Girls Play First Game.

Hurrah The girl played their first
basket ball game Friday afternoon
right after school closed. The oppo-
nents were the eighth and ninth
grades, and the tenth and eleventh
grades. The opposing sides were well
matched, for at the finish the score
was nothing to nothing. Especially
good was the guarding done by both
sides, which partly accounts for no
goals being rung. The players on the
eighth and ninth grade team were:
Carrie Smith r. f., Lucy Mae Brim
|. f., Hilda Brim r. g., Madge Jones
l. g., Virginia Hollingsworth j. Co.,
Katherine Davis S. C. The tenth and

Arbor Day Program.

l feel sure that every one enjoyed
the delightful program on Arbor day
given by the pupils of the grammar
and high school. We were entertain
ed first by drill, given by the fourth
grade, which showed careful training.
Then came dialogue, which, with the
attractive costumes, was very clever.
The readings were given by several
girls of the grammar school and were
most enjoyable. And last but not
least came our operetta in which were
represented the wood nymphs, flow
ers, trees, mother nature, the fairies
and school children. We were told
several very instructive things about
Arbor day, and every one did his or
her part well. We are indebted to
Misses Willis and Hutchinson for the
pleasure of the program.

his hunger, tells US that it isn't so
bad if the ants are fat. Then they
"sizzle finely" in their own grease.
With many African tribes dog
meat and monkey meat are the finest
of dishes. Dan Crawford, the veteran
missionary, who spent % years in
some of the widest portions of At
RIGA, enduring all manner of hard
ships and eating all sorts of things,
even grass seed cruel, tells us that
he has dined many times on monkey
stew. At other times he ate baked
monkey, fiavoring it with banana
vinegar.
Other tribes raise goats and pigs
and have cattle and well cultivated
patches, where many kinds of vege-
tables are cultivated, and there are
flourishing banana and coconut
groves; so that the people of these
favored sections usually sit down to
a good, appetizing meal when the call
to dinner comes.
Corn, or maize, as it is better
Anown, is raised successfully in many
portions of Africa Nearly all the Gull
tivation of the fields is done by the
women. Only the crudest of nipple
ments are used, yet the yield of some
of the fields is amazing. Strange to
say, corn is little used in Africa for
the making of bread.

Administration leaders, including
Senator Hitchcock, offered this ex-

Hitchcock at the white house yester-

A Splendid Talk.

One of the best talks ever given to
the school boys and girls was that CIV
en- Wednesday at chapel by Mr..
Dukes. His subject was the parable of
the fig tree. He said that this Incl
dent of the Master finding nothing
but leaves on the tree was to him one
of the saddest incidents in the Bible.
He applied the tree to every boy and
girl, telling us that if we did not do
what was expected of US and what we
could do that we could be nothing
but leaves, nothing but an outside
show with nothing on the inside.

 Theirs not to reason why-theirs only to arise early in the morning and an- swer the ad in the last edition of the paper before the other fellow gets there.
 And when they get to their destination they give references and take the house. But the references are not mutual. The seeking family takes the house on faith Not so the landlord; he wants to know something about the checking account of his prospective tenants, how many chi.- dren they have and whether they have good regulations.
 But one of these days when a few more houses have been built, the poor old ten- ant may arise and demand references for the house.
 And why isn't it just as important that we demand references for the house that we expect to make our home as it is that we get references from the former em- ployer of the new maid or the new stem ographer?
 But no, we are an easy-going people. We see a house that pleases us and move in. notwithstanding the fact that we may be settling our family fortunes for term of years.
 No cursory glance about, with the land lord or his agent leading us about Cook tourist, is sufficient to warn us about the plumbing. And we cannot

HUNTSVILLE

Huntsville, August 5-By majority of thirty-two votes the voters of Hunts vile have defeated the proposition to levy a special three-mill tax for school purposes. This leaves the public schools with less money available than is re- quired to operate them and the propcs- iton of providing funds will tax the in- genuity of the city board of education. The vote was very light and the voters did not show the interest in the result that had been expected of them.
 The real estate market in Madison county is still very active in a season that ordinarily sees no activity at all and the prices that are being received for farm lands are higher than ever be- fore asked Transfers last week aggre- gated $S.se7. all of which were small sales.

CHANGE IDEAS ON HIGHWAYS
Manufacturing Public No Longer Re
CARDS Good Roads as Speedways
for Fortunate Neighbors.

The public's conception of "goot
roads" has undergone radical change
in the last two years.
Prior to the entry of the United
States into the world war, the non.
motoring American public, more often
than not, thought good roads were ad.
vocated chiefly for the benefit of their
more fortunate neighbors who owned
and drove their own motor cars
writes e. A. Williams, Jr., president
of large motor truck company. They
were inclined to regard good roads
laws as class legislation and were I'm.
willing for the most part to lend either
financial or moral support to the con-
struction and upkeep Of something
from which they derived no direct
benefits so far as they could see.
The war merely fastened what
leaders Of the industry had foreseen
for several years; it furnished the set
ting and the conditions which enabled
the truck to establish itself as fac
tor in the economic life of the coun-
try.
The non-motoring public no longer
looks upon good roads as "speedways"
for the motoring "aristocracy." It has
come to realize that motor trucks
are essential as transportation factors,
and that good roads are necessary to
the efficient operation of trucks. It's
vision has been broadened; it sees the
advantages and benefits which accrue
from combination Of these factors
benefits which have a direct bearing
upon the economic conditions of the
community.
1t sees the farm brought, one might
say, to the very table Of the consumer ;
it sees an ultimate decrease in food
prices; and, those who pause to con-
slider the matter further, see the ever
expanding range of possibilities of the
truck and its ally good roads.
With the universal recognition and
adoption of the motor truck the pub.
lies conception of how roads should
be built also has undergone change
Heretofore there has been a vast diff.
ference between the average mans
idea of good roads and that of the
experienced engineer. The average
man was content TO build for the pres
emit; the engineer, as a result of past
and not altogether satisfactory exper

Cure for Dysentery

"While was in Ashland, Kansas,
a gentleman overheard me speaking
of Chamberlain's Collie and Diarr-
hoea Remedy" writes William
Whitelaw, of Des Moines, Iowa.
He told me in detail of what it
had done for his family, but more
especially his daughter who was
lying at the point of death with a
violent attack of dysentery, and had
been given up by the family phvisc-
ian. Some of his neighbors advis-
ed him to give Chambrelain's Collie
and Diarrhoea Remedy, which he
did, and fully believes that by do
ing so saved the life of his child
He stated that he had also used
this remedy himself with equally
gratifying results. ADV.
