SCHOOL BOARD
y OF CITY MEETS
w N Porter, One OF New Members
Is Selected AS Secretary And =
Treasurer of Board.

Mr. Nat Porter was made secretary
and treasurer of the city school
board, at meeting Of the board pre-
sided over by President w Dale at
the National Toilet Building Tuesday
evening. Mr. Porter is one of the
newly elected board members, the
other being R d Caldwell, both of
whom were present at this meeting,
and both of whom will serve faith
fully and ably in this new official
capacity. Each has children in the
schools, and will have more than a
passing interest" in how the schools
are conducted.
The only other business of the
meeting was the appointment of a
committee to attend to the repairing
and preparation of the city school
buildings for the fall terms, and of
another committee to consider the
filling of the several vacancies now
in the city school faculties.
The exact date for the opening of
the schools will not be set until Prof
M M Phillips, principal, returns from
his summer at Columbia University,
New York, but it is more than GER
tain that the schools will not begin
until the 18th of September, as the
first week in the month is fair week,
and would likely be against an aus
picious beginning.

SUFFRAGE WILL
PROBABLY FAIL
in LEGISLATURE
Miss White, Suffrage Chief,
Says Ratification Being
Made Football.
ATTEMPT is MADE TO
DEFER RATIFICATION
Ardent" Supporters in Po-
litical Ring Falling Down
on Support of Measure.

Ratification of the suffrage am
endment is being made a political
football in Tennessee" said Miss Sue
White, chairman of the Tennessee
branch of the National Woman's
party, following the introduction of
the suffrage amendment before the
special session in Nashville of the
legislature. "Gov Roberts has
recommended it in his message, but
the fact remains that several of his
chief supporters are either actively
opposing ratification or giving it
only half-hearted support.
"Gov Roberts has gone over the
poll with us and is giving much time
to conferences, but it hasn't meant
anything in the face of the opposit
ion that has developed among men
that are his acknowledged support
ers."
Opposing forces in the suffrage
ratification fight clashed for the first
time before the state legislature on
Wednesday, when a resolution was
introduced by Representatives Luth-
er, Turner, Hall, Bo I'd and Millican
to postpone action on the ratification
resolution to August "a in order to
give opportunity for mass meetings
to be held to determine the will of
the people over the state.
Proponents of the deferment sta
ted that they wished to vote as their
constituents might direct, and that
they must have time in which to
learn the peoples sentiment. Oppo-
nents charge that the move was one
to defeat the ratification resolution.
Those in touch with matters hav-
ing to do with the resolution to rat
ify the nineteenth amendment to the
federal constitution, which was in
troduced in both houses of the leg
islature Tuesday morning, expressed
the belief today that there would be
probably two heraings on the reso-
luton before final action.
If this program goes through final
action On the resolution will net be
had befoEs the middle of next week.

STOCK COMP ANY
IS FORMING HERE
Will Operate Chain Of Automobile
Supply and Accessory Stores
Throughout State,

Incorporated under the laws of the
State of Tennessee and application
granted for charter upon request
of Fred Bryant, L C Walter, VII
Miller, G H Ewing and H l. Kirk,
new stock company is being launch
cd in Paris for the purpose of in
stalling and operating chain of au-
tomobile supply stores throughout
the state.
The purpose is to open such a
store in every principal town and
city in the state, handling all kinds
Of automobile supplies and accesso-
ries. The theory is developed upon
the plan of the Piggly Wiggly and
Ban Yam system of stores, which
enables bulk buying to produce low
er prices in quantity and subsequent
lower sales prices, thus attracting a
large trade.
The new company expects to in
.ugurate some 25 stores within the
'irst year, and start operation of at
ieast five of them by the first of
January so as to get their purchase
power inaugurated for the big spring
business. 1t is understood one of
the first five stores for which plans
are being perfected, will be located
in this city.
Arrangements are now practically
complete for putting into the field
men who will organize the stores,
and stock subscriptions are being lis
Ted by H L Kirk and others imme-
diately interested in the organization.
Mr. Kirk has made a thorough study
cf the principles involved, having the
benefit of large experience while in
Pittsburg the past few years, and
has observed through the experience
of similar chain of stores in the east
chat the proposition is one worthy of
full confidence, and is no chance
proposition, but strictly bona-fide
plan.
