FREE VACCINE
FOR CHILDREN
Vaccination of School Children Is Urged
BY Board of Health.

For the benefit of school patrons and
children it has been announced from the
state board of health laboratory that the
additional vaccine for the vaccination OF
smallpox ordered by the state board of
health will arrive in the city possibly by
Saturday and not later than Monday
when it will be distributed to the vari-
Gus physicians in the city to be used
in vaccination.
No vaccination will be done at the
laboratory building. The vaccination for
school children Is not compulsory but is
strongly recommended by the state
board of health in view OF the fact that
a number of smallpox cases have de-
veloped in the state, some of these in
Escambia county.
The vaccination causes no particular
Inconvenience and the cases suffering in
disposition as a result are comparatively
small. Parents are advised to have
their children attending school vaccinat-
ed. They will be excused by school au-
thorities for short absence if such
should be necessary.

TARIFF BILL
TOBE FIRST
Scheduled to Top Legislative
Program of New Session
of Congress.
(5y The Associated Press).

WASHINGTON, March 17.-Repub-
lican members of the house ways and
means committee stood pat today on
the proposition that permanent tar
III bill should top the legislative pro-
gram OF the new session of congress.
This view was expressed at a COM
mittee conference which took up
among other things the question of
preparing and rushing through the
house the same anti-dumping bill
passed last session together with an
added American valuation measure.
The latter may be incorporated in the
same bin. and the committee adopted
resolution requesting treasury de-
partment officials to frame a rough
draft for is consideration.
There was no intimation from the
white house as to whether the presi-
dent had approved the program agreed
upon Monday at a conference of the
ways and means and senate finance
committees. The president had ex
pected to see western members of the
former committee, who have been in
sisting in demanding that the tariff
be taken up ahead OF revenue revision,
but the meeting was postponed at his
request and Chairman Fordney ex-
planned that he had sent Mr.. Harling
a list OF members with whom he
might want TO discuss the situation.
Meanwhile there were other move
ments under way which would have
the effect of giving interests demand
ing IL an emergency tariff. There has
been much discussion OF the proposal
by Senator Smoot, republican Utah,
10 put an embargo on wool, which was
included In the F'ordney measure
passed by the senate and house and
vetoed by Mr.. Wilson. Congressional
and administrative circles were said
70 be planning to put an embargo on
other products now on the free list.
Although they had been advised of
such movement. members Of the
ways and means committee declared
that the question OF preparing an out
and out emergency tariff had been
definitely abandoned.

letters when he became head of his
own house, having never attended school
a day in his life.
Johnson's political career began as al
derrnan of Greeneville. He then served
as mayor, was elected to the lower house
of the legislature, then state senator,
afterward to congress, became governor
of Tennessee, serving two terms, United
States senator, military governor OF
Tennessee, was elected as vice presi-
dent Of the United States and became
president upon the death of Lincoln. His
final political office was that as United
States senator from Tennessee.
Johnson, while governor of Tennessee,
once resumed his vocational implements
He had formed strong friendship in
the Tennessee Legislature for w. W.
Pepper, of Springfield. a staunch Wing
and once a blacksmith. Despite their
irreconciable political creeds the per-
sonal relations of Johnson and Pepper
were extremely cordial. Pepper became
judge of the seventh judicial district in
1854 and after visit to Johnson, then
governor, set about making a present to
his friend, fashioning a shovel which he
sent with a note explaining it was in
tended as a mementO of a friendship that
was proof against All political differences.
Johnson, to show, his appreciation OF
the token, took up his scissors ana
needle and made handsome beaver
cloth coat which he pressed and sent to
pepper. 1t was a splendid piece of
workmanship, probably the last of that
kind of work Johnson ever did, and ex-
lists to this day, the property of w. w.
Pepper of Springfield, Judge Pepper 5
only surviving son. The coat was made
about IL years before Johnson entered
the white house and the movement to
preserve his old tailor shop in Greene
vile by legislative enactment has re-
Vived that story of the tailor president.
