TAG DAY SATURDAY
FOR CITY LIBRARY
Everybody Will Get Tagged Tomor.
row; Funds Used For Buy
ing New Books.

A strong working organization for
the approaching Tag Day on Satur,
day for the benefit of the Paris
Public Library has been perfected
representative young ladies and ma
irons of the town will seek to tag"
every person in the down town dis
tricts Saturday, while committees in
cars win canvass the residential sec
tions to sell for 81 each, library
cards, emitting the holder to a
years membership with all library
privileges, etc.
New books are needed at the
city library. Many old volumes are
worn out from use and age. Many
recently published editions should
adorn the shelves. There are not
enough worth while books in the
library to supply the public reading
demand, which is a large one, espe-
cially among the children.
All Tag Day funds will go to
purchase new books Every one on
Saturday will have an opportunity
of contributing either small OF
large amount. Many will want to be
tagged without the asking
Miss Pattye Heffernan will be
chairman of the Tag Day library
movement in the West End, and
has chosen a number of assistants.
Miss Willie Wilson has been assigned
the l.. & N. station, and the West
End business section.
Some of those who will assist in
the uptown activity are: Mrs A. f..
Rison, Mrs. M. NJ. Phillips, Mrs. Ruth
Frazier, Mrs, w. T. Warren, Jr.,
Mrs. Charlie Watkins, Mrs C. S.

Ne.U Freight Rate ,
OF Much Benefit
Paris Merchants

Paris merchants, wholesale and re-
tail, dealing in anything received by
freight will be benefited by the rul-
ing of the Interstate Commerce Com
mission, just made and effective on
January 21st, 1922,
In brief the ruling gives Paris
the same classification of freight
rates as enjoyed by Memphis, Vicks-
burg, Natchez and the classified
river towns in the Mississippi
delta. Heretofore Paris Jackson and
other interior points have been pay
ing a higher rate,due to a different
classification based on mo river"
competition.
The new adjustment and equaliZa-
ton of rates efiecting local busi-
ness ranges from per cent to 30
per cent less than present rates, and
means the saving of thousands of
dollars annually to receivers of
freight here. AS an example, on
street oil for the City of Paris the
new rate is 3O1a cents against the
old rate of 5S cents

INITIAL FUND FOR
HOSPITAL in CITY
rs Per Cent Proceeds Christmas Seal
Sale Used For Hospital
In Paris.

''Be life saver" Purchase lib
eral stocks this year of Christmas
Red Cross Seals, which cost only
a penny each. Let every letter or
package mailed from your home or
business between now and the holi-
days bear one of these little emb-
lens OF life rescue that finance the
fight against tuberculosis over the
entire United States and that pro-
mote an educational and tubercular
relief campaign that compiled fig
ures show results in a saving in
this country each year of 10000
lives.
Organized sale of 1921 Red Cross
Christmas seals will begin in Paris
Monday Again Paris women have
answered the call to service, and
the Kings Daughters have under
taken the sale of the seals this year,
after several other organizations in
the town refused for various reasons
to accept the work, which is in
charge of the Tennessee Anti-Tuber-
culosis Association, with headquarters
at Nashville, and the sale campaign
OF which this year is backed by
the four leading women's organiza-
tions in the state, the Federation
of Women's Clubs, the Parent-Teach
er Association, the w. G. I. L., and
the League of Women Voters.
Mrs. w. j. Holman heads the
general committee in charge of the
local drive. A corps of competent
workers from the Kings Daughters
and other women's organizations of
the town will assist in the campaign.
It is the intention to not limit the
sale of the seals to Paris, but to
extend ii over the county, which will
also be organized for the work.
Three-fourths of the money pro-
cured from the sale of these merry
little Red Gross Christmas seals will
be kept at home, and will be used
by the Kings Daughters on their
proposed new hospital, in which it
is planned to include a tubercular
ward. This means that seventy-five
cents of every dollars worth of seals
one buys, will go to an appealing
and glorious home charity.
The goal for Henry County in the
Christmas seal campaign has been
hitched to the stars, and it is hoped
to sell five hundred dollars worth
of the seals here. This years seals
are attractive, representing jolly
old Santa Claus with a girl and boy
in each arm, and bearing the usual
merry Christmas and Healthy New
Year inscriptions. They will adorn
any package or letter, and any such
mailed during the holidays is in
complete WITHOUT them.

Floating Dredge Let Thru
Railroad Embankment
On Sunday.
Steel Span 81 Feet Long
To Be Constructed
At Railroad.
Big Sandy Drainage Work
Now Eighty Per Cent
Completed.

Passing through the railroad EN-
bankment last Sunday, the big float,
ing dredge working on the main
canal of, the Big Sandy drainage
ditch is nearly in sight of the end
of its goal-being only about miles
from the end of the long 23 mile
main ditch, and it will only be the
duration of few weeks now until
the other dredge on the West Sandy
runs out its line to connect up.
According to Richard Bruce, en-
gineer in charge of the work for
w r. Ewing, Inc, dredging contrac
tors of Chicago, the whole project
is now over so per cent completed.
This means that about rs miles OF
the SO miles of bitches and canals
has been completed. The main ditch
was begun at point just east of
Hollow Rock Junction, crossing
through the northeast part of Henry
County and runs out about 8 miles
beyond Big Sandy on the north side
of the l.. e. n. railroad. The exact
length of the big main canal is 22.5
miles, the various lateral or tribu-
tary bitches aggregating length of
70 miles. Four of these laterals
on the south end cross the N. & c.
railway tracks between the junction
and Paris, and two of them Including
the long West Sandy lateral run out
near VanDyke.
Thousands of acres of fertile
Henry County lands will be reclaimed
in the construction and completion
of the district canals, the entire area
embracing, on tangent lines run,
about 80 miles in length and Is
miles in width
At the point where the dredge-
boat passed through the l.. e. N. rail-
road just south of Big Sandy Sun
day, a steel span 81 feet in length
will be constructed. AT this point
dug, which is only one of the points
where the main bed of the old river
has been left to get the ditch on a
tangent or straight line. The old
river at this particular point is 1000
feet northeast of the new canal
bed DUST nine hours and two min
utes was required for the dredge-
boat to work it's way through the
railroad embankment, and railroad
traffic was suspended during this
time--necessitating detouring fast
passenger train No. 103 via Dickson
to Paris, and incidentally it was the
only passenger train schedule inter-
fered with in the perfection of the
work.
In addition to the, two large float
ing dredges that are working on the
Big Sandy canals, there is another
caterpillar ground dredge working on
some of the smaller laterals. Accord
ing to Engineer Bruce, the entire
project will be completed within the
coming year.

Deeds Exchanged With Nat
Porter Taking Over
Property.
Thirteen Thousand Square
Feet Ground At Once
Available.
Filling of Gulley Already
Started; Complete By
Coming Spring.

AS a second step in the providing
of hitching yard in the city and
relieve the present badly overcrowded
erty deeds were exchanged this week
whereby the City of Paris takes over
the property in the rear of the w.
N. Porter Auto Co. garage on Brewer
street.
= The property acquired from Mr..
Porter begins at point so feet
east of the southwest corner of the
colored Masonic Hall on S. Brewer
street, runs north SIS feet to Wash.
ington street, thence east with Wash,
ington street 157 feet, thence south
SO feet thence west 157 feet to the
point of beginning. The strip in
cludes the lot on which the ware
house in the rear of the Porter
garage is located, and this building
is TO be removed within so days.
In addition to this $685. square
feet of ground for the hitching yard,
the city will also have the use of
the strip of ground laid out as the
East Marginal Alley which runs
across from Washington street to
Wood street, and will Immediately
acquire the 50-foot lot fronting on
Washington street that belongs to
Andy VanDyke, which altogether
will give some 1900 square feet
of ground, which will be all that
is needed for the present, after the
ILLS are graded, and the entire area
leveled Cup.
The work of filling the big gulley
on Washington street hill has al
ready been commenced, and will be
completed by early spring, when it
is proposed to have the new hitch
ing grounds in shape for full use.
1t is also proposed to provide an
entrance to the grounds from Brewer
street at Wood street by acquiring
the 55-foot lot adjoining the Wilson
Butt warehouse, and constructing a
fill back of the blacksmith shop
and other buildings facing Brewer
street. The city council committee
which has the project in charge will
report on this at the next council
meeting, it being proposed to ac,
quire this 55-foot lot in exchange
for the portion of the city street as
occupied by the WilsonButt ware
house. This building is owned by
the Paris Milling Company and is
practically all located in the city
street.
In exchange for the property ac-
quired from Mr.. Porter the city
decided to him the narrow strip of
ground occupied by the extension to
the garage building which was made
some two years ago, and which it
developed was aiso located in the
city street.
1t is understood the city has given
up the idea of obtaining any prop
erty beyond the VanDyke lot facing
on Il. Washington, as it is thought
all the ground needed will be pro
vided in the property otherwise oh
tanned as above, after the work of
filling in has been completed

minus watch and $40 in
money. He was on his way
home from the billiard parlor
with $50 in a wallet in his
hip pocket and $50 in his front
pocket, and had not journeyed
far until he was held up and
relieved of the $50 and also his
watch. The bandit left him
the $50 and skipped.
