JULY REVERE

JULY REVERE.
The lazy clouds go drifting by,
Against a deep blue sky;
serenely sailing on their way,
1t is the month July.
The month for sports alluring.
When the great outdoors call;
And at their beck assuring,
Good times 10 one and all.
Eagerly we make our way,
Our inclinstions follow;
To where our favorite sport holds
sway
on hill. in dale or hollow.
The outdoor month invites us all.
With her outdoor sunny days;
And so we hasten TO her call.
To go our various ways.
Some of us motoring will go. -
And some TO tennis court;
b. Still more prefer 70 see a show,
OF baseball, our national sport.
II we shall live another life.
Beyond this life so short
I hope It's not a place of strife.
But a state Of perfect sport.
Where no one ever loses.
And the home team always wins;
And we shall be forgiven,
Sporting errors and sins.
II there shall be. eternity,
Beyond this life OF ours;
l hope that it turns out to be,
A place among the stars.
Where every day Is summer,
And can lie and lie;
And watch the clouds go drifting,
Through one grand long July.

1t seems that Harry was the re-

went boating from a camp on the 1
Delaware shore. II is rumored that
Harry went to sleep in the middle of
the river and woke up to find him-
self stranded on a desert island
which he afterward discovered to be

on the action which follows.
It took q. long time for Grubb TO

that the Jackson and Sharp man

 By Associated Press

Washington, May 4--An estimate that at the present rate the pending tariff bill would be passed on Sep tember 20, 1946, was given to the Senate today by Senator McCumber, republican, North Dakota, in charge of the measure who said the estimate had been prepared by an expert who based his calculation on the fact that just two of the 2,000 odd committee amendments to the measure have been acted on in 13 days.
 T think that after listening to the debate today" said Senator Me- Cumber, we will have to add 30 or 40 years more to the estimate
 Asserting that the tariff bill had not been discussed for one-fifth of the time 1t had been before the Sen ate Senator MeCumber declared:
 "We have all gone off an extrane- ous matters"
 Unless we get down to the bill It. self, I'll tell you what will happen. You will get tired of hearing your own voices and before you have con sidred one-t third of the bill you will be ready to swallow all of it.
 The Senate voted today to reject an amendment by Senator Jo/es. demo- rrat. New Mexico, to reduce the pro posed duty on boric acid. from one anG one half cents a pound to three quarters of one cent pound.

 TRIAL FOR SMITH
Case of Jefferson County Man Under Death Sentence to
 Be Heard Again

Montgomery, May 4.-tSpecial.)- Teague Cunningham, convicted of murder in Talladega county, must go to his death on the gallows June Is under decision of the supreme court Thursday. The court affirmed the sentence imposed by jury sev- eral months ago. Cunningham was convicted of the murder of Eugene Hobbs.
 Jake Crenshaw. convicted of the murder of Mrs. Laura Gafford in But Ter county, and Emory smith, sen- fenced to death in Jefferson county for highway robbery. were granteH new trials. In each case the suprenS court found that the trial court eonA mitted reversible errors.
 II was the second time Grenshaw has been sentenced to death and had( obtained q new trial. It is allegedS that Grenshaw killed Mrs. GaffordS when he found her alone in her farm mI home in Butler county. Crenshaw has denied from the beginning that lie was involved in the crime in any way.
 The case of Emory Smith attracted attention because it is one of the few in Alabama where the death penalty has been imposed for highway roD- bery. Smith was sentenced for inc robbery of Benjamin r. Winford, whom he held up on a public high way. The court granted another trial because of remarks which tended to prejudice the jury made by the trial judge in his charge to the jury.
