DON'T WAIT.
Be Certain of Your Copies to Send
To Friends.

The special Magazine Edition
of The Leader will, if no unfore-
seen delay occurs, appear about
Feb. 17th. Orders for extra
copies are coming in right along,
and there is no way of estimating
intelligently the possible demand.
Certainly all who order in adj
vance will receive copies, and a
reasonable number will be printed
to supply the likely demand. But
we may be figuring this too low.
At any rate, the only safe way
is to order now, and not take
chances on their being enough.
We will print not less than 4, 900
copies. OF this number over
$500 have already been arranged
for to reach subscribers and others
nearby, and to fill orders already
received. We will willingly
print 5000 if there is a demand to
Justify it, but the work is too ex-
pensive and the margin of profit
too small to produce an extra
1000 on a chance of their being
wanted.
The edition will contain over so
photos; will have many special
articles descriptive Of the city and
county and will be greatly appre-
ciated by any friends to whom
home people send copies.
The price is only ten cents a
copy.
Gut out and fill in the below cou-
pom and forward it with the money
and names to The Leader Office.
In this way you will not only
save the postage; but be absolute
ly sure Of receiving copies. There
is no way to estimate the possible
demand, and the edition may be
exhausted the day of publication.

Business Mems Club.

A special train of five cars con-
tanning about ninety members of
the Business Mems Club, of
Memphis, Tenn, and some thirty
friends, passed through Brook
haven shortly after one O'Clock
Monday afternoon. The club was
returning to Memphis, via jack
son, and Yazoo City, having
toured the Valley road to New Or
leans, with the idea of promoting
trade relations with Memphis,
The trip will occupy a week,
Regrets were expressed at the in
ability of the club to give Brook
haven proper time, and a return
visit was promised at some time
in the future.
Mr.. John w. Bailey, of grocery
fame, president of the club, was
in charge of the party, assisted by
Messrs. Phil Pigeon and A. C.
James, also club officials, and
proud possessors of the most geni-

FROM EDGAR.

Our folks are clearing up new
ground, splitting rails, sowing
oats and rolling logs; just like
they expected to farm again this
year.
Hon. w. j. Williams certainly
believes in expansion; he has al
ready two days log rolling and
has enough of good grub and tim
Der to make out another days

We regret to say that Mrs. Sal
lie Greer, one of our best women,

of illness. While her condition is
precarious, her recovery is hoped
for.
We are beginning to believe
that Scarborough is candidate,
but we are fooled sometimes;
therefore we will watch about his
place for the "horse shoe" sign
for good luck.
We have heard it said it is
surely poor public school that

In an alteration between Mon

The mule and buggy with
which Tom Boutwell, escaped

longed, was found in the woods a

The mule, harnessed to the buggy,
had starved to death, where the
buggy had hung to tree. 1t is
evident that the Boutwell, brothers
knew nothing of its whereabouts
until found by negro, who re-
ported the fact of his discovery.

Died-On Tuesday, Feb. srd,
at the home of her daughter, Mrs.
[. S. Hoggatt, Aunt Parnecia Ray
received the message of death, and
accordingly departed this life.
Aunt Parnecia was born Dec. 20,
1920, and was as will be seen, 80
years old. She was the widow of
John Ray, who received the sum-
mons 10 years ago. She has been
an invalid for seven years, and has
been compelled to keep her bed
for a year. She was buried at
the Little Bahala cemetery, Feb.
5th, Rev. w. r. Webber conduct
ing the funeral rites. Three
daughters mourn her death.
Aunt Parnecia was the last of a
large family. Her sister, Aunt
Amanda Price, was called to that
eternal Homeo short while
ago, and now they are enjoying
a rest after having completed
life's work. They were devout
Christians, and one writer of old
has said: ''Whom the Lord low
eth he taketh unto himself imme-
Idiately,'' to which we feel like
adding the words of another
writer: .'Those for whom God
has special work to do are spared
to complete it. = To the bereaved
we extend our heartfelt sympath-
les. For eve are willing to be
absent from the body, and present

whitworth College Concert.

The mid-session concert at
w hitworth College last Thursday
night met with cordial interest
on the part of our people, as was
manifest by the immense au-
dience that attended in the col
lege chapel. The rendition of the
program was very meritorious;
and the pupils, both instrumental
and vocal, reflected decided credit
upon their teachers. Of course,
the town pupils" were special
objects of interest, if not anxiety; :;
and the singing by Mrs. M. I.
Flood and Miss Nellie McGrath
met with decided favor. Miss
Eunice McCalip also gave a num-
Der, with violin obligato. The
piano playing by Miss Floyd Will
Iougbhy and Miss Louise Germa-
ny could hardly be surpassed by
girls Of their age.
Among the college pupils prop
er we cannot distinguish, except
in one instance Rock Of Ages"
by Miss Winnie Mckee, held
every listener. Miss Mckee
gives promise of proficiency, and
manifested native vocal talent of
a high order.
After the concert the authori-
ties permitted just fifteen rare,
brief minutes of social inter
course; and then "there was hur-
rying to and fro" and "too sweet,
too beautiful to last" the fair
college maidens filed out to dream
of what had been or what might
be, and awakened at last, no
doubt, to what must be and
now is.
The pupils in elocution bright
ened the program perceptibly
and to their teacher, Miss Ford,
as well as to Mrs. Willoughby and
Misses Weston and Jones, the
thanks of the community are due
for a pleasant evening.

Birthday of the Methodist Church.
The ladies of the Methodist
church scored an unprecedented
success at the home of DR.. j. T.
Butler on Rriday night last. The
weather was q" dreadful" but
the faithful and enthusiastic
women, with the sunshine of faith
and hope in their hearts, went
ahead undaunted and we're re-
warded by an accession of Sill to
the church treasury. 1t was the
birthday of the dear old church
that has passed away, like many
of its pioneer members; little
silken sacks had been enclosed ia
each invitation asking for a cent
for each of the 45 years of its life
and who among Brookhaven's re-
sponsive people, could turn away
from such a plea? The OFFERINGS
came from many donors who were
kept away by the weather; and so
the ladies were rewarded, in part,
fo2 their splendid efforts on be-
half of the occasion.

cordial thanks of all interested
went out for their generous and
elegant hospitality,
