"A writer III The New idea

concludes that the English custom
of chaperoning girls has its raison
detre not SO much Id the necessi-
ty Of protecting the girls as IN the
desire to meet the requirements
Of the aristocratic classes by con-
forming to conventions. The
English girl, il appears, does not
go unchaperoned, because her
doing SO would be taken as ain in
dication that she was not accus-
toned to good society and didn't
know the proper thing z It is
also stated that although this GUS
tom IS rigidly observed, English

resent, on The whole, the cuttail-
ing of their liberty, and are
in praising the health

ditions that obtain in the States. =

MI. DulaneY's SUGGESTION.

Hon. L. G. Dulaney, member Of
the Legislature from Issaquena
county, and one Of the wealhtiest
cotton planters in the Delta, offers
one Of the most practical sugges-
tions that has yet been ventured
in this State to secure a reduction
of cotton acreage during the COM
ing year, and thus insure better
prices.
Mr.. Dulaney says that the or
ganization should be made SO per-
feet that there will be no room for
doubt or argument on the part of
the bears. To this end, says
Mr.. Dulaney, why not let the
Boards of Supervisors in all the
counties throughout the State,
composing the cotton raising dis
trict, meet and name day for the
cotton growers in each supervi-
sor's district to hold meetings
and discuss and agree upon what
reduction of cotton acreage they
will make? / believe that under
such an arrangement the farmers
would feel personally bound to
each other, and would carry out
in good faith any agreement that
might be reached. | believe this
plan practical, and if put in ope-
ationr would insure good price
for the cotton to be made this
year, and would help the price of
cotton now on hand.7 .
