KNAPP LANDS m
COUNTY BAsT|LE

Johnny Knapp took a nip and was
nabbed by the cop, all on a Christmas
even-n-ing. Such is the story Of a
case that came before Justice Rice last
Monday afternoon wherein Geo. W.
Pearson, town marshal OF New Castle,
was complainant and John Knapp was
accused of having Intoxicating liquor
in his possession.
Knapp was arrested by Pearson last
Saturday while in an intoxicated con-
dition as hangover from Christmas
festivities. He had two bottles of
"white mule" in his possession and
poured part of the content of one of
them down Pearson 8 sleeve while the
officer seized the other bottle.
Brought into court, Knapp admitted
that the facts were against him, but
said he had bern drinking vanilla in
stead Of home brew, apparently for
getting that the law makes no dis
elimination in favor of one brand Of
liquor against another. He also ad-
mitted that he had had previous
court experience, not very creditable.
The court gave him $500 fine and
costs and thirty days in Jail.

STUDENTS Talk
At CHURCH SERVICE

r. We sometimes hear the statement
made these days that the young people
of this age are rapidly going from bad
to worse, both morally and spiritually,
and that the schools and colleges of
higher education are turning out many
students who are practically atheists.
This idea or statement can well be
refutfd, or at least cannot include the
majority of the students now attend
ing the state schools. At least that
is the idea gained from the talks given
at the Methodist church Sunday eve
ming by number Of local young peo-
pie who have been away to school and
have come in contact with the religious
influences.
The remarks Of the students were
preceded by a-special q program includ-

by Helen Blaine and 4 piano solo by

B0REAS CLOSES
MOUNTAIN PASSES

Although the state highway commis-
sion several weeks ago issued warz.
ing against further attempts to cross
the mountain passes during the winter
the custom continued with In
different success until the recent snow
storm completely blocked the roads TO
such an extent as to make further ef-
forts to negotiate the passes not only
foolhardy, but dangerous as well.
Heretofore in recent years there has
been more or less effort made to keep
Tennessee pass open all winter, thus
making it an all-the-yesr highway, bat
very few travelers availed themselves
Of the somewhat hazardous oppoftu-
nifty. Last winter, due to the faes
that the weather was milder than usu.
al, the efforts toward an open high
way were more successful than eves
before, but the expense was too heavy
and the risk was too great to make ..
auto trip over the range appear At
tractive to any but the most daring,
and it is probable that greater efforts
toward an open pass will be abandoned.
