In the third process solution of

Eminent Divine Assisting Or. Currie
In Meeting At First Presby-
terian Church.

DR.. c. w. Grafton, of Union Church,
Miss, is now assisting Rev. e. J. Cur
rie, pastor of the First Presbyterian
church, in a series of meetings.
DR.. Grafton is a man of wide repu-
tation both as a scholar and Chris
tian gentleman of spotless character.
Some of the most attractive places
both in secular and church circles
have been offered him, but he, posses
sed of the spirit Of heavenly love which
binds the true pastor to devoted
people, has wisely chosen to remain
with his beloyed people at Uniol
Church. His stay in Hattiesburg will
be but few days and the people
should not miss the opportunity to
hear him while here.
Notwithstanding the fact that DR..
Grafton is one of the ripest scholars
within the bounds of his denomina
ton, he yet presents his thoughts
in such a beautiful and simple way
| that even child can understand
him. The day services will oper
promptly at 10 o'clock, the night ser
vices at 7:30. Everybody is cordial,
invited to attend.

GIVEN PREFERENCE
Dixie Marble Works Design of Con-
federate Monument Accepted BY
Daughters of Confederacy.

From among number of designs
for Confederate memorial monu-
ment which they propose to erect in
this city, the local chapter of Daugh-
ters of the Confederacy at meeting
Tuesday afternoon accepted that of
the Dixie Marble Works, of Hatties-
burg.
The design submitted by the Dixie
People is said to be splendid and ap-
propriate one, and although there
were several out of town concerns
which would have been glad to get the
contract for erecting the monument,
the home concern was given the
preference, and they were instructed
to prepare plans and specifications
and submit them at the next meeting
of the chapter.
Manager McGrath is very much
gratified to know that the ladies were
so patriotic as to give home industries
preference over others, and it is safe
to say that in submitting his figures
on the cost of the monument he will
be influenced to large extent by
this fact.
The Dixie Marble Works is an in
dustry which would do credit to a city
much larger than Hattiesburg, and
under the management of Mr.. McGrath
has grown from a very small begin
ming until it has become one Of the
most important of the city's business
institutions.
1t is needless to say that after the
monument shall have been finished
and erected, it will be thing Of beau
ty and a joy forever, and citizens OF
| this city will have reason to feel
proud that it was made in Hatties
burg"
