TIME FOR
!. OBTAINING NEW TAGS

Owing to the fact that the rush for
automobile license plates has been SO
heavy that the state has been unable
to keep pace with the filing of appli-
cations the time limit for securing the
licenses has been extended until jan
uary 20, according to information re-
ceived Monday by Secretary Hoy l..
Russell of the Chamber of Commerce,
who serves as deputy registrar for
Knox county.
The rush for licenses at the Cham
ber of Commerce last week was SO
heavy, according to Mr.. Russell, that
all other work in connection with the
office was neglected and for this rea-
son the office this week is adhering
strictly to the rule that no licenses
will be issued before $3.50 o'clock in
the mornings.
"This hour and one half" Mr.. Rus
sell said Monday, will merely give us
q chance to get out our state reports,
but as for our own work have no
idea when we'll get to that"

WHERE WASHINGTON
WORSHIPED
BY T. MAxEY

II ISTORY shows that the plot of
IL ground on which stands Christ
church, in the quaint, old-fashioned
town of Alexandria, Virginia, first
settled about 1895, was acquired in
1894 for the sum of one penny.
Around this sacred relic of by-gone
days perhaps revolyes more patriotic
sentiment than that which surrounds
any other of the many old and his
toric churches in this nation. An iron
fence, set upon an ancient brick wall,
encloses a grassy plot which Is dotted
with many quaint grave stones and
also contains the church itself.
Although certain interior changes
and renewals necessarily have been
made, the general appearance of the
church is practically the same as In
the days of old. The same ehancel
rail, communion table, reading desk
and chairs and brass candle holders
are in use, while among the relics In
the vestry may be seen the first bible
used-made in Scotland in 1776, and
the long-handled purses in which the
offerings of the ~parishioners were de-
posted.
1t was to this church, both before
and after the revolution as well as
after retiring from the presidency,
that General George Washington came
from Mount Vernon, In his coach and
four, to worship. The pew occupied
by the Washington family, as well as
the one used by General Robert E.
Lee. are maintained in exactly the
same condition as when used by them.
