Thousands who have piles have not

Training School 6-Waverly 0.

Last Friday the Training School
football team invaded hostile terri
tory and defeated Waverly 6 to 0.
The Wsverly team was unable to
advance at any time except by a few
RAISES. They played hard and fast
game, and encouraged by the pres
ence of their bo5ters on the side lines
they put up scrappy contest.
The Training School lacked the
pep they have shown in previous
games, duo mostly to the fact that
Quarterback Talley was unable to
take the trip. His absence was de-
morslizing and therefore they did
not pile up the score on Waverly.
The Training School goal line has
not been crossed this season.
Next Friday at three o'clock the
South Fulton boys come over to get
revenge. 1--WE defeated Carr Insti-
tute at Fulton by big score.)

COMMUNITY PRIDE
DISTRICT SCHOOL
Opened Wednesday with Elaborate
Ceremonies and Speaking.

The schools of Hauser Valley
Beech and Maple Grove, heretofore
consolidated into one school district
embracing all the territory with a
few changes of all the former sepa-
rate districts, for the purpose of Gre
ating a school of modern advantages
and higher standards, are now unit
and an extensive school district with
a magnificent new school building.
This school, named the Community
Pride, was formally opened last Wed
nesday in the presence of a throng
of patrons and visitors-practically
all the countryside adjacent to the
school and many friends from other
communities The State Superin-
tendent, Mr.. Claud Williams, DR..
Kincannon, of the West Tennessee
Normal School, DR.. Brister, repre-
senting the Rockefeller Foundation,
County Superintendent B. A. Vaughn
and Senator d. p. Caldwell, this city,
all making addresses congratulating
and complimenting the people Of
Houser Valley for the advance made
in their school interests.
The meeting was held in the new
building, model of construction and
an ornament to the community,
very large one-story building so de-
signed and arranged with sliding
doors that it can be converted into
one large spacious assembly hall or
into halls and class rooms as the oc-
casion demands. 1t is one of the most
modern in architecture, and COM
pleted at a cost of some fifteen thou
sand dollars.
On this occasion the exercises took
most of the morning and afternoon,
with dinner on the ground at noon,
and dinner equal in all respects to
the fame of the finest people and the
finest country in the world.
The speakers were very generous
in their praise for the progressive
spirit thus demonstrated by the peo-
pie of Hauser Valley. The new
building is not only monument to
the enterprise of the community but
a model to the balance of the coun-
ties of the State. 1t is indeed mark
of distinction rejecting the intelli-
gence of the community.
Patrons and families represented
at the meeting were the Housers,
Latimers, Wileys, Joyners, Everetts,
Palmers, Caldwell, Bratton, Snow,
and others.
Prof. Laster presided over the
meeting, a name also well known to
the educators of this county.
1t was red letter day and mile
post in the history of the county
schools.

BLAMES PROHIBITION
Congressman Isaac SiegeI Says Many
Foreign Born Are Leaving the
United States.

New York.-PrOhibitiOn is causing
so many foreign born to leave the Uni
ted States that emigration is exceed
ing immigration, according to Con-
gresham Isaac Siegel, member of
the House immigration Committee.
Ellis Island records showed that i'm
migration since anuary 1 totaled 49,
600, While 61,000 persons left the coun-
try. Most of the latter have gone to
Poland and CZecho- Slovakia. From
the signing of the armiStice until Jan
nary l immigration and emigration
were about equal, approximately 275,-
600 In January $4,000 persons land
ed here from abroad and $4,000 left
the country. In February $4,000 ar
rived and $4,000 left. This month the
excess of emigration IS on the in
crease, $4,000 having left the country
and 5000 having arrived. 1t is esti-
mated that the figures for the whole
month will be $4,000 departures and
24,000 arrivals. While a desire to live
in rejuvenated home lands is a factor
in emigration, Mr.. Siegel believes that
prohibition is the principal reason. In
ability to buy beer or wine, he says,
has caused i'll feeling among foreign.
born residents, particularly in mining
districts.

GERMAN EMPIRE
AND NATION IN
GREAT DANGER
COLLAPSE NEARED BY TEUTONS,
-kAPP ASSERTS, IN DECREE
TO CITIZENS GUARDS.
Soviet Drive Feared BY Prussian Chief
Strong State Organization Is To
Be Required to Overcome Fears of
Reds, Premier Adds.

Berlin.-The Imperial office for citi-
zen guards has issued a proclamation
to citizens guards saying that the new
government of labor has taken the fate
of Germany in its hands. Until the
nations decision is taken it will con-
tinue to permit all citizen guards to
work for the maintenance of peace
and order. The hour demands that
every German, of whatever party, it
says, shall exert himself in loyal per-
Torrance of his duty to prevent civil
war. The proclamation to citizen
guards issued by DR., Wolfgang Kapp,
new Premier of Prussia, says:
"The empire and nation are in great
danger. Germany is approaching with
terrible rapidity the complete collapse
of state and legal order. Distress is
increasing, famine threatens and cor
ruption, usury, swindling and crime are
raising their heads still more impu-
IDENTIFY, and the Government, without
authority or power and allied with cor
ruption, is not in position to deal
with the danger. Away with Govern
ment in which Erzberger is the leading
spirit. This Government is not capa-
bic o. wardng off Bolshevism, which is
treatening from the East. Germany
can escape external and internal col
lapse only by the re-estabishment of
a strong state power"
The proclamation then asks what
ideas are to guide us in this contin-
gency?" and answers, mo reaction but
liberal development of the German
state and of the sacredness of right.
Duty and conscience again shall rule
in German lands and honor and hon
esty shall be restored. The National
Assembly, which continues to govern
without mandate, declares itself to
be in permanent violation of the con-
stitutiOn, pOstpones the elections until
autumn. A tyrranous party Govern
ment would deprive the public of the
important fundamental right of elect
ing a President. No means is left to
save Germany but Government of
action. Finance, taxation and the
sovereignty of the Federal states will
be restored on constitutional fed !
erative basis: the Government will |
safeguard war loans and soon will |
begin their payment. Rural and town
landed property will be tried properly |
for purposes of reconstruction, in or
der to put landed property in posi- |
lion to meet this taxation; economic |
freedom will be restored to it."
