BIG SHOE BILLS
CAN Be CUT

Twill always wear shoes with Neolin
Soles, /" writes Mr.. M. Newman of the
]. Newman Mfg. Co. Of Minneapolis.
They are superior soles in every way,
waterproof, more comfortable and more
durable. After many months of wear
they remain in good condition"
Mr.. Newman, and millions Of Others
have found that the answer to the shoe
bill problem lies in getting soles that
wear long time-Ne0ln Soles. {
They are scientifically made, very
tough and yet have the other qualities
that soles should have-comfort and
absolute waterproofness. Get Ne0lin-
soled shoes for your whole family.
They are found nearly everywhere and
in all styles. Have worn shoes re-
paired with Ne0lin Soles. They are
made by The Goodyear Tire & Rubber
Company, Akron, Ohio, who also make
Wingfoot Heels-guaranteed to out
wear any other heels.

BOYS AND GUNS,

The introduction in the house of
representatives OF a bill to prohibit
the shipment OF explosives and fire
arms to minors is timely sensible II
is the combination OF irresponsible
youth with firearms that is respon-
sible for most Of the accidents of life
and safety, as we'll as most of the hold
ups and gunplay
Many cities and states have ordi-
nances prohibiting the sale OF such
arms to minors, but there is nothing
to prevent their purchase from mail
order houses which naturally enough,
have never required certificate OF
age and moral character with every
order, They might very prperIy be
obliged to exercise care in the selling
Of these dangerous weapns.
Young hoodlums, stirred up by stor-
les OF war, their lnhibitions against
destruction OF life and property loosed
by such careless talk of Bolshevist
nature, are under less restraint than
usual. And hardy less Objectionable
than the boy bandits now rampant in
many cities are the juvenile nmsances
who exercise their craftsmanship on
the eyes Of the neighbors chickens.
Most dangerous of all are the fools
who handle any shooting iron care
lessly at any time because they did
not know it was loaded"
Firearms are always loaded with
dangerous possibilities, The barring
of their sale to minors would act as
one needed check upon their whole
sale and unnecessary ownership and
abuse.

City Charter Is
Ready For Entire
Committee Of 100

Final decision as to the inclusion or
exclusion of a referendum clause IN
the new charter framed by the citizens
committee Of u will be made by the
citizens committee Of 100.
This committee is said to be repre-
sentative Of the majority Of the tax
payers OF the city of Memphis, and in
eludes big business men, little BUSH
ness men, salaried business executives,
editors OF newspapers, an editor of a
labor paper and 10 representatives OF
organized labor.
The executive committee Of IL. of
which X. r. Ellis is chairman, COM
pieted the preliminary draft Of, the
charter at a meeting Wednesday night,
and copies Of It viii go to the COM
mittee Of 100 as soon as 1t has been
printed In pamphlet form. "If after
the committee Of 90 has surveyed the
charter as drafted by US, they see fit
IN their judgment to attach a referen-
dum clause, they may do so and they
will, said Mr., Ellis Thursday.
The inference is being drawn that as
drafted by the committee Of IL the
charter does not contain a referendum
clause. Mr.. Ellis announced Some time
ago-and has reiterated hat announce
ment-that the referendum clause was
a matter of detail in connection with
the charter which would be left to the
judgment Of the committee of 100,
which would attempt to follow the
wishes Of the majority of the public In
making its decision.
we do not desire" said Mr.. Ellis
Thursday, Ito take, a high hand In
anything. 1t is our aim, pure and sim
pie, to frame a charter which will en-
able the people to take the municipal
government of Memphis out Of the
hands Of professional, fractional poll
ticians. When I say we want to relieve
the city of political control Iea the
word in the derogatory sense, casting
no dispersion on honest politics, but
condemning self seeking, factional po-
litical interests"
