LAND FOR SOLDIERS

The Memphis Chamber of Commerce through it's Farm Developement Bureau is pre- pared to mail questlonnaires to persons having lands for sale to the Government for the purpose of selling same to the soldiers returning from the present war.
 Secretary Lane of the United States Department of the Interior, has recommend ed that the United States supply farms for those of our soldiers who desire them upon their return from the world war. The suggestion has received the endorsement o1 President Wilson and congress, and a survey is now being made for lands available for such purpose throughout th e different states.
 The proposition is one that Will appeal strongly to the people of our country and Will undoubtedly be pushed to a successful termination. Millions of dollars will be in- vested in the enterprise, thousands of acres of idle lands will be brought under cultlvatlon and most desir- able citizenship will be se- eured for the section success 1u1 Tn securing recognition.

MRS. HARRY MATHIS

Last Sunday morning the community was in sad mourn ing for Mrs. Nelle Hutchins Mathis had passed away at 12:30 a. m. Nov. 3Oth. How mysterious are the ways of Providence. A young life in the bloom of youth-life with it's care and joys, was before her, but today she is no more, and the hearts of her loved ones and friends are full of sadness.
 Mrs. Mathis had many friends who loved and ad- mired her, but best of all, children whom she had taught loved her dearly. Her soul was full of music and those who were taught by her, and heard her play have felt the inspiration of her art.
 Mrs. Mathis was taken to Augusta and was buried in the midst of the scenes of her childhood days. A large number of friends gathered around her to pay their last tribute of love, and as her body was placed in the last resting place amidst tokens of love of so many hearts and hands, her soul was com mitted to the Savior whom

in like enterprises many of them in advance of the stens already taken by our coun- try.
 It is proper that such rec ognition be given to our sol diers and sailors because they have made a great patriotic sacrifice, for which they de- serve-and have-the Ma tlon's wholehearted gratitude and respect.
 The Memphis Chamber of Commerce is asking that the owners of land in the whole Memphis territory send lists of bodies of land of any size. naming price, so. that these offers may be submitted to the Labor Department for acceptance.
 The plan of the Interior has been accepted and suffic- tent funds were promptly appropriated to make sur vey of all the available land in the states. This investi- gation is now going on and it is the immediate duty of landowners to make their offers promptly, for it will be too late to plan for these things after the war is over. All landowners in this ter ritory are requested to write for a questionnaire to be filled out, describing these lands they are willing to sell to the Government. When application for the question: naire is made it is requested that the number of acres to be submitted be stated.
 Attention should be called to the fact that this is by far the best opportunity that has ever been offered to develop the country and. to secure splendid class of citizenship.
 Please address all com munications to the Secretary of the Chabmer of Commerce, Memphis, Tenn.

est and most unskilled laborer de-
pending on his daily toll for the ne
cessities and comforts of life to have
the best there is i'm the land. He
may live in a small house but he
eats from q large table filled with
the choicest the world affords.
That many of us may eat less and
fare better in physical comfort as
well as in financial gain cannot be
truthfully disputed. Big eating dees
not promote greater health, but
rather to the contrary. 1t may and
often does bring on serious bodily
ills which might have been avoided
by palmer and more limited diet.
We should learn the simple life,
cutting out extravaganza al d W Wlste-
fulness and in many cases harmful
luxuries. We should eat to live
strong, healthy lives that we may
be able to give the nation the most
efficient service in every hour of
need and thereby gain for ourselves
also those rich blessings that can
come only through good health, a.

There is scarcely a family in all
this broad land of ours whose MEM

diminished earning powers which
could not safely red uce its table ex-
penses and consumption without
lessened physical energy or personal
comfort.
There are many people who have
become so accustomed to certain
kinds and varieties of dishes set be-
fore them that the table would seem
bare and poverty-stricken without
them. In a national crisis which
we are new facing it would be far
more becoming and patriotic to elm
mate all superhuity from our menu
to allow our habits to undergo a
little change and bring ourselves to
learn some practical and efficient
lessons along this line. Prosperity
doesn't consist in much consuming or
wasting but in earning and saving.
