To the Taxpayers of the County.

The Dog Law has been declared
constitutional by the Supreme Court
Of Tennessee, and is now the law.
Every man owning dog can be
indicted for his failure to pay. Ow-
ing. to the fact that the court cost
alone will be about forty dollars in
each case / have hoped to avoid the
finding of any indictments in these
ceases. l have given notice after no.
tice thru the newspapers, and to-day
went before the County Court and
undertook thru the Magistrates and
people in attendance to get word
scattered over the county so that the
delinquents will pay their taxes be-
fore the September term of the Cir
cult Court.
Action in these matters has al
ready been delayed too long. 1t is
now necessary to take aggressive
steps for the collection of these taxes,
and unless the taxes are paid by the
September term of court indictments
will follow.
If the constables of the various dis
tricts will take out warrants and ar
rest everyone who has not paid the
dog tax the whole matter can be set
tied before the magistrates of the
county at an expense of three or four
dollars in each case, and save the tax
payer about forty dollars.
If this is not done by the
first Monday in September, and
If by that time the dog taxes of the
county are not paid the grand jury
will be compelled under the law and
under the charge of the court to find
indictments.
I sincerely hope that such action
will be unnecessary. take this meth
cd of again calling your attention to
the matter. T. o. MORRIS,
Attorney General.

An Expensive Term of Court

The April term of the district
court is still in session, but the work
has Jagged this term, for one reason
or another. Many cases were con-
tinued, lawyers getting continuances
ON some point or another, with the
result that very few of the eases
marked for trial got that far. Juries
were drawn in two cases, and after
working a day and half on an
other case, the cause was. continued
on account of an amendment be-
ing filed. The third case was
settled after all the evidence was in,
but didn't go to the jury. $952.50
has been paid out to jurors and only
one case decided, where verdict
was brought in for $176.24. The
jurors have been excused for the
term,

cal extravaganza given at the Grand
Opera house last Friday evening by
home talent was greeted by a
crowded house at the evening pro-
Torrance. The seats for the evening
program were sold out, and many

seat, so a forced matinee was put
on in the afternoon, and was well
attended.

JUNIOR JOTTINGS
From The Prattler

Bobbie Morton spent the weekend
in Hastings last week, the guest of
a friend.
Tho our float didn't win a prize it
did win admiration. and it isn't our
fault if the judges don't know a good
thing when they see it. All the Ju-
niors agreed that it should have won
first place.
Most of the girls at Fridays game
admitted that they could die happy
now that the P. H. S. Invincbles
have scored two touch downs.
Last week the Juniors held quite
series of class meetings in connec-
ton with Armistice Day floats, class
dues, etc. The most noted feature
of each meeting was the entire lack
of hostilities among the boys and
girls. 1t didn't seem natural to some
of ns. ....
We were gald to welcome our
classimate, Mary Smith, back. She
has been absent for several days on
account of illness.
The State Fair will cause quite a
slump in the Junior Stars this week.
Marie was the first to break the
record. She left Tuesday for Jack
sonville.
Here's the Juniors idea of a sue
cessful sponge cake: Mix together
allingredients, stir constantly. Add
anything which might tend to make
it lighter such as yeast cake or a
girls promise. In the meantime
wash any solid dishes which may
have accumulated during the mixing
process, pour the cake dough in an
oiled pan and shove in the oven, cook
several minutes, taking peeps at it
every few seconds. When done the
cake should present crateE-like APP
pearance, very fiat and soggy with
the taste of very good grade of
shoe leather.
Much anxiety is expressed by the
High School pupils over the failure
of our fountain pen ink which did
not arrive as expected. When we
think that our hard-earned pennies
| Tor penny were given for naught
it makes our blood run cold. Those
who did not contribute breathe a
sigh of deep thanks at what they
missed. Some of US believe in spec
ulation.
News has been received of the
marriage of our former Junior, Miss
Emma Rogers, to John Wesley Han,
cock of Bostwick. We extend ou1
congratulations.

kIMANDER OF FLORIDAVET
|TWHO HAS FOUGHT BIGBATTT

cultivated fields, a large ORANGE
grove and beautiful clear wator
lake, had for it's frontage a magri-
ficent pine forest which Gen, Harm
would never permit to be sacrificed
to the greed of naval stores opera
tors. This beautiful home, for ma
ny years one of the show sites of mid
die Florida, was destroyed by fire in
the autumn Of 1920, and while its
owner was in attendance upon the
annual meeting of United Veterans
at Orlando. Since that fire General
Harp has suffered keen bereavement
in the death of his devoted wife, who
previous to her marriage was Miss
Fannie Loyless, also of Dawson, Ga,
and who had four brothers who serv-
ed as soldiers of the Confederacy.
General Harp, as a pioneer of the
Crescent City district, has been a
leder in the upbuilding of his Sec
tion. AS citizen he has not been
without honor in his own country.
He served as justice of the peace,
member of the county school board,
and six years as member of the
lower house of the Florida legisla-
ture from Putnam county. He
wears his n years with vigor of
mind and body and has every prom
is of many years of life as a virile
type of the chivalry and patriotism
of the sixties in our beautiful south
land. He is modest; he appreciates
his new honors and will wear them
with becoming dignity, but he feels
himself un9 arserving. That is his
one mistake, as viewed by his old
comrades in arms and his neighbors
who are familiar with his achieve
ments in the arts of peace.

Boston Flowers Go
Direct to Lapels
(By Associated pressl

Boston, Mass, Nov. 3O-Roses and
carnations go direct from the grower
to the coat lapels of men and women
on their way to business under a plan
just adopted in the producers flower
market in this city. For many wears
growers in the suburbs have brought
their wares into Winthrop SquaRe
and disposed of them to retail florists
IN the early hours in two markets
winch combined are said to form the
largest flower market in the coun-
try.
BY the new plan designed to pre-
vent waste, the market is thrown
open to the public after nine a. m.
each day. The growers explain that
almost always there is a surplus of
flowers above the requirements of
the florists. Now the dingy walls of
the ancient buildings on the square
are frightened with bloom at an hour
OF the day when others beside those
intent on the commercial side of
flower growing can enjoy the specta-
Gle. A guaranteed fresh boutoniere
can be bought on the way to the Of
flee and roses no longer waste their
sweetness on the pre-business hours
of the day.
Manila, P. l., Nov. 30-Because
Moro Mahaludin squeezed the arm
of his tiance, Mora Jumalia, an act
believed by the Moros to be forbid
den by the Koran, Mohammedan sa-
cred scripture, Salahudin, brother of
the girls, started out with his bolo
to avenge the alleged insult, and
when he had finished his work, Ma
haludin and three of his relatives
were dead
The murders occurred on Lugos
Island, province of Siasi, in the Su-
III archipelago few days ago, &C
cording to official advices received
here from the commander of consta-
bulary in Siasi.
When Salahudin learned of the al
legged insult to his sister, he sum-
moned friend. They sharpened up
their bolos and invaded Mahaludin's
household. They slashed right and
left with their weapons killing Ma
haludin, his sister, Moro Damsa. and
his wife, the latter two relatives Of
Mahaludins. The two murderers
are still at large.

pie who get divorced frequently give
