Low DecoIIetage Returning.

a feature which has frequently been
commented upon recently is the very low
decolletage. 1t seems possible that the
Odd ''sponge bath backs" of three years
ago might return to give the fashion
writer's an opportunity TO call them
vulgar. Many OF the newest evening
frocks are cut In a deep v In the back,
and lattice work backs are appearing.
which might indicate that by the time
spring arrives the backless frock will
be with us again. Draped frocks look
well enough with this extremely low
decolletage. but It Is not style that
will go well with the simple little crepe
frocks. 1t is most evident, however.
that evening dresses are becoming more
elaborate. so there will no longer be an
occasion to talk Of the simple crepe
frocks except for afternoon wear
Afternoon dresses continue to be OF
crepes and nothing else. and their lines
can not be too simple. The dress which
has attracted tho most attention In the
Davidson collection, the new house
which had its opening last week, Is
made on the very simplest OF lines, be-
irg little more than a piece of ere
tied around the figure. 1t was de-

Anderson Loses
Whiskey

The people Of Anderson county are
very much wrought up over the pro-
posed removal from that county about
$4,000 barrels Of whiskey to other
places Of concentration The re-
moval will cost the county in the loss
Of taxes about $4,000 annually, TO
say nothing Of the stupendous loss to
the owners Of the warehouses. who
get large sums for storage and are
well paid for bottling and boxing.
We suppose the government figures
that IL this whiskey is not removed
soon from An ierson county there
won't be any Of IL left, so numerous
are the robberies at these warehouses.
Only last week a guard there was
bound and gagged and the warehouse
robbed Of about $4,000 worth Of
booze.
IL the county taxes on this whiskey
is worth $4,000 a year to Anderson
county. II would be good business for
the county to furnish guards against
such losses.

WHAT IS CHRISTMAS

Unless we look beyond the ex-
change Of gifts at Christmas we win
miss its true message.
The whole world pauses to eele-
brate the birth Of the Son Of God.
who came to save the world from its
sins
God asks in return our unselfish
service and complete surrender. The
Wise Men Of long ago brought their
richest gifts when they came to wor-
ship the infant Christ. They reeog-
nized the Babe as their ruler. A
we come 20 the Christmas season let
us consider how much Of ourselves
we bring as an Offering TO the Saw
Jour.
Christmas service in Prayer, Song
and Sermon at IL o'clock Sunday
morning.
The evening program will consist
Of special music and short talk on
India. beginning at 7:l5. At this
service we will have the opportunity
Of giving to the poor Of our COM
munity. and TO the mission work in
India. money to cause in India and
food for the poor in the community.
This will be followed by a Christ
mas tree in the Sunday School room
where all the children Of the School
will receive some little gift. and some
Of the grownups may find something.
at least they will all enjoy seeing the
children made happy.
An invitation to all next Sunday.

Road Law Invalid

The Court Of Appeals held on last
week that the Simmons road law, by
which il was proposed to spend $780,
600, 900 on the roads Of Kentucky
thru a commission headed by General
William L. Sibert, Of Bowling Green,
invalid because Of the fact that the
law named the members Of the pro-
posed commission. an executive act
done by the legislative body.
In a dissenting opinion Judge VIM.
Rogers Clay. Of Lexington. holds
that II the majority view is good. APP
pointment Of a state librarian or Of
the members Of the old prison boards
also would be illegal. and that the
correct view TO tale up such laws is
that appointment By the legislature
il valid II not prohibited specifically
by the constitution. or II not mani
testify an exercise of executive au-
thority. Judge Clay held that IL was
at times a difficult task to define ex-
aetly the line Of demarkation which
separates one ~ these departments
Of government Legislative. exeeu-
tive and judieiaD from the others.
The decision upholds the ruling Of
Judge Robert l.. Stout. Of the Frank
lin circuit court before whom il was
originally heard.

Tobacco Growers Pleased With

Manager George A. Brown has
been kept on the jump. since the
opening of the Burley Tobacco Grow
ers' house here. but everything Is
running smoothly and the growers
are more than pleased with the ad-
vances they are receiving on their
tobacco. About forty loads are be
ing unloaded each day with every
day this week Allied 20 capacity.
Garrard county tobacco is unusually
hns this year. with practically no
houseburn and very little damaged
u seen on the floors.
The growers are taking more pains
with the grading this year than las,
year and as a result are receiving
much better averages.
The list % grades and prices being
advanced on each grade indicate a
higher average for the 1922 crop than
was received for the 1921 crop. a por.
ton Of which has not been paid for
but for which checks will be mailed

Women Must Pay
Poll Tax in 1923

Beginning with the coming year
women will be required TO pay poll

other states where the same question

This viii mean that wherever poll
taxes exis, they will be required Of
women above legal age. In most
counties u Kentucky a poll tax Of
$3.50 is levied. to which nearly every
municipality adds an addition tax.
Neither jefferson county nor the city
