HOUGHTON. Mich. Sept 80
Owing to the scarcity of Lake Su-
perior white fish and trout, suckers
are now being shipped TO the Chi
cago market. where there is a ready
demand for them. One Huron Bay
fisherman has just shipped 100
pounds OF the usually despised fish
Suckers from Lake Superior are said
TO be especially good and palatable
inasmuch as they are taken from
some OF the coolest water i'm the

 As to the matter of registration, f was reported by Election Commissioner M. E. Morris. who had just finished the largest days business since he opened his office. that already he had regis tered S750 qualified electors.
 Tn my opinion" stated Mir. Morris yesterday, there will be approximate ly 27,000 names on the list of qualified voters who will be entitled to vote in the coming elections, provided they have met the poll tax requirements. This means that the year 1920 will find Jefferson county with the great est number of voters in her history, and 10000 more than at the previous cleo tions" There were, according to Mir. Morris, 17.79S qualified voters at ths previous elections.
 The election commissioner has To- cated his office in Room III of the county courthouse building and with a force of five helpers will register voters until March II of this year.
 To those exempted from the payment of poll tax for any length of time and who come under the ruling of the re- cent legislation regarding ex-seryice men, although no proclamation has been isued by the governor, they are requested to bring their. army dis charges CT a certified copy of same to George Whitfield in the office of the probate court, where an exemption will be allowed.
 Those affected by this exemption are urged to come as soon as possible to claim exemption as a failure to do so may keep their names from appearing on the list of qualified voters. A con t,--tt is then most likely should the man tlIen try to vote even though technical ly he is entitled to vote

OPTICIANS MUST TAKE EXAMINATION New Law Requires License to Practice Optometry In
 City and State

Standard examinations for license to practice optometry in Alabama will be held tomorrow beginning at o'clock in the directors room and library of the Civic Association, and will continue until all applicants have been examined. The examination will be conducted by the state board, composed of H. P. Mcdonald, Mobile, president; Hardwick Ruth, Mont gomery, vice president; J. H. Finder. Birmingham, secretary manager; J. H. Taylor, Gadsden, and W. c, Strickland, Dothan, associate members.
 This examination is held under the pro- visions of Section of the optometry law, approved October 8. 1919, which quires all persons engaged in the prac- tice of optometry in Ala bama for less than three years immediately prior to October 8, 1919, to. pass the standard ex- animation and receive license from the board or discontinue the business
 Persons who have been continuously engaged in the practice of optometry in Alabama for more than three years prior to the date of the approval of the bill have been given until February 5. 1920, to file their intention of continuing the business and their willingness to take the limited examination provided for in Section s. some time before November 5, 1921. Failing to comply with this regu- lation they must give up the practice of optometry in Alabama, which is defined by law as 'the examination of the hu- man eye for the purpose of ascertaining any departure from the normal, measur- ing it's functional powers and the adapt ing of mechanical means for the aid thereof3
 It is probable that the examination will continue through Tuesday, according to pr. l. H. Finder, as there are a large number of applicants to take it at this time. President Mcdonald arrived yes terday and the other members of the board are expected to reach Birmingham today.
