PATROL SYSTEM ON
COUNTY ROADS IS TO
Be ADOPTED At ONCE
Germantown Pike VIII Be First Pike
In Mason County Put Under the
Patrol System BY County Com.
missloners as Experiment.

County Judge Purnell and the Coun-
ty Commissioners have decided to
adopt the patrol system on some of
the Mason county pixies as rapidly as
they are put in good condition. They
have studied the matter very closely
and have sought the advise of expert
road men on the question and finally
they have reached the conclusion that
the only way to keep road in first
class condition after it has been put
in good shape is to employ the patrol
system.
The Germantown pike has recently
been put in first class condition from
this city to the town of Germantown
and they propose to make this road
an experiment in Mason county. They
will Immediately employ man with a
small automobile truck to take over
the complete care of this road from
Maysville to the Mason county line.
He will be expected to go over the en-
tire road carefully all the time filling
up holes as they come in the pike and
keeping 1t carefully cared for at all
times.
The commissioners propose to adopt
this system on other main thorough
fares in the county as rapidly as these
pixies are again put in first class con-
dition and they have reached the con-
clusion that they can more successful
ly keep the roads in better condition
at the smallest amount of expense
through this system. The system has
worked well in other localities.

GET TOGETHER
Prospects for Next Season to Be DIS.
: cussed at Meeting Of Local Ware
hOusemen Held Today.

Local tobacco warehousemen are
holding a meeting here this afternoon
to discuss the opening Of the next
market and to discuss tobacco condi-
tlon in general. Colonel C. M. Jones
OF the Liberty Warehouse, who is Just
back from the Carolinas, will report
conditions on those markets to the
local warehousemen and general dis
cussion of plans for the opening is
expected.
For various reasons, it is thought
that the Maysville market will not be
opened this year until the first of
January. This has been the general
opinion of the warehousemen express
ed personally on the streets and they
will probably talk this matter over as
we'll.
The meeting this afternoon is not a
formal meeting of the local Tobacco
Association and no definite action will
be taken but the feeling of the ware
housemen will be expressed.

that there were not more fathers to

are needed.

t!or State law. To open the enrolment

that men shall not enroll after the last
Tuesday in July"
Mr.. Cothran said his views in the
matter were sanctioned by Governor
Cooper, Attorney General Wolfe and
Former State Chairman John Gary
Evans, one of the strongest advocates
OF woman suffrage in the State. These
officials and Mr. Evans agree with
the State chairman that women NAV
vote, If registered, in the general cleo
ton. Mr.. Cothran unoficially and as
lawyer said that he was confident
the sutfragists would win out in the
courts in the Tennessee case. The
Tennessee constitution, he says, pro-
vides that the Assembly cannot act
upon such matters as the SUFFRAGE
amendment unless they are laid before
that body prior to the election of the
members of the assembly. The anti
sutfragists hold that the suffrage uucs
ton came before the assembly after
the election of the members that com
pose it. Mr.. Cothran contends that
this clause in the Constitution is prac-
tIca!ly referendum reversed, and,
basing his opinion on the recent Ohio
prohibition case before the Supreme
Court, he says that the Tennessee Con-
stitution will not stand. He holds that
the Assembly can act in spite Of the
clause which appears to forbid it.

 It is also now said to be established that the long-credited belief that Queen Isabella pawned her jewels to furnish Columbus with the funds for the trip Is a legend.

He did not see the mule again, but
two horses he had been leading,
stayed near him for the week. leaving
only to seek spring a mile distant.
Filleman, without even hat for shell

managed to drag himself to bush.

Filleman had sharpened his knife

students during vacation. see that
their interest in study is not allowed
to lapse entirely. She can look after
their general educational welfare and
be of assistance to parents. She can
lead the children occasionally on
hikes into the fields or plan picnics
for them She can teach them object
lessons and when school is ready to
open again she will be ready,
The idea of allowing school houses
to be idle several months a year is a
waste of public money. Students
should have plenty Of rest and re-
creation, but to let them go for four
or FIVE monts year without any
study is an injustice to them. for
many of them have to quit school
when they are old enough to work.
Next year Bernalillo county will
pay it's teachers an average wage of
$101.05 monthly. Last year they were
paid only an average OF $74,07,-El
