Teachers Meeting.

The last regular meeting of the
County Teachers Association will
be held in the Brookhaven Graded
School Building Friday evening,
April 18th. An interesting pro-
gram is in course of preparation.
1t will consist of music, instru-
mental and vocal, elocution, and
addresses by some of the leading
teachers of the county on impor-
tant school work. We also hope
to have an address by promi-
nent educator from another part of
the State.
1t is very important that the
teachers of the county be present
at this meeting if they are at all
interested in their profession.
The State Teachers Association
will convene in Vicksburg, April
30th, and we ought to form
plans for having full delegation
of Lincoln county teachers present
at that meeting.
Respectfully,

When you have your prescrip-

When a doctor gives you a pre-

the place he tells you to and you
will save money. You have a
right to take it any where. We
would like to fill it for you at cut
rates. Frank Martin 90.
The Cut Rate Drug Stores bus
ness is growing. The people
show that they appreciate our
efforts to give them low prices on
drugs. Are you giving them any
of your business?
There is no good reason why a
doctor should insist on his pre-
scriptions being filled at any par
tieular place. We believe that each
drug store has a competent pre-
scription clerk and when the doc
tor instructs you where to take it
he has something ''up his sleeve"
and is not doing his patient JUS
tice. The Cut Rate Drug Store
has nothing under cover but their
low prices.
