First Monday Ia the day to sec
about the taxes. Let's all pet
busy and work for a tax levy
that will give us of the rural dis
tricts a sixsfnonths' school each
year. Experienced teachers are
demanding and should receive
more money than is now being
paid them for teaching. tt we
don't want to fall down on our
schools like we are about to do
oh our roads, something must be
done right away.
Lots of road talk and nothing
done yet, and we hear that the
county court is going to knock
out the whole thing. We hope
this will not be- done, and that
the surveys will be made like the
county court understood it. The
court voted these bonds with the
understanding that the roads
were to go the shortest and best
routes to connect the county seats
and why don't the county COM
missioners see that this is done
and stop this wrangling and side
tracking, and let these routes be
surveyed regardless. Of whose
house it passes or does not pass +?
We all know that. two or three
miles further is not the nearest
and the cheapest. We hear that
some communities offer $35, 00O
| if the road will go their way.
What inducement is this if the
roads cost $40, 600 a mile? If a
route is three miles longer than
another, where is there any econ
omy to it? So let these county
commissioners see that'these sur
|veys for roads go straight thru.

ANOTHER SUMMONS

On Monday morning, Septem-
Der Il, 1920, at 10 o'clock, Miss
Francis Pigott, died at st. Jo-
seph Hospital, in Memphis, af-
ter a lingering and painful illness
of many months. For a great
part of the time was in the home
of her sister, Mrs. w. F. Lipford.
Later she was removed to the
hospital. During all of the time
the patient received the atten-
ton of the most eminent physi-
clans in the city.
The deceased was a most Iowa
bic and charming young woman,
and her many friends. and rela-
tives admired and loved her for
her manifold graces and virtues;
for her sweet and kind and gen
tie nature. She was patient, ten
der and whole-souled; buoyant
of spirit, and always cheerful
and happy. When affection s
heavy hand was laid upon her,
and she realized The desperation
OF her situation, she bore her
suffering with patience and for
titude, and smiled in the pres
ence of death. Her life was a
beautiful one, In the bloom and
vigor of young womanhood, she
answered the summons, in the
presence of loved ones whose
daily ministrations during the
months of her illness had light
ened the burdens and frightened
the days for her.
She was reared at Bethel
Springs, being the daughter OF
VIM. and Mrs. Rachel Pigott. de-
ceased She had fitted herself
for a business career. and when
taken ill held a responsible posi-
ton with the Pittsburg SITES
Company.
The deceased is survived by

AGood Outing

Tommy McGintley Matthew
Bigger, 0. s. and Grady Aber-
nathy drove to Tuscvmbia bot
toms Monday and spent a couple
of days squirrel hunting. No big
lot of squirrels killed, but enough
to satisfy hunger and a few to
bring home. Monday night was
spent in the home of Mr., and
Mrs. B. F. Howell, who are very
hospitable to those who come in
to their home. Mr.. Howell owns
several hundreds of acres of land
in that section and puts in most
of his time looking after timber

EACH VOTER TO HAVE
 ONE MINUTE TO VOTE
New Record Must Be Set Tuesday If All City's Elec-
 tors Are Accommodated.

Less than one minute can he allot- ted each elector in which to cast his vote next Tuesday if the 14o73 voters are to be given an opportunity to reg ister their choices for national and state officials. according to figures which have been compiled and were made public today by Registrars Will liap Ziegler and Thomas J. Smith Three machines will be placed in each of the six voting places and it will be necessary to have a continuous line from 5:3o a. m. until D, m if all arc to be accommodated.
 By wards, the number qualified to vote is: First, men 1922, women l11O. total 2622: Second Ward, Men 1297. women 732, total 20es: Third Ward, men 1922, women 1336. total 2s5S; Fourth Ward. men 1414. women 6ss, total 21oo: Fifth Ward. men 1297, women 422. total 1719: Sixth Ward. men 1775, women s7o, total 2s45. The totals are: Men. ss27: women. 5146; grand total, 14073.
 In order to accommodate all each machine in the first ward will have to be used in one hour by 73 voters, in the second ward Dy 5b, Tn the third ward by s2, in the fourth ward by 5s, in the fifth ward by 4S, in the sixth ward by 75.
 So that there may be no overcrowd- ed periods the registrars have appealed to the women electors to come to the polissduring the hours of to II o'clock in tho morning or to o'clock in the afternoon. An extra force of checkers will be on hand to take care of the greatly increased task of handling the voters
 It is quite probable that everyone who is inside the polling place at 6 o'clock will be allowed to cast a vote. although the generally accepted con- struction of the voting law is that the machine cease operation at o'clock. The statute reads that the '.polls'' will close at that hour. which the regis trars believe has no bearing on inc voting machines until those already in have voted.
