ROCHESTER,, HOME OF MAYO,
 ENJOYS GREAT PROSPERITY

Rochester, Minn., city made fam ous by the Mayo clinic, Is one of the most prosperous communities in the country, according to Jack O'Malley, well known old-timer of the Fairbanks district, who return ed to the Interior last week from a health trip to the celebrated hospital-city. People flock to Roch- ester, be says, from all corners of the globe and money circulates very freely there.
 The cost of living, if one patron izes the hotels and cafes, is quite high and business, apparently, Is good all the time, for there are no closed seasons at the Mayo clinic There Is a stream of humanity com ing and going all the time and the rush for consultation is such that one almost has to fight for place Officers are kept constantly on duty to keep the waiting crowds in order.
 As most Alaskans are already aware, the Mayos are very liberal in their treatment of patients. They do not ask too many questions when one goes there for treatment and the only payment insisted upon Is the moderate charge for hospital care. ranging in price according to room. Aid is not refused if one is without funds and the poor and the rich receive the same treatment as far as the doctors are concerned. There are no streetcars in Roch- ester, all of the moving about be- Ing by auto. And there are under ground passages for conveying patients to and from the operating rooms. A large part of the city Is owned by the Mayo corporation.
 During the time that MT. O'Malley was there, the doctors were making a study of a case of sleeping sick ness, the patient being a boy who had been brought to Rochester from town some distance away. He would sleep for several days at a time and was kept alive during the spells by means of forced feed ing. At the time MT. O'Malley left. they were about to try a serum dis covered by one of the doctors and of which great thing were expect ed.-DawsOn News.

London.-TransatlantiC gambling, which went out of existence during the war, when the gamblers were unable to get accommodations on the liners. has broken out again in full strength this year.
 Judging from the accounts, there are more skiuful operators on the ocean this summer than ever before, and steamship companies, while rot denying the presence of sharpers, say all they can dJ is to warn pas seugers against the folly of playing cards with persons they do not know.

CHAIRMAN HULL TO BEGIN
1924 CAMPICN With
JACKSON DAY
DINNERS.

C0rdell Hull, Chairman Dem
ocratic National Committee, ha
taken the initial steps for tn,
holding of Jackson Day dinners
on or about January 8, through
out the United States in order tt
promptly and properly utiliz'
the fruits of the recent Demo
cratic victory and to initiate th'
Democratic Presidential cam
paign of 1924.
He also suggests that othel
Democratic anniversaries anG
appropriate occasions be utilized
in the same way.
Chairman Hull had addressed
a lettet to Democratic National
Committeeman and state and
county chairmen suggesting
that Jackson Day be made the
occasion for gatherings of Demo
Gratis in every section as a means
of inspiring members of the
party to keep alive the eternal
principles and sound policies OF
the Democratic party and to re-
new their activity for the restor-
alton of that party to complete
power in 1924.
He intends, so far as it lies in
his power, that the Democratic
Party in the nation shall be a
militant party. and there can be
no more appropriate time to in
fuse the spirit of militancy into
party organizations everywhere
than on the birthday of the
greatest of the militant Demo-
cratic party leaders.
Recognizing the great part
played by the press of the
country in the recent campaign
under his national leadership,
Chairman Hull is desirous of the
fullest cooperation between
party leaders and the Democratic
press in making the forthcoming
Jackson Day dinners the great
est success of the kind in the
history of the party. He be
lieves that the keynote of victory
in the 1924 campaign is a united
democracy. From the beginning
of his Craftsmanship he has de-
voted much Of his time and
ability to bringing together
every discordant element and
fusing them into a harmoni-
GUS whole. The results of the
election bear evidence of the
soundness and success of this
organization policy.
If the plans of Chairman Hull
for the Jackson Day dinners
throughout the nation shall be
carried out in the manner in
which they are conceived. the
leading Democrats Of the nation
as well as Democrats of local
prominence will be speakers on
this great occasion, and with the
aid of the press, both in pro.
noting the dinners and in re.
porting the results. the cam.
paign of 1924 will be initiated in
a manner to inspire genera
party activity. prophetic of ma
tional victory.

FORMER JACKSON COUNTY
CITIZEN CELEBRATES
SEVENTY SIXTH
BIRTHDAY.

The Bonham Favorite, pub
lished at Bonham, Texas, gives
the following write-up of the
celebration of the seventy sixth
birthday of Scott Fox, a former
residence of Jackson County.
Friday morning, Septembr
10Th, 1922. the children and
grand children of Scott Fox
were seen vending their way to
the old home to celebrate the
18th birthday of their father and
grandfather with a great and
good dinner. Several of his old
time friends who love to eat
good meals were present just to
help celebrate and enjoy with
Mr.. Fox that good dinner pre-
pared at the 18th mile poat of
his life's journey.
Mr.. Fox is one of the family
[of sixteen children. Thirteen
are dead and three are living.
one brother B. A. Fox, who will
be ninty-seven, November 10th,
one sister. Mrs. Peggy DeJourn-
EFT, who is eighty-one years old.
]. W. S. Fox has been married
twice, and both wives are dead.
His first wife was Miss Cynthia
Jane Whitefield and his second
wife was Miss Callie Allison.
There were two children by the
first wife, one is living and the
other dead; by the second wife
there were seven children one of
whom is dead. There were
six Of his children present at
the dinner. He has hae twenty.

The friends present at the
dinner were 2. B. Tate, DIR. Gill
and wife and granddaughter.

7. J. Self and wife.
Mr.. Fox has been in bad
health for several years, and his
fingers are drawn with rheuma-
tism until he cannot open his
hands. He has suffered so
much that he can hardly walk.
He was born and lived in
Tennessee until 1887 when he
moved to Texas. He came to
Texas a poor man, but by hard
work and good management of
his business he now has plenty
and a good living a head. Mr..
Fox is one of the best citizens of
our county and we hope he may
live to have several more
birthday dinners and we will be
called upon to help celebrate.
The children will ever remember
grandpa's birthday.

Bright Prospects For Burr

Nov. 27, 1922.

closing one of the most success
full fall terms in its history
The present enrolment is far ir
excess of that of any previous
fall term within the decade. A
number of states are represent.
ed, among the Alabama, Georg.
ia, Mississippi, Oklahoma, anC
Ohio. Among the Tennessee
pupils, excepting Van Burer
County, Warren County has the
largest representation. White
County is second, and jackson
County third. Nashville has
five boys in the school and the
number will be increased after
Christmas.
Doubtless the schools facili-
ties will be taxel after Christ
mas, but every possible effort
is being made to meet the de-
mands. A commodious house,
formerly the Molloy residence,
ideally situated near the college,
is being converted into a girls
dormitory. This building To-
gether with the regular girls
boarding hosue ajacent the cam
pus and the board to be in pri-
vate families, will afford i'm
proved advantages and protec.
ton to girls and young ladies.
The dormitories for young men
will be repaired and particular
pains taken to provide for pupils
comming from a distance. A
water system will be installed
for the college. building during
the holidays for the special
benefit Of the Domestic Science
Department which is just being
added to the course.
A permanent change in the
course of study designed to give
the school a higher rating
among institutions of learning
in the state will be adopted in
January. With a few slight
changes the curriculm will be
made to include two full years
of regular college work. This
will give the school rating as a
fully accredited junior college.
Heretofore the institution has
never had full recognition of the
actual work done save as the
character of its graduates has
attested it. The change now
proposed will direct attention to
the solid work Burritt College
is doing.
The Bible Department is an
important feature of Burritt
College. More than half the
pupils are enrolled in the Bible
classes which recite daily. This
work, together with the prayer
meeting, the Sunday School and
the regular Lords day service
afford pupils exceptional spirit
ual exercise and advantages.
AS a result few boarding schools
have as high moral and spirit
ual standard as Burritt College.
Therefore it is easy to account
for the fact that nearly all the
pupils are members of the
church and some of the young
men are preparing for the
ministry.
Discipline in the school is kline
but unyielding. The institution
regards it as a sacred duty tt

pupils intrusted to its care 5anC
