SONS CRAVE IN FRANCE
WILL LEAVE COLUMBIA SUNDAY
AND SAIL FROM NEW YORK
NEXT SATURDAY.
fridays Daily Herald.)

On the sacred mission of visiting
the grave and identifying the body OF
her son, Lieut. James C. Wooten, III,
who was killed in action while engag
ed in an air battle with German planes
on the Chateou Thierry front on Au-
gust l, 1918, Mrs. John T. Wooten
will leave Sunday for New York and
will sail from there the following Sat
urday,
Mrs. Wooten's passport is for four
months and she expects to remain in
France until September. While there
she will engage in Red Cross canteen
work. Her two-years service with
the Red Cross at home and her ceas-
less labors for all war causes have
entitled her to the privilege of service
overseas. She plans to have the re-
mains OF her son placed in steel cas-
ket and inferred in French GENE
terry until such time as the govern
ment will permit their removal to
America Mr.. Wooten probably will
join Mrs Wooten before her return.
Lieut.. Wooten's body is the only one
of an American in the little French
cemetery at Coincy on the main road
between Fere-enTardenois and Cha
teau Thierry, near the point at which
he fell. Since his death both the
French and American citations for
distinguished service have been be-
slowed upon him, that of the French
for his services on July Z, 1918, and
that Of the American for exceptional
valor on July Is, 1918. He was also
promoted to First Lieutenant. The
American citation recently received
by Mrs. Wooten, follows:
"Citation-Second Lieutenant James

STATE LIBRARIAN

DOCUMENTS OF HISTORICAL VAL.

ARCHIVES. =
MICH FOR MAURY COUNTY THERE
John Trotwood Moore viii Take An
Especial Pride. In Setting Aside
Space for Anything Of Value From
This County.

John Trotwood Moore, state libra
1rian and archivist, appeals to the peo
pie OF Maury county to furnish him all
old historical papers or documents
that will be valuable in studying the
early history of the. county. Mr.
Moore announces that he will set
apart a portion of space in the state
archives for Maury county where all
of the documents that are furnished
will be properly placed.
Mr.. Moore is confident that there are
now in the hands of people of this
county many very valuable documents
which would turn food of light on
the early history Of this great coun-
ty, and which in their present state,
may be lost forever. Papers of this
character in private hands are liable
to be lost through fires or because
of the carelessness of those who may
later become their possessors.
Being a Maury countian, Mr.. Moore
will take an especial pride in arrang.
ing, cataloging and preserving any
papers that may bear on the history
of this county. His request is one
that ought to, appeal to the people of
the county who are interested in the
preservation of its history.
One of the. first things that Mr..
Moore did after being appointed as
librarian, was to order The Daily
Herald sent to the library so that it
might be preserved in bound files as
a part of the history of the state.
But he is anxious to get the old docu-
ments before Columbia ever dreamed
of having metropolitan newspaper

ING DELAYED BY FAILURE TO
MAKE DELIVERY.

Although they were ordered some
time ago the tags for the vehicles pro-
vided by the Maury county road law
have not yet arrived. Failure to get
the tags has delayed the payment of
a large amount of taxes as people all
over the county are anxious to settle
for their vehicles However, several
have paid and will receive their tags
when they do arrive. The head tax is
being laid more rapidly than hereto
fore as this Communication tax is gen.
orally not paid until later on in the
year. Just as soon as the vehicle tags
arrive the officials will institute a
vigorous campaign for the collection
of the taxes.

SUBJECT DEBATE
STATESMAN AND PUBlICiST aoo
NOT PRESENT ExHAusTIvE
DISCUSSION.
AIM TO SET PEOPLE THINKING
Automobile cut-Outs Disturbing to
Speakers and Audience-Shaw Had
Better Faculty for Catching APPROX
al OF Hearers.

The pro and con of government own
ership and control of railroads was de-
bated Saturday night at the Chautau-
qua by Hon. Leslie NJ Shaw, former
governor of Iowa and secretary Of the
treasury under President Roosevelt,
opposing government ownership. and
Charles Zueblin, noted publicist, for
merly of Chicago University, uphold.
ing government ownership. The de-
bate was by no means a brilliant or
exhaustive discussion of the subject,
neither of the speakers making a suffi-
GENTLY forceful argument to convince
anyone with convictions to either
side of the question. But as Mr.. Zueb-
lin stated in his concluding remarks,
the Chautauqua debate is not, intended
to win supporters for either side of
the question. 1t Is designed to set
the people to thinking. 1t did that
to limited degree.
Mr.. Shaw, was easily the more enter.
tanning speaker and he put across"
his assertions with greater accuracy
to hit the bulls eye of applause than
did Mr. Zueblin, who delivered his ar.
gument in a pedagogical style that
failed to awaken whatever response
there might have been for his side, of
the subject in the audience.
: 1t was notable fact, however, that
the audience of 600 or 700 people sat
through the two hours of debate with
but little restlessness. Only few
persons seated near the rear departed
before the conclusion of the debate
and practically everyone gave evil
dence of deep concern over the ques-
ton. Noises of automobile cut-outs
near the corner of Garden and West
Seventh were disconcerning to the au-
dience and probably to the speakers.
1t seemed at times that the drivers
of cars were deliberately attempting
to disturb the debate. That, of course,
was not true, but the effect could have
been little less annoying il it had
been deliberate attempt 2-a
