YAGRANT ~

We understand that the present
Legislature at the suggestion Of the
mayors Of the state, will enact
vagrant law that viii apply to all in
corporated towns. in the state. Such
a law is believed to be necessary, It
was found that the work or fight or
der put many to work during the war
period that otherwise would have
loafed about our towns. In the re-
construction period it is believed that
labor will be just as much in demand
and the plan Of this new law is to
force the loafer and those who will
not work under ordinary conditions
to get jobs or pay a penalty.

GET TOGETHER SPIRIT

The Get Together Spirit" is
manifesting itself in Huntingdon
in a way that is commendable and
should be appreciated. Hunting
don is not done as some one has
suggested and to our way Of look
ing at things its future is rather
bright.
This Get Together Spirit" if
carried to its legitimate results,
will bring things to pass that will
show to the world that Huntingdon
is on the map and on there to be
seen and heard from.
We have a good town, a fine
citizenship and most excellent
people and community surround
ing the town. We have, though,
no place for knockers and the
"Get Together Spirit will put
the knockers out of business.
This Get Together Spirit is
not wholly an unselfsh movement.
Ia fact there is no such a thing as
unsellish public spirit. All efforts
and sacrifices for the public welfare
or general good bring reward in
one form or another. The reward
hoped for in this movement is bet
tered conditions for our town and
people and when these are brought
about each participant will have as
a reward. the satisfaction of know
ing that he did something for the
improvement of his own condition
and that Of bis fellow man.
Every one should encourage this
Get Together Spirit" be inspired

Smallpox has reached Carroll
county again. There are several
cases in the county. 1t is said to
be in mild form and it is thought
it will not spread to any great ex-
tent. 1t has developed in several
families in the community Of Treze-
want and also there are a few cases
in the First district. We are, not
advised as to how the disease was
brought into the county. Members
of the families Of 7. L. Neal and
Mrs. C. L. Pinson near Trezevant are
confined with the disease.

FRIDAY. FEBRUARY I. 1919
A COMMERCIAL CLUB

A meeting is TO be held at the
court houee tonight for the purpose
of organizing a commercial club.
At the Golf banquet last Friday
night the initiative was taken for
such an organization by appointing
committees on organization, con-
stitution and bylaws and these
committees are to report tonight.
This is an impurtsnt movement
and every business man and we'll
wisher of the town should be
present and give his hearty CO.
operation to this organization.
A live, wide-a-wake commercial
club is a most valuable asset to
any town, and Huntingdon stands
10 need Of every encouragement
possible at TINS time.
This is a period of reconstruction
and problems are going to come
up in this town as they will in all
other towns and communities that
must be solved, and if our people
are banded together in an organiza-
tion they will be better prepared
to solve those problems to the
interest of the town and COM
munity.
1t will not be the purpose of this
club to do the work of the mayor
and board of aldermen, but to CO.
operate with them and assist them
in taking care of the towns inter-
ests and in developing the material
welfare of the town. 1t will not
be the business of the club to run
the school, but it will be the pur-
pose of the club to CO. operate with
the school in making it larger and
more efficient. The club will not
undertake to run the business of
the town, but it will cooperate
with the business interests and
assist in bringing more business to
the town.
What is everybody's business
is generally nobodys business and
it will be the duty of the club to
look after those things that are
neglected because they donot come
under anyone's special business. |
The club will do many things for
the uplift of the town and every
man should show bis interest by |
becoming member.

IMPORTANT QUESTIONS

The telephone service in Hunting

is showing some signs of improve
ment, we understand. There is room

rates are extremely high and the pat
rons are entitled to good service and
should have it.
