BRANDON TO have
ANOTHER Big DAY
Citizens of Other Parts Invited to In
spect a Bit of Good Road Which
Has Just Been Completed.
Special TO the Neus.

Special to the News
JACKSON, Miss, October 6-Citi-
zens of Brandon who were in Jackson
yesterday stated that they are going
to have another big day over there
before long, the exact date depending
somewhat on the weather. In fact
Brandon wants a rain or two before
she opens her piece of new road
about one mile, from the town to the
depot, or vice versa.
Brandon sent to Washington,
through Senator McLaurin, and secur-
ed the services of a road building ex-
pert to come down and show them
how to put up road out of the ma
terials on hand, clay and sand, and
the general opinion is that they have
one that will stand the test of years.
The long and tortuous hill leading
up from the depot has teen cut down
several feet, it has been widened and
Strengthened, the high bumps cut off
and the low places filled, so that there
is a gradual rise to the town proper.
In the event that this road proves
to be what its builder claims for il
other sections of road in this part OF
the country will be similarly treated
Portions of this road are through
sandbeds, the other over or through
clay banks. These natural elements
have been mixed in the proper pro-
portions and plowed and narrowed
into each other in such a way that
there is no escape. The clay holds the
sand and the sand the clay-making
a road that when properly shaped up
is impervious to rain or shine

FINANCIAL SUCCESS

Success in the financial or business
world seldom comes by accident. 1t
is the result of hard work, coupled
with right habits.
1t is not hard to enumerate the quail
tiles that the employer desires in his
employees. HE is looking after HIS
interests.
Are YOU looking after yours? Do
you recognize and practice these de-
sirable habits, looking forward to the
time when you can step out of your
position to higher one?
Your employer wants you to have
such habits as will make you most eff
ficient for HIM.
Do you demand such habits of your.
self as will make you most efficient
for YOU?
The habit that will make you a bet
ter workman and put you in position
to serve yourself best is the habit OF
SAVING.
The Citizens Bank invites you to
make a beginning, no matter how
small, knowing that the dollar will
grow and help you to grow.

 Story.
 Harold Bell Wright, author of "The Shepherd of the Hills" who has a ranch near Meloland, came to Fl Gen. tro last Tuesday to forward to his publishers in Chicago the manuscript of novel which he has just finished and which will be published in the fall probably under the title of "The Calling of Dan Matthew's" It is a story of young minister and what he found and failed to find in the church, and it is likely to stir up some fervid discussion. The story, aside from the questions suggested, Is full of interest, and the literary quality of the work shows marked advance. ment of the author in craftsmanship. Ill many respects it is even strong CT work than "The Shepherd" prov ing that MT. Wright is not a "one- story" man and did not write him. self out when he produced one of the best sellers of the past year.

New plats of the townships in the Imperial Valley that have been resur. veyed will be filed in the Los Angeles land office next Tuesday, and O. R. w. Robinson, receiver, will be ready to re. ceive applications for entry at that time.
 No rush of applicants is anticipated, as the settlers on the land have ninety days preference right.
 The probabilities are that any land absolutely vacant is in an exceedingly remote section of the resurveyed dis trict," said Mir. Robinson to an Ex. press Reporter.
 "I doubt very much is there is an acre of land in the valley under the present water system where prior claims have not been established by settlers on the grounds"
 In all there were twenty-six town. ships to be resurveyed, and of this number about one-third have been completed.
 The townships that will be opened for entry Tuesday are: Townships 13 south, range 13 east; 13 south, Is east; 13 south, 16 east, and the east half of township 13 south, 12 east; townships A south, 15 east; 14 south, 16 east; 15 south 15 east; 16 south, 16 east, all San Bernardino base and meridian.
