IT ISN'T YOUR TOWN—IT’S
YOU
If you want to live in the kind of
! a town
That’s the kind of a town you
like,
You needn’t slip your clothes in
a grip
And start on a long hike.
You'll find ‘elsewhere what you
left behind, .
For there’s nothing that’s real
ly new,
It’s a knock at yourself when you
knock your town—
It isn’t your town—it’s you.
Real towns are not made by men
afraid
Lest somebody else get ahead,
When evérybody works and no
" body shirks
You can raise a town from the
dead. :
And if while you make your per
sonal stake
Your neighbor can make one
100,
Your town will be what you want
to see—
It isn’t your town—it’s you.

to Noah W. Cooper, of Nashville,
outlining the positign of she Mex

to Mexico by proposition made
by Carranza before treatry was
arranged. While discussing

SHERIFF ACCUSED IN THE
LAWLER CASE ENDS LIFE
Huntsville, Ala., June 23.
Sheriff Robert Phillips commit
ted suicide in a bed room of the
jail by shooting a bullet through
his brain. He left a note address
ed to his wife, saying that he had
been accused of having some part
in the murder of Judge Lawler,
and not trying to arrest the per
sons accused of the murder plot.
He declared that he was inno
cent in every respect, and had
done his utmost to land the ac
cused parties in jail, and that the
criticism had made his life un
bearable.
The sheriff had organized an
expedition to make a flying trip
to Whitesburg during the afeer
noon where it was reported that
one of the fugitives was in hiding.
He started out with the party but
returned to the jail, unknown to
Jailor Craig. The jailer heard
the shot and when he hurried
down stairs Phillips was lying
dead on the concrete floor with
blood gushing from the wound in
his head.
Sheriff Phillips had borne a
great deal of eriticism recently in
a very patient manner and, al
though he would not make a
statement, it was known to his
intimate friends that he was sick
and disgusted. Phillips was 56
years old, and is survived by his
wife, three daughter’s amd two
sons,
This is the second suiside
growing out of the recent murder
of Judge W. T. Lawler, 5 8
Pleasants, a lawyer, having com
mitted suicide a few days ago.
He also left a note saying he was
innocent of the suspicion which
had been directed against him.
