CASE IN MONTHS
MAN FROM IOWA HAD BOOZE IN
HIS SUITCASE AND WAS AR
RESTED AT STATION.

The first "bone dry" case that kaRs

THIRD. OF MEAL
MAKES FINE FLOUR
HOW ONE PATRIOTIC FAMILY is
CONSERVING MEAL IN
THE COUNTY.

Il do not see why more people dc
not use mixture of corn meal in
their wheat flour, and thereby con
serve flour and at the same tins
make a wholesome and toothsome
bread" said Former Representative
Richard A. Wilkes. of Culleoka this
morning" ''In order to conserve flour
at the request of the food administra-
ton, we began at my house to mix
me fourth of meal with the flour.
We could hardly detect the differ
ence. Then we increased the meal
content TO a third and the bread is
even better. ! am sure that its keep
ing qualities a-e just as good as the
whole wheat flour; in fact this mix.
lure bread is just as good cold as it
is hot. Surely in this mixed bread
the people have a chance to improve
their menu and at the same time do
the country a patriotic service"

smaller than would have been the

It was estimated that more than
2,6ee mules were brought in by the
farmers and owners from Manry and
adjoining counties. High prices pre-
vailed with $500 per head not an uR
usual price. One pair of coming
three-year olds sold for s675 to a Ken
lucky buyer and several other pairs
changed hands for $608.
The demand today was for heavy
well developed mules from three tt
six years old for plantation purposes
but there was considerable trading in
other grades, and a large number O
young mules were sold to farmers
who had disposed of their older stock
The crowd on the streets was NJ

to transact were out of doors. TIL,
mules were here in increased nun

COLUMBIA EXPERIENCES S
FIRST CLOSED SUNDAY
Since SAM JONES DAY
DEALERS GENERALLY WILLING
TO COMPLY WITH ORDER AND
EMPLOYEES ARE PLEASED.
BUT FEW COMPLAINTS HEARD
Chief Of Police McCIain Reports No
Arrests-Closing Order Follows Ac-
ton Taken by Christian Mems
League Week Ago.

Columbia experienced yesterday the
first Sunday closing crusade since the
memorable revival conducted in this
city about fifteen years ago by the
Evangelist Sam Jones. Chief Of PO-
lice Tom McClain issued orders Sat.
urday night that all business houses
in the city close their doors Sunday
and make no sales whatever. The
only exception to this order was res
taurants, hotels, and prescription or.
ders at drug stores. There was NO
opposition To- the closing order On the
part of the dealers and NO arrests
We're made during the day.
This movement for the observance
OF Sunday closing laws was the i'm
mediate result Of action taken by the
Christian Mems League at meeting
On Sunday, December 80, when reso.
lutions calling on the Mayor OF Co
lumbia and Sheriff Of Maury county
te see that these laws are observed
and pledging the moral support of the
organization to the officials.
The state laws are said to be such
that the sheriff is powerless to take
any action without the aid of citi
zens who are willing to act as prose
cutors, consequently no effort was
made to close business houses open
yesterday outside of the city limits
1t was said that some of these places
were open yesterday, but in the city
limits the lid was on tight and there
was no attempt to violate or evade
Z the closing order on the part Of deal
ers. There was some criticism ON the
. streets by persons who missed taei,
daily "coke" and who failed to buy
their Sunday smokes on Saturday
might. So far as The Herald has beer
able to learn nobody suffered any
great inconvenience and there were
no casualties as a result of the clos
ing.
Employees OF drug stores and Other
places that have been kept open or
Sunday habitually in recent years re
joice1 that they were not required t(
work and the employers themselve.
seemedy to be glad that the ordel
had been issued.
Chief of Police McClain acted undel
instructions from Mayor Dedman, WHIT
stated that he is prepared to bring
about complete observance of ths
Sunday laws, even to the extent o
making the order more stringent /
necessary.
Chief McClain stated that he hat
found but little opposition to thu
closing order and that he believed
there would be consistent observ
ance of Sunday in the future. He sait
that the extension of the closing or
der to other activities in under con
sideration, but that nothing has beer
done toward that and would not b'
until later in the week.
