MAKES SAVINGS
SEVEN DOLLARS
ONLY WAY TO ENJOY THE GREAT
CHAUTAUQUA Is TO BUY ONE
OF THEM.
ARE GOOD FOR SEVEN EVENTS BEST SALE RECENTLY MADE
Unless People Rally to Support OF the
Guarantors This VIII Probably Be
the Last Year to Enjoy High Glass
Attractions.


The Chautauqua guarantors held a
very enthusiastic meeting last night,
and discussed the best method of put
ting over the sale necessary to make
good their guarantee. Everybody is
urged to buy their season ticket today.
The season ticket saves the buyer 81
over the singlesadmissions it helps the
guarantors make good their guMan-
tee, and brings to the community one
of the best entertainments possible.
The Chautauqua is community af-
fair, it is put on by the business men
for the benefit of the people of Colum.
bia. The bureau merely furnishes the
talent. The residents of Columbia
should stand back of this movement,
not only for its own merits but to help
the business men make good their at
tempt to better the community. The
price of the season ticket is less than
any one number such as the big play
THE Man From Home would cost
in the city. Three single admission
tickets 90 more than one of the sea-
son tickets. and the purchase4of single
admission tickets do not help the guar
antors.
Columbia should be one of the best
Chautauqua cities in the state. The
business men had faith in Columbias
ability and willingness to stand back
of high class of entertainment SO
they put themselves back of the Chau-
tauQua. Now they ask the citizens of
Columbia to show that they made no
mistake and that they are willing to
stand back of the business men in the
purchase of the necessary number of
season tickets.
The Redpath Chautauqua stands on
it's own merits, but the people should
be more willing to aid when it means
that the guarantors will stand to lose
money by their lack of support. Let
everybody get behind these men and
show them that the people of Colum-
b!a do appreciate high clas of enter
tainment. Buy your season ticket to-
day.

KNOXVILLE, Tenn, June 2.-What
promises to be the most notable occa-
sion in the History of the University
of Tennessee and educational develop
ment in this state is the dedication of
the two magnificent new buildings of
the University, made possible by mil
lion dollar appropriation voted by the
1917 legislature, and the great Eff
cient Citizenship conference to be
held in connection on June and Z.
University officials have keen de-
sire to make the institution one of SER
vice to all of the people of the state
in every line of endavor and to bring
about better understanding on the
part of the public as to the proper
functionings of state university
said DR.. H. A. Morgan in recent in
terview, With this in mind a great
conference of men and women repre-
senting all of the varied industries.
professions, civic welfare, organiza-
tions throughout the state will be held
in connection with the dedicatory ex-
ercises, he continued ..4..- 4
THE state of Tennessee is the cam
pus OF the University, and we want
the view point of the best minds of
the state ON these questions:
What should state university be?
How may 1t best serve the state?
These questions are particularly peril.
nent just at this time, at the dedica-
tion of the ma gnificent new buildings
of the University. On June a great
building devoted to laboratories and
class rooms. for instruction IN the va
rious branches Of agriculture-the
newest subject in the curriculum of col
legs-will be dedicated An on June
T. Ayres hall, one of the best univer-
sity buildings in America, devoted to
class rooms for the languages, math-
ematics, history and philosophy-th
time honored basis of education--will
be dedicated.
THE, state Legislature of 1921 amend
ed existing law SO as to provide one
half mill tax for the support of the
university. This is a substantial in
crease in the university's income,
though falling far short of funds pro-
vlded by many states for the support
of their leading institutions.
Il believe that the development of
the University, and its support by the
state,q will depend upon the institu-
tion itself, and its ability to serve the
state. If the University of Tennessee
can show progress from year to year;
If it can demonstrate wise expediture

MINUTE THAT IT WILL BE I'M
POSSIBLE FOR HERAccEPT.
HAD BEEN EMPLOYED. AS AGENT
County Is Still Without Services OF
Demonstration Agent, But Search
for Competent One Is Continued by
Mrs. Wendell.

Miss Mary Lee Garrett, Of West
Tennessee, who had been appointed
home demonstration agent for Maury
county, has wired Mrs. Hattie F. Wen.
del at the last moment that 1T will be
impossible for her to come to Maury
county, thereby leaving the county
without a demonstration agent.
Mrs Wendell was greatly disappoint-
ed at the non-appearance Of Miss Gar
rett here, and was at loss to know
what to do in view Of the circumstanc-
es. There is much responsibility
to the work OF the demon.
stration agent in Maury county and q
thoroughly competent woman is need
ed for the place, and it was only after
considerable difficulty that the SER
vices of Miss Garrett had been secur-
ed.
Although the county court did not
appropriate funds for he continuance
of the demonstration work in.the coun.
ty, the patriotic women of the several
community clubs of the county got
together and secured sufficient money
to bring an agent to the county, real
izing the need of this agent If the
county is to be properly represented
at he state fair in September.
The last minute decision of Miss
Garrett will prove distinct disap-
pointment to these women, but Mrs.
Wendell will continue her search for
an available agent, but today was una
BILE to give out anything definite as to
when one could be secured.

the entire net proceeds of the issue
must be converted into othe treasury
and this item of discount, together
with any expenses of the sale such as
advertising, etc, must be paid by the
communities who share IN the sale.
County Superintendent Graham has
already small sum in his hands that
has been paid in by the communities
that are beneficiaries from the sale
to cover just such contingencies as
this. 1t was also stipulated in the bid
Of Caldwell & Company that it would
pay all of the costs of the. issue, so
that outside of the advertising and the
discount there will be little expense
to meet.
Regret was expressed that the sue
cessful bidder required all of the pro-
ceeds of the sale to be kept on depos-
It in a Nashville bank, but the officials
felt that this was the best and highest
bid and that in the absence of any
contract with the local banks they
would be forced to accept it.
This is generally regarded as the
best and most advantageous sale of
bonds made by any county or munich
pality in many months. 1t actually
means that the county got par and ac-
crued interest, because it will take ev-
ry cent of the 1879 to pay the eSpens-

pay several thousand dollars in dis
