SCHOOLS ARE RE0PENED
IN JACKSON TUESDAY

JACKSON, Tenn, Dec. 80. (Spl)-
Both the city and county schools which
have been suspended for the holidays
since Dec. 10, were reopened this morn
ing. The absences In the city schools
this morning caused by those pupils
who took too much Christmas" or de-
sire to take more by prolonging their
vacation were extremely few, states
Superintendent G. b. ljams. In nearly
every instance the pupils are back at
work preparing for the midterm evan
nations which will be held the latter
part of next week. Promotions for the
successful participants III these examl-
nation and those whose scholastic
standing does not warrant the taking
OF examinations will be given Monday,
| Jam IL.
The parents of the few delinquent
children are urged to reinstate their
pupils in school at once that they might
| be promoted with their classes.
Complete reports from the rural
schools have not yet been received by
W, A. Malone, county superintendent,
| but II Is believed that there practically
was a full attendance at each OF the
| rural schools this morning as the at
! tendance in these schools has been very
Iegular this year, The colored schools
| OF the county, which have been sus-
| pended since the beginning OF the cot
ton picking season, will reopen next

EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE
or PLAGUE FIGHTS

JACKSON, Tenn, Dee. &c. (Spl)-A
meeting of the executive committee and
a number Of the workers in the local
campaign OF the nation wide antituber-
culosis movement was held at the Y.
NJ, c. A, last night, Immediately after
the Rotary club meeting, to decide upon
the adoption OF new measures for fur
therlng the campaign In this county.
Due TO the fact that the members of
the business mems division have been
overwhelmed with rush In trade, In
ventories and other duties incident to
the closing Of the calendar year, diff
ticulty has been experienced In seour-
Ing workers, and consequently the sale
Of health bonds has been seriously han
dicapped. The tag day program on
Christmas eve, under the auspices of
the lady members Of the Maccabees,
WAS also interrupted and the receipts
from the sales were considerably below
the mark expected to be reached,
Reports from all the districts have
not vet been submitted to Chairman
Thomas T., Cade but the total amount
reported to date aggregates approx
mately $1,000 The quota of the county
is $1,000, The executive committee and
| workers who have taken part in the
| campaign have been industriously en- =
gagged, the officials state, and the poor
showing made IN the local campaign Is
| not due TO u lack of effort on the part
Of the small number who have taken an
| active interest In the nation wide move
| ment
A lack OF workers has been the most
| serious handicap In the effort to raise
| Madison county's quota. The officials
believe that the citizens of Jackson and
Madison county will give generous
response to the movement and thereby
secure the antAuhercuosis activities
for this county by the state association

AUT0M0B|LE NEWS
NO AUTO LICENSES
 BEFORE JANUARY

No license number plates for auto mobiles for 1920 will be issued this year before January 1, it was an nounced by Assistant Secretary of State R. E. McGillen.
 Two features of the new automo- bile law are going to hamper the work of the license department this year, according to McGillen. Under the new law, he says, licenses sold in December will cost $1 each and will be good only up to January | Heretofore persons securing their li- cense plates in December were licens- ed for the entire year following.
 Another provision of the new law prevents the issuance of any license without the showing of a tax re- ceipt from the county assessor. In view of the fact that most of the assessors do not start their work un- til the middle of January, it is appar- ent that the work of issuing auto li- censes will be held back and that con- siderable confusion may arise.

Shaving Specials" read the notice, and Jones went in for special 25- cent shave.
 "This towel" said the assitant who waited on him, "has been thoroughly sterilized."
 Good" said Jones.
 "This soap we are using has been debacterialized, and this brush and comb are antisepticized."
 "Excellentw said Jones.
 "The chair in which you are sitting is daily bathed with bichloride of mer- cury. Its cushions also baked in an oven heated to 9S7 degrees. We take every precaution."
 Splendid" said Jones.
 "The razor and father brush are boiled before being used."
 Superb" said Jones.
 "The hot water we use is always doubly heated, so there is no possibil- ity of germs remaining in it."
 Zine" said Jones.
 "This room itself is daily disin- fected, washed, heated and specially treated"

is pressed against the drum when the brakes are operated Usually this dirt may be washed out with kerosene but if it is so firmly intrenched thai 1t refuses to come out with this treat. ment little rosin mixed with castor oil and applied to the bands will cure the trouble.
 Ordinarily there is no danger in re- filling the radiator with cold water even when the engine is hot. If, how ever, the water level in the radiator has dropped so low that the tops of the cylinders are uncovered the engine should be allowed to cool off before the water is poured in. Otherwise there is danger of cracking the cylin- ders, owing to the contraction of the heated metal under the impact of the cold water.
 Most car owners know that the use of felt washers under the iron wash CTS in certain instances is a useful idea. The felt washer gives an elastic hold, allowing for expansion or con- traction, and may keep the threads of an overnight bolt from stripping.
 However, most of them do not know the ordinary corn or bunion plasters make acceptable felt washers and are always easily obtainable.

TRUCK BUYING SHOULD HINGE ON SERVICE IT CAN GIVE

When you approach the question of transportation, the problem Is merely one of covering certain distances with certain loads; when transportation by truck is considered, the first consid- eration is the truck itself.
 You don't buy a truck because it has a certain axle, a famoue engine or a special steering gear. You buy it because you have been sold on the idea that it will haul your goods at a lower cost per unit, whether it be the ton-mile of the inter-city express or the stop of city delivery.
 Looking at it in this light, it isn't a question of the amount of money you pay for the truck; what interests you is the amount of money it is cost ing you per unit of hauling.
 If by buying a truck costing $3,O0O you can deliver your goods more cheaply than you could by buying a truck of the same rated capacity sell ing for $2,O00, you would naturally buy the better truck.
 There are many considerations which should aid you in determining the make of truck for your purpose.
 One is the reputation and financial standing of the manufacturer and the facilities he has for manufacturing a product of the highest grade. Another is the local dealer from whom the truck is bought and to whom you must look for service.
 It is true in the truck business as in all other lines of business that no one can give you something for noth- ing, and it has been the experience of large truck operators that it is econ omy in the long run to buy and pay for the best trucks which can be bought.
 If the reputation, experience, finan- cial standing, etc., of the company are what they should be, your truck will be one of unquestionable merit and worth, instead of low first cost.
 But no matter how good the truck when it is delivered to you, it re- mains at it's maximum efficiency and deliver ton-miles to you at lowest cost.
 An investment in a truck runs into a considerable number of dollars, and when the truck is turned over to a driver you should realize the responsi- bility you are placing upon him. He should realize it, too.
 It pays to secure good drivers and insist that they go over their trucks regularly and treat them in proper way, which will insure the maximum results.
 The railroad practice of sending a locomotive to the roundhouse after a certain number of miles, where expert machinists, wipers and oilers go over it carefully to discover and correct any weakness or defect which might later cause delay on the road, is wise procedure and could we'll be copied by truck operators.
 Remember, that the whole thing

THINGS TO WORRY ABOUT t

While deep gouge in the cars body-work will usually call for the at tention of the coachbuilder, still the really skilful owner may be able, by running into the scratch beeswax and resin melted together and then smoothing off the surface and repaint- ing, to accomplish a satisfactory re- pair.
 With nearly a million new drivers on the roads this year we may be ex- cused for reiterating the suggestion that running on car tracks Is deadly habit as regards the tires. The small sharp pieces of steel that flake off from the tracks cut the rubber and tear the tread and cost the motorists of America many miles of honest tire wear every year. Keep off the car tracks as much as possible.
 The starting 'motor takes the cur rent from the storage battery through brushes. It sometimes happens that these brushes for various reasons are not making proper contact, and this means more or less failure of the sys- tenn. When trouble arises in this sys- tenn these brushes should be carefully examined. Again, one of the cells of the storage battery runs down before others, which are therefore called upon to do more work than they are able to handle. Also, grain of grit or foreign matter may be between the contact points of the switch and may make world of trouble before it ia discovered and dislodged.
 Many motor car users have expert enced difficulty in getting heavy oil to flow from the storage tank in which it is kept. A way around this is to solder what is known as mo- lasses faucet on a ffve-gallon can. This faucet works on the principle of a gate valve and the heavy oil will be found to flow easily.
 Explosions in the muffler are caused by the presence of a fuel charge not ignited during a previous stroke of the engine. If these explo- sions are frequent there is basic cause, which will be either too rich 2 mixture or some trouble in the cleo trical system. Muffler explosions, therefore, must be taken as a symp- tom of some deeper trouble which should be immediately eliminated.
 Chronic squeaking in the braking system is generally due to dirt that has been imbedded in the lining and

TOO ROUGH FOR HIM

A naval aviation cadet at Miami, Fla, was assigned to a seaplane with orders to stay in the air for an hour.
 After a flight of thirty minutes the cadet landed and taxied onto the beach.
 The division commander with fire in his eye, descended upon the luck less student. What's the matter with you?" he demanded q told you to stay out an hour. You've only been gone half that time"
 Really, sir" replied the student, "the air is awful rough. 1 never saw anything like it! Why, looked up the road toward Miami, and it was full of blackbirds, walking into town" !"
