Glue Stronger Than Steel.

A new field for wood has been
opened by the use Of what Is called
ply-wood and glue made from the
blood of the animals killed at the
slaughter house and of the casein, OBJ
tanned from milk.
Remarkable sturdiness under all con-
ditions has been shown by this COM
bination. The combination was first
thought of in connection with the man.

Thin sheets Of wood are laid one
over the other with dry sheets Of pa.

new glue. The mass Is then heated
under pressure and the result is that
a structure is formed which Is strong
er than steel and has many other adj
vantages over metal.
Panels were glued together with
these and tested in boiling water for
eight hours At the expiration Of this

DILLON STOPS GEORGE SIREY.

Mickey Dillon knocked out George
Sirey in the second round of their
scheduled fifteen round bout at the
Tulane Club last week. After taking
a terrific beating from Sirey in the
first round, Dillon fought wildly and
desperately in the second. He battered
Sirey's guard down and, dazing him
with right to the head, swung his left
wickedly to Sireys solar plexus and
Sirey went down and out.
There was such rain of punches
snapped between the two and Dillon
was swinging so wildly that several,
including Bill Sehrt, Sirey's manager,
belived Sirey had been hit low and
raised a cry Of foul.
Dillon might have landed a light
blow below Sirey's belt at that. But
the wallop which knocked George into
a helpless heap on the floor landed
high up and he was floored clearly.
Dillon almost tossed off his victory
by fouling Sirey after the latter hit
the floor. Dillon became wildly ex-
cited and, rushing in, was swinging a
blow at the kneeling fighter when Ref
cree Rogers showed him so hard he
(Dillon) was knocked down.

TULANE THEATRE.
"TWIN BEDS"

That life in a crowded apartment
house is a fertile field for farce
complications, having not only the
melancholy charm of familiarity TO
many sufferers who are forced to
live it. but the exciting appeal OF
continuous and unexpected happen
ings to those who live it with sense
of humor, and those who look on,
has been established to. the final
word by Salisbury Field and Mar
garet Mayo with their delicious farce
Twin Beds, which Clay Lambert
by arrangement with Selwyn Co.,
will send to the Tulane all next
week, starting Sunday night, with
an ideal company or comedians for
it's Interpretation.
But Twin Beds has more than
intellectually amusing situations.
These alone would probably have
carried it to a rare degree of sue
cess by virtue of their novelty, the
rapidity of their development and
their uncommon naturalness. In
addition to the above, 1t possesses the
value, almost never found in farce,
of fine Characterization, witty lines,
and delicate feeling which pops out
when it is least expected, and
heightens the effect of the comedy.
Three couples live uncomfortably
near each other in the crowded con-
fines of a fashionable apartment
house. They are brought together
by the sociability of one of their
number, a delectable bride, whose
husband wants nothing so much as
"peace and quiet in the home
Once they are immeshed in this un-
welcome neighborliness, they all
make frantic efforts to escape it
each effort entangling them the
more, until final catastrophe sit
uation saves the day and sends the
audience home still rocking with
mirth.
The management have selected for
the portrayal of Twin Beds" an ex-
ceptional company of farceurs, who
have long been identified with thi:
remarkable success.

of the currency and one of the bes
financiers in the United States, also
will address the convention on the
subject of finance. f. w. Nelson
vice-president of the Retail Credit
Mems National Association, and
one of the foremost authorities on
retail credits, will speak on the sub
iect of credit systems in retail
stores. His address will be one oi
the most instructive features of the
convention.
An effort is being made to in
duce Herbert Hoover, secretary of
commerce. to address the conven-
ton. and he has assured the com
mittee that he will come to Mem
phs next month if the duties of his
Office will permit. Ii he addresses
the convention, Secretary Hoover
is expected to discuss general busi-
ness conditions affecting the United
States and the outlook for the next
year.
Numerous other speakers are bill
ed for addresses touching upon the
various phases of business and
finance in which the south is deep
ly interested, and, ass. q. Wilson,
president of the association said a
few days ago. it will be worth 800
a day to the merchant who attends
the sessions of the convention and
hears these talks.
The entertainment program is
especially attractive this year and
includes a number of features that
are new to conventions of this kind.
No expense has been spared in ar
ranging the numerous events de-
signed for the pleasure of the visiting
merchants. Every delegate to the
convention will be given tickets to
every function arranged for the con-
yention, as we'll as to all local thea
ters and regularly operated amuse-
ment places.
One of the premier attractions
in the way of entertainment will be
the horse races at the Tri-State Fair
Grounds. This event is being ar
ranged through the Memphis Driv-
ing Club. and some of the best an
imals entered on the regular cards
by that organization will be entered
in the convention races. The track

at the fair grounds is being put in
tiptop shape for the races.
The usual barbecue and carnival
will be held this year. This has
become one of the notable features
of the conventions of the Cotton
States Merchants Association and
it will measure up to- the usual
standard of pleasure and enjoy
ment this year. The barbecue will
be held at the fair grounds on the
last day of the convention.
The regular boat ride on the Mis-
sissippi river will be augmented
this year with swimming races, and
| for this reason the pleasure trip will
be made in the afternoon instead
of at night, as has been the custom
in former years. A number of
Memphis girls will be entered in
the races, which are being arranged

Other amusements will include
visits to the theaters, roof gardens,
dance halls. parks, baseball games,
boxing matches and similar at
fractions. A feet of automobiles
will be placed at the disposal of
the delegates and guides will con-
duct them to the many points of in
terest in and around the city. A
number of large manufacturing con-
Germs of the city have invited the
merchants to visit their plants and
see what is being done in the way
OF manufacturing in the Queen
City of the South" Memphis has
large number of industries that
she is proud OF. and Justly so. For
instance, the largest snuff factory
and the largest cotton oil mill in
the world are located here. The
plant of the Memphis Terminal
Corporation is the largest cotton
warehouse in the world.
Reduced rates on all railroads
will be In effect during the period
of the convention. This is the first
time in the history of the associa-
ton that railroads have recognized
it as an educational institution. 1t
is expected that the lower railroad
rates from all points in the south
will serve as an inceutiye to mer-
chants to attend the convention
this year. and preparations are be-
ing made for one of the largest con-
yention crowds Memphis has ever
seen.

Salaries of Officials

In regard to the present salaries
of state and county officials, it will
be we'll to note one or two things:
First that the Act by which these
salaries were increased reads in
part as follows: The salaries fixed
by this Act shall remain in force
until April /, 1922. and no longer, -
so it will be seen that if the legisla-
tors when they meet next year
must re-enact this statute or enact
a new one, otherwise the law of
1916 would again become opera
tive. We believe the sentiment of
the majority of the voters is opposed
to the present high salaries, but if
they want the law repealed they
will have to say so and say it
strongly or the present Legislators
will re-enact tighter one. On the
other it is foolish to hold it against
county official for accepting a
higher salary when it is handed up
to him without any solicitation on
his part. West Point Leader.

Fall Irish Potatoes

The initial cost of making an
Irish potato crop. that is. the pur.
chase of seed and fertilizer. is some
what greater than is the cost OF
some other Mississippi crops. and
is the factor in limiting the acreage.
In order to keep the expense at a
minimum, the grower who expects
to make an early crop next spring
should put in an acreage this fall
that will not only supply the local
markets but insure sufficient seed
for the spring crop. Some OF the
most successful potato growers of
the state have found that good
home grown seed have given an
increased yield as we'll as a cheap
eource of seed supply.
The fall crop shonld be planted
the latter part of July or first of
August. Thorough preparation of
tdC 5CCd OC0 " COAlcCAtC
and the pre-sprouting of seed are
two essentials for obtaining a good
stand This sprouting can be ac-
complished by putting the potatoes
in cool, damp place, or by spread
ing them in the shade and keeping
them covered with dramp straw.
The seed or seed pieces should be
planted deep and the planting done
on a cloudy day or late in the af-
ternoon, so that the furroWs and
seed pieces will not be exposed to
the heat of the sun. Just before
the sprouts break through, Sec
tion harrow should be run diago-
nally across the rows to break the
crust and reduce the height of the
row. K. M. GRAHAM.

Memphis, Tenn, Aug, 3.-Plans
for the seventh annual convention
of the Cotton States Association are
rounding into a definite program
which offers more to the merchants
of the south than any similar con-
vention in the history of the conn-
try. The convention will be held
here August % 325. inclusive.
Former conventions of the asso-
citation have proven highly success
ful, as we'll as enjoyable, but the
three-day meeting this year will be
most important because of the un-
settled condition in business gen.
orally and the need for closer CO.
operation between the merchants of
the south. Then it is good for bus
mess men to get together and dis
cuss their problems, exchanging
ideas and views concerning reme-
dies and the safe conduct of future
business. Never was the need for
such discussion keener than it is to-
day, when the business world i

long period of depression.
For this reason, the executive

attractive programs in the history
of the organization Nothing could
be added to it, either from the
standpoint of educational features

and financial authorities w. P.
G. Harding, governor of the fed
eral reserve hoard. has accepted an
invitation to address the conven-
ton. He will pay particular at
tention to the problem of fnancism
the movement of the cotton crop
this fall and will detail the plan of
the federal reserve to take care of
the south's chief crop.
1t was said by hundreds of fnan-
ciers that the federal reserve sys-
tenn, the greatest banking system
IN the world, saving the United
States from bankruptcy during the
war. The claim has neyen been
contradicted. But even greater
service has been rendered the ma
ton by the federal reserve during
the past year. when the United
States passed safely through the
