the address given them or could not find
the home until they considered it too
late for a call.
In this connection Captain ]. V. The

troupe, said prior to his departure that
number of the boys got cold feet" at
the last minute, while several others
could not locate the address given each

companied the party here and seemed to
enjoy themselves to the limit The
ladies of the Women's Council were
somewhat put out at the antics of the
weather, which curtailed their tentative
program to a marked degree. They were
booked to have taken the boys for a
trip to the Salt Mines early Tuesday
afternoon and entertain them with re-
ception from five TO seven p. m. The
reception portion Of the program was
more than programmed, but the trip to
the Salt Mines would indeed have added
to their pleasure. The tentative bail
game between Lloyd Porters protege5,
the high school ball players, and the
soldiers also was called off because of
wet grounds.
However, the officers and soldiers
were unit in declaring their visit here
complete success as far as hospitality
is concerned, although the weather
wyeaked havoc with the gate receipts foz
the Unsectaran Aid Society's benefit.
Frank Noel, Manager of the Chamber
of Commerce, under whose auspices the
entire program was arranged, was de-
lighted with the manner in which the
Women's Council took hold Of the affair
and made it the real success it proved to
be. This, Mr.. Noel says, is the spirit ot
cooperation so necessary to growing

COST is HIGHER
Than PREVIOUSLY
Bids for Material Difficult to

Much New Paving Is Needed
by City.

work on the city streets, whether
new pSvements or repairs, will cost
taxpayers OF Memphis fully twice as
much THIS year as similar work three
" TOUR years ago. For three years
Iltue work has been done on city
SsSrests, except most necessary repairs.
Inc street department would like to
nave at least million dollars to spend
thls year. That amount will not be
atallable, but plans under consideration
eau Tor expenditure Of more than half
that sum.
The engineering department has had
uiIIlcuity IN securing bids on many
classes of street material, as the de-
mand is SO heavy that dealers do not
care TO tie themselves UP with con-
tracts for future delivery, such as the
city demands
A contract will be made for refined
tar and asphalt, although the cost will
be far In excess Of previous prices. Bids
received last week on asphalt ran in
one Instance above $40 a ton. hut a
contract will probably be made at a
price slightly more than half that; al
though last year asphalt was bought
at $l5 ton. The city win operate

Many Streets Repaired.
Other material for which contracts
were awarded Tuesday include cement,
gravel, crushed stone, vitrifted pipe,
stone curb and cutters, and lumber; pro
yided bids submitted a week ago were
acceptable.
Considerable new paving begun last
year or early in the present year, is
being completed. Gayoso avenue from
Main to Fourth, has been finished Lin
Gen from Front to Third will have been
completed within few days, and the
work on three or four streets in the
eastern, section of the city is almost
finished. Beale avenue is to be re-
paved from Main to Fourth, as soon
as the Memphis Street railway has laid
new track.
The proposed extension of Third street
from Union avenue through to Beale, is
probably the most important project in
the downtown district The street must
be cut through private property and the
right of way has not yet been ar
ranged for from all the property own
ers. 1t will probably be the middle of
summer before the work can be begun.
1t is hoped that the city may obtain
the right of way without condemnation
proceedings.
The new street will not only enhance
the value of property, but will give /,
through north and south street from
the northern city limits to Rayburn
boulevard and Calhoun avenue, which
will relieve traffic congestion on Main
and Second streets.
