A newspaper is not an object Of
charity, but it ought to be considered
by every man who has dollar to
spend in advertising. In other words
the business man who wishes to in
crease his business can always do so
most successfully by newspaper adver-
Using and in using the columns of his
local paper he indirectly reaps bene-
fit by helping build up a good strong
news paper which in turn helps build
up the community. The money sent
out of town for advertising specialties

lection of his countrymen. He chose,
being so situated TO enter fer private
profit into secret relations with a
corporation outlawed from his own

during several years unknown to his
people and by that means he acquired
a fortune. When the facts were first
revealed he denied them and attempt
ed to conceal them. The proof was
overwhelming, and from that day Sen

was blasted. not by the denunciations

action.

Washington is of no importance, ex-

The News is pleased to note the
appointment of Mr.. J. l.. Hawley as
general freight and passenger agent
of the Gulf and Ship Island Hallway. to
succeed Mr.. S. d. Boyleston Mr..
Hawley has been chief clerk of that
department for a number of years
and we feel sure that the interests
of the Gulf and Ship Island could not
be better served than by the appoint
ment of Mr.. Mawley to this important
position. 1t is especially important to
this section, because Mr.. Hawley is
thoroughly impressed with the fact
that the railways must do something
to help develop this country and he
can be counted on to do all that is in
his power to promote immigration
and assist in the development of the
cut-over lands. South Mississippi rail
ways need men like Mr.. Hawley in
charge of their traffic business, for
he knews that they must have more
farmers if they are to have more
freight.

PRACTICAL EDUCATION.

The Chicago man who made a fort.
une building elevators, and who would
burn down the colleges because he
does not see the necessity of them or
arther thinks that they spoil more
people than they benefit, is one of
those extremists who are impractical
in the matter of education, Just as we
find scores of educators who are i'm
practical because they think that edu-
cation, as it is generally understood
is all that is needed to save the coun-
try.
The fact is that we need a happy
medium between two such extremes
and the change, which will come is
necessarily revolutionary from an edu-
cational standpoint. for it means that
in the future the capability and adapt
ability of the student must be deter
mined in the primary work and some
plan evolved which will stop the waste
of time in education and obviate fail
ure by determining what the child is
best fitted for. That each individual
should have a primary education
which will fit him for intelligent &C,
ton in life, does not admit of any con.
troversy, but why wear him out with
studies which never benefit him when
some practical work might be given
him which would deyelope his natural
bent which would make a practical.
satisfied man out of him and which
would fit him to do any reasonable |
kind of work.
Our people make the mistake of over |
educating the boys especially, and want |
to make doctors and lawyers out Of |
them, when these professions are al,
ready overcrowded. What we want is
more successful farmers and we want
TO teach the dignity Of labor, instead
of impressing our boys and girls with
the idea that they must learn some,
thing that will enable them to live
without work. There are too many

She was gently drumming the keys
as the curtain went up. GROUPED
about the stage were four men. Two
violins, flute and cello made up
the musical effect. First she played
"The Rosary" with her assistants
coming in for the finer effects.
When the music died there came

Then she played Kisses" and after

unless it had been necessary. 1t was
the one thing that | could do to earn

managers, but I told them that under
no circumstances would conside any
