TENNESSEE
RESC|NDS VOTE
ON SUFFRAGE

NASHVILLE, Tenn, Sept. The
fact that the Tennessee House OF
Representatives Tuesday, with a
quorum attending, removed from itz
journal all record of its ratification
of the federal suffrage Amendments
may not after all affect the passage
of the 18th amendment with the aid
of Tennessee's vote.
Attorney General Thompson in q
letter read on the House floor during
the discussion of the matter Of recon-
sidering the vote expressed the opin-
ion that reconsideration Of the resol-
uation of ratification was impossible
since the House already had adopted
it and Gov. Roberts had certified to
Secretary of State Colby this action
by both House and Senate.
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. would not state
whether they expect to make an ef-
fort to have the Senate, which voted
to ratify, 25 to 4, reverse its action.

M. M. A. Outlook
Is Very Bright
For This Year

Col. E. Y. Burton has just returned
from a trip in the interests of the
Missouri Military Academy and re-
ports the outlook for the school this
year as exceptionally bright. He will
not only have a full school but his
faculty will be the strongest in the
history of the institution.
The fact that the cost Of attending
Missouri Military Academy is from
$50 to $100 more than any other mil
itary school in this section and that
it will be full while other schools,
whose charges are less, but service is
not as good, will be short in attend
ance shows the standing the local
school has attained.
A quarter mile cinder track is now
being built about the athletic field and
a number of other improvements are
being rushed preparatory to the open
ing of school Sept. 16.
Col. Burton says that not only has
the student body an exceptional lot
of athletes among its number but
that the band this year will be an un-
usually good one. Championship
athletics promise to continue to be
a feature of M. NJ. A.

Hardin College
Receives First
Endowment Check

Hardin College, Friday morning re-
ceived it's first check toward the pay
ment of the 100000 allotted the local
school for endowment and equipment
purpose from the hundred million
fund being raised by the Northrn
Baptist convention and to be distrib-
uted among 81 Baptist colleges. This
is in addition to the money raised in
other Baptist drives. Just as soon as
the management of the school can
ascertain positively the amount due
the school from these drives, immed-
late action will be taken toward the
erection of a dormitory on the cam
pus. 1t is hoped that this work can
be started this fall.
The enrolment at Hardin this year
is larger than it was at this time last
year even though the tuition at the
school is $100 more than last year.
Every indication points to Hardin
having all the students it can pos
sibly accommodate.
The faculty this year is exception
ally fine and the year promises to be
one of the best in the schools his
tory.
Just when the work on the new
dormitory will start is not known.
The Board is waiting to ascertain the
full results of all campaign drives and
then build according to the money
which has already been paid the in
stitution with view Of having fur
ther buildings later.

Advance Sale
OF Chautauqua
Tickets Is $l998.72

The advance sales of chautauqua
season tickets in Mexico amounted to
$199S.72, or $29s.72 more than the
guarantee of $170O. The Kings
Daughters who had charge of the
sale netted about $3.50.
Next year, on account Of the in
creased cost of giving the chautauqua,
the guarantee price will be raised to
$500, or $100 more than this year.
An increase of twenty-five cents will
be charged on each ticket which will
make less tickets to raise the $500,
than was sold this year, according to
C. R. Aydelott, superintendent of the
chautauqua here. This is because of
the increase in passenger and freight
rates, and in hotel charges.
Owing to the increase in the cost Of
everything connected with the produc
ton of a chautauqua the contract for
Mexico next year will call for 25
cent advance in the cost of a season
ticket and $1OO increase in the total
contract price. This will mack it pos
sible to fill the contract by selling
less tickets then at present for it will
take 720 tickets to make the contract
good instead of the 756 this season.

THRIFT AND CAUTION

CHICAGO, Aug. G.-Extrav-
agance on the part of the working
class is on the wane and a feeling of
caution rules all business transactions
because it is felt that drop in prices
is inevitable, according to the month
ly statement of the federal reserve
bank here.
The buying public, the statement
said, is checking the extravagances
which have made "bananzas" hitherto
for industries and trades catering to
popular desires and needs.
The key to the entire situation, it
is declared, is "a dearth of liquid cap
ital and restriction of bank credit"
The labor situation has improved,
though there is still some shortage,

R. NJ. WHITE SON. Props. - IN. WHITE, Editor
Miss Craig Gives
Demonstration OF
Electric Stove

Miss Veda Craig of Chicago is hold
ing demonstration at the Mexico
Power Company Of an electric stove.
Miss Craig says that there is no heat
wasted in cooking, as the stove does
not get hot nor do the handles Of the
pans become hot. The heat can be
regulated and is uniform. The uni
formity Of the heat causes water not
70 boil out or over and in this way
food is cooked more quickly, and is
not so likely to burn. Drafts do not
make any difference with electric
heat.
The oven on an electric stove is
made on the fireless cooker principal.
There is no circulation of heat in it,
and in this way, the food is Drowned
uniformly on both the top and bot
tom. Cakes and pastries do not dry
out, and, in cooking meats, the lack
Of circulation of heat causes it not to
shrink. In cooking a four pound
roast in an electric stove oven and in
a gas oven, there is a pound less
shrinkage in the former.
Meats may be broiled in the oven
from the broiler elements. The lack
of odors and greasy fumes keep the
stove from becoming greasy and dirty
ae well as make the food more appe-
ti2ing There is a separate cooking
meter which makes the electrity heat
IS chcan as gas or oil and cheaper
than wood or coal. There is a recep-
ta"'e in the side Of the stove to which
an electric iron or toastcr may be at
tached,
