Several from quarters we were
pleasantly surprised to note, have
expressed interest in the Panama
Letters, so while they may be griev-
ious to some we have the sati sfac-
ton tbs not so with all our readers.
Wednesday two Janet folks to
come to L9akesviI!e, were Mr.. and
Mrs. A. J. Bradley. We acknowledge
the passage from the palm of An
drew's hand into ours of one of thOs
"E pluribus Unum" engraved me-
talic circulars.
Some rather glaring grammatical
and typographical errors got past
US in the hurry of getting to press
last week in the Panama Editorial
Trip letter. It's mortlfying to see
these were not eliminated when too
laIe, but we feel certain our readers
appreciate the strain he whole force
is under since our return moving off
the congestion Of three weeks.
D. FL. C, McInnis has moved boots
and baggage from Leakesville vicin
age to Beaumont, Miss. He has pur
chased him a neat home and small
farm over there, He has been a life
long citizen of Greene County or
thus much of it, saving Wartime and |
short absences; a man of pronounced |
eccentricities but nevertheless of
some fairly good traits when you
knew him real well.
Sam Isaacson has been about |
Leakesville this week disposing of
his stock. as he has broke up bust
ness and housekeeping at Lucedale
since Simon's death. The poor man
is sadly broken up with grief over
the loss of his firstborn. Its quite
pathetic to mark his sorrow in talk
ing with him about it. May the God
of Israel cheer this one of the Chosen
People.
Lang Mills Jr has accepted re
sponsibility that will keep him quite
busy during the next several months.
He has charge of the contracting for
logs of the J. Bounds mill of Moss

Merrill up to the headwaters of the .
now placid but sometime turbulent |
stream which bears the Indian name |
of Chickasawhay. BE was in Leakes-

stumpage and lands tor his principal. |
The Big Sale on at the Leakesville
Mere. Store began drawing crowds /
from the opening moment Wednes
day, and has accustomed quite stir
to business in town this week. The
people appreciate a sale where prices
are really dropped to clear out un-
seasonable or accumulated goods, and |
it makes it better for them and the
store that has Sale once or twice a
year, as in this way the stocks were
kept clean for their purchase.
That sturdy old oak of Jonathan |
growth, even our good friend Geo.
W. Smith was in town Saturday last
and introduced US to his youngest or
baby daughter, whose name has some
how slipped US. Soon we judge some
of the young men of these parts will
discover what budding flower our
friend is raising and VIII be inclined
to dispute that term of endearment
he uses as above, and can they or
any of us be blamed for succumbing
to the charms of the fair maidenhood
of our land Cat some time or otherO.
