WHAT GOOD ROADS MEAN

The following article will show
what good roads mean to commun-
ity:
A total of 1852 automobiles were
counted Sunday passing the corner
of Main and Mountain streets of
Stone Mountain between the hours of
s am. and pm. Sunday, according
to information telephoned to Atlanta
Monday. These averaged four per-
sons to the auto, according to esti-
mates. 1t is thot that the opening
of the new highway from Decatur to

this great increase in automobile

NEW MANUFACTURING CON-
GERM FOR BARBOURVILLF

Some several days ago articles Of
Incorporation were flied establish
ing a new corporation, known as the
Knox Manufacturing Company. with
w. H. Detherage. F. W Golden, n.
c. Detherage and r. n. Jarvis as in
corpoartors. On Thursday, NOvem-
ber end, a meeting of the stockhold-
ers and directors was held at the
law office Of r. n. Jarvis, and the fol
lowing officers were elected: r. n.
Jarvis, president; n. c. Detherage,
vice-president; F. W. Golden, treas
urer and W. H. Detherage, general
manager and secretary.
The company has purchased from
W. II. Detherage the building now
occupied by the Model Bakery on
Main ST.. in this city and a second
story has been added to the building
Thirty-two sewing machines will be
installed within the next twenty days
and the company will begin opera
tion and the manufacturing of over
alls, overall jackets, work shirts and
canvas gloves.
This factory will employ about
thirty-five women and same will be
in charge of Mr.. " A. Cassidy, who
has for twenty years been in charge
of the overall department for j. M.
Robinson-Norton Manufacturing Co.
and heNis one Of the most experience
ed men that could be procured by
this new concern.
We are sincerely glad that this
new manufacturing establishment
has been organized and placed in
our city as it will give employment
for a large number OF girls and wo-
men and is a splendid industry. The
more manufacturing houses in the
city the better the city.
Mountain advocate., 1921-11-04

F. w. Golden, w. H. Detherage
and r. N. Jarvis are interested in
an overalls factory that is being built
over the Model Bakery.
The capacity of the plant will be
200 dozen per week and will give
employment to thirty-six girls, It is
hoped to have the plant in operation
by December LIST. This will make a
nice addition to the payroll OF the
city and we are to be congratulated
on the enterprise of the gentlemen
mentioned.
BY the way, the young men of Bar
bourville are showing what may be
done with nerve. A branch of the
Kiwana Club should be started here.
We have no commercial organization
and the city needs something that
will help bring business here. Bus
iness is something like news-it will
not come unless we go and get 1t.
We need a cannery, broom factory
and a live interest in the advance
ment of our dairy and livestock pro-
duction, as well as in fruit growing
and these things may and should be
promoted by the younger generation
who have faith, imagination, and
those generating forces which make
for the advancement of a town.
The cannery, broom factory and
dairy industry would all help in pro-
noting the cash value of every farm
in the county. They would bring
about a strong demand for better
roads and would make for bigger
and better homes and barns in Knox
County. This prosperity would be
enjoyed by every citizen.

RESPECT FOR Law
rs DEMANDED


A warning to law violators, espec-
tally those who disregard the pro-
visions OF the Volstead law, was
sounded yesterday by Sawyer A.
Smith, Barbourville, Ky, the. new
United States District Attorney at
Covington, when addressing mem-
bers Of the Coyington Rotary Club
on Respect For the Law"
District Attorney Smith declared
that when any set of men undertake
to belittle or refuse to obey the law
they cease to be good citizens and
create a condition which would un-
dermine the entire system of gov
ernment.
what was our privilege to do a
few years ago is prohibited by law
to-day" said Mr.. Smith. What is
regarded thruout the country as a
crime wave is only failure on the
part of certain men to conform to
the changes legislation has wrought.
ut is the duty of every good citi-
zen to respect the law, and IL its
provisions are not good, then our
system of government provides the
remedy thru legislation.
I'm my official position, propose
to enforce the law to the letter as
long as 1t remains on the statute
books" Enquirer, Cincinnati.

MAT COLE CALLS A MEETING

Time-7:OO PM, Monday, October 32st
Place-The office of j. B. CAMPBELL.
Purpose elect City Officials.
Present-Mat Cole prospective Police Judge
at a salary of $50 per month (the persent salary
being SIS per month";; Ray Ballard, prospective
City Engineer at a salary of $500 per year
(there is no salary now; j. B. Campbell, candl-
date for Mayor at $50 per month (the present
salary being S625 per month"; Also present
Mats nephew, Jim Miles; Mats brother1in- law,
Evie Mitchell; Mats partner, John Hughes;
James. Archer, SQUIRE Newman and w. c. Lock-
hart Please note James Fletcher, candidate for
councilman on Mats ticket to get votes IN his
part of town, was not notified to be present.
Why?
At this meeting ways and means by which Mat
could put over his ticket we're discussed, and 1T
was decided that some money would be necessary
to make up little "sush fund" Mat wrote his
Icheck and gave it to Campbell and Ray wrote his
check and handed it to Campbell and others pre-
Isent wrote their checks also. We dare them TO
deny, under oath, that they made up money and
that Mat and Ray each gave his check at this
meeting. 80
In this connection it might be observed that
Mat has 2 well-situated lot fronting the pOStOf-
fce where he could erect building with front,
side and rear entrances, that could be used for
pool room: and this is an ideal location, because
all school girls and others calling at the postof-
flee could hear the foul and indecent language
which would go up from patrons OF the place.
Please note, also, that Mr. Archer is changing
the inside of his hotel in such manner thaC IL
could be easily converted into pool room.

-FOUR YEARS AGO

Four years ago, Mat Cole, sponsor of the cit

Councilman. He then charged that the women
of the city were his opponents. Mat is now man
aging the campaign of his Citizens Protective
Ticket and financing it also. Here is what Mat
said four years ago:
1t happened on election day
The clothes were out drying:
A storm came raging thru the town
And sent them all a flying
The fancy colored petticoats
Went riding out like witches:
The five men wept blete like goats,
They found they'd lost their Sunday britches.

Seed Wheat In Demand.

Because Umatilla county is becom-
ing known as a leading section in the
production of pure Hybrid No. 12S
wheat quite a demand has developed
for the seed. The county has the dis
tinction of having the largest area in
one variety of wheat, between 400
and 500 sections in one block being
devoted to the culture of Hybrid 12S.
The wheat is good yielder, the straw
is stiff and the heads do not shatter.
The area is remarkably free from mix
lures, too, some tests showing only
two-tenths of one per cent of other
varieties. Union county got a start of
this seed three years ago, but the
strain has become mixed so another
carload will be purchased here this
year. Grass valley has put in an Or
der for carload. Last year carload
was sold to Morrow county. The seed
stuff commands premium over the
market price for milling wheat, 9th
er calls have been received from
Northern Idaho and from Canada.
