Washington, Oct. 25.-How much

The amount of hard cash con.

spective organizations handling the

There arc two reasons why the
outlay this year will not be so law
ish. President Coolidge is by ma
ture not merely thrifty but frugal.
The keystone of his campaign is
the slogan. Economy and common
sense" He insists that his mana
gers shall practice what he breaches.
The second reason is even more
compelling. Contributions are not
so lavish. There is ample cash, but
there is no barrel. Possibly the
reserves are merely being tapped
as the amounts are needed so the
Borah report may not be damaag-
ing. Every effort is being made
to keep the fiscal report in shape
to Justify the claim that Coolidge,
III his campaign as we'll as in his
personal expenditures, is the "hard-
boiled economizer" he has been
dubbed by Senator Capper of Kan

turn the right flank of the opposing

General WI, it was believed here,
apparently determined to try for a
quick final decision on his war on
General Chang, by assuming the Of

GENTLY were unaware of the recent

the armies of General Chang Tso-

Hing VA Pel-fu, military head OF
the Picking government, has led to
the assumption that Manchurian and
military chieftains have reached an
agreement. This assumption gave

No. /, Of Smyrna, proud of their rec
ord for the past forty years of eff
ficient service in this community, and
appreciating the financial and mater
ial support of our people so generous
ly bestowed in the past, now come be-
fore the public asking financial as
sistance in their enterprise of estab-
fishing an up-tO-date fire house in
Smyrna, thus putting our town abreast
of other progressive towns, and en-
couraging our firemen to still higher
ideals Of service in saving life and
property. We have procured a fine
site and building centrally located on
Commerce street, opposite Market
street, and to remodel this property
into a modern fire house will entail
an expense of several thousand dol
lars. AS our organization is cOmpos-
ed of volunteers only, we are cOmpell-
ed to ask for subscriptions to help de-
fray the expense of purchase and re-
modelling the property acquired. We
therefore earnestly solicit as generous
a response on the part of our citizens
as their financial circumstances will
permit. At a recent meeting of the
House Company a committee of three
was appointed to organize and plan a
campaign for contributions, and said
committee has authorized ]. E. HOf-
fecker to act as solicitor for the Hose

CENTURY CLUB TO GIVE PLAY
"NIr. and Mrs. Polly Tick, a Three
Act Home-Talent Drama, Friday Night

"NIr. and Mrs. Polly Tick, a Three
Act Home-Talent Drama, Friday Night
What promises to be a very inter
esting and entertaining home-talent
comedy drama will be given at the
Smyrna Opera House Friday evening.
When the curtain rises on the open
ing scene, the audience behOlds Father
Time and Dame Fashion discussing
the approaching fashions for men and
women. Father Time reads in his
record book of girls in hoop skirts and
polk bonnets as in the days of long
ago. Dame Fashion sees in her crys-
tai ball men in ruffled trousers and
frills-all of which will be portrayed
in an ensemble of music composed of
the entire cast. The time is 1878.
The women, since getting the ballot
have taken the reins of government
and gradually exchanged places with
the men. The women now dress in
mannish clothes and attend to practi-
cally all the business, leaving the men
at home to do the housewOrk, sewing,
darning, nursing, etc. The married
men dress in frills and furbelOwS, and
seem at the beginning of the play to
have lost all their masculine habits
and to have surrendered all of their
male attire except their pants, to
which they hold with bulldog ten
acity. The cast of characters will be
as follows:

A RECRETABLE INCIDENT

An article, was received by the
Herald this week which probably
might be of particular interest to peo-
pie of this community but unfortu-
nately no name was signed to the ar
ticle and the Herald does not, under
any circumstances, publish anony-
nous communications
We hope that this statement comes
to the notice of the person who took
the time and showed the judgment to
write the article sent us. We be-
lieve that he should be given credit
for writing this article as it shows
a good deal of consideration as well
as experience, and we believe should
be of considerable interest and bene-
fit as well to the community as a
whole. If the writer does not wish
to have his name signed to the ar
ticle, it is not necessary that it ap-
pear, but the Herald will not publish
anything when the source of infor-
nation is unknown to some one con-
nected with this paper. If the party
who wrote this article will come to
see us or write us, we shall be glad
to use the story as he has written it;
if not, we will re-write it, using his
ideas to a certain extent and it nat
urally will then be published as our
story, because we will have used our
own judgment and ability in produc-
ing it.
