Hale Cotton Gin Burned.

On Thursday, Dec. 20, the big cot
ton gin owned and operated by B. G.
Hale. Sr., in West Hickman. was to-
tally destroyed by fire, which origi-
npted in one of the gin fiues. When
discovered the fire was beyond con-
troll, but the fire department was soon
in the scene and saved about 1000
barrels of corn, which would certain
ly have burned without the aid of
the fire engine. The corn was owned
jointly by Mr.. Hale and Mr.. Dahnke,
of Union City.
The loss of the gin property was
about $500, practically covered by
insurance. Only about six bales of
cotton were burned.
Mr.. Hale informs us that he will
rebuild and put up still larger
and better gin than the old one. 1t
might clso be added that this was
he first gin operated in Hickman,
and is known as the old Dodds gin
Hickman Courier.

Hog Production Rally.

The hog production rally to be
held at the county seat Friday, Jan,
IL, opens an intensive campaign in
which practically every citizen in
the county should participate. For
five or six weeks farmers who are
best equipped to increase pig pro-
duction from their farms will be
active in so doing, and in securing
the cooperation of bankers in the
county and others who may assist.
Let everybody recognize that this
is part of nationwide movement for
the purpose of increasing hog pro-
duction; that Tennessee is expected
to produce $4,000 more hogs this
year than last. This will call for the
use of probably $4,000 more brood
sows than were used last year.
The work of the counties is pri-
imarily to see that breeding animals
do not go to the market for butcher
ing purposes.

jackson Co. Moved.

The jackson Manufacturing Co.,
formerly proprietors of the Toggery,
have moved TO the Cobb building on
the third floor. in what is known as
the old C. B. A. building, where the
machines and equipment have been
installed for the purpose of engaging
exclusively in the manufacture of
ladies garments. This enterprise
had its beginning here in the Tog-
gerry stand, where the Jackson Com
pany conducted a retail store, year
or more ago. The business has in
creased and its success is assured.
Unless unknown causes interfere, it
is simply a matter of expansion and
growth. A battery of machines are
now utilized by number of oper-
atives, and Mr. Jackson is in personal
charge as manager. This is one of
Union City's new Industries, among
a number of others, which are likely
to revolutionize our status of trade.
In addition to the old position of a
retail trade center Union City is des-
tined to become more of a manufac-
turing town, with much greater pos
-sibilities and reputation.

Mr. Mark Forester, the real estate
agent, pulled off big deal last week,
when he found a purchaser for the
]. r. (Pud) Cheatham farm. Mr..
cheatham had listed with Mr.. For
ester. but not long until two of our
capitalists, Messrs. Billy Mailing and
Chas. Keiser, were induced to see the
good points in the deal and they at
once entered into negotiations for a
conveyance. The farm embraces 700
acres and splendid improvements in
the vicinity OF Gibbs, one Of the
largest and best in the county, and
Mr.. Cheatham's price. $4,000. was
accepted. Mr.. Forester has been very
successful lately with his business,
having engineered several big farm
deals In the country near Union City.
He is ready for another good one.

the accompaniment of sacred music
flied slowly forward and grouped
themselves in a mass of prismatic
hues which stood out in bold relief
against the somber hanging of the
stage
The first tableau was a patriotic
one. The curtains we're drawn back
in true Elizabethan style by two
white-robed figures, and Columbia
appeared in gorgeous costume of
Stars and Stripes, surrounded by a
beyy of pretty girls wearing gowns
fashioned from the union jack" the
"tri=color" and other flags of the
allies.
The tablcaux that followed in quick
succession were marvels of artistic
beauty. The deep blue atmosphere of
the far east was reflected against the
white and yellow sand and the mas
siye crumbling boulders of Judea.
Angels from on high, shepherds
watching their fiocks by night, the
Wise Men seeking the Young Child,
Herod and his myrmidons and the
dancing girls of his court and the
Archangel Gabriel were all there
The Madonna and the Young Child
Jesus were exquisitely impersonated,
the part of the Virgin Mary being
taken by one of the best known of
the younger club women of the city.
A figure clad entirely in white was
easily recognized as the Rev. w. w.
Memmingcr, az with true dramatic
effect he intoned the musical lines
which gave the cue to each scene.
Reverence marked the whole enter
tainment from the opening scene in
the Garden of Eden, when Adam and
Eve were expelled from their earthly
paradise, to the closing ono, in which
the whole caste united in singing,
"Oh, little town of Bethlehem, how
still we see thee lie.'
1t was announced Saturday after
noon by Captain Carl Mckinney, of
division headquarters at Camp Cor
don, that tho New Years day pre-
sentation of ''The Vision" at the big
will be the dedicatory
peri rmance of the new Liberty
theater, which has jurt been COM
pleted at the camp.
"The Vision" will be produced at
$3.50 and again at $3.50 on New
Years day, with exactly the same
cast, costumes and special scenery
used at the auditorium, in order that
the selectmen at the cantonment may
lack no opportunity to witness the
wonderful pageant.

FOR ALDERMEN.
Registrants Should Not Pay Fees.

All registrants are notified that
they should not pay fees for any
service in connection with answer
ing their QUESTIONABLE. Fees to
notaries and magistrates are wholly
unnecessary.
The Legal Advisory Boards will
aid you and take all necessary aft
davits without charge. The State
Legal Advisory Board has recently
learned that some justices of the
peace and notaries in various parts
of the State are charging registrants
for aiding them or taking the afii-
davits required by the QUESTIONABLE.
In a few instances lawyers have
charged fees for similar service. No
one performing this service should
charge for ii and drastic steps will
be taken against those who have
done so. We have requested Gov
ernor Rye not to commission any
notary public elected at the January
term of courts who has charged reg
istrants, nor unless he agrees not to
charge them. All lawyers who have
charged for aiding or swearing reg
istrants or for making affidavits are
advised to Immediately return the
fees SO charged.

Many Questionnaires filled by reg
