 Immediately after the mayors visit he received a communication from the Palmer com pany stating that the latter would be willing to seno it's partly de cayed produce to some dcpct desig- mated by the mayor for the purpose of having the edible stuff separated for use as may be directed.
 The commission firm evidently had learned of the activity of Mag ney, and had undertaken this me- thod of diverting attention from its ruthless destruction of foodstutfs.
 The fact of the matter is, that prevailing prices of produce on the Michigan St. Commission row have been unreasonable higher than those obtaining in the Twin Cities, in many cases from 50 to 100 per cent greater. One way of main taining these abnormal prices has been to keep stocks down to a mi nimum by destroying the surplus amounts, the manipulation serving to establish the high prices.
 The Michigan street monopoly of commission houses has in the past made it impossible for produ- cers to dispose of their wares direct to the consumers. This monopoly

Tennessee, March 20, 81, 20.
Since the Federal Amendment has
passed the House of Representatives
in Congress on January 10th of this
year, thus bringing to triumphant
close a struggle for real democracy,
covering a period Of almost fifty
years, and since we confidently ex-
pect an early victory in the U. S. Sen

semble our members with the view
of securing the ratification of the
amendment in Tennessee.
To this end we hope to effect an
amalgamation Of suffrage forces along
the accepted political lines SO that
each legislative district will feel the
uHCSb iOoPouoiuiiIy lOi oicCtiuS
representative to the 1919 Legislature
who has pronounced in favor of ratify-
ing our amendment.
We are living in great period, and
can not give greater service to our
country than by striving to make our
fundamental theories of government
reality.
Come, determined to mobilize the
woman power of Tennessee for this
final drive for complete democracy.

DIRE. t. BISHOP MEETING WITH
PERFECT COOPERATION IN
sANITRTiofs4 SURvET.sNNs'

y since the weather has been favor
able for the work much progress has
been made in the rural sanitation i'm
sprovements being made at Spring Hill
and In the vicinity Of that progressive
village under the supervision of DR.. Il.
Il. Bishop specialist of the state
board OF health. Twenty septic tank
pits for closets are ready for the con-
crete work and POI homes and bust
ness houses have been included in the
survey for prospective improvements.
1t is expected that from $50 to 275
sanitary closets will be constructed
before the work is completed.
The cooperation on the part Of the
citizens of Spring Hill has been such
that very rapid progress can be made.
Through this cooperation it has been
possible to buy car load of crushed
rock, car load Of cement and con-
crete mixer to be used in making the
septic pits. This material was pur-
chased practically at cost through
Spring Hill dealers and is being
stored without charges. DR.. Bishop
himself paid for unloading it from the
cars. The mixer was purchased with
state funds in order to save labor.
NJ P. Pope and ]. H. Marshall have
local charge of the work. Both of
these men are experienced in con-
struction work and management and
their services will assure competent
work.
Besides the sanitary closet con-
struction, two school clinics have
been held, one at the public school
and one at the Branham & Hughes
school At each Of these schools
majority of the pupils received the ty-
phoid vaccine, but the clinics were
held during the bad weather Of last

Mrs. w. s. Fleming, Jr., accompan-
led by her husband, General w. s.
Fleming, Jr., went to Theta Sunday
afternoon and organized Red Cross
Auxiliary with a membership Of thir-
ty-five. Up to this time the Theta
community has not been doing as spe-

and the work of Sunday is just an
other evidence that these good people
were just waiting for some one to
take the iniative and start the ball
to rolling.
General Fleming addressed the
large audience that had assembled for
the occasion and after he made his
talk, which was a splendid address
Mrs. Fleming took charge of the
meeting and with a few remarks got
right down to business and within a
short space of time she had thirty
five enthusiastic ladies enrolled in
the Red Cross work.
The organization of the auxiliary
was further perfected by the election
of Mrs. George Barnes. chairman;
Julia Galloway, treasurer. and Mrs.
Fulton Church, treasurer. The auxil-
larry will meet once each week and
will get down to business at once
and no doubt there will be a shIice of
garments coming in from the Theta
auxiliary for the Boys Over There.

NASHVILLE, March Automobile
owners who have failed to take out
their 1918 registration are subject to
arrest by any policeman, deputy
sheriff or constable and after March
l, 1t becomes the duty of the county
court clerk to issue distress warrants
against every owner who is operating
his vehicle without the 1918 number
plates, according to a letter sent out
to all county court clerks from the
state highway department. The let.
ter also states that it is the duty oil
all peace officers to arrest every own
er whose car does not carry the new
number plates. This applies to auto
mobiles, motor trucks and motor
cycles.
The automobile law. chapter 70
public acts of 1917, makes it INSIDE
meanor for the owner of any automo-
bile, motor truck, motorcycle or ve-
hicle of like character to operate or
permit his vehicle to be operated upon
any street. alley or public highway
without first registering it with the
state through the county court clerk
and provides that the registration
must be made on or before January /,
of each year After March /, it be-
comes the duty Of the county court
clerk to issue distress warrants
against any owner who is operating
his vehicle in violation of this law.
This means, according to state Off
Gals, that after today every one oper-
ating a motor driven vehicle without
the 1918 registration number plates
must be arrested or have distress war
rants issued against them. This does
not apply to cars in storage or cars
which have not been taken out since
Jan. l, but they must be registered be-
fore they can be taken out. The fine
is from S. to $50 and the magistrates
assessing the fines must turn all fines
over to the county court clerk who
reports it the same as automobile col
lectipns apd. the fines 90 to the, state
road fund to Be used III the mainten /
ance of state highways, in the county
where collected Officials state that
no magistrate is permitted to remit
the fines on payment of costs with
out permission of the attorney gen
eral
All registrations are now made with
the county court clerk who delivers
the. number plates and collects the
fees, and as it is estimat-
cd that there are fully $4,000 cars in
the state not yet registered for 1918
it is expected that all county court
clerks will have big rush of bust
ness during the next few days. All
cars must be registered in the county
where the owner resides.

State Championship were put in dou-

High School girls defeated the Column
bia girls to tune of 1921. The game
was the fastest that has been played
on the local court in some time. The
locals played very good ball but not
up to the standard. They were over
confident. They visitors were very
good on passing. Miss e. Ellis for the
visitors was easily the star of the
game, she played all around the floor
and was instrumental in piling up the
score. Misses Hilliard and Sims were
the stars of the locals. Miss Sims
threw one Of the prettiest field goals
that has ever been thrown on the
local court. Miss Barber of the To-
calls was taken out in the last half be-
cause of illness. Miss Richardson re-
lieved her but this did not stem the
tide of visitors as they kept on piling
up the score. The locals played till
the final whistle blew in an attempt
to overcome the lead but it was of
no use as the visitors had the locals
goal guarded by one of their best
players. The locals will play the
GAINESVILLE team on their own court
in about 2 weeks.
