MOTHERS

432 Children under two years have
died in Blount county in the last five
years-and mainly because of i'm
proper feeding.
Would it not be worth while for
mothers to spend a little time and
thought on the child's diet?
If you want to keep your child
healthy, you will not let the child
have candy, between meals. You
will not put sugar or syrup on his
bread, or give him coffee or tea to
drink, or let him have uncooked
cereals because he likes them better
than cooked cereals. You will not
let your child have pennies to spend
for candy, cakes or ice cream. Nine
out of every ten children are sick be-
cause mothers let them have what
ever they want to eat whenever they
want it.

ACUFF GETS
BIG BUILDING
FURNITURE & MUSIC COMPANY
WILL MOVE INTO ELLIS
CHANDLER BUILDING
SEVERAL NEW LINES WILL BE
ADDED, AND LATEST METH
obs INTRODUCED

About Feb. l, the Acuff Furniture
& Music Co., will move into the
Ellis Chandler Company building on
Main street, utilizing the three floors
of this large building. The move
will be made as soon as the Ellis
Chandler stock is moved by Ellis
Proffitt Co., into the Badgett build
ing.
About a year ago, Mr.. o. A. Acut1,
president and manager of the Acuff
Furniture & Music Co., established in
Maryville the Acuff Music shop. He
then had his eye on the future of
Maryville, and planned the opening
of a big furniture and music store
as soon as he could procure build
ing. A few months ago, the company
engaged the store room in the
Cooper & Willard building on Main
street, but realizing this was too
small, they then engaged the building
recently vacated by the Norton Hard
ware Co. However, this was not as
large as they desired and needed, and
when the Ellis-C Chandler Co., build
ing was available the company Sc
cured it. They will move into it as
soon as it is vacated. This concern
will handle everything in the line of
business that their name implies, and
new lines never before introduced in
Maryville, will be carried.
This company has the utmost faith
in Maryville's future, and their pro-
gram of business is based on this
faith and the assured growth OF
Maryville.
The Morris plan of payment which
has grown so popular in recent
months, and which is used by leading
firms throughout the country, is to be
used by this concern.
This company is now at home tt
friends in the Toole building, mex
door to the post office.
