week, the brick work will be begun
next week and the buildings will
now speedily near completion, being
ready for service possibly by October

The building, which is being erect
ed at cost of $4,000 to replace
the structure lost by fire in the
early spring of 1920, will be abso-
lutely fireproof, with concrete roof
brick and steel sides, and massive
steel doors. Most of the. concrete
work, including the. concrete pits,
has been completed, and the edificc
is rapidly assuming the form of an

Paper In Support
Rye For Chancellor

The following editorial, captioned
"EXGoy, Rye" appeared in an issue
Of the Columbia Herald, of which
j, /. Finney is editor, one day this
week:
Ex-Governor Tom c. Rye is a can
didate for chancellor on his division
to fill the vacancy caused by the ap-
pointment of Chancellor Ross 10 be
federal Judge This office is thor
oughly in keeping with the dignified,
honest, sincere character of Ex-Gov.
Rye. He is admirably suited for it.
Like the new chief justice of the
United States Rye is better fitted for
a judicial office than for a political
office, although he made a most cred.
itahle record as governor for two
terms. The Democrats of that divis-
ion should nominate the ex-governor
and he ought to be elected without
opposition. 1t would have been an
exceedingly graceful thing if Gov.
Taylor had appointed the ex-gover-
nor when the vacancy occurred Tom
Rye is clean, honest, courageous and
upright. He would adorn the office
of chancellor and if elected will prob
ably have life time job. He is a
poor man: he might remain forever
in office and he would remain poor
He has no love OF money. He is
patriotic to the core and The Herald
will be disappointed il the good peo-
pie of his division do not make him
their judge of chancery-Columb

NARROW ESCAPE
FOR miss LEWIS
Resting Well, Although
Considerably Bruised
From Accident.

Run down by an automobile,
knocked to the ground, caught be
tween the front wheels of the ma
chine and dragged distance OF
twelve or fifteen feet before the
car could be stopped, Miss Grace
Lewis had narrow escape from
death Tuesday afternoon when she
was struck by a Ford automobile
driven by Mrs. A. II. Mize at the
corner of Washington and Poplar
streets. She was removed, uncon-
scious, to the office of DIR. George
McSwain, and was later carried to
her home on Washington street
where she is now recovering, and
will likely be out again in few
days. No bones were broken, but
she suffered severe wounds about
the face and head and numerous
bruises about the body
Miss Lewis, who is member of
the Partisan staff, had just left the
office for her home at the close OF
the day. Mrs. Mize, starting her
car in front of the Hartsfield d Mize
store, turned sharply into Poplar
street Just as Miss Lewis started
across. The car was travelling at n
moderate rate, being in first speed
just before the gear shift, and be-
fore ii could be brought to a stop
after the impact was several feet
from the crossing whore Miss Lewis
was struck. The car did not pass
over her body. but she was caught
under the front axle and dragged
by the weight OF the machine. This
probably saved her life.
Mrs. Mize collapsed Immediately
after the accident and was taken TO
her home on Poplar street under
care of a physician where she is
now convalescing.
Miss Lewis has been member
of the Partisan editorial staff Tor
the past two years and has many
friends among the patrons of this
paper who will deeply regret the ac'
cident and hope for her a speedy
recovery.

TWo-Thirds.

With the regular biennial regis
tration books for the voters of the
First district, which opened on
Monday, August 8, closing tonight
Thursday, at 8 o'clock, and only
1880 voters registered up to press
hour today, there will have to be
considerable stirring around the re-
manning few hours If all OF the quail
fled voters of Paris are registered.
Out of the number registered there
are about an equal number of men
and women; the registration of the
colored population is rather light.
The eleventh hour rush that Is
usually encountered will no doubt
have a repetition this time. and the
total number of registrants will like
ly grow considerably before the clos
ing of the books tonight.

Harvest Will Show Nearly
Normal Results In
Staple Crops.
Potatoes Will Again Be
Ready for Market in
Abundance.
Northern Section Shows
Better Than Average
Corn and Tobacco

A general summary OF the crop
conditions in Henry County, which
has been gathered from reliable
sources, tends to show that again
this year this community is not going
to suffer the shortages and poor
results of many of her sister coun-
ties. The yield this year is not
going to be very far short of normal.
and in many sections will be just as
good and better than before. This
applies to all staple crops, tobacco,
corn, hay and potatoes. 1t is true
that the backward spring and the
long dry spell were detrimental to
planting in a more or less degree.
and Tor this reason the acreage in
different sections was curtailed, but
the crops which were planted are
showing up in a far more satisfac-
tory manner than was hoped for a
short while back.
The northern section of the coun-
gard than any other in fact, the
tobacco and corn crops, which are
the leaders in that section, are better
this year and will produce more
than an average yield. The tobacco
is a trifle later than usual, due to
the unreasonable conditions al
planting time, but the result accord
ing TO Mr.. Patrick, the county
agent, is going to be highly crafty
ing.
In the other sections of the coun-
ty, according to the same informant,
the tobacco crop is off possibly so
per cent, and the corn crop about
IS per cent below normal This
condition is due to the continued dry
weather which affected these sec,
tons far more than it did the north
responsible for the hay crop pro-
ducing about one-half an average
yield.
There will be a normal production
of potatoes, the off season notwith-
standing, since a greater number of
farmers turned their attention TO
this crop this year than did last, 50
that about an even number OF acres
is the result Only about 60 per
cent of the intended crop was set,
but the result has been highly salts
factory and will repay the trouble
and Inconvenience that was encount-
cred in getting the crop out due
to the dry weather.
1t requires very adverse conditions
to effect a complete crop failure
in Henry County, due to the natural
advantages of the different sections
and also to the practice oil diversifi-
cation which Is growing more appar.
ent here from year to year, 1t is
this, more than any other condition,
which keeps the county in a state
of perpetual independence while

TEACHER COURSE
AT GROVE SCHOOL
Training Course Will Be
Open to Junior and
Senior Students.

Through the efforts of John Rich
ardson, county chairman of educa-
ton and J. H. Bayer, principal of
Grove School, that school is to re-
ceive its pro rata of the state fund
for special training of teachers. Be-
ginning with the opening Oh the fall
term of school "the teachers training
course" will be open to all juniors
and seniors of the school. This
course covers six subjects; English,
plain geometry psychology, civil
government, methods in elementary
subjects, and management and ad-
ministration. The course covers a
period of two years, and may be
covered in one where the pupil has
the proper foundation in other work.
/ Completion of this course entities
the student to a county teachers
certificate without examination, and
credit is given on work done in this
course for graduation from Grove
School as well as on college entrance,
etc.
1t is hoped by Mr.. Bayer that
tnefe VIII De large nunlDer OF lHe
Grove students to take advantage
of this course since it is proven
fact that the greater number of the
graduates from that institution enter
the teaching profession. The work
is similar to that done by the Normal
schools of the state, and since the
county board has gone on record as
favoring its graduates in future APP
pointments in county schools, it
should raise the standard for teach
ers in this county.
Amy student in the county having
two years high school work is ELI
gible to take this course, and may
confine their work to this course
alone.
The course was made possible
through the appropriation of twenty
five thousand dollars by the last
legislature for special teachers train
ing in first class high schools;
throughout the state. Mr.. Bayer
will personally supervise the work
in Grove School.

Church Declines to
Sell Property For
Masonic Building

BY unanimous vote, Sunday
morning, the congregation of the
Presbyterian Church declined the
proposition of the local Masonic
lodge to purchase the vacant lot
next to the church, on 5. Market
street. for the purpose of erecting
a Masonic Temple there. preferring
to keep the lot in the event of a
future necessary extension of the
church, and feeling that while the
proposed building would be of the
most desirable that any structure
would tend to de-appreciate the
value, and the comfort of the
church.
The Masons are therefore in search
of other property on which to erect
their building, and as soon as an
other satisfactory site has been
located and purchased, will go for
ward with the plans for their new
temple.
