Something to
Think Abour
THE JOB AND THE MAN
BY F. A. Walker

u VERY man and woman should
- have a budget. Their should be-
a businesslike apportionment, of whaI
you earn, to your needs and youi
tastes.
You will have to assign so much to
rent. 1t used to be % per cent in
the ordinary income. Now it averages
more.
There will have to be an allowance
for food and clothing, for the doctor
and the dentist, for amusement and
pleasure, for necessary travel and for
unnecessary extravagances, for we all
have our extravagances.
All these things will be promptly
listed and thoroughly looked after.
We shall probably be particularly lib
eral with those items which mean the
least in the sum total of human hap
piness.
The last thing that will be thought
about, and the most scanty allowance
will be made for it, will be the devel-
opment and betterment of our minds.

 The fact has been called to the at tention of Chief of Police Hayes that the sidewalks about the town, includ- ing Main street, are not clean of snow within a reasonable time after a storm. Negligence in leaving snow on the walk not only leaves the prop erty owner liable for any mishap that may occur through his carelessness, but also leaves him subject to arrest with fine as penalty.

 Two railroad detectives visited town on Sunday with the intention of raid ing the gang who hang around the depot. However Sunday was such a bad day that proceedings were post poned until the weather would allow a larger crew to gather and to better repay the police for their efforts.

Any one found guilty of loafing around the depot is transgressing on private property and is liable to ar rest.

s1 DAY ON SATURDAY.

On Saturday the merchants will I join in offering their goods at reduced
 prices te come within the. limit of one
 hundred cents. In the stores where the articles ate too large to range within one dollar a cash discount is
 to be allowed on every purchase
 amounting to over one dollar. Va rious combinations of articles are found listed with a dollar as the pur-
 chasing price. Cards are to be dis
 played in the windows of the dealers
 who are offering the sale. An advan tageous method of using the discounts
 offered is to take the advertisement
 and write a list of articles that are necessary and find where they can be
 bought at the cheapest price. And
 then to buy: them on Saturday of this
 week. Anoticable feature of the lists
 offered at large reductions is that the
 merchandise is not of last seasons
 supply but are all up to date and sea- sonable goods. Mostly spring supplies
 and staple articles. On the last dollar
 day, teams, automobiles and trolleys
 brought shoppers to the Springs and
 carried back to their homes many satisfied customers who had obtained more for a dollar than at any sale be- fore held here and the merchants say this sale Is to be bigger and better than the other.

Washington, January 11,-(Speciaf1 Following the defeat of the motion of Senator Lenroot that the Muscle Shoals bill be recommitted in the Senate to- day, Senator Underwood predicted that the measure, containing the life of the north Alabama projects, would be put through the Senate.
 The victory was scored by margin of only one vote Senator Capper Of Kansas. famous as a friend of the farmer and understood to have been irrevocabiy committed in favor of the bill. quietly retired from the chamber and thus lodged the roll call. The same is true regarding Senator La Toilette. Senator Gore, democrat. mdn- Der of the committee which reported the bill. aud regarded always as friendly to the measure, voted with the republicans It is thought that he took this action to show in stil an other way his pique as result of his defeat in the Oklahoma primary.
 T think said Senator Underwood. that the bill will now go through the Senate. The opposition, in my opin- ion, has polled it's greatest strength. or course, there may be filibuster and there will be strenuous opposition in the House. But we have scored a victory today beyond all peradven- ture"

WHY PLANS ABANDONED

Washington January H-(Special)-l is learned on authority that President elect Harding was moved to order an abandonment of the extensive plans for his inauguration through the following reasons
 l. He has been opposed from the be- ginning to making his ascension to power an occasion for the duplication of the old Roman triumphs. Dispatches in this correspondence Sunday declared he had yielded his convention only on the earn est solicitation of Washington merchants and sportsmen.
 2 Dr. Sawyer, personal physician to Senator Harding, requested quotation of prices on three rooms in a prominent Washington hotel for the inaugural day and week. The hotel offered to reserve the rooms for $100 per day for seven days. pr. Sawyer showed the offer to Mir. Harding. He was deeply incensed, and cancelled all arrangements for the festivities. Save the convivialists ana merchants of Washington, the action or Senator Harding has given great satis- faction to everybody. The republicans are delighted that he is willing to forego the pomp and ceremony of office. The great capital of the .triumphant parade, are disarmed. The Hearst newspaper or Washington moves this afternoon that the celebration be held informally, not withstanding the opposition of MT. Haru- ing It is not believed, however, that it's scheme will succeed.

ALIEN FLOODS
 UNPROVEN, CLAIM Testimony Regarding Anti Immigration Bill Fails to
 Prove Emergency
By Associated Press

Washington, January 11-Testimony taken by the Senate immigration con- mittee in hearings on the Johnson bill prohibiting immigration for one year ha 5 failed to prove the existence of an emer- gency, according to senators who to- right analysed the evidence submitted by more than 20 witnesses in the past week. They declared the charge that millions of aliens would flood the United States, increase unemployment and create economic chaos" had not been proven.
 One member of the immigration com mittee predicted that inasmucb as the Johnson bill admittedly was ans emer-' gency measure designated to meet a temporary need--that of checking the alleged flood--it probably would be side tracked until such time as the emergency could be proven Other committee mem bers expressed similar opinions, saying that the present immigration laws would remain unchanged for the present or until the committee was able to draft permanent immigration 1egslaton
