1.-THE Ell Paso School for Girls, IA
miliarly known as the Girls
school, has a new home, not a
new buildings. only not a mere hous-
ing. but a home built on and by and
towards ideals. a home that realizes
beautiful dreams Of service for girls
dreams Of making the world better
for and through the girls Of the
world.
From some viewpoints. the build
ing piles itself up in masses that
remind one Of the way old Mt. Frank
lin masses himself UP. SIT. Franklin
incorporates himself in the ideals OF
FL PasO folk more than FL PasO folk
ever realize, and probably he laughs
often in his sleeve at the way his
people hug to themselves a CLEAN OF
inspiration they think they have
caught out OF the blue by their own
idealism, when really II is the great
peak changing with every hour Of the
day and night that has logged their
best selves.
Just so the new home for the up
bringing Of little girls shows the in
fluence of the big peak. The influ-
ence Of our skies is shown in the
many, many cheerful windows. two
stored windows and arched windows
and windows in batteries Of three or
six, the long lines of the house break
ing out in big curves to accommodate
and sunshine and cheerfulness and
blue sky and wide vision and all the
other inspirations that the southwest
holds for its lovers Of life.
At any rate the building IS pri-
marily a singularly well planned
home for a school for girls, and
shows ii in every aspect within and
without. from the beautiful. hospita-

Middle Tennessee experiment station
now being developed at Columbia Will
be one of the features of the conven-
ton.
On the last day of the farmers con-
vention the property OF the Middle

by Maury county and citizens, will be
formally turned over to the state. The
principal speeches will be made by
Judge ]. T. Mcknight Of county court
Of Maury county, rendering the prop
erty, and by Gov. Tom G. Rye, accept

late in the afternoon on the property.
Sugar Rationlng.
Genuine sugar rationing in Tennessee
went into effect on July Is, for after
that date no one can purchase sugar
for manufacturing or retailing or
wholesaIing purposes without permit
from the federal food administration.
In fact the only purchases OF sugar
that can be made are by consumers
who must buy In quantities Of not en-
ceeding two or five pounds. No pa
triotic person will attempt to use more
than three pounds per month.
Farmers can now sell their wheat
and mills may buy at any price and
in any market, but must sell their flour
at a price that is fixed by the govern
ment. The exact price at which flour
will sell in the various sections of Ten
nessee will depend on the freight rate
to the most favorable point But in no
event ought flour to sell at more than
$13 barrel. Mixed mill feed has been
greatly reduced, and any sales to con-
sumers at more than 1913 per ton should
be promptly reported to the federal
food administration. Every official
and loyal citizen is expected to aid the
food administration by promptly r.
porting all cases Of profiteering.
Sugar Bowls Discarded.
It is now unlawful for any boarding
house, restaurant, cafe or hotel, to
have on the table any sugar bowl AN

patrons stipulated ration OF sugar

justment, the farmers OF Tennessee
will receive somewhat more for their
wheat than they obtained under the
old schedule. The price of wheat is
fixed at certain terminal points, the
price the farmer receives being that
price less the cost of transportation
etc.
"There Is no very material change
in the price of flour. but we have not
yet had the time nor opportunity to
work out a schedule of flour and mill
feed prices for all of the counties of
the state. This must be very carefully
done, so that both the miller and the
consumer will receive fair treatment.
At very early date this office expects
to submit to the people OF Tennessee
a statement at which -four and mill
feed should sell in retail quantities In
their several communities. The strik-
ing feature of the new prices is very
substantial reduction in the cost OF
mill feed as compared with the prices
that have obtained during the past
season.

Sugar Regulations.
On July / new sugar regulations 70 I

three pounds of sugar per person per
month went into effect. Retailers can ]
purchase only the amount of sugar
that they have averaged in the past
and can sell only to consumers for or
binary domestic consumption, unless
other purchasers have . written per.
NIT from the food administration. Re
tailers should be careful In their sales
that they equitably distribute amounts

for otherwise many will have to %
without.
