SPECIAL WORK TO
 IMPROVE SCHOOLS

Jackson, Miss, May A.-(Special )-Miss Susie " Powell principal of the Norfield school, and president of the School Im- provement association for the past two or three years or since it's creation, spent the day in Jackson conferring with State Superintendent Powers, and the result Is that she has agreed to enter permanently upon the school improvement work.
 Miss Powers has done great deal to create interest in this work over the state, and has been the cause of valuable and pleasing changes in the scenery and conditions around and about many of the bare and unsightly School grounds and houses of the state. She has aroused great deal of enthusiasm among the teachers, and they in turn have con- verted the children and patrons of the rural schools to her way of thinking which is that the school site must be made attractive to the child if its in- terest and enthusiasm in the study of its books is to be maintained
 The employment of Miss Powell in this work was made possible through the generosity and the interest of MT. J. T. Thomas. president of the Grenada bank. Happening to meet the state superintend- ent on the street few months ago, MT. Thomas inquired why more atten- tion was not given to school improve ment and was told that there was no fund available-that 1t would take s25Oo per year to carry it On as it should be, and he had nothing that could be used that way. MT. Thomas wrote and hand ed Superintendent Powers his check for $500, and told him to stir up the bal ance some how or other. The state su- perntendent called on the several county superintendents, and they got busy, in consequence of which the sum of $1S00 has been collected and Miss Powell has agreed to get to work and devote the coming year to school improvement. She will have a desk in the office of the state superintendent, and go out over the state from this city, waging cease- less campaign against bare walls, turn- ble-down houses bleak yards and dismal- looking school scenery in general She will see that flowers and shrubbery arc planted where they will have the most effect. and do her best to make school life more attractive to the rural children of Mississippi.

PONTOTOC CASE
 AGAIN SETTLED

Jackson, Miss, May A.-(Special.)-As- sistant Attorney General Butler and for mer Attorney General Flowers have re- turned from Tupelo, where they spent Friday prosecuting and defending the Mobile, Jackson and Kansas City rail- road on the contempt proceedings insti- tuted some time ago by Attorney General Stirling, and report a kind of "dog-fall."
 The railroad company was charged with contempt in that it had failed and re- fused to obey an order of the court to run its main line through the town of Pontotoc, and that instead it had con tinued to use a spur track from the main fine to the depot in the toy1h. Had the railroad company been declared guilty of contempt it would have been subject to a heavy fine, and 1t is probable that the fine was not imposed by Chancellor Rob- bins for the reason that the railroad company declared it is not financially able just now to build the line through the town as per the order of the pre- vious court. It was also claimed in ex- tenuation of the failure of the railroad to build the line as ordered that former Attorney General Fletcher had promised them they might have a reasonable time in which to do the work.
 However the court served notice on the railroad company that the spur track must be gotten rid of and that the origi- nal order of the former court must be obeyed literally and without any more delay

Miss India Harris.

The news of the sad death of Miss India Harris, the trained nurse who ac- cidentally shot herself Saturday, was re- ceived with much regret by many of the people of Ensley, especially those to whom she ministered while acting in her pro- fessional capacity. Miss Harris was at one time connected with the Cunningham hospital and during that time waited on quite number of patients.

Her untimely end is deeply re- gretted and though passed to the great beyond she will be remembered with grateful hearts by those to whom she attended with such loving care.
