Our advertisement that appears in
the telephone directory was written
by Miss Ruth Dahnke, of the Com
mercial Department of the Union
City High School. If you have not al
ready read it, do so now. We e1-
pected to have her name in the ad-
vertisement, and are sorry that it
was overlooked.
The boys and girls of Obion and
nearby counties are our friends Just
as twenty thousand older folks who
eat our products every day, and who
are anxious to see the packing house
succeed.
We want to take this occasion to
thank every individual of this entire
territory for their friendship and
patronage, which have made it pos
sible for us to make the splendid
showing that we have so far done.
Everybody realizes what all new en-
terprises have been up against fer the
last few years and that to live aid
make substantial growth in bust
ness is a wonderful success.

Street Talk.


We are publishing this week al
article concerning grade crossings
which should be read by everybody
OF course there are numbers who viii
pay no heed to its Importance. But
there are some who are sensible
enough to give it some thought.
Union City has some dangerous
crossings and that is the reason we
are publishing the article. Union
City was originally railroad station
When the town grew large enough to
require municipal utilities the sens1-
BILE and practical thing would have
been to move the business houses
away from the crossings, say up on
the hill towards Eastview and tnere
install the waterworks and lighting
plant. But as in other things the
business men refused to see the posi-
bilities, just as they have persistently
refused to build paved road to
Gibbs, and Union City is still rail-
road station with all the earmarks,
while the rival burgs, those on the
l. c. R. R., have been passing us
up as harmless.
But back to the grade crossing:
We have one that is especially troub-
lesome and frightfully nasty. The
dust and confusion on Church street
is almost enough to keep the ordinary
pedestrian from coming downtown.
The proprietors and guests of the
Palace Hotel, very wisely, we pre-
sumo, refrain from making the COM
ments that sometimes all but speak
for themselves. 1t is not practical
now to eliminate the crossing, so the
next best thing to do is Stop!
look and listen'-otherwis to use
discretion and Judgment in driving
over the Church street or any other
crossing here or any where else.
However, we are not going to al
low this comment to end without say
ing that we still have great hopes for
Union City as an interior metropolis.
This paper has never quit advocating
a paved road to Gibbs, and unless
some organization takes it up in a
year or two and sees that the work is
accomplished The Commercial will
undertake the job alone. We have
all the advantages in the world as a
county and townsite, and there is no
reason in the world why we should
not realize on these natural advan-
tages. All that is needed is little |
vision and the active application of a
little liberality and horsesense.
AS much as we need paved streets |
in Union City, and as much as we are
convinced that it is wholly necessary |
to lay pavements of approved quality
and standards in the business Sec
lions of this city-if it were ques-
ton of having one or the other, we
submit that paved road to Gibbs
would pay in commercial and bust
ness returns ten times what the city
street improvements would bring.
But we can have both and we must
have both, and if Union City business
men come to their senses, after the
business streets have been paved, we
will begin to pave the road to Gibbs.
A paved road to Gibbs means that
we are on three roads instead of
two and that we have moved to the
greatest trunk line in the South
when we connect with Gibbs with a
paved road. Nothing less than a first
class paved road will answer the
purpose. The road must be built for
heavy truck travel What say? ii

Caleb Moberly Meets
Violent Death in Fall

Caleb Moberly, eldest son of Lind.
sey and Hattie Moberly, deceased,
while gathering cherries at the Joe
N. Henry place in the suburbs Of the
city, on Lexington avenue, Saturday
noon fell from cherry tree heavily
laden with fruit, breaking his neck,
causing instant death. Young Mob
erIy was well related, was fifteen
years old and was a youth of prom
ise. Young Moberly was Industrious,
full of pep and his anxiety to serve
and to add to may have led to his
death. He is survived by one bro
ther, William Moberly.
Funeral services we're conducted
Sunday afternoon at his home, the
residence of Mrs. Lucy Russell, cor
ner of High and Sycamore streets,
by Rev. Charles A. Ray, of the Pres
byterian church. Following the ser.
vices the body was buried in Mach
pelah cemetery. Floral contributions
were numerous, rare and an indica'
ton of the fact that the deceased had
many friends who believed in him as
a boy of enviable principle whose life
would have been worth much.
Rev. Ray in his sermon based on
the text, BE ye also ready, for al
such a time as you know not the

become beneficiaries of this free gift
The Boy Scout order attended the
funeral service in a uniformed body

of his associates that while In health
they are present with death and thai
to them the thing most important tc

Fayette Circuit
Judge is Dead

William Worthington, SO years old,
judge of the Fayette circuit court,
died yesterday afternoon at st. JOS
ephs Hospital, Lexington, following
an operation for galistones. He was
taken to the hospital a week ago,
but had been i'll for several weeks,
several times being forced to relin-
quish the bench, to which he was
elected last November.
His widow and two sons, William
and Frank, survive him.
Judge Worthington was son of
w. j. Worthington, who was lieuten-
ant governor in the administration
of Governor w. o. Bradley. He en-
tered the University of Kentucky in
1896 and later was a student at
Georgetown University, Washington.
He studied law in the Offices of
Breckenridge and Shelby and in 1897
was admitted to the bar. For three
years he was with the law firm, but
in 1900 began the practice of law
for himself and handled principally
real estate and title cases. Judge
Worthington was born and reared in
Greenup county.
For a number of years he served
as referee in bankruptcy for the
Lexington district in the United
States court, the appointment having
been made by Judge A. M. ]. Coch-
ran.
Judge Worthington, the Republl-
can nominee, defeated former Con-
gresham w. p. Kimball, Democrat,
in the election last November. He
succeeded r. G. Stoll, who is now
serving as special judge. a

a man of genuine worth.
Will Clay was a man who loved
his family, his home, his native peo-
pie, and often we have heard him say
after returning from a trip that the
happiest hour of his visit was when
he stepped off the train in old Mt.
Sterling, the city of his nativity, the
one place he loved above all others.
Though he loved his home city even
more did he love his people, and in
our long acquaintance with him we
have often heard him remark that
nothing gave him so much pleasure
as lending a helping hand to others.
His was a life of service, one well
spent, and in his departure this en-
tire section has lost one of its noblest
and best beloved citizens. To his
generosity possibly more than any
other that ever liyed within the con.
fines of Montgomery county, count
He was recognized friend TO those
in need, one with heart whose size
was only limited by his purse and in
the hour of need the first man to be
approached was always ]. Will Clay.
And although he had great conf
dence in and deeply loved his fellow
citizens, even more did he love his
home and family, where he was al
ways the idol, where he will ever be
missed, but where the imprint of a
noble and inspiring life will forever
leave it's imprint. And in his pass
ing we, together with the entire COM
munity, are deeply sorrowed, and ex-
tend to the grief-stricken widow. son
and brother heartfelt sympathy.
His life as youth, young man and
at its zenith was ever bright, so
cloudless that the sun was ever shin
ing through. This was the life of
Hon. ]. Will Clay from the cradle to
the grave. And now though his
loved ones are heartbroken and sor-
row-stricken, we hope they will find
surcease from their mourning In the

cULLiNG STANDARD AND MIXED
BREEDS OF POULTRY COMPARED

In Knox County, Ind, half the mum
ber of flocks of hens culled under the
supervision of the county agent, en-
ployed comparatively by the United
States Department of Agriculture, the
State Agricultural College, and the
county, were standard bred and the
other half mixed breeds, so their
comparative merits could be consid
cred through culling.
The standard bred flocks mum
bered 1887, while the 8 of mixed
flocks numbered 1,103, or 16 more
hens. The week before culling, the
standard bred hens laid 2,906 eggs
and the mixed breeds 2,547, or 1862
less. In culling, 314 standard bred
and 355 mongrel hens were removed
from the flocks, leaving 773 stan
dard bred and 1888 mongrels, or 35
more standard breds. Two owners
of the standard bred flocks. being
breeders, culled much closer than the
owners of the mixed flocks. The
week after culling the standard bred
hens laid 2.724 and the mongraels g.
433 eggs.
The figures show that among the
1857 standard bred hens there were
Al less culls than among the 1,1O3 of
the mixed flocks, and that they laid
S59 more eggs the week before cul-
ling and POI more the week after.
