descriptions are of such lyrical en-
thusiasm that one suspects there
never were human children quite so
quiet, so gentle, so well behaved, and
so deliberately courteous as he would
have us believe these insular prodi-
gies are. But most of what he saw
has been observed by others, and his
poetry agrees with their prose well
enough to produce the conviction that
parental responsibilities are held
sacred in Japan"
Our little citizens are the most i'm
portant. The older ones do the work
of the world, but each generation in
the forward march of time must needs
be better than the preceding gener-
alton. If it were not so, where would
progress come in? And how can the
children stand a fair chance to sur
pass the parents unless the parents
sacrifice themselves to the uttermost

school them, to fit them for useful,
successful and noble lives.

tor Hugo, sis the lisping of a human

reverence for childhood we can learn
of the Japanese. It is he training of
the children that has made the little
brown people what they are today.
We Americans have greater gifts. We
come of a stronger race, physically,

The Care of Children.

Recently the children of Japan took
a prominent part in the welcome of
the American fleet. Along the railway
line between Yokohama and Toxic
they gathered by hundreds of thou
sands, singing and waving flags. The
purpose was twofold, to impress us
with the sincerity of Japanese friend
ship-for who can resist little chill
dren?-and to instill into the minds
of the children themselves sentiments
of good will toward this nation.
Every writer of authority in regard
to Japan and the Japanese" says the
New York Times, has had much to
say about the children of that coun-
try and about the particularly tender
regard manifested for them by their
elders. Many of Lafcadio Hearn's
most beautiful word pictures are de-
voted to this subject, and he made
clearer than anybody else has done,
perhaps, how much the life of the
islanders centers about the little ones,
how important is the place they &C.
cupy in the social structure, and how

Mexican mining has made sixteen
Hattiesburgans millionaires, according
to the Hattiesburg News. The News
seems not to know whether to take
the whole matter seriously or large
part of it as a joke We really hope
that it is all true. This is a reminder
of a fact that off and on during the
half century we have lived in this
thriving city we have been personally
acquainted with Meridian millionaires
who had "struck it rich" digging for
silver in Mexico. We are sure they
did not get all that is generally sup
posed to be down there; and as the
Hattiesburgans are, of course, digging
in hole entirely different from the
holes that Meridian has worked, the
probabilities are they will get a part
of that which Meridian didn't get

A NEW BOOK By A FAMOUS AUTHOR

Mrs. Mary ]. Lincoln, author of the
famous Boston Cook Book" has just
written another book of recipes, the
pure Food Cook Book" 1t is interest
ing to note that in a number of recipes
Mrs. Lincoln has recommended the use
of vegetable oil cooking fat, called
COTTOLENE. Lard, being made from
hog fat is often impure and always indi-
gestible. 1t is claimed for COTTOLENE,
however, that it can be used in every
way that lard is, that it makes light, rich,
delicious pastry which can be digested
with ease by the most delicate stomach,
and that it is also more economical than
lard one-third less being required.

Sumrall. Miss. November Sit is
perfectly wonderful to me-" remarked
a gentleman-manager of one of Mis-
sissippi's large and important rail-
roads, as he witnessed the tireless
energy Of the machinery in operation
at the great Newman plants at Sum-
rail-. He referred, principally to the
fact that this machinery is in con-
slant motion % hours each day and
&c days per month, and that the man.
agement and control of the operation
is so thorough that, unlike the hui
man machine, this great industrial
plant moves ceaselessly without jar
or friction and never tires.
Continuing, he said: my exper-
fence has been chiefly along the lines
of railroad organization and operation
and relying upon the results of the
practical application of ideas devel-
oped by such experience, I am great
ly surprised by the performance of
mill of this character and it's al
most automatic operation"
Such interest, expressed by such
an eminent authority on matters re-
lating to mechanical, achievement
would seem to justify brief descrip-
ton of the great industrial plant and
it's domicile.
Sumrall-
Nestled among the green Mississippi
hills. which. at this season shed their
gorgeous plumage of emerald and
crimson, is the town of Sumrall
1t is essentially an industrial place
and owes it's growth and development
to the money, muscle and brains of
it's founders, who with far sighted bus
mess judgment "builded better than
| they knew" and today Sumrall stands,
industrially, in a class parallelled by
few business or manufacturing cen
tiers whose population approximatrs
hers.
The layman, the financier or econ
omist would express admiration and
surprise to learn that Sumrall is the
circulating center of some 100000
annually derived from wages of lum.
bermen alone, and combining the in.
dependent business enterprises which
include cotton its products. distilla.
ton of turpentine, and last, but most
important, the products of the farm
the business of Sumrall If represented
solely by money circulation, might be
expressed in round figures at hall
million dollars annually.
Now, word about the great lum.
Der mandatory located here.
1t has been established for many
years. 1t is surrounded by an almost
inexhaustable pine forest.
1t employs some 500 men in it's
day and night operations.
| There are two mills whose produc.
ton will approximate 500,000,000 feet
of pine lumber annually Think what
this means to Sumrall and to the
employed whose best efforts are en-,
listed in it's production
1t means that Sumrall is an active
and important unit in the commerce
of the great commonwealth of Mis-
sissippqi.
There are unlimited opportunities
here for the wage Garner who earnest
ly desires betterment of his condition
in life. Earnest, Industrious men are
coming here daily and others are
welcomed.
With the excellent school facilities
provided by the state; with til
