APOSTASY OF TENNESSEE

James II. Lowrey OF the Honey

row over the loss OF Tennessee from
the Solid South" "The Solid south

sooner than a member OF tcls noble

back upon the Democratic party. But
the Solid South Is broken. and II was
broken by the grand old Volunteer

James X. Polk and David Crockett. II
was in Tennessee that this writer
first saw the light OF day. All the
tender memories OF childhood's hap
py days cluster around the hills and
holows. the forests and meadows OF
Old Tennessee. and the very name OF
the old commonwealth has been mu-
sic to our ears. But Tennessee has
fallen from her high estate and not
only has she departed from the house
OF her fathers, but she haa shattered
the Solid South. What must be her
punishment? Surely the wrath of the
Lord must fall heavily upo poor old
Tennessee. Every chestnut crop will
be wormy. the perimmons will lose
their golden glow and honied taste.

will fade. For Tennessee there will
be no southen zephyrs hearing the

liz birds and cardinals will not sing

parted from the old Volunteer state

FROM y. J. GRAYUM
IN FAR AWAY ORIGON

Mr.. WI NJ. Morrow received a
specimen OF fruit and other things
from our one time fellow townsman,
+. j. Grayum new of Oregon. The
specimen exhibited by Mr. Morrow
OF apples prunes. Irish potatoes,
etc. were very fine and II Is evident
by that that Mr.. Grayum has a fine
country. The principal reason why
they raise most anything they want
out there Is because they spend some
money in making preparation TO
grow things and then they grow
them. Any agricultural country with
sufficient moisture can raise any
thing In season that is adapted.
Which reminds us that Scurry coun-
ty need not suffer the ravages OF
drouth so much II we would only
make preparation for few acres OF
irrigated land With the abund-
ance OF water in Scurry county this
IS plausible. We ere glad that Mr..
Grayum has a good country and is
we'll pleased. He spent about thirty
years at Snyder and was reluctant
IN leaving a good country like this

thirty years and established a busl-
ness that he had is bound to have
some tender memories. not only from

TRANSITION PERIOD AT
TURNING POINT.
Federal Reserve Board Reviews
Economic Conditions.

Washington, Dec. 5.--The close OF
the business year OF 1920 Is de-
scribed by the Federal Reserve
Board in a statement tonight as a
turning point In the transition from
wor production conditi ms to the
normal economic basis of interna-
tional and Industrial life.
Tlbe Reserve Boards statement.
which reviews the economic and IL
nancial situation confronting the
Nation during the year, treats OF
present conditions generally in an
optimistic manner, declaring that
the difficulty OF transition will not
be much further aggravated II
also asserts that owing to the Ma
tion's strong banking structure q
normal situation will be restored
with far less than the usual dis
tress attendant on period OF re-
adjustment. 3
The board declared that previous
,periods OF marked readiustment
have been accompanied by sharp
reduction in prices, heavy decreases
ia production, extensive unemploy-
ment and business reaction. often in
volving bank failures. While neces-
sarily uncomfortable the transition
through which the country now ts
passing. the board asserts, has thus
far been attended with only a mini
mum of these unfavorable symptoms.
The fiscal situation both at home
and abroad, however, is still un-
certain. the board declares. and this
is held to he due TO the date at
which the war was over in the finan-
cial sense and to uncertainty as to
the best method of taxation. In in
ternational trade return TO normal
conditions is now in progress. the
board says. With the exception of ag-
rlculture. in which the output was
the largest on record. production has
been decreasing since the spring OF
the year the board stated Textiles.
ship building and very recently the
iron and steel industries are to have
exhibited tendencies of this nature
The board describes the tendency
in the retail trades as downward the
lessened activity occurring for the
most part considerably later than the
turning point in production
The slowing down of the export
trade of the United States during the
year is attributed by the board in
some measure TO the exchange situa-
tion which. It asserts. has steadily
deteriorated American exports seem
to be closely conditioned upon the
volume of imports the board asserts
and warrant the inference tha, there
should be larger import OF goods in
to the United States as result OF
the extensive credits granted foreign
countries
