tion. 1t Is an interesting house, planned
with individuality and artistic taste-a
refreshingly different sort OF a house,

There was some amused comment on
the fact that whereas six or eight
months ago pictures OF Senator Edge
and General Pershing were in the news
columns together as having both been
suitors for the hand OF Louise Crom-
well Brooks. who was announcing her
engagement to General Douglas Nc
Arthur. then superintendent of West
Point--they We're again both getting
their pictures in the papers last We'd
nesday-Senator Edge because he really
was engaged, to a girl younger and
quite as pretty as the present Mrs. Nc
Arthur-and General Pershing merely
because he WAS getting older. 1t was
his sixty-second birthday-and the
fourth anniversary OF the drive on st.
Mihiel by men under his command. He
did not celebrate. except by sticking
close to his flower laden desk all day
at least not In Washington or during
business hours. but he went up to New
York that afternoon-and perhaps he
had a. birthday party there.
Another interesting engagement is
that OF Mile. Paule du Mont. daughter
of the French Military Attache, Col.

BEWARE 0F THE
: BLUE SKY PEDNER

Information has reached The de-
partment OF the State that the lie
gal sale of stock and securities in the
State Of Tennessee has greatly in
creased, and the Secretary of State
has issued the following statement
bearing on this subject:
No investment company can legally
offer its stock or securities for sale
in this state until it has complied
with the Blue Sky Law, received per-
nit, and licensed its agents through
the office Of the Secretary Of
State. Any company selling stock in
Tennessee which has not complied
with these provisions, is violating the
law and such sales are void and il
legal.
Any agent selling the stock Of any
company, whether qualified or other
wise, without first securing license
from the Secretary of State 10 sell
the stock of said company in the
State of Tennessee is violating the
law and such sales are void and i'll
legal.
If parties dealing with agents or
statesmen offering the stock of invest
ment companies for sale, would de-
mand that they show their license
from the Secretary Of State author
izing them to offer said stock for
sale, much trouble and loss would be
avoided.
Inquiries are received by this Of
flee daily from parties who have pur-
chased securities, wanting to know
whether the company had complied
with the Blue Sky Law, and what this
office knows about the company.
These inquiries should be made be-
fore the people turn their money loose
in indiscriminate stock speculation
and not after, as the agent who made
the sale has by that time doubtless
left for parts unknown, taking the IN
vestor's money with him.
While this office is anxious to
serve the public faithfully it cannot
do so successfully without co,opera-
tion. and it urges the importance of
the foregoing upon the public 1t
is not the policy of this office to
endorse even the purchase of stock
sold by companies qualified to do SO
and it is so stated in the face of
every permit issued. This last state
ment is made with the sole view of
causing the public to make full in
vestigation of any securities offered
for sale before investing their money
