GREENvILLE

Greenville. November 14.-(Special)
During the month of October $6o7s.11 was
collected from the automobile owners by
Judge II. D. Lampley of the probate court
for licenses. This amount greatly ex-
ceeds all previous months, due to the in
creased costs of the license and also to
the greatly Increased number of automo
bles and trucks in the county. OF this
amount the state highway department
will receive 80 per cent, and the remain
ing 20 per cent goes to the Incorporated
town or city in which the owner of the
automobile or truck lives.
Ed Shirling of Greenville, who is full
back on the famous Auburn football
team, was in the city this week visiting
his mother, Mrs. George Shirlng.
Owing to the fact that this popular
Greenville boy is a member of the Plains
men tribe considerable interest is being
taken in the games that are being played
by the Auburn team. The friends of this
young man and the people of Greenville
are proud of his record this year. and he
has proven to be one of Donohue's most
valuable assets. He weighs about 1856
pounds and when force is needed to carry
the pigslSn through a strong line Shirling
Is cailed INTO action and, he is almost
sure to make touchdown. During the
game with Spring Hill last Saturday he
was credited with one touchdown, and ii
was also Shirling who made a touchdown
in the game with the Commodores. He
says that he is confident that Auburn
Will wipe up with the strong A. & NJ
team at Birmingham Saturday, and he
states that the Thanksgiving game with
Tech is going to end with Auburn hav-
ing the largest number of scores.
The city of Greenvlle receNtly pur-
chased $50 horsepower boiler, and it has
been erected at the city pumping station
This addition will enable the city to give
a better water service. An additional
air compressor has also been purchased
and Superintendent Koepke is looking for
this machine at any time. When it is
erected it will complete a two-unit sys-
tenn. thereby assuring an adequate water
supply in any emergency.
