circuit court OF that district to try the

have been among the distinguishing
features OF the town for the past
dozen years. Grenada holds no second
place among Mississippi towns for
handsome residences, graded streets,
beautiful and e1duiing side walks and
many other good things that are
recognized essentials for ideal homes
and a happy contented people. The
mass meeting was a unit on the i'm
prOvements asked for at the public
school building by the trustees. Indeed
there was a very positive and decided
sentiment manifested for a city hall
into which the town would not feel
any embarrassment on inviting hush
ness men, and those seeking invest
mentS from the larger cities, when
they visit Grenada. Other towns no
larger than Grenada have desirable
and commodious quarters for thei-
city officials, and many feel that the
time has come for Grenana TO abandon
the very undesirable quarters which
were converted into a city hall a
quarter OF a century ago.
a gratifying feature Of the meeting
was the %earnestneSi with which
some Of the largest taxpayers urged
bonds for the purpose OF extending
the sewer lines of Grenada. This too,
IS a matter that appeals to the best
thought of every 20 ID citizen. There
may be, and very properly. some divi-
sion Of opinion as to where the first
sewer work should be done, 5ut no
one will attempt to c%Ontrovert the
desire to have every part Of the city
severed. The business portion and
a very lar,e per cent of the residences
on the principal streets are already
on sewer lines, but it cannot be denied
that it would he best il there was Lot
a surface closet in Grenada.
