to

A LABOR READJUSTMENT

A movement has begun in New
York city, the result of which may
lead to the practice to employ old
men to do the work that has hereto
foer been done by boys. The head of
large printing establishment in New
York found it. so difficult to hire of
fee and errand boys, that he expert
mented with elderly men for work in
and about the office that had been
done by boys.
In doing this the publisher was
profitng by the experience of the
telegraph companies who were forced
to this course ythe child labor laws
that have been enacted in the various
states. The publisher advertised for
active elderly men to act as messen-
gers and fifty applications were re
ceived by first mail, nearly all of
which were well and neatly written,
which of itself served as a recon-
mendation of the applicants. The
scarcity of boys to do that kind of
work is accounted for, on the ground
that with increased wages paid to
adults, many parents are now send
ing their boys to high school instead
of sending them out to work after
completing the grammar school
course. The change will doubtless
prove God send to thousands of
elderly men in the larger cities who
have been disqualified solely because
of their age, but who are able to do
light work.-Journal and Tribune.

KINSPORT IN THE VALLEY
OF THE TWO HOLSTONS

Kingsport is ideally located in the
Valley of the two Holstons. The
North and South forks of the Holston
river meet or in other words empty
into each other in West Kingsport,
thus forming the Holston river prop
er. These beautiful valleys, fringed
by hills are rich in resources. Ma
ture has provided with a lavish hand
for the Kingsport section. No region
on earth is blessed with more natural
products SO important to civilized
mankind. Here are rich mineral de
posits of zinc, lead, iron, silver, gold
in races, marble and good building
imesone. Many other minerals
abound and the region though unde-
veloped and unexplored as to the
mineral world is attracting prospec-
tors from all parts of the country.
1t is said that under our feet great
lakes of oil are stored in Natures
storage rooms, and five years hence
will lprobably reveal the greatest
mining and ore district i nthe whole
world.
Kingsport has about twelve large
industries at work every day, besides
all kinds of mercantile establish
ments which have all the world
skinned when it comes to prices. The
trade at home movement is growing,
and the true loyal citizen will not
order goods from another city that
can be bought at home.

LUMBER CENSUS TO INCLUDE
PULPW0GD STATISTICS

Washington, Dec. G-Figures show
ng the amount of wood used in the
United States for making pulp win,
it is announced, be obtained by the
Forest Service in connection with it's
1916 cnsus of the lumber industry.
Because of the increasing scarcity of
.he pulpwood in some parts of the
country, the need for accurate fig
ures showing the consumption of this
class of material is realized by the
manufacturers and foresters alike
and it is expected that such figures
will be made part of the yearly
statistical work of the Forest Ser
vice. The pulp manufacturers will
cooperate in the work, through their
trade organization, the Newsprint
Manufacturers Association.
Detailed information in regard to
the amount and cost of different
kinds of pulpwood consumed in the
different States is to be collected.
Comparative figures showing tn total
pulpwood consumption of the country
for 1899, 1909, 1914 and 1916 are TO
be compiled.
Thed alta to be ATTAINED, WILL ii is
stated be of considerable value to
pulp manufactures, as well as to the
Forest Service. Owing to the com
paratively small number Of pulp
mills in the United States, it is
thought it will be possible to issue a
report on the work at an arly date.
