CHRISTMAS SEASON
MOST ENJOYABLE
1t Was a Peaceful Christmas
and Bright Sunny Day,
and Joy Seemed Ev-
erywhere.

Christmas passed very pleas
antly and quietly in Sequatchie.
The day was ideal, clear and cool.
The best of order prevailed, and
everywhere there was a spirit of
friendliness and goodwill. Many
citizens of the town were awak-
ened about 500 a. m. by the
singing of Silent Night. "
Some on awakening. it is said,
thought they were in heaven.
but on investigation it was found
that the voices were not those of
angels but of a few of their NOR
tai friends, who imbued with the
spirit of Christmas had decided
upou this idea as a fitting way to
begin the celebration of the day.
1t was pronounced by some to be
"the sweetest thing ever hap
pened in Sequatchie," and the
singers are very appreciative of
the compliments paid them.
Family reunions were numer-
Gus and altho' the Xmas tur-
key was present on few tables
owing to high price and scarcity
of the time-honored bird, there
there was plenty of other good
things to make up the deficit.
Parties among the young folks
were enjoyed, one being given at
the home of J. C. Martin Christ

MEMBER OF POULTRY CLUB
Exhibits at Fairs Stimulate Parents

Also In Rabbits and Pigeons on the
Farm or In the City, Says Crane.

Little Stella McLaln, of Green coun-

Of poultry and eggs this year. This Is
more money than some teachers re-
ceive for years work.
Little Miss McLain is a member OF
Green county poultry club, whose
members have received instruction
from Miss Mable Moore, home demon
stration agent. Her club, with many
othe.s, has exhibits at the East Ten
nessee Division Fair, consequently
those parents who were interested to
have their children enter Il profitable
work while they are young, brought
them to the fair and to see the results
accomplished by club members.
County home demonstration agents
Of the Upper East Tennessee counties

paign among the boys and girls clubs
OF their several counties, to encourage
the production and improve the quality

On Long Hike.

Nell Walker, of Boston, Mass,
a walker by name and nature,
who has been in declining health
for several months, decided that
a long hike would be beneficial
and started out on a walking trip
from Boston to the Western
coast some few weeks ago. After
a long hike of some 1000 miles,
she arrived in Springfield Mon
day afternoon, dressed in a plain
walking suit, heavy shoes and
khaki hat. From her general
appearance her long walk has
been a great benefit. After AN
inspection of our fast city, Miss
walker proceeded on her long
trip westward.
She averages abont 20 miles
each day and spends the night in
the oxygen, which, she stated. was
the most beneficial part of her
health ip.-SpringfieId Sun.

Chasing Death.

Would you feel aggrieved if
we were to tell you that you are
chasing death every day in the
year?
But you are-we all are-for
this is a death chasing age in
which we live.
We are rushing through life at
too rapid a speed in our efforts
to keep pace with a gaIlopina
world.
The beacon light which we
follow is glazing, binding and
blighting. 1t is the light of gold
and more gold.
It fascinates, and charms and
demoralizes its victims until
manly resistance to its sinister
influences vanishes in our crav-
ing for the inordinate pleasures
which wealth alone can give.
We stunt our bodies, stultify
our minds, and peril our souls in
our insatiate greed for more.
The pace we travel is one OF
madness, and the beacon we fol-
low is lighted by the hand OF
premature death.
Life and the power to think
and act were given to us for a
purpose, but that purpose was
not one destructive to mind, and
body, and soul.
The vitality within our human
frames is limited and when we
strain it beyond the point Of
wisdom we pass the pinnacle OF
existence and enter upon the de-
cline Of life
By defying the laws of nature
we bring death UNNECESSARILY
nearer by acts wholly our own.
The beacon light is golden,
but it draws US steadily onward
and downward.

Gasoline Sabslite.

SeVenty-fve cent gasoline is a
possibility of the next few years,
according to one authority, who
says that Investigations in all
parts of the world have demon
strated that adequate quantities
of pure gasoline hydrocarbons no
longer exist.
He believes that that the fut-
ture welfare Of the motor indus
try depends upon the perfection
of an engine capable of economic
transmission of power direct
from crude petroleum or a light
efficient storage battery. If the
price of gasoline becomes pro-
hibitive it is probable that there
are other solutions of the problem
besides the two advanced by this
expert. Something to take its
place which will not necessitate
the abandonment of the millions
of motors now in nse would seem
the most likely development,
Scientist have long prophesied
that a method of producing al
chol for this purpose gives pro-
mise of ultimate success. The
internal combustion motor is too
essential a part of our scheme of
things to permit its being rend-
cred useless.
Seventy-fve-cents gasoline will
hasten the development of SUBJ
stitute mark the undoing of
all the automotive progress that
has been made in the last quarter
century. Toledo Blade.

Farmer, II Children,
Has Funds in 8 Banks

Sunbury, Pa.-With seventeen
children I'm his family, Delmar
r. Campbell, a farmer in Lower
Augusta township, Northumber-
land county, has money IN eight
banks.
He testified to that amazing
fact before Judge Cummings in
defense OF a suit his wife
brought for an accounting Of
farm income during the last
twelve years. He declared IN
der oath that he paid all the
taxes on the place, clothed and
fed the family and paid for
property improvements. Law
yers say the bank deposits total
more than $4,000.
The Campbells have been mar
rIed more than thirty years. For
several years they have lived
In the same house and eaten at
the same table, but do not speak.
Husband and wife have each
employed high-priced lawyers.
and. inasmuch as both sides will
have to take their expenses out
of the family fund, no matter
who wins, both must lose, one
of the lawyers said.

BARTER IN AUSTRIA
Medium Of Exchange as Paper
Crowns Lose Value.
Peasant Demands Something More
Valuable Than Paper Currency
for His Products.

Vienna.-Only Americans of a gen.
Grafton ago who traded farm products
at the crossroads store for everything
from shoes to sugar can realize the
extent Of barter in Austria today.
: With the country flooded with cheap
money, the peasants stockings and
bank accounts fat with currency and
legislation impending for a compul-
sorry levy on fortunes, the paper crown
virtually is spurned by those who pro-
duce the necessities of life.
For eggs or butter, cheese or white
flour, fat geese and ducks, pork prod
ucts and all the things that the Aus
TRAN city dweller must do without,
the peasant wants something more
valuable than the paper constantly
turned out by the AustrO-H Hungarian
banks.
PrOdigious offers Of crowns fail
where a linen shirt, silk stockings
(even much darned), rugs, musical in
struments, shoes and such things bring
results.
The story Of how the bOurgeoisie and
poor nobility of Vienna have part
ed with their wardrobes and furniture,
their pianos and carpets, for food, has
been often told. Now everyone Is
getting back to first principles In
trade.
Visiting a retired officer in his lit
tie country place the correspondent
saw IT work. The officer could not
pay 500 crowns a pair for gloves for
a wife and three daughters. But he
had-three rOebuck hides from the ami
mails he had shot this season. He
exchanged them for two dressed hides.
The village glover made them into
gloves, taking in payment cider, NUT
ton and some veal from the little
farm.
Then came the problem Of stock
ings, almost unpurchasable In Aus
tria. There were IL sheep grazing
on the place. Sheared they yielded
enough wool to exchange for yarn suf-
ficient to knit the family hosiery for
the coming winter:
The apple crop Of this tiny estate
has been mOrtgaged for grain to a
neighbor who has no fruit and the
miller will take his pay in toll.
The host who entertained In the lit
tie cottage now his home, filed with
