A MEMORY. I stole kiss from Mary, But that w9s long go In Q quaint, eld-fashioned garden Where the roses used to blow, And the birds were all a-twitter- Twas in the month of June; No cloud o'ercast the heavens And the world 1t was in tune
 When I stole kiss from Mary. I stole a kiss from Mary Alas, the futile years That intervene, the sorrow, The heartache and the tears. And often when Pm weary And the burdens hard to bear, I wish that I were back again In that old garden there,
 Where I stole kiss from Mary.

Campaign Against Drug Victims.

Campaign Against Drug Victims.
 The war against the dope fiends" is already having it's good results, according to Policemen Horan and Buckalew, whose beat includes the former haunt of most of the white victims Since the many ar rests which resulted in a large number of the unfortunates being sent to the Banner farm, the 'fiends' at liberty have been exceedingly wary" said one of the officers.
 Their former haunt was in the segre- gated district, but the crusade has caused them to seek other quarters. The officers are arresting them just as fast as they can catch them, but they are exceedingly hard to catch.
 Just how terrible grip this habit gets on a person is shown by the fact that several well-known local characters, who were cured of the habit in a way, and who refrained from using it for year or two have drifted back to their old ways, and are again victims to cocaine.
 With continuation of the present cru sade, and 1t is to be kept up, the town will soon be rid of many bad characters, and will also succeed in redeeming many of the victims, who can undoubtedly be cured if proper methods are used in treating them and precautions taken to see that they do not have a chance to get any of the drug"

 Failure and regret; Tears will be fer shedding, Moments of despair, When the future darkens Once you thought so fair. All along the line
 Bliss will turn to rue, Clouds and stormy weather Overcast the blue; Laughter yield to signing. Browns succeed to smiles. When no prospect brightens And no hope beguiles. All along the line
 Pain will follow fast. Trampling on life's roses, Ruthless to the last; But you'll make misfortune Seem the better part. If you'll keep the sunshine Stored up in your heart!

oNE-voTE COUPON NOW BEING
PUBLISHED WILL CEASE
TO APPEAR MONDAY.
Watch for the Twenty-Five Vote Cou-
pom Which viii Appear Some Day
This Week--see That You Get Your
Share Of Them.

But four more days of the second
voting period remain, which should
be made the most of, for the 1000
extra votes you can secure with each
yearly subscription may be the means
of you winning the $500 in gold. 1t
should not be hard matter for any
one of the contestants to go out any
day and pick up as many as ten year
ly subscriptions, and just think what it
will mean to the ones getting the 20
900 honor ballots! Perhaps the 25,-
900 honor ballots may mean $500 in
gold to you.
Each day sees the interest in The
News great $4,000 popular voting con-
test increasing. Candidates both in
and outside of Hattiesburg are putting
forth every effort to win one of The
News valuable prizes. The appear
ance of.your name in the list of con-
testants means that you have friends
mo desire to see you to win one of the
fine prizes. Your failure to take ad-
vantage of this splendid opportunity
would be disappointment to them.
You can win one of the prizes if you
will only exercise a little effort.
Pledge your territory and by utiliz-
ing your leisure time you can easily
be a winner.
Above all things do not get discour-
aged because some one else has few
more votes than you. A few thous-
and votes do not count so much this
early in the race, and those at the
very bottom have an equal show to
rm with those at the top of the list.
No matter how many votes anyone
else has, do not lose courage, simply
make up your mind that you are in
the race to win and then get out and
get votes in manner that will make
the leaders as well as the others, sit
: up and take notice. Subscriptions are
not hard to get and in case you do not
understand the manner in which to
get them just ask the contest man
and he will gladly show you how it is
done. If you have any friends who
desire to assist you, send them to the
contest manager and he will give them
a receipt book and show them how tc
go about getting votes. Call on the
contest editor at any time and he will
furnish you with information and as
sist you in any way possible.
