He accepts the benefits of pro lection, security, order Gall of which were obtained by bloody fighting against tyranny and wrong). but he objects to taking any part in maintaining those benefits.
 The c.

Of all these fighting he conscientiously ac- oepts the benefits.

FREAK 0F HERED|TY
 LASTS FUR A YEARS

So far as his work is concerned, we remember a rascally poet named Rich ard Savage for one solitary line-that in which he speaks of the tenth trans hitter of a foolish face" It catchily conveys the notion of heredity and suggests the sort of wonderful family likeness of which one has just been told to the Royal Society of Medicine.
 The first Earl of Shrewsbury. who died in 1453, was born with a physical peculiarty-the little finger and the finger adjoining, on each hand, had only one joint, the first two bones be- ing united. The same abnormality af- fected all the toes except the big ones. Today, in a direcr masculine descend ant of the first earl the same extra ordinary formation persits. It was transmitted to him by his father, and to his father from his grandfather and has come down unchanged through nearly five hundred years, passing through fourteen generations.

This Is the clothes requirement alone. Before the year is out the figures will have to be doubled. Two items pre- scented the most difficult problem ducking for tents and khaki cloth. The country had been pretty well drained of both by the demands of our allies before we entered the war. In fact one war speculator had practically cornered the market on khaki. But scouts, representing the RosenWald committee, and representatives of the quarter masters department have secured the country, peering into every place or mill or supply house where either material could be had in quantities. The sup ply available for government use has increased by leaps and bounds since the mobilization O fresources began.
 But clothing is only one side of equipping an army. Tents upon tents are needed. This is particularly big problem right now as the national guard is to be housed in tents. And tents have to be replaced everythree to six months, on an average. The follow ing table presents the needs of l mill lion men with nine months upkeep:

CLOTHING THE NEW ARMY SO0N

Americas national army of half
 camp before September l. If it does
 by that time it will be because the men
 who are in charge of that heroic task
 have done what never has been done
 fore in the same space of time and un-
 der the same conditions.
 Miracles, almost, are being accomp-
 iished by these men in providing for
 the countless needs of the new army,
 and hundreds of manufacturing plants
 are working night and day turning out the hundreds o farticleS in enormous
 amounts that are necessary to clothe.
 feed and equip the men who are to fight for America and her allies. The item of clothing is an enormous one in itself. Concrete figures give
 some idea of what it takes to clothe and equip an army. Here are the clothing requirements for a million men and the upkeep in clothing for nine months'more, for the army mas to know
 where the next few months supply is
 to be had, as well as the initial equip
 ment.

Sad Death of Miss
Mary Jane Fowler

After weary weeks and months
of intense suffering, Miss Mary
Jane Fowler quietly breathed her
last at her home at Fancy on last
Monday. Miss Fowler was in her
sixty.seventh year. Just before
Christmas she suffered a stroke Of
paralysis, since which time she
had never been well. She and her
sister, Miss Ellen Fowler, lived to.
gether all their lives. They reared
several sets of children for their
deceased sisters, and these chill.
dren loved them both as their own
mother, who could not haYe been
better to them.
Miss Mary Jane was a loyal and
devout member of the Pleasant
Hill Methodist Protestant church.
She was a noble good woman, one
whom the entire community will
miss, and especially the lonely
sisler. Services we're conducted
by Rev. H. E. Jenkins and the re.
mains laid to rest at Pleasant Hill
burying ground.

WILSON ok ARMY PLEA FOR 100000 MEN DEC WAR
Quarterly Court;
FOur-Hour Session

The Weakley county quarterly
court has established a new recorl
for dispensing business in rapid
order. The docket, so Deputy
Clerk Rastus Irvine informs us,
was a very big one, yet the session
was completed in just four hours
after getting down to actual BUSH
ness. The court started out in
high gear and wound up in high
gear.
/. Judge Mayo's quarterly report
shows the county to be entirely
out Of debt, with the sum of about
$500 in treasury. All the $685.
600 borrowed some time ago has
been paid off, and it is suggested
that if justices Of the peace and
others use strict economy the
county will remain clear of debt.
Notaries public were elected as
follows: L, E. Holiday, ]. T.
McWherter, E. D. Thacker, ]. A.
Eskridge and ]. P. Bowlin.
An order was adopted authoriz-
ing the purchase Of a pile driver
for use in constructing bridges in
the county, the following commit
tee being appointed to negotiate
the deal at once: A. F. Higgs, j.
J. L. McAdams, W. L. McCaleb, j.
P. M. Deck.
A committee was appointed TO
sell the engine at the Jail. This is
a good engine and bargain for
some one.
The court refused to authorize
any new levee work in the county,
defering appropriations for this
pu pose until the July term.
The Enterprise congratulates
the court upon its ability to han
die the business and adjourn in a

R. B. Freeman An
nounces for Register

Mr.. R. B. (Bob) Freeman, Of
Martin, places his formal an
nouncemet in this issue OF the
Enterprise as a candidate for the
democratic nomination for register
Of Weakley county.
Mr.. Freeman is too we'll known
to the voters and citizens OF this
county to need any recommended
ton at our hands. He is one of
the best known men in the county,
and is an exceedingly popular
man, as the vote he has received
in the past will attest.
In 1909 he was an unsuccessful
candidate for county Judge, being
defeated by Judge Mayo by 149
votes, in that election Judge Mayo
receiving l 1882 votes, Judge Hill
1000 votes and Freeman 1888
votes. In the primary election
held in 1918 he was a candidate
for register with nine popular men
in the field against him. He was.
defeated twenty-three votes by ].
B. Swain, the present register, who
is not a candidate for reelection.
In that race Mr.. Freeman carried
sixteen out of the tWenty.four
civil districts of the county over
the successful man, and ran him
an exceedingly close race in sever.
al other districts, being defeated by
only twenty-three votes in the
county.
Mr.. Freeman promises, if elect
ed, to serve his constituents to
the very best of his ability. The
Enterprise asks that his claims be
given due CO. sideration.

The Ko7gy y, Issues,
Biz War Special

For the first time in the history
Of Dresden a war special was cir
culated on the streets of Dresden
last Tuesday afternoon, giving the
late news regarding the action of
congress on President Wilson's
special message some fifteen hours
ahead of the daily papers.
This is only a sample of Man
ager McCuan's Enterprise. This
war special was replete with war
nictures, war news obtained at
$50 D. M, and Kozy news of an
interesting character. 1t was a
fnlI.page special and was eagerly
sought after by our citizens, who
literally complimented Mr.. Nc
Guam upon bis originality and his
enterprise. Just such push and
hnstle as this is what has made
the Kozy not only popular place

reached by the Kozy.

Vote Favorable
to the Stock Law

By a decisive vote, the citizens
Of Weakley county on last Satur-
day cast their ballots in favor of a
stock law for Weakley county, the
majority in favor Of the stock law
being between 300 and 500 votes.
Upon the other hand, the vote
against the adoption Of four.wire
fence as the standard in the coun.
ty was overwhelming, the vote
against the proposition being 1885
and 556 for the four.wire fence.
The vote for the stock law was
2143 with 1875 against.
Several of the towns voted
strongly in favor of the stock law,
which is already in force in all the
incorporated towns of the county.
The law goes into effect Jan. 1,
1918, but a petition has been cir
culated, it is understood, asking
the representatives from this
county in the legislature to put
the law into effect within thirty
days. This, however, will not be
done, since the people were pledg-
ed the law would not be effective
until next January.
