MIR. Earl Hawk
Died of Influenza

Mr.. Earl Hawk, proprietor of the
Earl Hawk Shows, which played this
city all last week, died at Hotel
Brumley Saturday night at II o'clock
of Spanish influenza and pneumonia,
so pronounced.
Mr.. Hawk came here from Johnson
City on Sunday afternoon, September
29th, and was suffering from severe
cold at the time. A physician was
called Monday and he was advised
to stay in his room. His condition
grew worse from day to day. Every
thing possible was done for his re-
lief and comfort, but death relieved
him of his sufferings Saturday night.
Mrs. Hawk was with her husband
throughout his sickness, as were also
members of the company. His re-
mains were prepared for shipment
by the Doughty-Stevens Undertaking
company, brief funeral service was
conducted in the parlors of the UNI
dertaking establishment Sunday aft
ernoon, and the remains were shipped
on the evening train to Cincinnati,
accompanied by most all the mem
bers of the theatrical company. At
Mr.. Hawks request, mis- body will be
cremated in that city. His home was
in Philadelphia, where he is said to

Liberty Loan
Drive Now On

A well-atended Liberty Loan mass
meeting was held in the courthouse
at Greeneville at 2:SO o'clock Sun
day afternoon. After invocation by
Rev. Mr.. Ely, the audience stood at
attention while the mothers and sis
tiers of Greene county soldiers in the
service marched in body and occu-
pied seats reserved for them,
The reports were then given from
all rs districts in the county. Two
districts reported lover the top" at
this meeting, namely, the fourth dis
trict and the twenty-fifthf district.
The speaker of the occasion, Mr..
]. /. Finney, of Nashville, assistant
food administrator of Tennessee, was
then introduced by Mr.. C. w. Allen.
The address Of Mr.. Finney was an
excellent one, outlining the duty of
every citizen to share his part of the
responsibilityin backing up the boys
now fighting for our liberties in for
eign battle fields. Mr.. Finney's con-
nection with the state department,
and his broad experience have made
him an able speaker, and his message
to the people was that of practical
business advice.
The reports from the various dis
tricts all showed that the committees
in those districts had organized, and
that active campaigns were already
under way, or would be started at
once. Many reports showed that one
half the quotas allotted had been tax
en-, and the general indications were
that Greene county would be put
lover the top" by its fine corps of
committeeman before the campaign
closes.
Let everyone lend their co-opera-
ton to this great work in which we
are all commonly interested.
