Hill Reunion,

On Friday, August 18th, most of the
Hill connection met the home of Mr.
and Mrs. T. F. Hill on the Pulaski
pike and enjoyed day of reunion.
Cne of the most important features
of the event was the beautiful repast
around which the guests assembled
at the noon hour, and which was beau
tifully decorated for the occasion.
Many games were INDUCED in which
were enjoyed by the old as well as
the young. Pictures of the group
were taken as this was a larger as
scmblage of the members of the fami-
ly than had ever been together on
any previous occasion. ..
Those present were: Mrs. Mary
Hill, Mr.. and Mrs. r. F. Hill and fami-
ly, Mr.. and Mrs. B. G. 'Hfil and fami.
", and Mr.. and Mr.. anda Mrs. l.. L..
Lee and family, of Stiversville; Mrs.
G. w. West. of Mesquite. Texas; Mr.
and Mrs E. ID. Jones and family and
Miss Julia Hartman, of Nashville;
Mr.. and Mrs. L. C. Wiley and family,
of Columbia Mrs. J. T. Dunnivant,
Of Pulaski: Abner McQuigg, of Sti-
versville, and Mr.. and Mrs. A H.
Smith and family, of McCains.
All enjoyed the pleasure of the day
TO the fullest, and the only regret was
that these reunions are not enjoyed
mere regularly.

Chicago. Ill, June 26.-May sta.
tistics reflect plainly a decline ir

of the American Contractor. Re-
turns from 1872 cities give an esti-
mated valuation of only Sl2s.370.-

nearly $500, 100000 from 200 cities

breaking 1919 months. but there is
no indication of a June peak this
year: possibly this may have beer
passed in April. 1t has. unless thf
railroads can be made to function
says The Contractor.
The decrease from April activity
is more noticeable in the larger
cities and the sudden letting dowr
in issuance OF building permits Is
attributed to the ever increasing
chaos in transportation. The aver
age value of permits per city fol

new BUILDINGS !.
DEMANDBRISK
| Construction, However, Not
Sufficient to Meet Hous-
ing Famine.

''rhe demand for new buildings
continues unabated in all parts OF
the country" says a statement is
sued by s. w. Straus. of s. W. Straus
e. Co.. but the building industry
is proceeding at such q pronounced
that II Is to be doubted
IL present activities are OF sufficient
magnitude to prevent an ever-in-
creasing deficit in housing facilities.
Lack of transportation facilities,
freight embargoes and the car
shortage comprise the principal de-
terring influences in the building
situation in the country at present
Builders and architects generally
are able to find labor to do the
work and they are able to purchase
a reasonable amount Of material
but they find themselves seriously
Handicapped in transporting mate
rials from the plants or yards of
the manufacturer to the site of the
operation.
"a tremendous congestion of
freight Is reported along all import
ant transportation lines. which II
will take some weeks, at least, under
the most favorable circumstances to
Iglear up. Moreover, there is no
Immediate likelihood OF relief for
the car shortage as the depleted
supply cannot be quickly restored
In addition, there Is an urgent need
for more cars for the transportation
of foodstuffs, and we will soon be
in the midst of the crop-moving
season. Midsummer is upon US. and
with all the adverse factors referred
to. one cannot feel that the present
building season will witness any
great reduction in the housing
shortage of the country as a result
of a slowing-up process which has
been brought about through factors
entirely foreign to the building in
dustry"

TAX REDUCTION
UNLIKELYIN US.
Government War Debts to
Be Paid Before Taxes
Drop.

Imperative expenditures Of the
United States government for some
years to come hold out no hope for
any considerable and immediate re-
duction in taxes.
The situation is clear to anyone
who will take the trouble to go
into 1t. The nation has in its
liability column certain fixed charges
that must be met. Business men
who have studied the situation see
this clearly.
One OF the best analyses made re-
been presented by DR.. Edward 3.
Rosa of the United States Bureau
of Standards. DR.. Rosa calls atten-
tion to the fact that of a total of
more than $500. .o00. 900 contained in
regular supply and deficiency bills
92s per cent was set aside to meet
obligations arising from the war.
The remaining 7.2 per cent was
for: Public works, 3 per cent: primary
governmental functions. 3.2 per cent
and research. education and develop
ment work / per cent
Expenditures for wars must con-
tinue until wars debts are paid. 1t
is unlikely that the people of the
country will demand reduction of
funds for the army and navy to the
extent of leaving the nation un-
prepared for future wars. Large
lcuts in civil expenditure would not
reduce the total budget to any con-
siderable extent.
II is plain, therefore. that taxes
must remain high. The task of Con-
gress and the people who pay the
bills is to make the taxes as scien-
tific and equitable as possible with
view always to ease of admins
tration and collection.

REALTORS DENY
AUCTION RUMOR
Installment Homes Not to

Real estate men have little fear
that houses purchased on the
monthly payment plan will be
turned back on them during the
next few months. Purchases which
have been made in the past few
years were by people who really
wanted places to live and they show
no tendency to get rid of them. They
are meeting payments regularly ac-
cording to realtors.
Charles W. Fairfax. of the firm
of Stone and Fairfax, said that peo-
pie lare meeting their payments on

asldng 10 see some diamonds, he told
a story of his party having their dia-

nice stone. valued somewhat over five
numbered dollars and asked that Il be
sent TO Bark River, express G. o. ID.
He then walked out, after making a
small deposit on the stone.
Mr.. Tegge scented no evil intentions

him and returned the diamond which
he sent. at the same time relating
