on the country to The detriment Of the
wool growers. It is said they have al,
ready imported enough wool with our
own production to supply the country
for not lass than two years. The ener-
gency protection expires in six months
but it is presumed the new tariff
measure will be in force by that time.
In the new tariff there should be q
duty Of not less than 80 cents possibly
rs cents per bushel on flax and pro-
portional protection on linseed oil and
other paint oils that are imported.
Then we shall see the flax industry
thrive again ia this country to the
benefit Of the farmer and the paint
manufacturers. The proposed tariff
would add not more than s to 10 cents
per gallon to the cost Of paint made
from American oils instead Of those
largely imported.
The new tariff ought also to protect
against free hides, pelts, etc. for Il
the shoe manufacturer wants protec-
ton for his finished products ais shoes
made from hides, then the farmer is
entitled to protection for his finished
products, the hides and pelts. Why
not? IF it helps the manufacturers to

help the farmers by giving them the
same protection and so make ag1icul-

mound duty to Dan Knowles after
walking the first two batsmen which
faced him. Knowles was opposed by
the boy wonder, Charles Morris.
Morris not only won the game with
his excellent pitching, but with his
timely hit in the last inning. Nor
ris' pitching was given great support.
B. Legendre made two Iris Speaker"
catches in center field. and his base
running was also a feature. Lsonard
handled himself wonderfully around
third.
All the batting feaures of the after
noon went to Glider when he landed
on one of Knowles benders and sent
it into the canal for a home run.
Montgomery of the Pelicans made
three-base hit in the sixth inning.
In the second inning the Tigers
took a one run lead over the Stars.
The Stars had scored a run in the
inning previous making the count 2-1

runs in their fifth inning. the score

Tigers theA settled down to playing
ball in their half of the fifth. After
Mothe had famed, Glider hit his
sixth home run of the season. The
score stayed 4-3 favor the Pelicans
until the seventh, when fast base run
ming by Legendre tied the count.
When the Tigers tied the count the
field rocked due to loud roar OF
cheers and "Hoorays for the Tigers.
1t was then decided'to play extra in
nings. The Pelicans were helpless
in their eighth. but oh those Tigers
Mothe famed and Glider was called
out on strikes. Bob" Talbot then
slammed a single to left, good field
ing keeping the lick from going into
extra bases. Talbot stole second and
scored on Morris tremendous drive
to left. Everyone seemed to be
pleased to see the Tigers win from

AN ATTEMPTED

A burglary was nipped in the bud
at the store of McDearman-W Williams
Co., when, about ten-thirty O'Clock
John Will Terry, VINO Is connected
with the firm, went into the store to
get his raincoat. Just as he entered
the front door, the men who evi.
IDENTIFY had just gotten in from the
side entrance of the basement, hur-
riedly retraced their steps down the
stairway from the main floor, and
before Mr.. Terry could muster re-
cruits were out of the store and gone.
Bloodhounds were sent UP from
Buffalo Valley on the one o'clock
train, and were put. on the trail of
the culprits. They were tracked from
the back entrance of the store to
Spring street, where they had enter
ed an automobile and made their es-
cape eastward. In their hurried de-
parture the burglars left Kit of
tools, and 1t is believed this may
prove their undoing. They did not
have time to secure anything either
In the way of money or merchandise
from the store, and as it was rather
an early hour for this line of trade,
1t is believed this was their first
mark. and we are glad to state that
It did not prove to be an easy one.

THE FOURTH DISTRICTS

Hon. Wynne F. Clouse Has The Honor And Distinction
Of Being The First Putnam Countian To Repre-
sent This District In Congress

In the recent Republican landslide

lost Tennessee's ranking Congress.
man, Cordell Hull, and on account OF
his great ability, and long years OF
experience, the nation almost mourn
ed his loss. Both sides IN Congress,
Republicans as well as Democrats,
who had served with him and appre-
ciated his worth expressed their
great disappointment and regret at
his fliaure to return.
Since he had to be defeated, we
had rather have Wynn Clouse do it
than any other Republican that we
know. He is our townsman, born
and reared in this county, and is as
trustwarthy as can be.
We we'll remember Mr.. Clouse's
struggles for the success he has
made; first as a country merchant,
then as a travelling salesman, and
then, to everybody's surprise, giving
up his job on the road and entering
Cumberland University to become q
lawyer 1t takes some nerve to go
from a travelling salesman to an At
torney at Law, and that after having
reached mature age. But that is
what Wynn Clouse did and that is
not all, he has made good. 1t was
predicted, Of course by the wise ones,
that he would make a failure, but
they were mistaken. Wynn Clouse
started out to succeed and succeed
he did. H is a good lawyer and is
SO recognized throughout this dist
rict. He can take care of himself
among the best, and will be heard
from in the next Congress.

leaders are now nudging each other

The European Relief Council with
state headquarters at Nashville, have
undertaken to raise a relief fund of
S250,000 for the immediate relief of
the starving millions of children in
Central Europe, and has called on
Putnam county for a certain part of
this fund, viz: $500. This big coun.
ty, with $4,000 population should
meet this quota, and then double it,
without anyone missing one penny of
the money thus donated; Putnam
county could send 100000 to these
unfortunate children who are suffer
ing the pangs of hunger to a degree
unknown in this country, and be all
the better off for so doing. Ten dol
lars will save a life, and surely we
can afford to save 100 lives and
more, and could we afford to do less?
One church in Cookeville and one
in Algood donated $4,000, each to this
fund last Sunday, and the other
churches of the towns and country
will take up special collections for
the same purpose next Sunday.
Give through your church, give
through your lodge. your club. or any
other organization you may desire to
give through, and then put in an ex-
ira dollar or so on your own account.
1t will do you good, ii you don't be-
lieve it. try it once. The Cookeville
City School will take care of at
least five children, while the T. P.
I. and faculty will likely contribute
sufficient amount to nurture ten
of these unfortunates. No one is ex-
pected to give beyond their ability,
but in campaign like this every
dollar and everyd ime counts and
will be appreciated to the utmost.
The exceeding low cost of sustenance
in Europe makes a dollar 60 long

way in the 'eeding Of these children.
The money spent for candy and
other nick-nacl:s ~ the children in
Cookeville ne week would sustain
more than 200 starving childrt n
there for month, perhaps.
Before the campaign is over the
ladies of Cookeville will have raised
about 800 for the fund, by giving
benefit entertainments. At least 20
men of the town will donate ten
dollas each, and receive from this in
vestment the satisfaction of knowing
that they have absolutely saved
life, and will have at their tables each
meal, invisible guests VINO will bring
them in dividends every day Of the
year 1921.
The committee is anxious to make
as good showing as possible in this
campaign, but 1t does not want one
dime to be given grudgingly. It
would like for all the money contrib
uted to pass through the one channel
in order to make Putnam county's
donations as large as possible. but
of course anyone who desires to con-
tribute through some other channel
tnan that Of the European Relief
Council, are at liberty to do so, but
we kindly ask that such contribu-
tions be reported to the chairman, 90
that the county as whole may set
full credit therefor. Tuesday, Feb.
has been designated cs the closing
day of the campaign, and we hope
all contributions can be turned in
