DEATH Of BEAUTIFUL
GIRL BRINGS PROFOUND
GRIEF TO COLUMBIA
MISS MARY JANE TUREMAN Sue
CUMBS TO AN ATTACK OF
HEART TROUBLE.
In Two Years She Won Friendship
And Esteem Of Ali-Was The Only
Child Of Mr.. and Mrs. John r.
Tureman.

1t is seldom that the death of a per-
son who has held no place in the pub
lie eye causes such profound and
widespread grief in a community as
has that of Miss Mary Jane Tureman,
who succumbed this morning at 1920
O'Clock to sudden attack of heart
trouble. Although she had resided in
Columbia only two years, her beautiful
character and remarkable ability for
a girl of II had endeared her to all
with whom she has been associated
and had won for her an esteem that
will never vanish. AS the only child
of her parents, Mr.. and Mrs. John F.
Tureman, she was the idol of their
hearts and the inspiration of their
lives The sympathy of the whole
city of Columbia goes out to them in
this hour of supreme affection.
Mary Jane Tureman was a member
Of the senior class at the High School
and among her class mates she was
a general favorite. The young men
of the class will act this afternoon as
the pall-bearers and many of the other
students will attend the funeral ser
vices at the home in Riverside to pay
!, their last, sad tribute to her memory
The suddenness Of her taking away
but adds to the sadness Of it. She
had been slightly i'll for several days
but it was not thought until last night
that her condition was serious When
the attending physicians realized that
there was no hope for her life, she
was informed that the end was near
and with sweet courage she replied
that she was ready.
At the funeral this afternoon
at five o'clock, group of friends
will sing the favorte song OF
her father, which she often sang
for his comfort and enjoyment
The services will be conducted by
the Rev. Dr. William B. Kicks, pastor
Of the First Methodist church, OF
which she was a devoted member
The remains will be carried at 81
o'clock to Virginia, ILL.,, the old home
Of the family. Cakes & Nichols will
have charge Of the arrangements.
Mr.. and Mrs. Tureman and their
daughter came to Columbia in Febru
ary 1915, after Mr.. Tureman had re
tired from business at Virginia, Ill.
and ahd established themselves here
for their future home.

MAURY FARMERS
Want EXPERIMENT
STATION At ONCE
INSTITUTE GOES ON RECORD AS
UNEQUIVOCALLY FAVORING
LOCATION HERE.
LOCATION NOT QUESTION
Organization Makes Positive Protest
Against DiIatory Action of County
court-special Meeting Was Held
Monday.

Maury county farmers want the
Middle Tennessee Experiment station
located in this county, and they want
it as soon as possible, regardless of
location or the price of the land.
This was the positive position taken
by the Maury County Farmers Insti-
tute at special meeting Monday af-
ternoon in the county court room.
After thorough discussion of the
proposition there was not a dissent
ing voice when motion was made to
put the Farmers Institute on record
as being unequivocally in favor of the
establishment of the experiment sta
ton in Maury county. 1t was said in
the discussion that anyone who thinks
the farmers are opposed to the expert
ment station does not know what the
sentiment of the people is But the
farmers are not interested in any par
ticular location or any political differ
ences that amy divide the court All
they want is the station at a place
that the state committee thinks is
suitable for the purposes of the dem
onstrations and to cost within the
100000 limit of the appropriation for
that purpose.
One member of the institute de-
cared that it would be the greatest
blow to the agricultural interests of
Maury county t'at COLD be given if
the court permits the station to be
lost merely because the members
could not agree on a location. He
said that all the talk about the farm
ers being against the station is I'M
founded, that they do want it and
want it so earnestly that they will not
bubble about the location or the
price.

A Red Cross Appeal.

Inc patrlotlc citizens OF Washing

time have long since been made in
cooperation with the War and Navy

has organized four wartime COM
mittees, one on aid for enlisted men

which Gen. C. A. Devol, U. S. A., is
Chairman; one on civilian relief,
which will give aid to the dependents
of the District National Guardsmen,
OF which c. c. Glover, jr., is chair
man; one on first aid in the field,
which will organize ambulance corps
units, of which DR.. Ryan Devereaux

aid, which will furnish hospital and
other supplies, of which Miss Mabel
Boardman is chairman. These COM
mIttees await only the necessary
money before beginning their active
operations.
