l24 (From Mondays Daily Herald)
Saturday afternoon about o'clock
4 Anne Loftin, the pretty little nine
year old daughter of Mrs. X. r. Loftin
4 living in West End, was attacked by a
vicious bull dog and suffered many
decorations about the face, arms, legs
and body.
The dog belonged to w. J. fowler,
Jr. Anne had been skating, ac-
cording to the child's statement on
the pavement in front of her mothers
and the fowler residence when the
dog came out and reared upon her sew
eral times. The child says she
knocked him off and later went into
her mothers yard and was skating
on the walk leading to the house. The
dog evidently became peeved at some.
thing and jumped out of his Owners
yard and into the Loftn yard and at
tackled the child.
| The screams of the child brought
her sisters to the rescue but their eff
forts to get him off were futile.
Allen White, driver for w, D. TuckeS
G CO., who was passing and saw the
distress the child was in rushed to her
assistance.
Allen says that when he arrived on
the scene the dog was pulling at the
child's arm and shaking it like he
would rag. He grabbed the dog by
the throat and succeeded in choking
him off. and after doing SO the dog
tried to bite him.
The child was bitten on each cheek
just beneath the eyes, through the up
per lip through the right forearm,
on the calf of the left leg, left knee
and left hand. She also received some
decorations on the right knee, either
from the dogs fangs or installing.
| Anne saved her face from further
decorations by having enough pres
ence of mind to bury her face in the
dirt, or she would have been totally
disfigured, but as it is she will no
doubt have two ugly scars beneath
her eyes. She is the youngest child
of Mrs. Loftin and is Iiet55eniy one Of
/ the prettiest little girls in the city,
but she possesses loveable disposi-
tioh.
Dir. George Williamson was called
in upon the case and Sunday he and
Meredith King, Mrs Loftin's brother
inlaw took possession of the dog, hav-
ing been given custody of the animal
| by Mr.. fowler, carried him to the vet
Urinary hospital Of DR.. Mcmahon, who
sent the dogs head to DR.. Litterer's
laboratory in Nashville for examina
ton to determine whether the dog
had rabies
Saturday night the child rested bad
ly, due largely to the nervous shock
as we'll as from the decorations, and
Sunday morning she developed a
slight fever, but inquiry today showed
that she had good night Sunday
hight and was feeling much better. A
good deal of the soreness and swelling
have subsidized.

HOW WILL OFFICES
l Be SUPPLIED NOW
SPECULATION AS TO RULING OF
NEW ADMINISTRATION OF 4TH
CLASS POSTMASTER
From Saturdays Daily Herald

lFrOm Saturdays DAILY Herald
What will become of the fourth
class postmastership in the county
as result of the change in admins
tration? 1t is generally believed that
these offices will remain under the civ
II service, that is that the postmasters
will be appointed from one of the
three highest on the eligible list, but
who will make the recommendation
in districts where there are democrat
ic congressman? There are still FIVE
districts in Tennessee and a few in
the other states where they have dem
ocratic representatives in congress.
Now will these representatives be per-
mitted to make recommendations or
will the republican organization be
consulted
There is already one vacancy in a
fourth class Office in the county that
makes the question pertinent one.
That Is the Santa Fe office where Sc
Gently several applicants took the ex-
animation. 1t is said that three of the
applicants made exceedingly high
grades They are Paul Allen. Mrs
Ben Mullins and Austin Mcknight.
One of them will in all likelihood get
the office. But which one is the all
important question.

the light shallow civilizations have
also proved their worth.
In 1919 there were twenty boys in
Tennessee who produced over 100
bushels Of corn per acre. In 1890 the
100 bushel club was increased to 30.
The way the corn club boys are go.

will be increased still more If it is

HARVEY DOESN'T EXPECT
A TRIPLE ALLIANCE,

Liverpool, Nov. George Harvey,
the United States Ambassador to
Great Britain, told an audience at
the Liverpool chamber of commerce
tonight that it was futile to hope
that America. as Lord Derby recently
had been suggesting, may some day
be merged in a definite alliance with
Great Britain and France.
This statement was made as a di-
gression from an address on econo-
mics and the international industrial
situation in which the American am
/ hassadOr attacked communism So
cialism and defended the principle Of
individualism.
in his depression, Ambassador Har-
vey recalled Lord Derby's statement
in recent address in Birmingham
in which the latter voiced the con
yiction that success of the Washing
ton limitation of armamentS con
ference would mean peace and that
its failure would mean war in the
Immediate future The speaker also
recalled Lord Derby's suggestion tC
former President Poincare OF France
at a dinner last Tuesday that al
Anglo-Franch alliance would be de
sirable in the interests of peace, in

America might eventually join tn,
