THOUGHT WORTH WHITE
HAD BEEN CAPTURED

Joy cheered the hearts of Blount
countians the past week when it was
announced that man believed to be
Worth White had been captured in
North Carolina. Sheriff Edmondson
sent Deputy Grant to the North
Carolina town to identify the man.
1t was not White, though Deputy
Grant said that the likeness of the
two men was very similar. The Of
ficers in the court where the man
suspected of being White, compared
the pictures of the escaped Blount
countian, and wired local officers
that they believed they had the man.
Blount countians hope he will soon
be captured. White had been sent
enced for electrocution, but was be-
ing held in the Knox county Jail
awaiting hearing before the su-
preme court, and he made his get
away from that bastile on the night
that the mob broke open the prison.
and let the prisoners escape. White
was convicted of having slain Sam
Greer.

MARYVILLE AND
TUSCULUM GAME

Efforts to bring the Maryville
Tusculum game to Knoxville on
Thanksgiving day have apparently
failed, and the game will be played at
Greeneville.
Maryville has no game for the APP
preaching Saturday, and the interven-
ing days between now and Thanks
giving will probably be put into hard
practice for developing new plays for
that occasion.
Both Maryville and Tusculum have
met with a fairly successful season
and appear to be so evenly matched
that the game should be very interest
ing.
Tusculum has played four games
while Maryville also has played that
number In weight and speed the
two teams are about equally matched.
Maryville fans however are counting
on the reserve strength of the second
ary men which Coach Feeman will
have on The sideline to offset their
more experienced men while Tuscu-
lum has only seven in reserve.

SIX GALLONS
WHISKEY SEIZED

Six gallons of whiskey were captur-
ed on the inbound train from Walland
last Thursday afternoon. Two
young men boarded The train at
Riverside with two suit cases. Dock
Webb, an officer who was on the
train, suspected there was moonshine
in the suit cases and upon investiga-
tion found three one gallon paint
buckets filled with liquor in each of
the suit cases. The young men were
arrested and brought to Maryville.
Blount county officers are making
it hard for men handling liquor when
ever they are caught. There has
been little booze easily gotten, ap-
parently, in Maryville and the county
the past few weeks, but officers are
on the lookout for those peddling the
juice and those found with it in their
possession in violation of the law will
have to account to Judge Brown.

PUBLIC HEALTH NURSE

Miss Grace Hanson, the Public
Health Nurse employed by the Blount
County Red Cross is at present visit
ing the county schools in company
with DR.. Bryant, the physician sent
to our county to carry out the plans
of an extensive survey Of health con-
ditions in the county wi h especial
reference to preventable diseases.
The Blount County Red Cross finan-
ces the work of the Public Health
Nurse, while an appropriation by the
Coun'y Court augmented by state
funds provides for the work of DR..
Bryant and associates. What is
known as the "Children's Health
Crusade" the work of the Tennessee
Anti-Tuberculosis Association, is also
being introduced in our public
schools. With all these agencies at
work, great Improvement will as
suredly be made in the health condi-
tions of our county. Blount County
stands high morally, intellectually and
commercially, but strange to say al
most the lowest in health of any
county in he state, our tuberculosis
death rate being the highest of any
coun'y y in Tennessee. The splendid
plans now underway will certainly re-
suit in better living conditions and
better health in this county.
Tennessee and Kentucky have the
highest mortality from "The Great
White Plague" of any of the states
in the union, according to the latest
statistics, and viii Blount county
having the highest tuberculosis death
rate in the state, it is surely time for
our people 20 awaken to the gravity
of the situation and leave nothing
undone to clear up this black record.
1t can be done and it will be done if
our people actively cooperate with
the workers now in the field.

LEGION IS FOR
LAW ANDORDER
MEMBERS PLEDGE THEMSELVES
TO HELP MAKE AMERICA
FREE FROM ANARCHY
RESOLUTIONS ADOPTED AP-
PROVING OF STRICT oBSERV-
ANCE OF LAWS

Post No. 13, of the American
Legion, of which R. W. Wright /:
post commander, went on record at
meeting held Monday night, as favor
ing strict observance of the law, II
city, county, state and nation. The
Legion is comprised of ex-service
men of the county, and the local
organization is a part of the national
organization. What the Legion is, is
fully told by Adjt. Walker, on
another page of this issue. With the
100000 ex-service men comprising
the legion, with others to join, this
organization will become powerful
factor in state and national life,
working for the good of the general
public, and not for selfish interests.
Post 13 was in charge of the cele-
bration here last week, and planned
the program for the meeting, inviting
the governor to be their guest.
The address of the governor has
been commended by men of all poll
tical parties, and many republicans
have been heard to express them
selves as favoring Gov. Roberts for
any office to which he might aspire.
Such men as he are needed in public
life.
The following Resolutions were
adopted by the American Legion:
Whereas it is fact that Bolshev-
ism, lawlessness, and disregard for
the rights of other citizens is rife in
our nation, our state, and even in our
own city, manifesting Itself in some
cases in strikes, and in acts of viol-
ence resulting in murder and damage
to property, and also manifesting it.
self in disloyalty to the flag of our
country.
And whereas there are in our own
beloved country organizations which
encourage such acts of lawlessness
and disloyalty and do all within their
power to tear down the principle
upon which our nation was founded.
And whereas members of these or
ganizations did in a western state,
on the 18th of November the ami
versary of the overthrow of Prussi
anism, fire into parade of American
Legion men, men who only last year
offered their lives for the sake of
humanity, killing four of these ex-
service men and wounding others.
Be it known that we the Captain
Emerson j. Lones Post No. 13, Mary
vile, Tennessee, Of the American
Legion, do hereby condemn most
severely such acts Of Bolshevism,
lawlessness, and disloyalty and such
organizations as foster such acts, and
we desire to go on record as promis-
ing to stand by our nation, doing all
within our power to make law and
order and patriotism prevail therein.
R. w. Wright, Post Commander
L. G. Walker, Adiutant.

STREET Looked
LIKE HOG PEN

Visitors to Maryville Saturday
would have thought that the pen had
been lifted and pigs hauled away, but
their place of habitation remained On
the street, had they visited at the
corner of Main and Cusick streets.
Two wagons loaded with apples put
up for the day on the corner and dis
posed of their apples, to which there
could be no objection. But after
they had been disposed of, the spot
looked like a hog pen where swine
had been fed green apples. Apple
pealings, rotton apples, apply cores,
paper bags, horse manure, and tobac-
CO juice deposited by many users of
the weed, were left upon the street.
Of course, the streets of Maryville
are not usually in such condition as
this, but the people should object to
allowing men to stand on the street
corner and throw apple pealings, ap-
pie cores and rotton apples into the
street on one of the busiest corners
where hundreds of people are con-
stantly passing.
Maryville's streets are filthy
enough with the tobacco juice thai is
bespattered over them.
If the city has no laws concerning
the keeping of streets clean and pre-
venting of splitting, she should make
some at once. If she has they should
be enforced, for that is what the city
pays policeman for.

CLOTHES STOLEN FROM
LINE ON PARHAM HILL

One night the past week, thief
or thieves stole the clothes of three
families off the lines in the yards of
houses on Parham hill. Thus far
the guilty ones have not been appre-
hended. Maryville, like o,her towns
and cities of the country, have per-
sons of criminal mind, and the soon
er law violators are apprehended and
punished, the sooner will peace and
happiness reign.
