WILSON THROWS BOMB INTO CAMP
OF OPPOSITION TO LEAGUE NATIONS
Exact Tax LeDy
Matter of DOubf
Probably is y2.2O

There is good deal of doubt as to
what the exact amount of the tax levy
for this year will be. The county
court Monday adopted the report OF
the tax levy committee fixing the levy
at $2.O5 on the $10O After that the
court authorized an issue of 5000, 900
OF road bonds and passed resolution
in general terms leyying a tax to pay
interest, provide a sinking fund and
a maintenance fund. But the exact
amount of the levy was never fixed
However, it is estimated that it will
require eighteen cents to pay the
interest, retire $4,000 of the bonds
per annum and provide maintenance
fund of $4,000 Others claim the
fund will never be used
and that fifteen cents will be suffl-
cient. 1t is safe to say that the tax
payers of the county will either pay
1920 or 1928 on the 500 next Janu-
ary.

(By United Press.)

WASHINGTON, July President
Wilson's invitation to Republican SEN
ators to confer with him at the White
House on treaty matters was like q
bomb shell in the camp of his oppon-
ents today They frankly admitted
that the President probably will be
able to win some of the wavering Re-
publicans away from the tentative
pledge to vote for the treaty with re-
servations ON the grounds that such
reservations may jeopardize the peace
settlement.
Todays developments in the peace
fight included a speech by Senator
Colt of Rhode Island announcing his
support of the league but leaving his
position on reservations open, intro
duction by Senator Spencer Of Mis-
souri, of a resolution deploring the
shantung settlement and expressing
the hope that the manifest injustice"
will be speedily remedied, and
speech by Senator Sherman Of Illinois
condemning the Shantung transfer az
the "superlative treachery of modern
times"
Without a record vote the senate
today adopted the Borah resolution
asking President Wilson to make
available to the senate correspond
ence from members OF the American
peace delegation protesting against
the Shantung provision of the treaty,
including protests from any officials
attached to the peace delegation. The
resolution specifically asked for 0

But two of the seventeen white per
sons who today are taking the exam
alton for teachers under the uniform
state teachers examination law, are
of the masculine sax, further evi
dence that men in the teaching corps
of the state will soon be as scarce as
the proverbial hens teeth" In ad
dition to the seventeen whites two
negroes are taking the examinations,
which are being conducted by County
Superintendent John P. Graham and
City superintendent Robert L. Har-
ris at the County High School.
The two men In the list are both
we'll known, being DR.. j. NJ. Robson,
of CuAeOka, and Anderson Hardison,
late of the American Expeditionary
Forces Last year DR.. Robinson taught
at Culleoka as a war emergency but
he gave such general satisfaction and
teachers are so scarce that he has
yielded to the pressure to teach
again. He thought he would fortify
himself with certificate. Prof. Har.
Olson has had some experience as a
teacher and is graduate of the
County High School. The other fif.
teen are mostly young girls who are
nv orssn IN
The proportion of women to men
who take these examinations has been
increasing practically ever since the
law was passed in 1913. Comparative
ly few of the public school teachers
of the county are men, a condition
generally ascribed to the low salaries
paid the teachers as compared with
the pay Of other businesses and occu-'
pations.
Teachers are being examined for
both high school and elementary
schools. The examinations will last
for two days.

DRED ACRES. t:t.

Wheat yields in Maury county this
year run from four to thirty bushels
to the acre. Many crops were almost
a complete failure while others were
much above expectations. One OF the
best yields made was that of william
T. Frierson, who on 100 acres averag.
ed twenty-five and half bushels to
the acre. This is not quite equal to
the average Mr.. Frierson made in
1914, the year of the great wheat crop,
but it is far above the average yield
for the county.
Another splendid yield was that OF
Fleming Rankin Sheegog on Fairview
Farm. Mr.. Sheegog is one of the
leading wheat growers of the county
and his crop this year averaged
around twenty-three bushels to the
acre.

ious That Maury County Should Con-

Prof. Clement, supervisor of agri
culture for the state, is in Columbia to-
day for conference with county su
perintendent Graham and City Super.
intendent Harris with reference to the
agricultural department of the County
High School during the coming ses.
sion. Mr.. Clement is in charge of the
Smith-Hughes federal fund for agri-
cultural education in Tennessee and Is
especially anxious that Maury county
should continue to be the beneficiary
OF this fund during the coming term
He believes that differences which, ex-
listed between the county and federal
authorities during the past term can
be adjusted so that the work can be
done harmoniously.
Prof Clement stated this morning
that he had applications from about
fifty of the high schools of the state
for appropriations under the Smith
Hughes fund, that some of the schools,
however, did not meet the standard
required and it was hardly probable
that more than thirty schools in the
state would share In the fund dur
ing the coming session. 1t Is not i'm.
probable that two or three OF the high
schools in Giles county will meet the
requirements of the fund.
II find everywhere in the state"
said Prof. Clement, "a great awaken.
ing of interest in agricultural educa-
ton. The people are coming more
and more to realization of the fact
that agriculture is the chief interest
of Tennessee and that our problem is
to keep the boys ON theafsFHas. To do
this we must educate them to an un-
derstanding and appreciation of the
Importance of the place that agricul-
ture has in the economy of things.
There are going to be more students
next year IN the agricultural classes
of our high schools than ever before,
and ! believe that we are going to
have likewise the largest enrolment
in the agricultural department of the
state university"
Prof. Clement will return to Co
lumbia next week to attend the Mid
die Tennessee Farmers convention.
