LITTLE TOTS
MADE HAPPY
DELIGHTFUL THANKSGIVING
AFFORDED CHILDREN IN IN
DUSTRIAL HOME
TWO TURKEYS SENT THEM, ONE
Is TO BE KEPT FOR CHRIST
MAS DINNER

Thanksgiving was a delightful day
for the little tots in the Industrial
home. A delicious dinner was pro-
vided for them and all were thankful
for the kindness of friends who re-
membered them on that occasion.
Capt. T. L. Ennis sent the children a
turkey for Thanksgiving, Mr.. w. p.
Hood also sent them one, but as they
could eat only one, the one Mr.. Hood
sent will be kept for the Christmas
dinner, and the children are assured
of anothr feast day.
DIR. ]. S. Jones sent oysters for the
dinner, Mrs. Hunter sent cake, The
home board furnished ice cream,
while members of the Elks fra
ternity sent sandwiches, pickles and
pies. The Wilson avenue circle of
the Presbyterian church sent nice
new quilt to the home as a thank Of
fering to the orphans.
And the little folks also had new
dresses and shoes. The past week
DIR. and Mrs. Ellis took the children
to Singleton's store and fitted them
in dresses and shoes, Mr.. Singleton
letting the children have the articles
at cost, without even the cost of
freight being added to the bill.
All of these things were appreciat-
ed by the children and the matron,
Miss Carpenter, and the home board
Liberal responses have been made

preach. He conducted the funeral
of Mr.. Blankenbeckler' baby.
When Rev. Walker come on this

until people could not get out to
church and Mr.. Walker did not get to
preach much until spring and so he
wanted to come back again and have
full year. The Chapel church was
paying the pastor $4,000 and this
year the church has guaranteed Mr..
Walker 100000. 1t seems that Rev.
Walker is church builder. ...

THE FAT CATTLE
SHOW In DECEMBER
KEEN INTEREST BEING MANI
TESTED BY CATTLE FEEDERS
IN DIFFERENT SECTIONS

The date of Nashville's Third An
nual Fat Cattle Show is fast ap-
preaching, it will be here before you
think about it-whatever you do,
don't overlook the exact date, De-
cember 10th and 18th. And remem-
Der also, exhibitors should make for
NAL entry not later than December
first. If you expect to exhibit cat
tie, write Immediately for entry
blanks, they are free, and there is no
entrance fee charged. Also bear
we'll in mind the big amount of cash
money that will be handed out to the
successful competitors, twenty-five
hundred dollars, say nothing of the
good prices at which the "Show Cat
tie" will be sold.
The cattle will be judged at noon
on Wednesday, December 10th, so
make due allowance for delays in
shipping your cattle, as they should
be here at least a full twenty-four
hours before the show begins.
The sale of the cattle will begin at
1000 o'clock the following morning,
Thursday, December 18th.
Every indication points toward the
fact that this event will be a marked
success, with the advance informa-
tion we have in hand, we know there
will be a liberal number of entries.
All farmers and cattle men who
are interested in the cattle feeding
industry should make it point to
attend this show, and see just what
can be accomplished by the various
methods of feeding employed. A Fat
Cattle Show is an educational instr
tuition, and one that should be well
patronized. Lots of money is being
spent all over the South on breed
improvement, high-priced Herefords,
Shorthorns and Aberdeen Angus cat
tie are being scattered all over the
Southland, and along with this breed
Improvement, it is a recognized fact
that we need some Improvement in
our methods of feeding. 1t is indeed
rare instance when you see car
load of really prime fat cattle in any
one of the five states to which COM
petition is open in our Fat Cattle
Show, and we feel that this event will
provide splendid object lesson to
many of our farmers and feeders.
Come one, come all, and see for your
selves just how good cattle can be
made in this section of the country,
and at the same time see how well
they sell in comparison with the or
dinary run of what our farmers and
feeders call fat cattle.-Secretary.

SPEEDING IS
A NUISANCE
MARSHALL TEFFETELLER SAYS
HE CAN'T GET LINE ON
SPEEDERs AFTER DARK
FINES SHOULD BE IMPOSED ON
PERSONS WHO SPIT UPON THE
SIDE WALKS ..sA

Traffic Cop w. D. Teffeteller says
he is eliminating speeding to GER
tain extent on West Main street dur
ing the day time, but that he can't
get the numbers so easily after dark,
as the lights are poor and that speed
fends still persist in seeing how fast
they can drive over the streets after
night However, Mr.. Teffeteller has
several numbers which he will report
for owners to be cited before the city
recorder. A fine will be imposed on
every one convicted of violating the
speed laws within the city limits.
Fast driving is unsafe both to the
occupants of the speeding car and to
other travellers along the thorough
fares.
Concerning the splitting on the side
walks, nuisance which every decent
person object. There is an ordinance
on the city statute which imposes a
fine on every person who spits on the
sidewalk or throws trash thereon.
This is another one of the city's laws
for which people have no regard, and
which has remained a dead law on
the statute books.
Maryville has several important
laws on her statute books, but so far
as their enforcement is concerned,
none knows they are there unless
they go to the records and find them.
The town would benefit financially by
enforcing her laws and fining violat-
ors.

HOW THE DOUGHBOY
 LIKED "FURRIN" TRAVEL

Your cosmopolitan doughboy who has shaken hands with the King of England, danced with the Princess of Roumania, learned the slang of dozen nations and cooked a knowing eye at all the choicest sights of the Continent, may sound extremely so- phisticated by cable, but wait until he strikes the United States and see what turin travel has done for him! It has made him love, not Europe less, but home more, and he hardly tries to conceal his grand passion under poker face, either. For he has been homesick and weary for months, and the Goddess of Liberty looks like an angel, and New York harbor like Heaven, to his fond eyes.
 As national asset, then, the sol dier is perhaps our best citizen, and because the A. E. F. as whole is rampantly enthusiastic about it's home land and her interests, America may look to her soldiers for real inspira- tion in citizenship. These are the men to put into our business life, as rapid ly as they can be transplanted from army to civil jobs.
 To make the transposition more simple and effective, the War Depart ment through Col. Arthur Woods, as- sistant to the secretary of war, has set up the wheels of giant machine, which is working night and day to cooperate with all employment agen- cies for the sake of the returned sol dier who has no job. But more than that, this great employment system operates for the good of America. Col. Woods and his thousands of assisting committees believe in the doughboy and in his power of real achievement nj the future national life of the United States.
