Vexed in spirit with the problems
OF making both ends Of the citys H.

finances to the near beer" problem
last evening and informally declared
there was no reason why the county

No definite action was taken, but
the councilmen individually declared
themselves in favor of requiring IL
censes from the near beer joints in
town for no other reason than to be
in a position to regulate them. It
was declared that at least one place
was catering to a most undesirable

Because it was too poor the city OF
Pendleton last evening was forced to
refuse the offer of Contractor Betz
to construct 800 feet more OF levee
and build two cribs, 6x10x20 feet in
dimensions, at the lower end OF the
present levee work for which task the
contractor asked the sum OF $500.
The proposition was submitted by
Engineer II. l.. Frazier for the con-
tractor, and the bid made was less
for the 800 feet OF levee and the
two cribs, for which the city was to
furnish the timbers, than has been
paid under the present contract for
the work now being completed for
200 feet of levee alone Just why
the big reduction in cost could be
made for the proposed work was not
explained.
Work Nearly Finished.
According to Chairman Ell of the
levee committee, last evening, the
work on the lower end of the levee
is completed, while at the upper end
the contractor has but comparatively
little remaining yet unfinished and
the entire wall will be ready for the
acceptance of the city on Wednesday
next, If not little before. As it now
stands the work is completed beyond
all danger from high waters.
At the upper end of the levee some
Is trees are standing between its
walls and the council last evening or
dered that these trees be cut down
to prevent damage in flood time by
catching driftwood.
A petition asking for a grade and
improvement of Lewis street be-
tween Jefferson Davis and Transit
streets was read and referred to the
street committee.

The Saturday paper is one of the
best issues of the week for the local
advertisers.
1t goes into the home when the
weeks work is done, when the mind
is free from the cares and worries Of
business and of household duties, and
it is often laid aside for reading on
Sunday.
Naturally the Saturday paper is
more. thoroughly read and it's contents
more seriously considered. Those who
read it have more time and an easier
mind for the perusal' of the Saturday
afternoon paper than for any other
issue of the week.
Therefore the business man has an
announcement to make for the next
weeks trade, and especially for the
Monday trade will find the Saturday

GIVES AN ACCOUNT
OF SCHOOL WORK
Finds 1t Cheaper and Better to EN-
pIoy Negro Women to Teach Negro
schools-The Cost Per Pupil Is 1-2
Cents.

The Forrest county board of super
visors heard splendid talk on educa-
tionaltional affairs yesterday from the
county superintendent of education,
Rev. E. j. Currie.
The board very properly wanted TO
be informed fully as to the educa-
tional work of the county and it was a
pleasure to the faithful superintend-
ent to give them the information de-
sired.
Mr.. Currie told the board that the
work along educational lines was pro-
crossing nicely and that he believed
that Forrest County was leading all
other counties in the state, and that
the time was not far distant when the
county would be pointed to as model.
He told what work had been done in
systematizing the county schools ana
he felt proud of the work that was be-
ing done.
L In speaking of the negro schools,
Mr.. Currie said that he had made 1t
a rule to employ negro women where
possible. One reason for this was
kthat the negro women would work for
almost half of the amount charged by
men and he believed they were bet
ter teachers than the men and were
less liable to put bad notions into the
heads of children than were the men.
He did not think they would try to
teach politics to the negro children
like the men would do and that there
was not so much danger of future
trouble where the negro youth were
taught by negro women.
Mr.. Currie stated that the actual
cost to the county for each scholar
was about 1-2 cents which he thought
was getting it down pretty low. In ref
erence to the law that states that the
county superintendent must visit each
, school once a year and spend two
hours, Mr. Currie stated frankly that
he had never observed this provision
and never intended to. He had visited
all the schools, some of them several
times during the session, but the law
= never contemplated that he should
D stay there for two hours unless it was
r necessary. He should stay as long as
v necessary and no longer; that was al
that the law contemplated. 1t did no
require him to go to negro schools
and stay there two hours, when it wa'
not necessary.
> Mr.. Currie made a splendid tall
y and it is pity that the patrons o
l. all the schools of the country coult
not have heard it, The board wa
more than pleased with the Showing
r made and greatly appreciated the in
e formation given, which was out of tn
- regular routine of reports.

Chairman Gary's Optimism.

1t ought to be cheering to the bust
ness world to read such optimistic talk
as that made by Chairman Gary, of the
United States Steel Corporation.
He finds that the iron and steel bust
ness for the past ten weeks has been
better than at any time since the final
cial furry of last October. He finds
orders increasing and a general feeling
of buoyancy setting in. The railroads
are beginning to see better times
ahead. Money is more plentiful than it
has been for months and is cheaper
and easier.
One by one the signs Of returning
prosperity loom up. The statements of
the head of the Steel Corporation are
of incalculable weight, so closely re-
lated to prosperity is his gigantic con-
Germ. WIN nedrlS ldklnS On renewed
courage, minds filling with confidence,
and money getting within reach of the

is on the back track. And soon there
will be the greatest crops in the his
tory of the country to add their magic
influence to conditions.
