A GREAT SINGER

Under the auspices of the Cum
ebrland Club. Mr. Paul Ryman ol
Nashville, appeared in concert, lat
the city school auditorium, last Mon
day evening. the event being unani
mously pronounced a veritable tri
umph by Cookeville's music lovers
who atteded Nen-masse to greet the
South's sweetest tenor.
Mr.. Myman was received with un
mfstakable approval, and, that he
carried his audience with him from
start to, finish was evidenced by. the
numerous and enthusiastic encores
he received throughout the perform
ance. Mr.: Fyfan undoubtedly has
a most magnificent voice, and it's
adaptation to SO varied a program
as was rendered on this occasion
was little short of wonderful.
When the second number had been
reached ,the singers voice had clear
ed perfectly, and the three Irish Sc
lections, "The Lark In The Clear
Air. "The Little Irish Girl, and
Molly" were sung in mastery
fashion. The rendition of "The
Americans Come" aroused a patri-
otic fervor in the audience that has
seldom if ever been equaled in
Cookeville. The singers smooth,
well-rounded voice rang out with
bell-like clearness and stirred the
very souls of his hearers; "Ah, Let
Me Weep, Lord" and Answer, fol-
lowed, and with the closing Of this
trio of Masterpieces. his audience OF
jurors were ready to pronounce the
singer "guity IN the first degree"
with the punishment of ENC pre-, en-
core" unanimously fixed. "My- Bride
Shall Be My Flag. by A. Rotoli. was
the last selection On the menu Of
this musical feast. and. like all it's
predecessors, was well rendered
and enthusiastically received by a
most appreciative audience.
The flawless support rendered by
Mrs. Rymap. as accompanist is wor-
thy of. the highest praise, and it cer-
tainly should not be overlooked that
her part in the program added ma
to the brilliant success of
her accomplished husband.

PARAMOUNT PLAYERS COMING

The coming of this splendid dra-
matte organization will prove quite
an event in the amusement annals
of Cookeville. The cast of the Para
mount Players has been selected by
theatrical fanager who has been
actively connected with the profes-
sion for considerably over a quarter
of century and who has drawn up
on his wide acquaintance among
performers to complete an organi-
zation that for pure solid entertain
ing powers is unbeatable. A splen-
did line of plays is being presented
b ythis cOmpany-plays that abound
with good pure sentiment and excel
lent comedy. the kind you don't have
to scratch your head and study your
self into a headache to discover
what it is all about. Although it is
their first trip to Cookeville. this
company is very we'll known thru
out the Southeast of the Mississippi
River. Their tent which is absolute
ly waterproof, will be located on the
Carlin lot. The opening play will be

mitted free Monday night when ac-
companied by someone holding paid

INsPEcTIoN OF NURSERIES,

Since it is a State requirement
that owners of all nurseries, green
houses and strawberry plant fields
from which trees. shrubs. plants,
etc., are sold, exchanged or given
away, have their places inspected,
and that requests for inspection be
filed in the office of the State en-
tofologist & Plant Pathologist. Knox
vile, Tenn, prior to Julp list, no
uce is hereby given in order that
no Inspections be belated because
of delayed notification for inspection.
The many hundred inspections
necessitate the saving of time and
expense by arranging itineraries to
facilitate the work and to avoid go
ing to the same county more than
once. Prospective growers, as well
as those who have been on the list
before, should take heed to this no.

BETTER TENANT HOUSES

From every quarter comes the re-
port that better housing conditions
make the tenants more contented
and more permanent. The women
in the family have very large infiu-
enoe in the matter of whether the
family moves or not, and the better
house causes their influence to be
towards staying wherethey are, A
good house increases the self-re-
spect of the occupants, and adds
somewhat to their social standing
Numerous instances are cited in
which farmer, having provided a
good house, had no difficulty in keep
ing plenty of labor even during the
rush of the war These are in al
most every case the most progress
siye farmers of the community;
Mountain advocate., 1919-12-05

this indicates that the value OF Bet
ter tenant houses is Just beginniy
to be appreciated. AS with all 9TH
er better farming practices, proba-
bly, its progress will be SLOW But

DEMOCRATIC FEELING

One of the underlying reasons for the
supreme confidence felt by members of
the Senate who seek amendment of the
treaty of Versailles and modification by
reservation or otherwise Of the League
Covenant may be found in their personal
knowledge Of the real attitude of great
many of the Democratic Senators toward
Wilson. They know that many of the
proposals Of the President with respect
of foreign relations do violence to every
well established tradition of the party
of Thomas Jefferson, and they also know
that the loyalty of many of their Demo-
cratic colleagues runs more strongly to
the principles of the party than to the
present leader of that party. The only
thing that holds men like Martin of Vir-
ginia, Overman of North Carolina, Smith
Of Georgia, Bankhead Of Alabama, Sim
mons of North Carolina, King of Utah,
and Myers Of Montana in line is fear of
the President applying the party lash.
There are no members of the Senate, Re-
publican or Democratic, who are strong
err believers in old fashioned American
aloofness from European intrigue than
the men we have named. Their Republi-
can colleagues know this and count upon
it as factor in preventing the ratifica-
ton of the covenant in its present form.
It's this thinly disguised dissatisfaction
among many Democratic members of the
Senate over the Presidents course and
his attitude toward the Senate that makes
the sensational change of front by form
err President Taft so important. This
latest proposal Of the ex-president is re-
garded as opening the door of negotia-
ton for these disgruntled Democrats who
are counted upon to eagerly seize upon
the first opportunity to get away from
their present uncompromising attitude of
unconditional ratification.-M Manchester
Union.

MORE TERRORISM

Speaking in behalf of the latest Demo-
cratic scheme of state socialisnl-the per-
manent politicalization of the railways
Representative Sims of Tennessee, says
the railroad workers "are in no mood to
brook the return of the lines to their
former control" This threat that the
railroad workers are in no such mood
that the people of the country, acting
through Congress, dare not do what
seems to be best for the whole public af-
ter their Illuminating experience in poll
teal control and operation of railways,
is entirely consistent with the usual
course of state socialists in politics. They
do not believe in government by judg-
ment or conviction, but in government by
fear. Their stock in trade is terrorism.
The country is getting tired of such boil
shevik methods, no matter who employs
them; getting tired Of surrendering to
threats by groups, elements and classes.
1t is because partly, of continued yield
ing to such coercion, that the country
finds itself in its present plight The lat
est effort to coerce Congress, cooked up,
as the people believe, by administration
politicians, must fall The administration
has control of railways rates and wages;
it is giving us an unforgettable exhibition
in the beauties of state socialism; let it
meet the issue it has created without try
ing to run away from it or throw respon-
sibility over to Congress. And let Con-
gress now adopt new declaration Of in
dependence of executive domination
