The following beautiful eulogy of
Mississippi and Mississippians is from
the Okolona Messenger, and as the
editor is from Kansas he Is supposed
to speak from the book. 1t is worthy
of careful perusal:
Mississippi is great common
wealth of happy homes. The people
are doing well, consequently are con-
tented and happy. The soil is fertile,
the climate mild and healthful, the
winters are short, the summers pleas
ant, and with market on every side
all kinds of business is profitable;
hence the people Of the State are
satisfied and propose to live and die
in Mississippi They are proud of
the State and cherish its grand memo
ries with grateful devotion. They love
its laws, revere its institutions and
are loyal to its government. No State
in the Union possesses so many ad-
vantages, and they appreciate the fact.
They are charmed by the grandeur
and picturesque beauty of its scenery,
and never tire of the splendid piano.

into the dim distance until the earth
and sky meet and hold each other in
fond embrace. To this land is invited
the immigrant from the ice-bound
Businesses North, the flooded fields of
the Middle States and the malaria
breeding swamps of the Eastern
South. Come back to our patronizing
sunshine, turn our generous soil and
grow rich from its bountiful yield.
Come and build you home for old
age, where your declining years will
pass as a pleasant dream, and your
posterity will rise up and call you
blessed"

is necessary is to get the project in
the hands of business people who have
some idea as to how such institutions
should be handled. Nothing could be

to greater effort than a good fair and

this, six cars sold were not reported
and about $500 worth of express ship

this amount of business was done the

concerned. More people are engaging
