Correspondence of Associated Press
PARIS, Sept "a Professor of the
Sorbonne recently gained his release
from a German military prison by a re-

fell into the hands of the Germans in
1918. Deciding at once to get free in
some way, he feigned blindness.
From that time it was impossible for
the German military doctors or eve
specialists to catch him off his guard
They subjected him to the saverest
tests, such as sudden presentation of
unfamiliar and unexpected objects. sud

BAD BREATH
Dr.. Edwards Olive Tablets Get
at the Cause and Remove It

DR.. Edwards Olive Tablets, the substi.
tute for calomel, act gently on the bowels
and positively do the work.
People afflicted with bad breath find
quick relief through DR.. Edwards
Olive Tablets. The pleasant, sugar
coated tablets are taken for bad breath
by all who know them.
DR.. Edwards Olive Tablets act gently
but firmly on the bowels and liver,
stimulating them to natural action,
clearing the blood and gently purifying
the entire system. They do that which
dangerous calomel does without any
of the bad after effects.
All the benefits of nasty, siciening.
gripping cathartics are derived from DR..
Edwards Olive Tablets without gripping,
pain or any disagreeable effects.
DR.. F. M. Edwards discovered the
formula after seventeen years Of prac-
tice among patients afflicted with
bowel and liver complaint, with the
attendant bad breath.
DR.. Edwards Olive Tablets are purely
vegetable compound mixed with olive
oil; you will know them by their olive
color. Take one or two every night for
week and note the effect. Toe and CSC

MARIANNE CITY SCHOOLS

The Mariana city schools will
open Monday morning, September 10.
The morning will be spent IN class

given to procure supplies and books
Regular classes will be neld Tues
day. 1t is desirable that all who IN
tend to enter school be on hand the
first day and that things be arranged
with as little loss of time as possible
Attention is called to the new law

weeks of school. Also to the rule Of
the State Board of Health requiring
all pupils to be vaccinated. We wish
to have but two times for entrance TO
the first grade. If you cannot get
your child in during the first two
weeks in this grade. please do not
send him until February.
In regard to text books | wish to
say that according to the new law
passed by the last legislature we
have to change text books in the
Grammar school. We regret this
more than you can possibly regret it
but we have no election in the mat
ter and the penalty is very severe
for not conforming. ] am sure that
the people will understand this and
that there will be no complaining
about the cost of text books If you
have to complain, complain to those
who are responsible. We are not
A liberal exchange pirce is allowed

Pupils in school should go home

need the exercise and diversion and
they should have something warm

reasonable distance to have their
children come home for lunch when
the weather is at all suitable. Lunch
rooms will be kept in the building
and those who bring lunches will be
required to eat their lunches in

your duty to see to the fact that
tendance and that they put sufficient
time on home preparation. In my
opinion pupils below the fourth grade
should not be required to study at
home. In the last four grades Of
Grammar school they should study at
least one hour at home and In the
High school they should study at
least three hours. II
Just a word as to discipline. Ia
tend to secure and maintain a very
strict discipline. School is the great
training camp where boys and girls
are fitted for the battle of life. It IL
no place to trifle. II is my opinion
that every phaze of the work should
be planned so that the pupil should
get amaximum training. Strict ODE
dience and respect for authority must
be given by pupils If they expect to
remain in school. and these will be
had at any cost. Whatever it takes
to secure these things will be used
by the management without delay.
1t will be well for the parents to
talk these matters over with their
children so that things may adjust
themselves at once. | do not wish
to be misunderstood by parents or
pupils. | do not intend to be stern
or severe. | appreciate the philoso-
ply of smile, and | wish to do
everything In my power to make
school attractive. | wish to like all
my pupils and all my patrons. and I
would be glad for our relations to
be most pleasant. | intend to give
everyone a square deal as nearly
as | can see one. This is simply 4
matter of business with me and

sition and let's make this the best

COMMUNITY CLUB EXHIBITS
One of the Striking Features of the
TriState Fair viii BE Found In
Woman's Building.

Visitors to the 1916 Tri-State Fair
carried home some new ideas as to
the possibilities of Community Club
work in rural communities. One cor
ner of the Woman's Building was
given over to exhibits of the work OF
the Shelby County Community clubs,
organized through the Woman's De-
partment of the Memphis Bureau of
Farm Development The exhibits
from these clubs were OF a character
to Immediately attract attention, IN
fact the entire display was something
new and unique in the way of fair
exhibits. and to use a phrase of the
day, Immediately caught on" Dur.
ing the past twelve months the Com
'munity Club work in the Memphis ter
ritory has grown and developed be-
yond the most sanguine expectations.
New clubs have been organized. New
lines of work have been undertaken.
New fields of opportunity have been
discovered. The idea has spread to
such an extent that the biggest fea-
ture OF this years fair, to be held
from Sept. % to 49, will probably be
the Community Club exhibits To
make these exhibits of the greatest
value, demonstrations will be given
each day showing how to carry out
the various club activities.
One whole building will be set aside
for the Tri-State Community Clubs.
organized by the Memphis Bureau Of
Farm Development, while half OF the
larger Woman's Building will be given
over to exhibits from clubs organized
by state agents of home economics in
Tennessee, Arkansas and Mississippi
Particular stress is going to be laid
on homemade labor-saving devices.
and the exhibit of these devices is
sure to prove particularly interesting
