SEVERAL THOUSAND DOLLARS
SUBSCRIBED FOR new CHURCH

At the mass meeting Of the member
ship of the First Christian church,
held Sunday afternoon for the pur-
pose of discussing ways and means of
erecting new church building, several
subscriptions ranging from $500 to 81
900 each were voluntarily made. The
meeting was one of great earnestness,
and considerable enthusiasm among
the younger members of the congre-
cation. 1t was unanimously agreed by
all that it would either be necessary
to erect new church, or to make a
considerable addition of room to the
present building, but the general SEN
timent was toward the building of
new church. The architect has not
yet completed the plans, and for this,
reason the design of the building could
not be adopted. The proposed new
building will contain ample and con-
venient space for the large, and ever

The auditorium and gallery in the
new building would have a.
seating capacity of 1000, which it is

Daniel Cupid
Makes Another
Great Record

Daniel Cupid is still doing an I'M
precedented business in Maury coun-
ty. During the past month there were
more than twice as many marriages
in the county than there were in
November 1918. Forty-five couples
found the bliss supreme during the
past thirty days via the matrimonial
route, while in the month that Ger
many formally bowed the knee and
acknowledged that the poorly train
ed troops of America were more than
a match fer her mechanically trained
veterans, there were just twenty-five
marriages.
October and November have been,
by comparison the best months that
the little love God ever had in the
Dimple. In October he astounded the
natives by uniting no less than fifty
eight couples as compared with nine
teen in the same month of the pre-
vious year. On Nov. / there had al.
ready been an increase in the num-
Der of marriages as compared with
last year. November adds an addi-
ton of twenty-three.

A conference between the elders or

which committees will be appointed
before the next meeting is held to
further discuss the plans. Il =
1t is felt, however, by those taking

it will be merely a matter of

creased compensation for enumera-
tors. The pay per capita in incorpor-
ated towns has<been increased from
two cents per inhabitant to three
cents. Farms have been increased
from 20 to % cents. Outside of the
incorporation, the rate per capita has
been INCREASED from 20 to 271a cents
per farm. This is an increase of APP
proximately twenty-five per cent over
the increase previously published
