The name "fire blight" Is the proper

In the one case the pictures
introduced are unusually of such
adverse and brief duration that
they fail to interest at all, while
on the other hand the lecture at
tracts only a certain class of pa
irons, according to the subject,
and diverts the intellect only.
Shepard s Pictures consist of a
two hours continuous exhibition
of the finest and most elaborate
moving pictures that science
and artistic skill can produce.
The program, of unlimited
variety, is arranged to the most
pleasing advantage. entailing the
same painstaking skill required
to handle the plot and climaxes
of successful dramatic compo-
sition. 1t offers every form of
advertisement, happily comming-
ling comedy and pathos with
thrilling dramatic incident in
teresting historic episode, real
istic scenes of foreign travel and
notable events, with frequent in
cursions into the realms of poet
ic fancy, displaying the weird,
beautiful and fantasticaI The
entire entertainment is equally
amusing to all the churchman,
the clubman, the artisan, the old,
the young, all tentively relish
the same thrills and are alike
convulsed with mirth, lost in adj
miration, surrender sympathetic
tears, and SO on through the en-

Appropriate incidental music
and marvellous mechanical ef-

Mt. Vernon Notes.

EDITOR DISPATCH The peo-
pie of this section are about
through harvesting and were
anxiously awaiting the refresh
ing rains of the past week. IT'S
with great satisfaction that we
gather our crops, especially the
corn crop such as has not been
raised in our community for sew
eral years. The people of this
section are taking more pride in
the farm than in former years
and expect to farm more scien-
| tifically in the future than they
have in the past. Last August
the agricultural directors of the
A. & M. College we're invited to
hold an Institute at Mt Vernon
which they did and after the In
stitute was finished the farmers
met in conference and organized
d CIuO un0OI bLIC d1iAC VI AhO
Farmers Club of District No. 3,
and agreed to meet on the first
Saturday of each month at Mt.
Vernon or any other place to
which the club should be invited
thus giving to those who do not
live near Mt. Vernon a chance to
profit by the meetings.
Our school is progressing fair
ly well. The attendance of this
month is much larger than that
of last month, yet not so large as
we shall expect later. even the
latter half of this month, as some
have to remain at home to finish
picking cotton and do other mi
nor things pertaining TO the
farm.
This month brought some
changes in the faculty of our
school when Miss Nettie Ellis
took up the work of second as
sistant in the place of Miss Beat
rice Dawes, who left to teach the
Stanley school in the Caledonia
section. It was with sad hearts
that we parted with Miss Dawes
while we are very glad to have
Miss Ellis take up this work.
Miss Ellis makes very efficient
teacher and We feel that she will
use every possible means to help
perfect our work as high
school.
Our school has agreed to have
exercises consisting of recita-
tions. songs, ETC., every other
alternate Friday afternoon, each
department taxing it by turns.
Last Friday afternoon was the
time for those of the Principals
room to entertain. which they
did. Several visitors were pres
ent and seemed to be pleased with
the exercises. Everybody is
cordially invited to attend these |
exercises.

Gle. which was organized a short
time ago, met Friday evening.
