HIGHWAY ROUTE with the commiaaioners in session s their regular meeting place, while i mast meeting was In progress at tin oourthouse. Commissioner Brett, wh< is working for the Vann corner sought to haee the town body mee jointly with the citixens at the court house, the latter meeting being pre tided over by attorney John E. Vann and including several workers foi the route via Vann't corner. The propoaal met with no favoi among the other town authorities and it was voted to remain at theii headquarters and transact business aa usual. Tha ordinary routine bus iness was daspatched, immediately following which Mr. Henry Tayloi called for the thing that started the arguments. Mayor Thad Euro, sensing what was in tha air, quickly called upon a chairman pro tern, and read the pe tition which had been lodged with the highway authorities and which condemned the selection of the cor ner at the bank, ut the same time ask ing for a route via Mr. Vann's home. A letter was also produced which had been written as a protest against the commissioners' action. The letter and petition had been turned over to the town board by the highway authori ties, and Mr. Taylor and others knew it Beading into the letter a reflection upon his motives and purposes, May or Thad Euro defended the action of the commissioners and himself, and reviewed the propoganda that had since that time sought to undermine what had been officially done in the former town meetink His talk was the signal for further heated discus sions and in quicki succession it came forth. Some spoke -'calmly and reas oned the thing out to suit themsel ves, while others "walked the dog." It was by far the warmest session of level-headed men seen in the county seat town for some time. Attorneys Jno. E. Vann, W. Dare Boone, and Roswell C. Bridger spoke in behalf of the Vann corner, and Mr. Vann censured the commission ers for refusing to meet with the citiiens at the courthouse. Attorney C. Wallace Jones, Mayor Eure and civilian Henry Taylor upheld the oth er side. Others also edged into the controversy, and arguments almost reached the stage of personl venom. In the meantime, many of those who had gone to the courthouse be gan to gather about the meeting place of the commissioners. Some stood in the doors, others crowded in the.lit tle room, and still others packed the sidewalks aroung the meeting place. Both men and women were there to soeak tin for their choice. The whole affair, a kind of tem pest in a teapot, resulted in nothing. The thing remained in stotos quo. Now, both sides are claiming a vic tory.

DON'T SCRUB SILVER USE M&DERN METHODS "If your silver is tarnished and you would like to clean it with very lit tle effort, put into a bright clean aluminum pan and one teospoonful of soda and one of salt," says Mrs. Jane S. McKinnon State Agent in the Home Demonstration Work. Let the water cover the silver and it will on ly a short while before it emerges bright and shining." "When the tarnish is removed wash in hot soapy water and rub with a soft cloth. Silver is tarnished by the sulphur from gas and from coal or more frequently by certain foods which contain silfur and is eas ily cleaned by this method." The aluminum pan method of clean ing does not injure, the silver in any way," states Mrs. McKinnon, "and is easier by far than the old way of scrubbing. When the silver is put into the phn it rests on an aluminum base which is to ascertain extent like an electrode and action takes place be tween the metals and the chemicals used. When paste or powder is used for cleaning there is danger of the scratching of the silver but it gives a satiny finish that is very beautiful and frequently the housewife will use a soft clean cloth with a bit of the paste to produce this effect after she removes the tarnish with the al uminum pan process."
