FOODS TASTE BETTER COOKED
TOBACCO TASTES BETTER
TOASTED

Since the day of the caveman. who
liked his meat raw, civilization has
learned a lot about the scientific treat
ment of the things we eat.
Naturally none of us would now
prefer to have our meat raw, Our po-
tatoes as they come from the ground,
our coffee unroasted.
And naturally follows the great dis
covery recently made by The Ameri-
can Tobacco Co.-that tobacco tastes
better TOASTED!
This wonderful new idea-simple
like all great inventions-was first
used in producing the famous LUCKY
STRIKE Cigarette-made of toasted
Burley tobacco.
Burley has a mellow flavor, entirely
different from the tobacco usually
used for cigarettes. It is pipe to-
bacco and LUCKY STRIKE Cigarettes
taste like pipe.

TRIM YOUR Trees
Or We VIII Be Compelled
To Do So!

Whenever We get the light
plant started there are numer-
Gus short circuits on our lines in
the city caused by limbs of trees
dropping on the wires and rub
bing the insulation off the wires.
This will eventually kill the
tree, and to avoid the short cir
cults, as well as save the trees,
we will begin soon to clear our
lines of such distractions, All
parties who prefer to do so can
cut these small sprigs them
selves, but failing to DO so, we
will presume they wish US to do
it in accordance with the privil-
eges granted us under our fran
chise.

MARION SCHOOLS
open MONDAY
September 9. Few Changes Made
In Teachers In High Or
Graded Schools

/ 1t may seem early to make
announcement at this time about
the opening of our schools. since
the event is yet nearly six weeks
off. A number of reasons make
it advisable and expedient to do
SO now; first. that both parents
and pupils may know definitely
when school opens, in order to
complete their vacation work
and pleasures and make the nee.
essary preparations for the chill.
dren to. start to school on the
first day. For some unexplained
reason many have had the i'm
preston that the schools would
open much earlier than their
usual time. The announcement
of the date at this time will cor.
rect these wrong impressions.
1t is never too early for the
people Of a community to begin
thinking interestedly and def
nitely about their school af. airs.
Your Principal hopes that this
announcement will turn your
minds to your schools with a
keener interest in their welfare.
a quickened enthusiasm for
their progress, development and
efficiency and a stronger deter.
mination to give them a more
loyal support and do all in your
power to make them the best
schools possible.
Again many have thought that
on account of war conditions 1t
would not be possible to secure
a full corps of teachers. From
our knowledge of the ability and
efficiency of the teachers who
have already taught here and
from the recommendations we
have of those we have not had
the opportunity to know, we be.
lieve that your schools have for
the coming session a corp, of
excellent teachers. With one
exception the teachers for the
grades have taught in our
schools before. Miss Nellie Rut-
ter, who will teach the Sixth
Grade, comes to US from Cars.
vile with strong recommends
tions from Principals and 1rus-
tees and the people of her home
community. The teachers and
their grades are as follows:
Miss Ethel Hard, First Grade.
" Lena Woods, Second "
" Ruby Hard. Third
" Ruby Asher, Fourth
" Grace Hill, Fifth
" Nellie Rutter, Sixth Z"
" Mary Lou Wilborn, 7th
" Margaret Moore, 9Th "
With the exception of the
Principal all of the teachers of
the High School will be new.
Mrs. James H. Moore, the
teacher of English and History,
is a graduate of the Paducah
High School and the University
of Kentucky. with special prep.
aration in her subjects. She has
had successful experience in the
high schools at Monticello and
Danville, Ky.
Miss Jane Thompson, who will

and has had seven years sue

DREAM LIFE IN
TAHITI ONLY A DREAM

Papeete. Tahiti, Sept. ll.-(By
Mail. Living conditions in the

Instead of being able to loll under
the shade OF palms and having the
fruits thereof drop into ones mouth
the daily needs only are obtainable
through the medium of hard toll.
Living. if one desires to live accord
ing to the standards OF the white
man, is as expensive as in any other
part OF the world. According to
those who have lived here for some
time, 1T is the last place in the
world for Il man without capital to
come Consular officers have a
regular form warning all inquirers
against attempting to settle here
unless provided with ample funds as
there are>but few opportunities for
