To some day meet again.

And we are free from pain.
Thus do we think of this dear one
Who from us went away,
To never know a sorrow there,
Nor never feel pain.

With Jesus up on high.

When friends and loved ones meet,
Where in that peaceful healthful

In Annie Blossom Time.

A wedding / attended was held in an
orchard in apple blossom time. One of
the women wore a red shirtwaist. In
the midst Of the service bull In
pasture in the next field rushed in at
the red shirtwaisted woman, who
climbed a tree before the bull arrived.
The rest Of the party and myself did
likewise. The brides veil fell on,
which embarrassed her exceedingly.
The shirtwaist was thrown over the
fence and the bull subdued, and the
wedding continued in peace. The
woman fastened home after new
shirtwaist, wearing her husband s
frock coat.-Exchange.

his mask at Ring, but Rigler managed

Brown Squad Indulges
In Very Light Drill

PROVIDENCE, R. l., Oct 6.-De-
spite the poor showing made by the
Brown players on Saturday, the
coaches failed to work the men hard
this afternoon in preparation for the
Colgate game next Saturday. John
stone, Brooks, Shurtleff, Albright and
Emery were unable to participate in
the practice, although the latter was
in uniform. All are expected to be
in shape for Saturday.
Limbering up was the chief part of
the practice this afternoon. A short
signal drill was held. Beginning to-
morrow the coaches intend to drive
the players hard, as they are much
disappointed in the lack of offensive
power in the team.

AREA IN GRAIN SORGHUM
INCREASING

Grain sorghum area increased from
1914, 900 acres in 1916 to 5,l53,000 in
1917, or more than 80 per cent, while
the production increased from 53,S5S,-
600 to 75,S66,000 bushels, or over 40
per cent This largely increased
quantity of grain was consumed
through the ordinary channels with
otu any undue drop in price. Farmers
report excellent results from Dwarf
milo and Dawn kafir, the varieties
bred and distributed by the United
States Department of Agriculture,
and the demand for seed in increases.
In parts of Arizona and California
Dwarf milo is grown successfully on
irrigated land after barley is har-
vested, thus enabling the grower to
produce two grain crops on the same
land in ope year.

THE STATES EXPENSES.

AS remedy for the States unenvi-
able financial plight editors are urg-
ing the elimination of useless Offices.
TO this The Herald has nc sort OF OBJ
lection. On the contrary it believes
that there are some Offices in Tonnes
see that are not worth their cost to
the taxpayers. At the same time,
even IL every office that has not ab5o-
lutely demonstrated its value were
abolished the saving to the state
treasury would be slight, almost incon-
seQuential.
Only very small proportion of the
states. revenues are expended for sal.
aries. Charities, benevolences, PEN
sions, education, criminal prosecutions
these are the items that dig the big
hole in the states exchequer. They
cannot be reduced. In fact, some
of these items must be increased. The
state Is not spending too much on pub
lie education, surely in view Of the
increased cost of living it is not spend
ing too much for charities and benevo-
lenoes, and he would be indeed bold
man who would suggest decrease in
Confederate pensions.
The simple truth Is that the state
must balance its accounts, not by a
very material reduction of expenses,
but by substantial increase in its re-
ceipts. 1t must have more revenue.
To keep pace with the increasing
cost OF government Tennessee must
either add to its assessed valuation OF
property or increase the tax rate. I'm
Questionably our assessments are UNI
fairly, inequitably and unscientifically
, made. Some additional revenue could
be obtained by a readjustment of as
sessments, but in the final analysis it
comes down to this: Shall we get
more money from the taxpayers by
having low assessment and high
rate, or by high assessment and a
low rate It is immaterial to the tax
payer. 1t has been tried here in Co
lumbia. Just as much or little more
money Is taken from the taxpayers OF
this city with a dollar levy than was
exacted under dollar and seventy
five cent levy. The average taxpayer
had just about as soon pay q, two dol
lar levy on a $4,000 assessment as he
would dollar levy on $4,000 valu-
alton.
Too long we have deceived our
selves with the nation that the states
long overdrawn account can be bal
anced by cutting down expenses. It is
now time to honestly face the situa-
ton and confess the necessity for
more revenue.

ment. He gave the benefit Of his
great Office to- the support of every
campaign for winning the war. He
went from one end of the state to the
other preaching sacrifice and patriot
ism. He responded to every call made
by any war agency. He played no pol
itics in his recommendation for state
administrators but selected those men
whom he believed would render the
nations glorious cause the highest
possible service The exemption
boards which he recommended were
models.
When the war began and the selec-
tive service law hung In the balance,
with probably majority OF the Ten
nessee politicians afraid to give it
their support, the governor did not
hesitate but sounded Al clarion call
for this fairest and most democratic
of all war emergency measures.
I. The Herald wishes the governor
mighty we'll in private life and If he
should again yield to the lure of poll
tics it can state that any constituency
that honors him win place Its commits
sion in hands that will never stain it.

BRITISH ELECTION

Nothing could be more gratifying to
those who believe in sane democracy,
in governments of law and order and
in a peace that will guarantee those
fundamentals OF government for which
the Anglo Saxon has long been rec
ognized as the foremost champion,
than the results of the recent British
elections. OF the 707 members of the
new parliament more than 525 will be
coalitionists, or followers of David
Lloyd George, the plucky little Welsh
man and great statesman to whose
leadership and courage, more than to
that of any other in Britain, is due the
great victory for allied arms. Lloyd
George is one of the really great men
of the world. Altogether his rise from
poverty and obscurity to the com
manding position that he holds is the
most remarkable occurance of that
character of the century.
Not single member OF the old
The Columbia herald. [volume] (Columbia, Tenn.) 18??-1935, 1919-01-03


Asquith cabinet who opposed Lloyd
George was elected. Arthur Hender-
son, the 'pacifict laborite who left the
cabinet and sought to organize labor
into a seperate political party, was
emphatically beaten. Asquith, who
fought Lloyd George after the latter
had organized really effective gov
eminent for the prosecution of the
war, was defeated after continuous
service in the house for thirty-six
years. Only one socialist or British
Bolshevik, was elected. The 1aborites
elected only about half of the mem
bers they had expected to obtain. 1t
was on the whole the most inspiring
popular triumph of real democracy that
has been recorded in any election in
the history of the British Parliament.
1t shows that old England, although
suffering from thousand wounds, in
anguish and grief over the stupendous
sacrifices made by her gallant sons in
every land and cline for the freedom
of the world, stands true to the ever

HILL COMMENTS ON FUTURE

ton given to the future of the Middle
Tennessee Experiment Station by
Hon. John S. Brown Of Spring Hill,
former member of the Maury county
court and one OF the men who played
an important part III securing the sta
ton for Maury county this morning
in commenting on the outlook OF
agricultrral Interests in the county.
"Ihe people, even those who OPP
posed the stations location here,
are realizing now that the purchase
OF the land west of Columbia was
good trade and that the land could
be sold now for more than it cost"
said Mr.. Brown. "Rut of more inn
portance than that in the eyes of the
people of Maury county" he said, is
the plan of the University of lenses
see to make this station model live
stock producing plant and one that
will with it's demonstrations and ex-
periments lead the way in develop
ing the live stock industry in the
state"
Mr.. Brown said that Maury county
is located on the southern extremity
of the blue grass belt and has abund
ant natural water distribution that
makes this a superb live stock pro
ducing section, SO the University has
planned wisely in making the chief
work of the experiment station that
