THE BLooMIN' SERVICE.

The telephone exchange disclaims
responsibility for the delay in turn
ing in the alarm when a residence
right in town burned up one day last
week.
However, from the character Of
service that is being given by the
telephone system they are about in
the same position as local advertis-
er would place the men Of the town
this week. He says that he is sell
ling SIS suits; that everybody will
think you've got one of them, so you
might as we'll buy one, and be done
with it, etc.
TO say the least Of it the telephone
service is so fearful that words in the
standard dictionaries, or in the slang
dictionaries, that are mailable with
out violating the obscene language
ruling, do not express the actual sit
uation
In the vernacular Of the streets
the service would make a preache,
cuss."
When you can't get your signaa
answered, and then go out and Dor
trow telephone and request that il
be answered; come back to your owr
phone, and get the response "dit
they answer?" when you hadn't cal
led anybody, you are reminded of thu
fellow in Jail who asked through th,
4 bars as to what time it was, and tn,
jailer wouldn't tell him, because thu
man behind the bars wasn't goin,
/ anywhere.
In other words, if you couldn't fins
something funny" or some parod,
for amusement, the telephone com
pany would doubtless have to discon
tinue the service Of all phones, ex
cept the preachers phone, for viola
ton of the ''cussing" rule.

ject, except to get the pleasure Of ,

that is to be given next week to the
returning soldiers of the 30th divis
ion, and to all other soldiers who
have returned or been mustered out
Of service, inquiries are being made
Of the local soldier memorial commit
tee as to what and when Henry coun-
ty will take some action.
Chairman Joel M. Porter is plan
ming to call the executive committee
together at an early date. Howev-
er, it is not understood that the Hen
ny county committee will take any
immediate steps for a reception, but
rather wait until all the soldiers are
mustered out of service, and then
proceed to extend them greetings and
expressions Of credit in proper form
for their valor, etc.
1t was said to begin with, when
the movement was inaugurated here,
that the reception was to be no ice
cream and cake affair. There is now
sentiment against any "eats" at
all. It seems to be the consensus Of
opinion at present instead to erect
a suitable memorial to the "boys."
And, II has been suggested that this
monument or memorial be located
in the courthouse yard, constructed at
cost Of $4,000 to $4,000, with a
cornerstone or suitable inscription
for the heroes that lost their lives in
the service.
Carrying out the above plan, day
would be designated for the unwilling
Of the memorial, and full attend
ance Of all soldiers arranged for, to
be under command and recruited in
the regular army manner, and full
dress parade staged.
In view of the fact that less thar
half Of Henry county's service men
which number more than 500, will
not have returned any time soon, II
would seem that this new plan is the
more appropriate, and it is suggest.

THE HIGHWAY BILL.


ity of the proposed 5o,0OO,OoO bond
issue for trunk line highway purpos-
es in the state, is set forth by the
Nashville Banner, which editorially
says:
The bill proposing a bond issue for
$50,00O,O00 for building highways in
Tennessee is rather a stupendous
proposition from the viewpoint of the
average citizen Of the state and win
hardly meet with wide or generous
approval.
Ii is more money than is immedia-
tely needed for the end desired, more
than could be expended in number
of years, without gigantic effort at
construction, and more than it would
be safe to entrust for a number of
years to commission subject to fire.

The plan is to provide sinking

up at the expiration of twenty years
with revenues derived from taxes
levied for highway purposes. May.

feasible, but the maintenance of the
highways would be matter of con
siderable cost. They would fall rap

Besides that, the states experien

OF course the state needs highway,
and there is strong public desire
that they be built. The necessity
for road improvement is general,
recognized by an intelligent either

done in that respect.
Then, too, the Federal Government
has made provision for liberal aid il

tant and popular dress accessory Of
the season. 1t has made It's appear
ance in innumerable fabrics, colors and
general styles. Primarily the separate
vest is intended for wear with the two
piece suit, but it is possible to wear it
with tailored or semitailored street
frock, transforming plain dress into
one that is elaborate enough for after
noon wear. These vests may be made
with or without collars, and the choice
of fabrics covers the entire range from
filmy nets and laces to heavy, warm
angora Separate vests of fur and imi-
tation fur are also often made to ac-
company plain tailored suits, and they
may be worn either underneath or out

Due to arrive just now are the more
or less pretentious outfits for the dew
otees of midwinter sports. Pleasure
seekers are divided into two factions;
one of them lured by sunshine and
soft air, gay companiOnship and new
adventure, to the South, and the other,
strong for the North with it's ice and
snow and lusty sports. In the South
fashions add their interest to every
occupation, and this element of inter
est is not lacking where the back
ground of all apparel is a world COW
cred with snow and ice-bound. Since
such background calls for the sparkle
of brilliant color, we await the entry
of lot of fascinating and snappy togs
for Northern sportsmen, just as we
would that of a heart-stirring military
bland.
In the vanguard, having already ar
rived for Christmas, there are new
skating sets in two or three pieces.
They are made of soft felts, basket
weave cloths or developed in any OF
the heavy, soft weaves among winter
coatings. Some of these sets add
small muff TO the scarf and cap.
There are hand-knitted and hand-cro-
chetted sets, of yarns; those of an
CORA having made their entry earliest.
In the picture above two sets made of
cloths are shown, one Of felt and one
Of a basket-weave.
At the left, smart set is made of

somher Hues.

Beige crepe de chine and dark blue
satin, tete de negre velvet and black
satin, blue serge and black satin, and
black georgette and black satin are
favOrite combinations. A certain soft
shade of terra Gotta is also used eff
fectiYely with black. The scarcity Of
fabrics and the necessity for conserv-

of fashion
