BIRTHDAY DINNER AND
HOME COMING OCCASION
OF SHERIFF S. R. SATTER-
FIELDS FAMILY

Sunday June the 9th. 1919, be-
ing the birthday of S. r. SatterA
field, was celebrated by a birth
day fish dinner, and a home COM
ing of his family and other frienes
at his Residence near Williams
Spring on the X. c. G. & l.. Rail-
way in the Fifth District of Grain
ger County, Tennessee, all of the
Sheriff's family being present,
consisting of his mother, STEP
father, his wife. six brothers and
five sisters, except one sister be-
ing absent on a account illness.
The intention was to have all
members of the County Court and
all the Sheriff's Deputies present
on this occasion; but owing to the
rain a part of the Court and a
number of his Deputies were alb
sent. Not withstanding the incle-
mency of the weather, the day
was made, by the untiring effort
of the Sheriff and his family, an
enjoyable one, and every effort
was made to give to each one
present a full measure of the plea
sure of the occasion. When the
dinner hour arrived the guests
were given an elegant spread of
fish prepared as only East Ten
nessee cooks can prepare them;
and fish spread was not all, be-
cause the guest table was loaded
with all the delicacies of the sea-
son, and entertained with old time
string music. This was one of the
most enjoyable occasions that most
of those present had had the OPP
portunity of enjoying since their
childhood days, being an old time
good time, and is part of the
life of East Tennessee.
All wish the Sheriff many hap
py birthdays, and trust that Mrs.
Satterfield, who did her full mea-
sure to render her guest every
enjoyment, not withstanding she
is an invalid and can only go in
her wheel chair, received as much
enjoyment from the occasion as
she rendered those present.

This will be good news to the

OF St. Tammany parish generally.
With experience of the past season,
with an over-abundance of rain and
roads that could scarcely be Travelled
at all, the construction of good roads
has been looked forward to with
yearning. Their completion will be
stimulating to business and the own
ers of the many new cars that have
been purchased recently in this sec
tion will have an opportunity OF real

being able to visit all parts of the

THE COVINGTON BALL CLUB HAS
NOT DISBANDED.
Will Be Very Much In Evidence at
Madisonyille This
Sunday.

Some kindhearted CD party cir
culated the report over town that
the big club had disbanded and that
a new club was being formed, COM
posed only Of local players, to take
the place of the present club. Gov
ington now has the greatest ball
team it has had in q number of years
and the merchants and citizens are
freely toward the up
keep of the club and it would be a
big disappointment to all ball fans
and lovers of good clean sport to
let this club collapse, which it surely
would do should it meet competition
of any sort on the days that the club
is scheduled to play at home, which
will be the next three Sundays fol-
lowing this Sunday. Games with the
strongest teams in New Orleans are
being arranged for these dates.
This Sunday CoVington gives Mad
isonville return game on their
grounds and ball fans can look for
ward to a close and fast game. The
game will start promptly at 1870
p, m.

MEAT DELIVERY AGAIN.
Editor st. Tammany Farmer:

Editor St. Tammany Farmer:
| wish to use this opportunity to
express my appreciation for the
agitation of the resumption of meat
deliveries again by the meat markets
in our town. That is the modern
way of doing business, and the peo-
pie want it, so why not have 1t in
Covington as other nearby towns
have. The butchers may have OBJ
iections to it, and doubtless the bak-
ers, dairymen and grocers could OIL
fer objections to the delivery system,
but they do not. AS whole, it Is
much to their advantage to deliver,
and it is much to the advantage OF
the town to have these deliveries,
which advantage causes our town TO
grow instead of dwindling away, and
this growth in turn is an additional
advantage to the merchants OF the
town.
The bfschers would sell more meat
if they delivered. Personally, We
use mostly cured meats from the
groceries becaues they deliver. we
prefer to use mostly fresh meats, but
seldom do because of inconvenience
in getting it. There are many fam
lies in this same situation. | am
sure the butchers would handle more
meat and the grocers less and the
people would be better satisfied il
the butchers delivered. In this way
the butchers would increase theil
business with the same shop force
axnense and the extra profits would
be more thansSnough to pay for the
operation ofsas delivery wagon.
