CENSUS TAKERS USE
AEROPLANES

Everything from aeroplanes to
snowshces is being used by the
agents Of Uncle Sam in taging the
1920 census of the United States.
About the only modern method Of
transportation either on, over or
below land or water that has not
been employed in enumerating
Uncle Sans nieces and nephews
seems to be the submarine.
Aeroplanes have come in handy
in enumerating the dwellers on
the islands off the coast of Flori-
da; yacts and rowboats have been
used in the harbors of the country
native canoes have been in demand
among the Hawaiian Islands:
"flivvers" are being used every
where; the tried and trusty mule
tam has carried the census takers
out on the desert regions; and
snowshoes have become the trus-
ted aides of the census gatherers
in the northern states and Alaska.

TURNS RESCUER

In the central part of New
York State, near Oswego, a few
days ago an enumerator making
his rounds on snowshoes arrived
at an isolated farm dwelling only
to find that an ablebodied man
was needed more than census
gatherer IS the man of the FAM
lily had been sick in bed for sew
eral days and the farm animals
were suffering for lack of food
and water. The census man, like
any good nieghbor would, stopped
long enough to do the chores, dig
out paths thru the deep snow and
put things in ship shape order be-
fore continuing his journey.

CAT graf FUR CO.
TO ORGANIZE

On account ofthe present high
fur market, is the cause of the pro
posed organization. Stock will be
sold at par, and on account of the
rigid" enforcement of the profit
eering laws your name as a stock
holder will be kept a secret. The
working plans are as follows:
The object of the company is to
operate a cat ranch.
To start with we will collect one
hundred thousand cats. Each cat
will have IL kittens each year on
an average. The skins will run
from 10c for the white ones to
Toe for the pure black ones. This
will give us Twelve million skins
per year. Which vii average soc
each, or a revenue of about Ten
thousand Dollars per day gross.
We can get men to skin so cats
per day for $500. It will take one
hundred men to operate the ranch.
The net profit win be $9,s00.00 per
day.
We will feed the cats on rats
as we will operate a rats ranch
next door. The rats multiply four
times as fast as the cats.
If we start with one million rats
we will have four rats for each
cat which will be plenty.
We will feed the rats on the
cats that have been skinned, CIV
each rat onefourth of a cat.
1t will be seen that the business
is self supporting from the start.
The cats will ca the rats and the
rats will eat the cats and we will
reap the profits.
You will pease not mention this
to outsiders, as just at this time
there is very decided stand be-
ing taken against profiteering, and
we do not wish to have the i'll will
of anyone.
Hoping to hear from you very
prompt, and believing you will ap
|preciate the opportunity which we
are extending you as a personal
-.and, We remain,
Very truly your,

The American boy is a product
of the American school.
He is at the age then, between
Is and 20 years, when he will
make himself physically strong or
weak, and form the ideals and
habits that go with him thru life.
1t is for this reason that the
United States Health Service has
started campaign in America to
reach all of the boys between the
ages of Is and 20 years and in
terest them in campaign to keep
themselves fit This is not with
an idea of raising the boys to be
soldiers, but because there is one
young man in every three physi-
cally unfit, not only to be a sol
der, but anything else that re-
quires strong, vigorous manhood.
This was revealed when the army
had to reject one man in every
three for physical disability.
Surgeon General Ireland, of the
army, and Surgeon General Brais-
ted, of the Navy, have taken a
very keen interest in this work,
which has the backing of the Y.
M. G. A., churches, welfare or
ganizations, and educators thru
out the United States, and have
sent the following message to the
boys within this age group.

BETTER SRES IN
HAMBLEN COUNTY

Morristown, Tenn. Jan. 81
The temporary organization of
the Hamblen County Council of
agriculture, which is an organi-
zation to promote the economic
and social welfare Of the farmers
of this county, met Saturday NOR
ming and decided to put on a cam
paign to replace every scrub sire
in the county with a purebred
Actual statistics show that the
offspring of pure-bred sire av-
erage sixtyfive percent more in
value than the offspring of a
grade sire when used on the same
class of females This means a
big loss to the farmers of Hamblen
County every year from the use
of scrubs or grade sires. The off
spring of a scrub sire makes much
lowers gains than that of a pure
bred and is worth less per pound.
The use of purebred sire bene-
fits every farmer, whether he
keeps one female or fifty.
The first step in this campaign
is to take a census of all the sires
in the county, including bulls,
boars stations, jacks and rams,
and to classify them as grades or
-breds. This census will en-

able US to see what communities
and what men are using scrubs
and to concentrate our efforts on
them. After the census is taken,
it is planned to carry on the cam
paign by newspaper publicity,
community meetings, personal Wis
its to the owners Of the scrubs
and their neighbors, and by every
other means possible. It is plan
ned to furnish the best possible
market for the scrub and to as
sist the owner in securing a pure
bred to take its place.
One or more men have been ap-
pointed in each community in the
county to take this census of the
males. Where only one man was
appointed, it is expected that he
will enlist the help of one or two
of his neighbors if he needs it.
Another meeting has been
called for Saturday, Feb. 7th., in
the Board of Trade Hall in Nor
ristown at ten a. m. At this time
the census will be complete and
plans for the campaign will be
outlined.
All those interested in better
livestock in Hamblen County are
urged to be present.

In general, a mans mental and

largely the result of the influences
which have nodded him before he
reaches the age of military servic
and it can be improved afterward
with difficulty and usually only
by means which start him deeply.
Heretofore the formation of his

My dear Surgeon General Blue:
| have great pleasure in en-
dorsing your movement to arouse
the boys between Is and 20 years
of age to a full sense of what they
are to themselves and the country
My message to them is:
:? "The habits of a lifetime are
formed by what you think and do
each day as young men; by the
companies you choose and friends
you make"
Strong bodies, firm purposes
noble ambitions are your fortune
If you throw away your health by
evil ways and soil the purity of
mind and body for the amusement
and excitement of the moment,
you are like a man spending his
capital instead of investing it."

Some talk of an automobile club
for Granger County has been
heard, and the question which we
wish to ask you is, Should Grain
ger County have an automobile
club?
Every citizen Of the county is
certainly in favor of good roads,
and that is the principal object OF
an automobile club. We wish to
give you briefly what on automo-
bile club can accomplish in the
county, and then ask you to an
swer the question.
"The object Of the automo-
bile clubs all over the ronutry
is to promote the building OF
goods roads hard surfaced and
permanent, cooperate with
county and state officials in
securing adequate legislation
which embraces traffic regu-
from double taxation, and the

paign which applies to both
the motorist and the pedes-
trian. But above all they
are interested in securing the
best highways that can be
built in each and every coun.
ty thruout the different states
for without good roads the
full value of the motor car as
a vehicle of travel and trans
portaion can never be real
lied.
Unfortunately, the belief
seems to prevail in certain
sections that automobile clubs
are essentially social organi-
cations, looking to the devel-
opment of nothing but recre-
alton features such as pleas
ure trips in touring cars, joy
riding and kindred pursuits;
an erroneous impression for
the automobile has long ago
taken it's place among the es-
sential carriers in the fields
of commerce, so that today
the thrift and progressiveness
of any section or community
may be measured by its num-
Der Of automobiles.

PLAN OF CAMPAIGN

The Educational campaign eni-
braces four lines of propaganda
covering on the home.
Ist-Thru the schools A SER
les of leaflets addressed to the
parents will be distributed to the
pupils with instructions to carry
them home. The first of these
leaflets addressed to the mother,
tells her in child language of .
message from Uncle Sam. Then the
Home Circle Thrift Club idea, is
developed in way that appeals to
the family.
A week later the child takes
home a second leaflet to the fa-
ther called message to father.
And this appeals to tn ehead of the
family from a mans standpoint.
A few days later third leaf
let is addressed to both thefather
and the mother is delivered by
the child and this calls for the or
ganization of home Circle Thrift
Club on the following Friday ev-
ening or some other evening that
is convenient.
For the convenience of parents
stamped postal card is enclosed
with the last leaflet. This
simply states that the club has
been formed in the home and will
secure for the family some inter
esting literature including sug-
gestions for the family budget
and illustrations showing how
other people have developed the
idea of thrift.
No effort is to be made to Sc
cure any report Of the Home Circle
Thrift Club beyond the fact that
lit has been organized. For it is
is not desired to pry into the fam
lies affairs.

this work is going on thru the
schools the press will be regularly
informed Of the progress of the
campaign and will do its full du-
ty in bringing home to the people
