A Hard Luck Record.

Richard Luze, driving his car to
town, skidded into a telephone pole.
Coming back with the garage man to
clear up the wreck he found thieves
had stripped it of tires and fixtures.
Walking home in the rain two high
waymen with howitzers took all his
cash, watch and his package of plug
cut away from him. Finally reaching
home LuZe discovered lightning had
struck the barn killing a $3.50 Missouri
mule and that the hired man had lit
out with the family savings amounting
to $40. This made Luze loser five
times in one day.-Capper's Weekly.

WHY { D
is WOOD ALCOHOL
FATAL 80

THERE is not single property of
4 wood alcohol, except its poisonous
effects, by which anyone but chemist
can distinguish between purified
wood" and the ordinary or grain"
alcohol. The appearance, odOr and
taste of the two are so strikingly
alike that even chemists swho have
unable by these properties to distin-
guish between them with certainty.
This difficulty is greatly increased
when flavoring matter or colOring ma
terial of any kind is added.
The action of wood alcohol upon
the human or animal organism is,
however, entirely different from that
of ordinary alcohol. When the latter
is taken into the body it is rapidly
converted into wafer and carbOnic
acid gas-harmless substances Of
which any excess is promptly elimina-
ted by the kidneys and lungs. Wood
alcohol, on the other hand, is not so
changed. 1t remains in the body for
considerable time and is slowly made
over into formic acid, a poison which
is found in the bodies of ants. This
poison, together with another from the
same source-formaldeh ldehyde-attacks
the brain and other organs. causing
blindness or death. These effects have
resulted from as small d dose as two
teaspoonfuls of the poison and
chemists agree that 1t is as impossible
to produce non-poisonOus wood
alcohol as it is to make a harmless
prussic acid.

Nashville, Tenn. Elaborate prepar-
ATOMS are being mace at Vanderbilt
University Tor the formal opening of
the new Dudley Stadium, which will
be christened October IA, with a great
intersectional football game between
Vanderbilt and the University of Mich
igan.
The big athletic structure at Van
derbilt, the first modern concrete and
steel stadium built in the south, IL
now practically completed, and when
finished in every detail will seat
$4,000 spectators and will cost in the
neighborhood of 100000. 1t will serve
besides an athletii ampitheater and
field as a memorial to the late DR..
William L. Dudley of the university
faculty, father and chief patron and
promoter of Vanderbilt athletics and
long time president CT the Southern
intercollegiate Athletic Association.
AS the picture shows, the stadium is

the big structure more than thirty

are total of 434, occupy the space

the games. This structure will bear
the name of Walter o. Farmer, noted
Nashville sportsman, who gave $4,000
as a special subscription to make Dos
sible its erection.
One of the finest features On che
new stadium is the modernly con-

Much incidental interest attaches to
the opening game for the reason that
McGugin and Yost, contending coach,
es, are old pals, former pupil and
coach, brothers-in-law, and died-in-ths

Other incidental features of the
opening game which are expected to
attract to Nashville a crowd that will
fill the big stadium are alumni and
athletic stars reunions, rail excursions
and automobile parties from nearby
towns and cities, and many social
events in Nashville clubs homes and
paternity houses at Vanderbilt.

STATE HAPPENINGS
TOLD IN BRIEF
THE HAPPENINGS OF A WEEK IN
TENNESSEE PREPARED FOR
OUR BUSY READERS.
TOLENGTHEN SCHOOL TERMS
Rural Schools Have Average Term Of
1877 Dsys-Expect Seventy Coun-
ties to Increase Session.

ashville.-Tennessee rural schools
will have longer terms this year than
ever before, So counties having report
ed to the state educational department
plans for extending the number of days
school will ~ in session. Between
90 and 20 cot1ts1s. are expected to in
crease the term.
The So counties in 192O-2l had an
average term Of 119 days. The aver.
age last year was 1872 days and this
year the average will be 13 7days.
This increase is largely due to the
increased state aid now given the sew
eral counties and the basis on which
this aid is apportioned. Under the
acts of 1921 each county is required to
maintain term of at least five months
before it can share in the state equal
izing fund. During the scholastic year
l920-21, before this law was effective,
the school term in IA counties was
less than 100 days. During the past
year it was less than 100 days in only
one county, and during the present
not one county will fall below this
minimum.
1t is fast developing into race be-
tween the smaller counties to see
which can get out of the minimum
To-day column. All of the IS counties
reported to date have succeeded in
getting out of this class and it is ex-
pected that the remaining 40 will be
equally fortunate.
