A HOLIDAY INNOVATION.

The Saturday Evening Post pub
fishes the following interesting and
valuable story;
"A travelling salesman had an only
son with whom he had been liberal in
the matter of spending money. and
rather thoughtless. The boy began de-
veloping extravagant habits, and had
no appreciation of the value of money
So the father made it rule that all
the spending money he got in future
must be earned. The boys mother
was made the employer, and regular
schedule of prices for definite chores
was drawn up-two cents a basket for
splitting kindling, five cents an hour
for hoeing garden, five cents a hun
dred for collecting potato bugs.
This reformed the boy in one way,
for it made him ambitious. He got
out of bed early in the morning to
earn money. There was always a big
pile of kindling on hand, and he kept
an eye open for odd jobs of all kinds.
But the reason he worked for
money was that he might buy more
or less useless things that he had
bought unedr the old arrangement. So
saving plan was added to the earn
ing plan.
THE boy was permitted to spend
one-quarter of all the money he made
in his own way, without supervision.
Another quarter went into a small
home bank. to be deposited in a saw
ings account at interest. The ermain-
ing fifty per cent of his earnings was
kept back by his father, half to be
invested in books and half in tools
and toys.
Before anything was bought out of
this final fund, however, father and
son had a conference and agreement
on articles to be purchased or books
selected. Thus the fund went chiefly
to the purchase of educational toys,
such as printing-press, scroll-saw,
a camera. No anticipation of pay
ments was permitted, nor any trans
fer of money from one fund to another
to hurry the consummation of a pur-
chase. In that way the fact that there
was a surplus on hand did not kill
the incentive to work for an object"
1t is the special business of our saw
ings department to take care of saw
ings and earnings of this nature and
while being cared for they will be
earning interest at the rate of per
cent per annum.
On making the first deposit of one
dollar we furnish you with a small
private bank to take home with you.
You could not select a Christmas
present for any member of the fam
lily that would be more useful and
more productive of happiness than
this. We shall be glad to explain
more fully if you will call.

The Boston Transcript thinks zone
may well doubt the correctness of Mr..
Reuterdahrs report of President
Roosevelt's views" If they prove I'M
popular they will certainly be "abso-
lutely incorrect" even if Reuterdahl
took the precaution to get a signed
acknowledgment in the original hand
writing, but the discovery will not af-
feet our opinion of the reporter in the
slightest-we can only wonder at his
rash entry into the realm where so
many others have fallen. Did he not
know that nothing the president might
say is to be accepted as true till Loeb
has endorsed it?

CITY. ELECTION
Will BE Held
NEXT TUESDAY

One week from today, December s,
the city election will be held at which
the nominees of the Democratic party
will be elected, there being no oppo-
sition.
At one time there was a little talk
of an independent ticket, but this soon
blew over and the man who would
vote an independent ticket now, even
If he had the chance, would be
curiosity. In fact, the talk was idle
from the start, as Hattiesburg is a
Democratic city and any man who
would have opposed the regular nomi-
nees would have been ashamed of it
after the election.
In order to hold the election next
Tuesday, 1t will be necessary for the
city council at its meeting tonight to
appoint three election commissioners
who will in turn appoint the neces-
sary election officers.

While c. w. Miller, of the Aber-

aboard his vessel. The "Swift,' -
which is owned by Mr.. Miller, is a
forty-fOot launch, and is considered
one of the finest pleasure boats on
the HarbOr, and as we'll as the
speediest, and was running at full
speed when she ran on the pile. The
occupants had barely time to climb
out of the windows on the upper side
of the craft, as she lay on her side,
before the cabin was filled with
water The Swift was towed to the
beach and pumped out and brought
to Aberdeen. The damage will
