COTTON STALKS
TO MAKE PAPER
Southern Product to be Utilized
in This Manner-Reports Of
Agricultural Department
Very Favorable.

Washington, d. C.-The reports Of
the Agricultural Department on the
possibility of manufacturing paper
from cotton stalks indicate that
new industry is knocking for admiS
sion to the Southern field-an indus
try, too, which characteriStically be-
longs to the South. Already it is be-
coming more and more difficult to OBJ
tain from the fast disappearing for
eSts Of the North sufficient wood for
the manufacture of paper pulp, SO that
the time cannot be far distant when
the cotton growing states will be dot
ted with plants equipped with mod
ern machinery for the manufacture Of
cotton stalk paper, to say nothing Of
the utilization Of the by-prOducts
That the new industry will prove one
Of enormous proportions cannot be
doubted, and it's advent will prove the
entering wedge in checking the pres
ent increasing cost OF paper. 1t is eS
timated that the ground producing
one bale of cotton will afford a ton of
stalks, so that upon this basis the
new industry can depend annually on
1000, 900 to 12,000,0 900 tons of raw
material. The South at present has
few paper mills, but this new process
will afford an opportunity for their
construction. 1t is estimated that
this new process will increase the val
ue of the Southern cotton crop Sl09,-
900, 900, and, best of all, will, through
the removal from the field of the
stalks in the early fall, sound the
doom of the boil weevil.

Mrs. Carrie Farnandis Christian.

On last Sabbath, July -, the gentle
spirit of Mrs. Carrie Far ndis Chris
and flew away to God and Heaven.
Mrs. Christian was the daughter OF
Henry and Mary Farnandis and was
born at the FarnandiS home in Lefiore
county, Miss.
Being left an orphan at an early
age she came to Grenada in the win
ter of 1879 to live with an older Sis
ter, Mrs. Ed. Payne, where she has
made her home most Of the time
since. She joined the Methodist
church when about Il years Of age
and has been strong christian and
faithful worker in the Lords vine
ward ever since. None but those who
knew her well, can realize what a
sweet christian character she was.
One OF the delights of her life was
-thoughtfulneSS for the welfare, both
spiritual and temporal. of others.
Had it not been for the constant fee
bleneSS Of her own fail body, she
would have gladly been as a visiting
suffering and sorrow. In spite of this
she always did the best she could"
There are none who were more loyal
to their God. to their church and to
their friends than was Mrs. Carrie
Christian. Though of an retiring ma
turc. vet such was her love for her
Lord and His works that her works in
a religious way will be felt on down
through the ages, long after all who
knew her shall have joined her on the
other shore. Her church and her,
friends will miss her surely, and in her
death a vacuum in her home has been
made which can never be filled on
this side of the line. For months and
years she has been patient sufferer,
never complaining at anything or
anyone, but always ready to make
excuses for any supposed derelectlon
i'm anv friend. When the summons
came to her to come up higher" 1t
found her ready with lamp trimmed
and filled with oil" 1t was only a
transition for her, tor IN d moment
her sweet spirit waited it's way from
it's frail tenement of clay" up to the
city of God.
No one but the dear sister left be-
hind can realize what a deSOlate heart
and home is left behind. To do so
one would have to be converSant with
their home life for % years past: to
know ti.eir many SorrowS and disap-
pointmentS; their many battles with
adverse circumstances and with their
hearts almost knitted together as one
through it all. To the lonely sister
the Lord is saying. Il will never leave
thee nor forsake thee," and doubtless
at this very moment the dear one
who has gone before is leaning far out
over the parapets of Heaven and
beckoning to ''Seeta" to ''come up
higher" and SO In the sweet bye
and bye they will meet on the beauti-
full shore" w.

COURAGEOUS APPEAL
FOR MORAL INTEGRITY
An Extract From A Speech Hon.
Earl Brewer Recently Made
1t Will Command Se-
rious Attention.

Below is part of a speech recently
made by Hon. Earl Brewer near Cor
inth:
How about your son? Let's look
at him:a a boy manly; mentally clean,
pure OF heart, morally courageous, and
full of promise. You have watched
and cared for him all these years.
This is your son | am talking about.
BY your counsel and example he is
now ready to tighten your burden
that your declining years have found
d little heavy. Here he comes out or
your home. Watch him. Innocent
in his own innOcenSe-ambitiOuS. How
genteel, how pleasant is the greeting
of the Bucket Shopper How plausa-
BILE the pictured fortune. How conf
dent your boy. He doesn't risk much
and his judgment is SD certain.
He is your boy and he cannot afford
TO spend that money. True, 1T isn't
a large sum, but he cannot afford it.
All. through a mistake of Judgment it
is lost. Yes, surely it must have been
a mistake OF judgment. That affable
bucket shopper seems the soul OF hon.
or. 1t was just mistake, and know
ing, he will avoid it next time. On
yes, there will be next time, for he
cannot face you, his hOnOred father,
in disgrace. He tries again again he
loses: again and again. The fever is on
him. These human vultureS, these
vampires that suck the blood OF our
youth and the life of our society, they
have him. When he is finally dragged
from their clutches he is no longer
your son, but it is his bones, picked
as clean and bleached as white as
though he had periShed on the far
away desert under the burning sun.
| tell you, my friends, bucket shops
are the most perniciOuS human leech-
es ever conceived in crime. They
blacken and destroy every dupe they
blow their foul breaths upon. 1t is
difficult to realize how far their dam
nable influence extends.
Brother-you gentleman over there
holding the big umbrella take those
young ladies standing beside you to
be your daughters. They are, are they
not?
The gentleman addreSsed-"Yes
sir"
Well, brother, these young women
are just coming into wOmanhOCd. L
have been talkiug about the sons OF
the country. 1t may be you have no
sons; possibly these young ladies are
your only children. And yet in a few
wears each of them will be dependent
on the love and courage and loyalty of
some young gentleman to whom you
will give her in marriage. God save
the day that your future Son-in-law
will be ruined morally, mentally,
physically aud financially by the buck
ct shop. 1t is your daughter am
talking about. 1t is your family and
your family honor Of which | think;
and that being part OF the whole.
the honor of our state and country.

he'd Crosn Issues Anpenl.

New York, Dec. 2S.--An appeal was given out to-day by the New York branch of the American National Red Cross society for relief for the famine stricken people of China.
 Contributions of money are desired with which to purchase flour and oth- CT appropriate foodstuffs to be shipped by the Red Cross to Crina for the re- lief of the famine sufferers in that country Official reports obtained by the state department at the request of the Red Cross shows that millions of people are on the verge of starvation. Assistance to be efficient must be prompt" says the appeal, It concludes: Last February the Red Cross issued an appeal for the Japanese famine and a considerable sum of money was for warded. This generosity of the Amer ican people helped to strengthen the already strong bonds of friendship be- tween the two peoples. It is hoped and expected that similar generosity on this occasion will have a similar re- suit in strengthening the kindly rela- tions and mutual understanding be- tween the United States and China"

 ITO the People of the United States:
 "There is an appalling famine in China. Throughout a district coveing over forty thousand square miles and supporting a population of 15,000,000, the crops have been destroyed by flcods and millions of people are on the verge of starvation; thousands of dwellings have been destroyed and their inmates are without homes. An urgent appeal has been made for the assistance of the United States.
 Our people have often, under simi- lar conditions of distress in other countries responded generously to such appeals. Amid our abounding prosperity and in this holiday season of good will to men assuredly we should do our part to aid the uneortu- nate and relieve the distressed among the people of China to whom we have been allied for so many years in friendship and kindness
 T shall ask congress upon it's next day of session for authority to use the four transport vessels to carry flour and other food to the famine stricken region
 T recommend that contributions for the purchase of such food and for other appropriate relief be sent to the American National Red Cross, which will take care of the expenditures. Such contributions may be made either through the local Red Cross treasury or through the department of state. or may be sent directly to Charles Hal lam Keep, Red Cross treasurer.

INCREASE FOR L I. YARDMEN
ROAD SIGNS AN AGREEMENT
 WITH MEMS LEADERS.

Under It the Present Wage Scale Will
 be Advanced From S1a to 41s Cents
 Per Hour-This Action Removes the
 Long Island us Factor in Demand
 for Five Cents.
 New York, Dec. 23-Ofiicials of the Long Island railroad to-day signed an agreement with representatives of their yardmen by which the latter will re- celve an increase from the present wage scale of from 31a to AZ cents per hour. This action removes the Long Island road as factor in the demand for a flye-cent-an increase which the roads involved agreed yesterday to submit to arbitration.
 To-day's arrangement was concluded by Grand Master P, H. Morrissey and Vice-Grand Master James Murdock, of the Brotherhood of Ratlroad TraInmen;. J. A. McCrea, the general superintend- ent of the Long Island railroad and committee of the yardmen of the road Following the conference Grand Master Morrissey left for Chicago and Vice Grand Master Murdock arranged to leave tonight for Toronto, Canada.
 Mir Murdock said; We met com mittee of the employees and MT, McCrea to-day, and agreed on a basis of from 315 cents an hour to 41a cents per hour increase, which puts the Long Island railroad on the same basis as the Stat en Island railroad. The yard brake men will receive an increase of 31s cents and the conductors of AZ cents This agreement is satisfactory to all. :"
 Mir. Murdock said that he expected that the arbitration committee would have no trouble in settling the differ ences between the other roads and their employees.
