BY SCORE OF p TO 10

BY score Of % to 10, the Spauldine
high school basket ball team defeated
the Burlington high school team in an
exciting and well played game at the
Church street hall Saturday evening. Il
was a well.earned victory, for Spauld'
ing, as they were playing a strong team
of heavier players and at no time was
the victory certain until the final whis-
tie blew. The excellent basket throwing
of Arthur Averill and Maiden in the
last two periods won the game. The
Spaulding team showed weakness in
team work throughout the game and will
have 10 make Improvement in this line
If they expect TO keep up victories.

ton was in the lead, II to s, but in the
second period Spaulding showed up
stronger, and this period ended with the
score tied, Is to IS. Maiden shot two
baskets from the floor and A. AyerilI
shot three fouls, while Burlington made
only one basket from the floor and shot
two fouls. In the first minute Of play
in the last period, Maiden shot a basket
from the floor and A. Averill soon added
another point on a basket from foul.
Grigg then made sensational shot
through the loop fom brack of the CEN
ter Of the floor, and A. Averill shot an
other foul With three minutes more

A Good Reason For Total
Abstinence.

When about four years ago,
during the visit of DR.. Lorenz,
the great Austrian surgeon, to
this country, he was invited to
deliver a short address at a ban-
quet held in New York, he said
Il cannot say that / am a tenn
perance agitator, but ! am a SUP
geon. My success depends upon
my brains being clear, my mus
cles firm and my nerves steady,
No one can take alcoholic liquors
without bunting these physical
powers, which | must keep al
ways on edge. AS a surgeon, |
must not drink. That is the
argument for total abstinence,
not from the standpoint Of moral.
ity, but from a business point Of
view. But why should not every
mans brain be clear, and his
muscles firm and his nerves
, steady? If liquor disqualiles a
surgeon for his highest and best
work. Goes it not disqualify men
who are not surgeons? What
! right has a man to muddle his
brain, weaken shis muscles, and
unsteady his nerves? The en-
gineer, telegraph operator, the
passenger conductor, the mot9r
man, have need Of a steady
nerve and d clear brain no less
than surgeon. No matter what
a mans rlace in life,may be, he
ought to be the best z, All IN that
place; anything that impairs his
manhood is sin. Brethren Evan

LEE COUNTY HAS
A GOOD CHANCE.
Prospects for Good Crop Are
Not Bad as they Were
Photographed.

In a conversation with Mr.. J
P. Stovall Tuesday in the discus
sion Of the conditions which hav,
prevailed in this county for th'
past six months. Mr.. Stovall, in
reviewing the reverSes to which
we have been subjected, stated
that the people of the county
Were a heroic people. +" That
three weeks ago the conditions
were so poor that it seemed i'm
possible to make crop and that
by heroic work, patience ano
pluck we had come out from un-
der the adverse conditions with
better chances of success than it
seemed possible to bring about. +"
The observations of Mr.. Stovall
are full of truth and we can hear
tily endorse what he had to say.
No people can work out of what
appears to be a failure as rapid
ly as the people of Lee County.
We have seen them confronted
with what appeared to be insur-
mountable obstacles before and
by that determination that nev-
er acknowledges defeat went to
work and won out. This energy
and good judgment has again
saved our people from complete
failure and which would have
meant disaster to many of them.
While the result will not be what
we first calculated it would be,
we will not make a complete.
failure unless the elements again
resume the work Of destruction
and cut US off in the harvesting
of what now promises to be a
fairly good crop. In such case
we would have the consciousness
of ha ring done the best we could
under the circumstances.

Too Much Booze.

Collier Tedford and John Ted
ford OF Pontotoc county drove
into Tupelo Saturday evening
in a one horse buggy with sever,
al gallons of bust-skull liquor put
up in convenient packages. Late
in the afternoon the boys put
the liquor on the market and
found several purchasers. Matt
Crawford soon got on to the
game and landed the boys in
behind the bars. On Monday
they were arraigned before
Mayor Robins on a charge of re-
failing and each entered a plea
of guilty, The Mayor told the
boys that he would make the fine
400. flfty dollars of which he
would suspend during good be-
havior, after they had worked
out a little 80. day sentence
on the street. The proposition
was the first Of the kind the boys
had ever run up against but they
went at it Tuesday morning.
The sale of whiskey here is
very rare these days and to one
who knows the danger of engag-
ing in such a practice it is strange
that anyone will come here to
sell it. The vendor will get
caught in nine out of ten cases
and the mayor will see to it that
a sentence will follow a convict
ion that will deter a repitition.

OUR FORESTS
AND OUR BIRDS,
Being Destroyed Daily by
the Hand Of Man. No
Preventive.

/ Man believes he is monarch OF
/ the earth. He is but the slave Of
the lower animals. He is at
their mercy always He plants
in the spring, plows all summer,
and gathers in the autumn, the
unwilling but helpless servant of
pests that fatten on the produce
of his toll, and do other damage
amounting to many millions of
dollars. This is the inevitable
reward of his annual labor, even
when spared by other pests.
But his crops are often taken
before harvest. The palmer
worm comes and eats his fill. and
that which the palmer worm
leaves, the locust eats; and that
which the locust leaves the can
ker worm eats, and that which
the canker worm leaves the cat
terpillar eats; while man supe-
rior man superior in mental en-
dowment and physical strength
stand and looks upon his ruin
ed crops and feels like thirty
cents.
The rats, the mice, the army
worm, the caterpillars, the
grasshoppers, which man would
destroy, he cannot. The birds
of the air, which he could save,
he destroys, and adds thereby
new weights to the shackles that
binds him subject to the whims
of rats and worms and bugs.
Birds toll not neither do they
spin. If they do either, it is for
mans benefit. They do no in-
jury, to speak Of, to crops. For
every grain of wheat or corn
they take they eat many ,lestruc-
tive insects. While man de-
stroys the forests and the breed
ing places Of. birds birds plant:
trees for man along the fence
rows of old ,worn.out fields.
Though mans hand is ever
against them, ever seeking their
destruction, birds d. more for
man than man does for him self
in keeping the land from bseom-
ing dry and barren as a desert.
|So, while man is but the abject
tool and constant prey Of potato.

superiors in restoring to. the

Mis-. w. E. S. Tison

After an illness of three weeks from
typhoid fever. Miss Willie E. S. Tison
died at her home in Baldwin Saturday
NIGHT at ten o'clock, surrounded by
her sister and brother and number of
intimate friends and other relatives.
The disease that resulted in her
death had doubtless run ten days be-
fore it was known that shs was a VIC
tim of it. Her sister, Miss Mamie
Tison. was in Battle Creek, and Miss
Willie was sick more than week be-
fore she would consent for physician
to be called. DR.. Mcmillan was
called in and her maladv pronounced
typhoid fever. She continued to grow
worse. and for ten days her life hung
by thread.
Miss Willie Tison was the eldest
daughter Of the late Col. W. H. H.
and Mrs. Sarah Tison. In her early
youth she exhibited the high qualities
of mind and heart that characterized
her whole life. She had superior ad-
vantages of an education, graduating
from Wards Seminary, Nashville, one
of the foremost schools of the south.
The characteristics which most distin-
guished her life followed closely those
Of her distinguished father. Her ideals
were high, and possessed of an ambi-
ton to excel she took leading part in
everything she undertook. She was
an ardent admirer sof the Lost Cause
and was active in all matters that kept
alive the memories of the glories of her
dead heroes. She was a member of
the Daughters of the Confederacy, and
through her efforts the local chapter
was organized.
She very early in life associated her
self with the Cumberland Presbyterian
church and was leader in every
movement for the uplifting and better
ment of humanity. She was friend
whose loyalty never wavered and
those nearest her found in her the ten
derest emotions and truest sentiments
of friendship. Having once espoused
a cause she threw her whole heart into
if and no one doubted her position.
In her passing away Baldwin loses
a leader in good works and the people
a friend upon whom they could always
rely, the brother and sister their great
est solace- and comfort.
The funeral services were conducted
from the residence Sunday afternoon,
where many friends gathered to pay
their tribute of respect. Rev. Julius
Berry delivered very fitting tribute to
the memory Of the deceased, while W.
NJ. Cox, Esp spoke words Of comfort
to the hereavcd The body was laid to
rest in the cemetery at Baldwin in the
family square, the grave being covered
with floral offerings from many friends.

For many years DR.. Hoyle was
connected with the Methodist
church and was a leading men,
Der, having served a long time
as steward in that church. A
few years ago he withdrew and
became q member Of the Chris
tian church, becoming a jealous
worker and one of the founders
of the church here.
In his intercourse with other
people DR.. Hoyle was kind and
considerate, and whenever an
opportunity was afforded to con-
fer a favor it was done in such a
manner as to leave the imprea-
sion that it was not done save
for the pleasure It gave him. As
a physician Ae was deeply learn
ed and his counsel was sought by
the leading members of the pro
fesstan when consultation was
necessary, To the afflicted and
poor he ministered without the
hope or desire for remuneration,
and many still live to honor his
name for the many deeds Of
kindness shoWR thea in times Of
distress. AS a citizen he stood
high and held the confidence and
respect Of his neighbors. AS
husband and father he was de.
voted ana true, and the ties be-
tween him and the members of
his family were tender and affec-
tionate.
DR.. Hoyle loved the Gonfeder-
ate cause and was an active
member Of the local camp here.
He wore a cross of honor con-
ferred by the Daughters of the
Confederacy and attended all
the meetings and found special
pleasure in talking about and
talking over the incidents of the
war. In his passing away how
fitting il was that he should fall
into a apeaniess sleep on this
side to awake with his comrades
beneath the shade of the trees
on the other side of the river.
At the funeral services many
friends gathered to pay their
last tribute of respect. The SER
vices were conducted by Rev.
NJ. H. Armour, Of the Christian,
and Rev. W, w. Woodland Of the
Methndist church. The follow
ing friends acted as pail bearers:

District Meeting Knights of
Pyihias. 8.

The meeting advertised by
District Deputy C. G. Walton of
the Knights of Pythias in his
district for Wednesday, the 21st,
was we'll attended, although the
members came in on late trains.
The morning program was called
off on account of the failure of
the Knights to get in in time for
the 10 o'clock meeting.
At the castle hall in the after
noon there was a good delegation
present and the second degree
was conferred with Grand Keep
er of Records and Seals Quinn in
the chair.
At the night session the at
tendance was much better than
in the afternoon, the trains
bringing in good delegations
from Nettleton, Okolona, New
Albany, GuntoWn and other
points. The second degree was
again conferred by Bro. Quinn
with Grand Chancellor Sam
Montgomery as prelate, and Past
Grand Chancellor Sessions acting
as vice-chancellor. The work
was fine and the candidates Civ
en- a true insight into Pythianism
and many valuable lessons incul-
Gated and a deep and lasting i'm
preston of the true and noble
principles taught by the order
left with them.
Brother Montgomery asked the
cooperation of the lodge in his
efforts to give to his domain an
administration that would re-
dound to the lasting good of the
order.
1t 1920 the lodge was closed
and the members and visitors
repoired to the Armstrong build
ing where a Dutch supper was
served. The affair was ably
managed by the present chan
cellor commander, R. H. Null

STATE ASKS FOR
ONLY $215,OO0, 900
twenty-five Fire Insurance
Companies in this State
In the Bill.

The largest suit ever filed II
any court in Mississippi was
filed in the Chancery Court ol
Lee County the 18th inst. the
aggregate amount of the de-
mands being $2l5, 900, 900. The
suit was brought on the relation
Of the attorney general of the
state, j. B. String, and Hon.
Geo. H. Strange, district Attor-
ney for this judicial district.
Associated with the above rep
resentatives of the state is Hon.
John M. Allen and j. M. Thomas
of Tupelo. and probably Hon:
Robert H. Powell of jackson.
The suit is brought against Is
insurance companies doing busi-
ness in this state known as the
Board Companies, charging them
with violating the antitrust laws
Of Mississippi and seeking to re-
cover penalties provided for in
our statutes. The statutes pro-
vide penalties to the extent 81
not less than $500 ger day nor
more than 5000 for each day
the law is violated. The bill
charges that this violation has
continued for GIG days and asks
the full penalty in each case.
The bill also seeks to oqst these
companies from doing business
in the state.
The defendants have not yet
filed their answers to the bill and
the line of defense cannot yet be
determined. 1t is safe to pre-
dict that able counsel will be
employed and a battle royal will
take place in the courts before
the questions involved are finally
adjudicated.
