usual attainments, a man who hasj name to the big shoals in the Tennes

with Webster, and both spellings

The politicians claimed that it
would be an indication of the senti
ment of the people of the country
with reference to the Harding admin
istration. This may have been true
in small sections, but accurate indi
cations do not point to any upheaval
in Indiana against the Republican
party, certainly not enough to be ju
bilant over.

“MUSSEL” VS. "MUSCLE”
Attention is called by the Tifton
Gazette to the fact that it was the first
paper to protest against the “incorrect
spelling” of Mussel Shoals. Ala., which
has been much in the public eye of
late in consequence of Henry Ford’s
bid for lease of the great Alabama pro
ject. as well as the attempt of others
to obtain control of it. Remarking
that the newspapers spell “Muscle"
Shoals as though it were a muscle of
the body, and reproducing a Florence,
Ala., dispatch in which the original
spelling is recalled, the Gazette says:
The incorrect spelling probably
originated with some young fellow
sent by the government to make
that survey who had never heard
of a mussel, and therefore knew
of only one way to spell the name.
Uncle Sara has a few such men
working for him—those who think
they know it all, therefore never
take the trouble to learn. The er
ror has gone so far that, very
probably it will ne/er be correct
ed. It really wouid make little
difference were It not for the fact
that, because of the Incorrect
spelling the derivative of the
name is lost.
Still, the young fellow sent by the
Mr. and Mr«. H. L. Groover and Mias
Virginia Ann Groover returned Friday
from Griffin, where they attended the
funeral of Mr*. Groover's father, Mr.
D. H. Jenkins.
At the meeting of the school board
Monday evening the following teach

Lois O’Quinn were re-elected as high
school teachers.
