Tie poorest kid in town can he
raised with silver spoon in his mouth

Mcssrs. Jones and Purscr say That
10 time since the show business OPEN
cd has there been such Il rush of pa

cause he isn't that kind OF q young

The ladies' Of the Presbyterian
church speak Of erecting a monument

our citizens. Other churches that have
received his pastoral care would give
something to the cause.
As water pure and unadnltcratcd 10
one of the principal adjuncte TO health,
would il not he wise for our board Of
mayor and aldermen to give the boys

Of amusement at the same time health
full, provided the parents restricted
the time OF bathing. Everything tend
ing to promote the health OF Wesson
should be encouraged.
While Crystal Springs, Brookhavcn
and Hazlchurst are bcautifying their
parks, Wcsson should make effort to
get one and not be behind in tho race.
