REFINEMENTS ADDED To
FORD ENCLOSED CARS.

Many added conyeniences and re-
finements are to be seen in the Ford
enclosed cars now being displayed by
the local dealer.
The interior of both the coupe and
the sedan is now finished in attractive
shade of walnut brown broadcloth;
and the seats are upholstered with a
similar material threaded with chalk
ed ebony-stripe. Heavy floor rugs
give an added touch to the comforts.
Lifts, of special design, minimize
the efforts Of raising and lowering
the windows. Both bumpers insure a
tighter fitting, and new door grips,
both inside and out, add to the riders
convenience.
The demand for Ford enclosed cars
has been unusually high during the
past two months. Although produc-
tion has been speeded up in the Ford
factory at Detroit, sales continue to
exceed the output, making it neces-
sary for purchasers in many parts Of
the country to wait for their cars. Lo-
cal dealers say this is the reason they
have been urging customers to place
their orders as early as possible.

w. C. T. u. TRIBUTE TO THE
LATE T. J. STRICKLIN.

That God doeth all things best, we
know full well, even though we cannot
understand His providences. God has
called a consecrated, sympathetic, al
ways faithful pastor and helper IN the
person Of Rev. T. y. StrickIin TO- be
at home with Him. He was ever a
loyal supporter and gave himslef in
unstinted service for the Woman's
Christian Temperance Union.
THEREFORE, Be it resolved, that
we bow in humble submission to the
will of the Heavenly Father who doeth
all things well. We note with sadness
the loss we have sustained and ex-
tend to his faithful wife and devoted
sons our deep sympathy in their grief
and commend them to our Heavenly
Father who alone can comfort.
Again in the going of our dear
brother we may realize the need for
more conservation on out part to the
cause we espouse, and may we try to
emulate the life of Brother Stricklin
in that he glorified the name of God
in every service he rendered and was
ever faithful to the trust committed
to him.
Be it further resolved, that we
spread copy of these resolutions up
on the Minutes, present one to the
family and one to each of the county
papers for publication.

MRS. JULIA LANCASTER,
MRS. VILLA STEWART.

]. G. CISCO DIES IN NASHVILLE.

We note with deep regret the death
of our old friend, Mr.. ]. G. Cisco,
which occurred in Nashville last
Monday, at the age of rs years.
In the middle eighties of the last
century Mr.. Cisco was a resident of
Jackson and his body was carried back
there for burial. In Jackson he was
the proprietor of a bookstore and la
ter published the Forked Deer Blade.
At one time Mr.. Cisco had dumped on
him the mail carrying contract be-
tween Lexington and Jackson, be-
cause of having gone on the bond of
the contractor and when we, in The
Progress, made some criticisms of the
tardiness of the arrival Of the mail
here over the execrable winter roads,
Mr.. Cisco said in his Blade that he
had heard that jackasses were good
beasts of burded and suggested that
the editor of the Progress be given a
trial on the Jackson Lexington mail
route. But we got to be great friends
and that friendship continued until
his death.
He was Of noble French birth or
close descent and was truly a noble
man by nature. One of the most in
dependent men we ever knew, one Of
the most intelligent, possessing the
highest sense of honor, and one Of the
most lovable. For many years at his
Nashville home he bought expensive
seeds and plants and grew flowers to
a 4
them to the rooms of sick people who
he knew and to the aged. He was alb
solutely without fear and on every oc-
casion and every subject was given
to expressing his honest convictions,
regardless of consequences. He left
three or four sons and two daughters,
but We never knew any of his family.
We trust that he has gone to enjoy re-
ward for his many kind deeds.

HILLS-TIMBERLAKE WEDDING.

A simple yet beautiful home we'd
ding was the ceremony at 800
o'clock, D. M, Wednesday, the 26th,
inst, in which Mr.. and Mrs. ]. R. Tim
berlake gave in marriage to Mr.. Wal
ter Hills, the hand of their youngest
daughter, Miss Alice. The marriage
was solemnized in. the Timberlake
home, on Maple Avenue and was Wit
messed by reatives and very few old
friends of the family, two of the in
vited guests having witnessed the
marriage of the brides parents.
The ceremony was impressively
performed by the Rev. R. M. Walker,
a former pastor of Lexington M. E.
hurch, South, and present presiding
Elder of the Jackson District.
The family dining room was beauti-
fully prepared for the ceremony, with
a marriage altar and arch and the
decorations were chaste and harmon
ious in lilies, rambler roses and green
foliage.
As the bridal party came down the
stairway, and during the ceremony,
Mrs. C. B. Jones, at the piano soft
ly played Believe me if all those en-
dearing young charms," and the re-
mainder of the musical program was
the rendition of the favorite songs,
"Oh, Promise Me- and II Love you
Truly" by Miss Elizabeth Hills, sis
ter of the groom.
The bride as well as her sister,
Mrs. Gill Gideon, Matron of Honor,
were beautifully and tastefully gown
ed, respectively, in gray and tan, the
sport" mode prevailing, the bride
carrying sweet roses and lilies of the
valley.
The bride was born and reared in
this community and we can not re-
frain from the use of that ancient ex-
preston htat she is a prize in the Mat
rimonial lottery. While possessing
manifold peronal attractions, she is
also amiable and intellectual, for not.
withstanding her youth, she was for a
period a member of the Lexington
High School teaching force. She is
jewel more precious than rubies" and
Mr.. Hills is one of the lucky men of
the world.
The groom is a son Of Mr.. W. ].
Hills, superintendent of the Paducah-
Memphis Division of the N. c. & st.
L. Railway and for more than a year
has himself filled with efficiency and
satisfaction to both the employing
company and his fellow workers the
responsible position of assistant
train master.
After the ceremony Mr.. and Mrs.
Hill boarded the North-bound train
for Atlanta and other points, via
Nashville, and on their return will be
at home in Lexington to their mary
friends.
0ut-of-town guests were Supt. and
Mrs. W. j. Hills, Of Paducah, parents
of the groom, and his sister, Miss
Elizabeth Hills; Miss Weatherall, of
Paducah, aunt of the groom, and Miss
Mary Barham, of Jackson, a first
cousin of the bride.
A notable incident Of the wedding
wos the presentation Of lovely string
Of pearls to the bride by Mrs. w. ].
Hills-a gracious act on the part of
the new mother-in-law.

John L. Sullivan, having resigned
the office Of County Register, having
received his commission and made his
bond as postmaster of this town, will
take charge of the office on the 1st

assumed the duties Of postmaster
sooner, but will take plenty of time to
let Mr.. Boswell check out and himself
check in. We can say for Mr.. Sulli-
van that he will do his best to make
an efficient and satisfactory postmas-
ter-for whatever his hands find to
do, he does conscientiously.

Belfast, April 2l.-The Catholic
protection committee tonight sent the
following telegram to Winston Spen-
Ger Churchill, secretary for the colo
nies, and Austen Chamberlain, gov
ernment leader in the House of Com

Belfast Catholics are being grad

murder, assault and starvation. Their
homes are burned, streets are swept
by snipers and life is unbearable.
The military forces are inadequate.
The special police are hostile.
The northern government either is
culpable of inefficient. Your govern

worse treatment. The last two days

OLD PERRYVILLE VERY
MUCH ON THE MAP.

The historic town of Perryville, on
the "Noble Banks of the Tennessee
while no longer a county site, as it
was in the early days of the county of
Perry, is a very live business point.
The town has two good dry-goods
stores, four groceries, one blacksmith
shop and garage, one excellent hotel,
one local produce business and in addi-
tion the c. H. Holcomb Produce
business of Lexington and the Porter
Holcomb Produce business, Of Par
ons buy at that point.
Perryville also has bank, the Bank
Of Perryville, of which Mr.. w, r.
Denison is cashier and Stanley .Denui-
son assistant cahier and book keeper.
The Bank Of Perryville has grown oy-
er 800 per cent. in volume in the past
three months. The capital stock IS
$l2,500s ~
One Of the important businesses Of
Perryville is the fact that 1t is ID a
distributing point for the Standard
Oil Company, of which w. R. Denni-
son as agent. The BUSINESS Of this con-
cern amounts to the sale and shipment
Of about 27,0O0 gallons of oil and gas
per month.
During the past Winter and Spring
including the months of December and
March, 68 carloads of hogs were ship
ped from Perryville and the sum or
S268,00 was paid out for hogs.
The enormity of the poultry busi-
ness is shown in the fact that on the
10th, the Bank of Perryville paid out
81 $50 on checks for poultry and eggs.
Peryville has long been a great
crosstie centre and when the late rise
came in the Tennessee river 10000
ties had to be moved to save them,
these ties representing value of
from 35c to SO cents each.
The old William Stout place on the
hill to the right, coming out the Lex
ington road, there is sugar pear
tree known to be 78 years old. The
aged tree was pruned to the body this
Spring and is coming out handsomely,
with the promise of further lease on
life.

H. c. L. DUE TO SIN.

Meridian, Conn.,, April 21.-Bishop
Thomas Nicholson of Chicago, ad-
dressing the New York East Metho-
dist Episcopal Conference today, said
that where the older generation did
their courting on the way to church
or prayer meeting, the present young
folk "adopt the way of Fatty Arbuck-
lie or Peggy Joyce" and attend resorts
"where the church is a joke and the
Eighteenth amendement a laughing
stock.
l.. f. Bower, of Chicago, before the
Laymen's Association of the confer
encer attributed the real cause of the
high cost of living to sin.
"Sin, in its broad meaning, costs
this country over 10 billion dollars an
nually,' he asserted, and added, "do
you realize that right in this great
Christian nation $4,000 are lost every
year and largely through CONNER

The announcement was not alto
gether unexpected. For several days
there have been rumors that Gov. Pat
terson would get out Of the race.
Though still retaining the support of
many of the friends of other days,
still some of Mr.. Patterson's closest
advisers, after a review of the field,
frankly admit that the chances were
not bright.
Gov. Patterson was contender for
the nomination six years ago against
Senator Luke Lea and X. ID. Nickel
lar. He lost to Mr.. McKellar. He was
Democratic nominee in 1913, but lost
in the disturbed condition of Tennes-
see politics, and the senatorship went
to John X. Shields. He was governor
of Tennessee in 1906 and again in
1908, the last time defeating Senator
Ed Carmack. ~ Commercial Ap-
