The university official cited u numler of instances to show the protection afforded by the gov ernment such as through the fire department, police department, courts and other governmental divisions. Finished Product Plans for the first annual Hills boro Spring Opening and Dis play are rapidly rounding into shape, according to Jake Wei), ■ hairman of the retail trade com mitter of the chamber of com merce, which is in charge of the event. Other members of the committee are W. W. Boscow, Percy Long, V. W. Gardner, D. A. Kramer, Lee Oakes and L. 0. Selfridge. The event will be held March 22 and 23, starting with flares and simultaneous turning on of lights at 7:30 p. m. on March 22. All business institutions in the city are being asked to co-ope rate by being open that night to show people what they have in their stocks for Easter as well as in all lines. Visitors will be given tickets. There will be no selling the first evening, it being one of those times when people will get something for nothing. Gifts will be presented. The Argus will be one of those to hold open house and people will be shown about the newspaper i plant. The stores on the first night are to be open from 7:30 to 9:30 p. m. and the opening will be followed by a free radio street dance. There will be competition in window displays. The cost of the event is to be defrayed by sub scriptions from business house«. He compared the school sys tem with the lumber industry, the public schools were likened to the loggers, the high school to the cut-up, or the sawmill, and the colleges to the finished product or the pinning mill. One dollar of the $63 spent for education in the state goes to the university, he said, and would hardly seem logical to in any way interfere with the mill that turns out the finished product. The apeaxer stressed the all importance of the question of ed ucation as urged by his classmate, Herbert Hoover, in the inaugural address Monday. Before the war there were only 300,000 college students.

Acetylene Tank Explode« In Local Garage No. 2 Reeves Back Gasoline Storage As From Texas Result of Gas War Is With Woman Causing Some Protest Long Court Battle Ended In Southern State Officials Say Tanks in Many Cases Not Cared For in Twelve May Lose Eyesight Exact Condition of Sahnow Is Not Determined As Yet By Medicos Wilbert Sahnow, 25, Hillsboro garageman, was terribly injured about 2 p. m. Friday when a home-made acetylene gas tank, which he was attempting to re pair, exploded in the Sahnow Bros, garage on Main street, near Third. The injured man was ta ken to the Dr. E. H. Smith hos pital. Young Sahnow suffered burned eyes, a mangled left hand and a fracture of the left arm at the wrist. Both eyes were seriously burned and it is uncertain at present as to whether he will lose his sight. A leak in the bottom of the tank had Wilbert on the tank, and his brother, Gordon, who is associated with him in the garage business, was with him just a few seconds before the explosion. The injured man told his brother Monday that he had become wor ried and just started to get away when the accident occurred. The force of the explosion knocked another man down, who walked away when informed that , the tank-might explode. The young man is a son of Mr. and Mrs. Hugo Sahnow of Schef- flin.

McWhorter County Agent Cultivation is necessary for the longevity of alfalfa and for the securing of the largest yield of hay. Cultivate after each crop of hay, and the fall after the first rains have softened the soil to a depth of a few inches. Do not try to cultivate too deeply. Two to three inches of the top soil is enough to loosen. Where cultivation has been omitted in the past, soils in al- lafa fields may have become firm and badly covered with grasses making cultivation very difficult during the dry season following the cutting of crops of hay. In cases of this kind alfalfa may be cultivated in the fall immediately following the first rains and after the last cutting of hay has been removed, or such fields may be cultivated in the early spring if the ground becames dry enough before the alfalfa start.« grow- (Continued on Pave Fourteen) Tax Collection Is Started By Sheriff The tax rolls have been turned over to Sheriff J.
