| Washington, Oct 24.-Dispatches
from abroad tonight reciting the unan-
Unity with which the presidents mes
sage has been approved, confirm the
belief here that the allies and the
United States are IN complete accord
gotiations.
| This belief is further substantiated
by the report that the president. be-
/ fore completion and dispatch of his
message to Germany, was in commu-
nication with the heads of the differ
ent allied governments and that an
agreement was reached with regard
| TO the terms on which the war will
be snded. While matters now are at
"a stage where details are lacking, the
basis of the peace terms is found in
| the PRESIDENT fourteen principles.
and also in subsequent addresses made
by him on the subject of peace.
1t is agreed here that there may be
further communications between the
president and the premiers OF the al
lied nations before any decisive step
lis taken inasmuch as the matter is
one OF such tremendous importance
and one wherein the first evidence OF
lack of accord would supply Germany
with verbal ammunition for another
peace offensive, based on the asser-
on any set plan.

". K. Tinsley Dies After
Brief Illness.

W. K. Tinsley, one of the lead
ing farmers and citizen of Jack
son county. died at his home ir
Tinsley's Bottom, Wednesday,
Feb. 6. at "A. m. He was strick
en- with paralysis last Saturday,
while out looking after some corn,
He reached the home of Am
Hamliton's, a neighbor, before
realizing his condition. From
there he was taken home, and
gradually grew worse until the
end came. He was conscious un-
til the end, and meet death like
a Christian.
Mr.. Tinsley was sixty.three
years old and had taken his ia
theirs farm and place in the COM
munity. He had united with the
church early in life, but the con-
gregation and school at old Phil
omath had gone down, he was
not actively engaged in christian
service until about four years
ago, when he was restored to
fellowship and began to be a
strong factor in rebuilding the
interests in church and school.
His father before him. Elder
Amos Tinsley, had been great
friend to education and religion.
and it is the joy of the family
that his last years were to be
spent so much like his father be-
fore him.
His never firing. wonderfully
unselfsh wife was Miss Ada An
derson. who has many relatives
in Gainesboro and the county,
and numbers her friends by the
number of those who have ever
met her. They had no children
of their own but always had a
large family to rear, which they
did truly according to the bible,
in the nurture and admonition
of the Lord.
His cousin, ThaddeusS. Tinsley

Parent Teachers Association
Held Interesting Meetinsl

The first meeting of the Par
ent Teachers Association for the
year 1918 met at the county high
school building Tuesday after
noon, Feb 5th.
After the opening remarks by
the Pres, Mrs. F. L. Tardy, the
following school officials address
ed the association: Supt. w. L.
Dixon; Mayor. D. B, Johnson: R.
S. Dundey, member Of County
High school Board; B. L. Quar-
les, member of City school Board
Profs. W. 7, Garrett and j. c..
Tinsley, teachers in the High
School.
The principle topic for discus
sion was the school attendance
law, Supt. Dixon and Mayor
johnson explaining the law in
full, and what legal steps should
be followed where pupils of GER
tain age did not attend their al
lotted number of days.
1t is to be hoped that none will
be forced to send their children
to school, for with the advantage
to attend nine months of school,
it should be of vital interest to
parents to see that their children
attend as much of that time as
possible Also to see that your
child is there on time when
school opens, morning and after
noon. A pupil being late oft time
misses his lesson, which, if con-
tinued during the term, many
times has to remain in the same
grade another term on account
of deficiency in one study.
The purpose or the association
is to aid the teachers and school
officials in every way possible to
promote the interest of the
school. If you will visit the
school you will find many things
the association has furnished the
school, and are going to do more.
But our funds are low, and all
members are behind with their
dues. All members are urged to
pay their dues by next meeting.
so that all outstanding accounts
may be settled. and start this
years work to do more and bet
ter things.
We are very glad to have two
new members added to our list.
Mr.. Johnson and Mr.. Dudney.
New members are solicited. and
a hearty welcome is extended to
all interested parents and friends
to visit these meetings.
