Always Should See EN- AL

Assessor, Jack Brady seems to be
the right man in the right place as
he is making a personal call on every
taxpayer to ascertain the amount of
the personal property assessable in
stead Of relying on the more or less
uncertain figures of last years tax roll.
He even called on the Review office
to see if we didn't have a.linotype or
two hid away somewhere. Its a good
way to find out how much property
taxpayer has.

STRUCK BY AUTOMOBILE
Small Boy Runs In Front Of Machine
While Trying to Catch Street Car
and Was Badly Injured.

Harry Moore, aged about IA years,
who resides with the family of Jack
Presley, in Eastland, was rather bad
ly injured last night about 6 o'clock
when run into by an automobile
driven by Mr. Holmes, manager of the
local branch of the Standard Oil Com
pany. The accident occurred on East
Second street, near Union.
The boy was walking along East
Second street when street car stop
ped at Union. At the same time Mr.
Holmes approached In his automobile
and stopped to wait until the car
started again. When the car had
started, Moore ran out to catch
the car and paid no attention to
the approaching automobile. Mr.
Holmes made an effort to stop his
automobile but could not do so quick
ly enough to keep from hitting the
hoy. The fall on the brick pavement
rendered. him unconscious.
Mr.. Holmes carried him into the
residence of DR.. Taulbee, where he
was attended to and soon came to his
senses. Although rather badly bruis-
ed, it was discovered that he was not
seriously injured, and Mr.. Holmes re.
moved him to the Presley home in
! Eastland.

ITALY SINGLE.HANDED Is HOLD.
ING HUNS BACK

Rome, November q - Because of
the disadvantageous battle-ground Of
fered along the Piave River, a fur
ther strategic retirement of Italian
forces may be necessary, according to
reliable information.
Save for some batteries of artil-
lery, none of the French and British
reinforcements have gone into ac-
ton.
The Italian troops, single-handed-
ly, are bearing the full burden of the
Teutonic assault. They are holding
firm and inflicting terrible casualties
on the enemy. Their morale is the
best probably it ever has been.
So also is the spirit here in Rome
The public supports the war as never
before.
All fruits of Italy's two years OF
internal strife have now been swept
away; a dread enemy reaches ever
forward seeking her most treasured
possessions of art and industry.
The enemy won his first blow by
treachery in the army and in the CIV
ilian population; then the sudden
overwhelming spectacle of the per-
fectly equipped Teutonic armies made
the Italian officers lose their heads.
Germany played for revolution in
Italy like that she aided in Russia
She never will attain that hope.

YOU

There will be a meeting Of the Ma
son county woman suffrage league at
the Public Library today at 2:30 p,
m, to elect delegates to the state
convention at Lexington, November
30, December l.
No action can be taken unless a
quorum is present. When the fair

tion of so many your presence is es-
pecially needed to insure a quorum
Ask yourself these questions: "If
New York women had done no more
for suffrage than | have done what
would have been the results Of the re-
cent election in that state?"
"If no Kentucky woman does any
moro than have done or am doing
how long will it be before Kentucky
women get suffrage?"
Drop in at the Library this after
noon long enough to cast your vote
for a delegate.
If you are not in the habit Of at.
tending meetings or never have at
tended the greater reason for attend
ing today.

BER II

At a meeting of the Maysville To-

was decided to open the market here
on December II. This late date was
fixed on account of the smallness of
the crop and also because much of
the tobacco was planted later than
usual this year and it was thought
best to give it chance to cure better.
