yiolators in Marion county and for

Just how much of the $2756

entirely clear, for the detailed

Within a year the United States will

the so-called Parthenon at Regensburg
being merely an adptation of the great
temple. That masterpiece at Athens,
conceived and built by Phidias, the
sculptor, -Ictinus, the architect, and
Pericles, the statesman. is being re-
constructed here in a more enduring
form than was the original
When Tennessee's centennial was
celebrated by an International EXPOSE
ton "a years ago, the directors OF the
fete built in temporary form replica
of the Parthenon. 1t was used to
house the art exhibit of that exposi-
ton.
Nashville people considered it a par
tial qualification to their ambition to
make their city as the Athens of the
South
Structure Was Pleasing
This temporary structure, erected
hastily and with A comparatively small
amount of money left much to be de-
sired in the execution of the delicate
ornamentation and the great number
of statues which had to be recon.
structed from the inadequate draw
ings then in existence. Yet, the gen
eral effect of the cream-colored staff
structure with brilliant colors in the
frieze and gables so overshadowed al
the other buildings that when the
exposition was over the people de
manded its preservation. and it be
cal me shrine to the residents and Wis

Three years ago disintegration had
| progressed to such an extent that tbs

pie, using the method known as thu

by John Early, of Washington, D. c.
who was entrusted with that part o
the work.

for as a result of the labor accom-
plished, cement walks have been laid:
buildings moved and improved wells
drilled; pumping system completed;
and numerous other tasks consum-
mated which have added to the value
of the property 1t would then follow
that very considerable portion of the
labor expense has not been an ex-
pense, but an investment.
Labor is Constructive.
In other words, a certain percent
age of labor costs charged in the
county report to operating expenses,
is properly chargeable to the new
buildings, etc, which would make the
farm show a greater profit than was
shown in the published report.
1t is also pointed out that if the
county had not spent the amounts ii
did in improving the farm for hospital
purposes, the net gain from July, 1917
to Sept. 1, 1921, would have been even
larger than the gain of s2,613 81
showed under the re-classifcation OF
expenditures.
The new report shows in exhibit

penditures by years Exhibit "B"

ceipts and expenses of the farm.
Operating receipts during the period
in which the county has had the man
agement of the farm. total s26,01023
To this amount is added the inventory
taken Sept. 1, 1921, to determine the
grand total of receipts. The inven
tory was taken by ". o. Seaney, coun

and depreciation on implements anC

! gain of S2,613.54 is attained.
One interesting feature of the sale!
and expenditures during 1921 up II

sales total S696.15 more than the farm
expenses. Sales for that period hav,
amounted to s4,096.S0, while expense
