Dollars and Cents.

Counting it only in dollars and
cents, how much did that last cold
cost you? A man may not always
stop work when he has a cold, but
perhaps it would be better If he. did.
1t takes about ten days to get COM
pletely rid of a cold under the usual
treatment. That time can be much
shortened by taking Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy and proper care of
yourself, in fact, bottle of this
remedy in the house is mighty good
investment during the winter and
spring months. m

on themselves by the use of mineral

FARMERS LIKE COTTON
MARKETING PLAN

After a visit to a number of com

the county, County Agent Hollings-
worth states that he finds good deaI
Of interest in the plan proposed tC
market cotton on the cooperative
plan.
Mr.. "A. N. 0dom, the classer for the
Department Of Extension, win be
here in a few days to assist in MAX
ing the final plans for the weekly
pools to be held during the season.
Enough farmers have agreed to
market their cotton on this plan to
assure the forming of the pools.
The plan is simple and has the en-
dorsement Of the United States De-
partment of Agriculture, and the Di-
vision of Extension of the state. The
cotton will be sold by the farmers, as
sisted by the representative of the
Department of Agriculture. Each
pool will be held separately and in
this way the farmer sells his own cot
ton, with the assistance Of sales
man and classer.

CITY ELECTION BOARD
TO MEET TUESDAY

The City Election Board will meet
Tuesday afternoon. September s, for
the purpose of setting the date of
the municipal primary election, which
will most likely be- called some time
this fall. The board is composed Of
Mrs. w. V. Bringle, chairman: Hon.
VIM. A. Shoaf, Jr., secretary and
treasurer; DR.. L. ]. Lindsey, Attorney
w. G. Upton and Mrs. Will Lowen-
haupt. The election will be held to
nominate candidates for mayor, alder
men, city recorder, marshal, school
board and assistant marshal.
Though he has made no formal an
nouncement, Mayor j. J. Miller will
most likely be a candidate for re-
election, as well as Messrs. w. c..
Dumas, for marshal; j. 0. Hadley. as
sistant marshal, and J. E. Palmer,
recorder. 1t is probable that all of
them will have opponents, notwith-
standing the fact that no an
nouncements have been made to date.
After the boards meeting Tuesday
the candidates win doubtless come
forward with their claims.
Rumor has it that some of the
present members of the board of
aldermen will not be candidates for
reelection. In fact, none of the
members have announced their can
didacy for reelection.

community, was shot about daylight
Tuesday morning while on her way
TO the Hall home to prepare break
fast. Estes Hall. colored, accused Of
the shooting, was lying in wait for
her to pass in corn field, firing
upon the woman without warning
and fled for liberty. Thus far he
has been successful in evading arrest,
but it is thought his capture by the
officers is only matter Of a few
days.
The woman was painfully wound
ed in the face. several shots from the
single barrelled gun used BY Hall
lodging in her face and neck. Her
condition is not considered serious.
Hall, it is said, was enraged with
jealousy when he committed the
crime, having learned Of her intimacy
with another man, who accompanied
her to church on the night before the
shooting. The woman stated to Of

was sure Hall fired at her. having

mittee with authority to find a suit
able place of worship.
A sufficient number of members
have already been mustered together
to Justify the organization of a

estimated that the new church will
have a membership of at least 100
persons by the time the meeting is
brought to a conclusion.
Great crowds attend every evening
service. The congregation last Sun
day evening was estimated at 1900
people, Evangelist Raum is yerv
gifted speaker and sways his audi

BUSINESS MEMS CLUB.
DISCUSS WAGON YARD

AT meeting of the Business Mems
Club Friday afternoon, the necessity
of municipal wagon yard was dis
cussed at length by the members
present. A committee was appointed
to investigate the availability Of sew
eral lots contiguous to the public
square. No other action was taken.
but a movement is on to push the
matter until wagon yard is as
sured.
There are several lots available.
but the principal objection to these is
that the owners are offering them at
prices, according to a member of the
committee, that they are unable to
pay.
Those booltihg the wagon yard
plan are also in favor Of prohibiting
the operation of meat wagons ON the
public square, and urge that market
place convenient to the square be
provided for them near the proposed
wagon yard If the wagon yard is
established it will most likely be
supervised and operated by the city
without cost to the persons using it.
The matter has been discussed by
the Board of Mayor and Aldermen,
but no action will be taken until a
suitable lot can be found that can be
at reasonable price.

HOLE IN THE DOOR
is NEW POST RULE

The latest postal orders sent out
from Washington is calculated to
improve the postal service and the if
ficiency Of the men who deliver mail
once or twice each day in Covington
and the larger cities to the home or
office Of the hurried business man, II
is designed to change the status of
the city mail carrier from house ser
want to public servant.
In order to bring about this state
OF affairs, the postoffice department
has issued an order requiring patrons
OF city mail delivery services to in
stall mail receptacles at their doors
Of to cut slots in the doors. This inn
provement is expected to save a lot
OF time, both for the carriers and the
patrons.
Within four months from August
20, residents who are served by the
carrier delivery service will be re-
quired to meet the new rule of the de-
partment. It is preferred that slots
be cut in the doors, but receptacles
may be provided. One or the other
must be done within the four months
1T is not the departments desire,
says First Assistant Postmaster Cen
eral John H. Bartlett. in a recent or
der to all postmasters, "that any
shall be deprived of delivery byI
this requirement, but rather it IS
earnestly hoped that all will see the
reasonableness of it and it's advan-
tage to themselves as well as to the
carriers. But if it finally becomes
mail delivery will be dis
continued where no door-slots or mail
receptacles are provided
Gen. Bartlett also stated that a ma
jority of residences served by carrier
are already equipped in conformity
with the new rule.

ATTENDANCE OFFICER ON
DUTY SEPTEMBER

AT the July meeting of the County
Board of Education the Red Gross
offered the services of its secretary
to enforce the compulsory attendance
law as enacted in 1918 and amended
by the state legislature in 1919.
This offer was accepted by the
board, and Miss Hawkins, Red Cross
Secretary, has been vested with the
power of school attendance officer,
with the authority to enforce the
law. She will act without compensa-
ton from the school board for a
period Of three months, at the end of
which time it is felt that much good
will have been accomplished toward
keeping irregular pupils in daily at
tendance and persuading those not in
school at all to go. Her duties will
start September /.
The present appropriation to coun-
ties is based upon the average daily
attendance and not upon scholastic
population as formerly A recent
statement issued by the State Depart
ment of Public Instruction showed
that approximately $4 per pupil is
added to the appropriation given by
the state to the counties for each
child in daily attendance. Aside from
the great good coming to every child
because Of his presence daily at
school, it is evident that the county
will benefit materially by having the
law enforced.
Because the school board furnishes
no transportation for its officer,
neither does it give maintenance
fund, only certain schools can be Wis
tied. These will be used as demon
stration areas. 1t is hoped that later
all schools may have the benefit of
the attendance officers services.
