In the editors recent trip over the
state he only found two towns out
side of Cookeville where automobile
drivers are allowed to make all the

change will be so noticeable and de-
sirable that it will be kept up. Stop
the noise and see.

County Trustee j.. 7. Jordan asks
that attention be called to the law
which makes the payment of poll taxes
thirty days before an election pre-
cedent to voting. In order for voters
to be qualified to vote in the coming
August election the poll tax must be
paid on or before July 6. next Tues
day. Another statement we are re-
quested to make is that ex-service men
who will pay before that date will be
excused by the trustee from paying
the penalties that accrue for failure to
pay before taxes were delinquent

no chance to secure Temporary certi6-
Gates any more for those who have not
stood the examination. White and col

during the coming school year. Those
taking this examination will not get
grades and certificates from it until
