DON'T KNOW TRUE LOVE

Cupid sparks, owing to his position
as marriage license dispenser, gets
numberless invitations to weddings,
and once in while he goes, says the
Los Angeles Times. Once it was on
ranch a little way out from Los
Angeles. While waiting for the min
lister, the near-bride and groom sat
on a couch, and she resting her head
on his shoulder. The girls brother
was something of wag, and think
ing to stir up a bit of fun, asked; 4;
"Have you a headache, Sis?" On get
ting no answer, he pressed the ques-
tion, adding: "Ef you have, | can
give you some tablets that'll fix you
up in a jiffy." The bride rolled her
eyes around until they focused on
the would-be wit, and snapped out:
Headache, you fool; if you don't
know the difference between true
love an headache, you'd better go
out an pick grass with the geesep'

OIdH.C: Seems Stronger Than Government
President and Senator johnson Hot Fight Instead Argument
School for Children
Dependent Parents

Superintendent Pierce has just Sc
cured through the aid of the Federal
government, operating under the
Smith Hughes Act, sufficient help to
make it possible to establish in the
Greeneville schools department for
the instruction of those children who
are at present employed and whose
parents arc unable, through sickness
or other misfortune, to live without
their help. Such children will be in
room to themselves under the care
of a special teacher, who will give
them such help as their limited op-
most need. The children will attend
school half the day and work the
other half.
This department is only for those
who are at present employed and
whose parents, through sickness or
other misfortune, are absolutely un-
able to make living without the help
of such employed children. All other
children between the ages of 7 and
II must attend school all the time.
The law is strict, and the state re-
quires that it must be enforced.
AS the department is established
uner an Act of the Federal govern
ment, every case will be strictly in
vestigated, and parents should be
sure that they have a genuine cause
before asking for relief under this
Act.
This department will open in a
room of the Greeneville High School
building next Monday week, Sept. %,
and all homes affected should take
notice.
Respectfully,
A. c. DUGGINS, Supt.

"Own a Home"
Campaign

In connection with the Gown a
Home" campaign in Tennessee un-
der the auspices of the Tennessee
Manufacturers Association, stress will
be laid upon the Government Savings
Stamps as the medium for systematic
saving for the person who desires to
buy home.
Through Charles c. Gilbert, secre-
tary of the Association, arrangements
have been made by the Women's de-
partment of the War Loan Organiza-
ton for DR.. Gus W. Dyer, professor
of political economy, Vanderbilt Uni
versity, to incorporate this idea in a
series of lectures he will deliver dur
ing the campaign. DR.. Dyer begins
his tour at Morristown and already
has thirty towns on his itinerary. He
expects to advocate the purchase of
thrift and savings stamps and Treas
ury Savings Certificates and suggest
that these securities be urged in max
ing payments o nhomes.
This plan is expected to give i'm
petus to the thrift movement in Ten
nessee. The government advocates
the purchase of stamps as means
of savings for some definite object
a home-or something really worth
while, at the same time discouraging
wild spending for useless things.

FIGHT TO DEATH
Washington Man and Wife Principals
in Tragedy; Three Children
Orphaned.

| Another murder and probably a sui
lcide has been added to the list Of
Irrimes which has startled Washing.
ton during the last three weeks.
Harry S. Blaine, 90 years of age
employed as a butcher and living at
l12O Fourth street southeast, and his
wife, Ida Blaine, % years of age, liv-
ing apart from him at Ala NJ street
southeast are dead, the wife stabbed
to death with butcher knife in the
| hands of her husband. and the huS-
band killed with the same weapon
either by his wife in self-defense or
by his own hands. Three children are
orphaned.
The tragedy happened last night al
6 o'clock at Mrs. Blaine's home on NJ
street. No one saw it. Their three
children, now orphans, luckily were
next door with a neighbor when the
killing took place.
Blaine was angered at his wife be-
cause she would not come back to live
with him. The couple had been sepa-
rated many times, the last separation
taking place on December 16. A weei;
ago Mrs. Blaine went to the Fifth
precinct station and complained of the
frequent visits of her husband and
his repeated efforts to get her to come
back to him.
The police could do nothing, it
seems but to advise her to get war
rant. This she did not do. Blaine kept
after her, the police claim, but his
efforts were fruitless.
Last night he decided to either be-
come reconciled to his wife or kill
her. Such is the deductions made by
neighbors and the police who knew
the couple intimately.
