for eighteen years past edited a
monthly journal of national reputa-
ton, Word and Works. We have

the October number the monthly
will be a beautiful magazine pro-
fusely illustrated with half-tone en-
cravings. One Of the early fall num-
bers of this magazine will contain
the first six months of 1906 The
January, 1906, number will contain
the weather forecasts for the second
six months of 1906. These two num-
bers of the magazine will take the
place of the Hicks Almanac, which
will be discontinued. The matter
which has heretofore been published
in the Hicks Almanac each year
Will now be found in the magazine
and much more. The price of the

Wilbourn, Esq. and Hon. Sam o.
Bell, to organize company to build
an electric railway from Scooba to
DeKalb, should have the outspoken
endorsement of everybody and the
liberal financial support of all able
to render same.
There are ALWAYS arguments for
and against a venture Of this kind,
but where the venture is once made
almost Invariably those who opposed
it ia the beginning have to acknowl-
edge later the utility and SUCCESS,
from a financial standpoint, OF the
innovation.
We believe the operation of an
electric railway between this point
and the county-seat would work to
Scooba's upbuilding and benefit; we
believe that a large amount of the
trade from west of DeKalb which,
under existing circumstances, Will
seek some point on the new branch
of the Illinois Central Railway, will
naturally gravitatc to Scooha if good
transportation facilities We're fur
nished from DeKalb eastward; and
we believe a good interest could be
pealized from the investment
Scooba has entered upon an era of
Improvement. and it is to be hoped
that nothing which might rebound
to the towns future prosperity and
advancement will be permitted to
fall through for lack of proper and
liberal encouragement,
Whpop it up for an electric rall-
way from Scooba to DeKalb.
