NOTES
BY the "ROunder."

What Grenada needs is first and
most of all live huStling business
league composed of business men,
who will 20 out after results, and
then we need an Elk's lodge. We
need an up-to-date opera house. We
need some factories. We need COM
peting line OF railway, but these
things as badly rs they are needed
are not coming to us if we sit with
our hands folded and wait for them
We will have to go out for them. We
need more ''live ones," and fewer
dead OneS," and fewer knockers. F"
The proper place for the federal
court, in this district, is Grenada not
Oxford. Two.thirds OF the people,
who have business with this court
have to come to Grenada to spend
the night or else part of the day in
order to get to Oxford. If We had
good live business league and went
out after this court, we could gee IL
here. What we need is to get to-
gether and show the power that be"
the advantages of Grenada over Ok
ford or any other town in the district.
If we secured this court. it would
mean a handsome government build
ing for US.
All comes to him, who waits" is
true in some cases, but this does not
apply to a city. The big things come
to city only, when it's people go out
and hustle for them. Let's get
busy' for a business league and have
sure enough "up-to the minute
town."

TATUM ASKS RE-ELEC.
TION.

Mr.. S. T. Tatum submits his
name to the citizenship of Gre
NADIA for reelection to the Office
of mayor. relying upon his record
made during this term to again
give him the endorsement of the
voters.
Upon the whole, it will not be
denied that he has made a good
mayor To say that he has made
no mistakes, would be attributing
to him attributes almost superhu-
man. He has lent his influence
to continue Improvements and
manifested progressive spirit
about affairs touching the welfare
of the town in general and his ex-
perience at the head of city af-
fairs should undoubtedly qualify
him to render faithful steward
ship the second term than the
first one.
Mr.. Tatum is good citizen
and deserving mar and The
SENTINEL bespeaks for him the
careful consideration of the i'm
partial public.

Two Soldiers.

Great love hath no man than this,
that he lay down his life for his
| brother. John Is: 13.
| Side by side in nook of Gods Acre.
Where the moss of the trees sweeps
low.
Are sleeping two fair-haired soldiers
I Who each to the other was foe
And one wore the blue Of the North
land.
The other the gray Of the South.
But the Laurel that waves O'er the
lOwly graves
Was not won at the cannOn'S mouth
In the deadliest shock of the battle,
Midst the carnage of shot and she'll.
These brave young fOemen struggled.
And each of the others hand fell
But the God of battles and mercieS
fingered yet when the strife was
DER,
And the brother.man love touched
their hearts from above
Ere they reached the shadOwy shore.
AS dying they lay midst the dying,
The life-current ebbing away.
From one came the pleading for water,
The burning would-thirSt to allay-
Such pleading ne'er yet went un-
needed
By the wearerS Oh gray and blue
To succor the dying, their own
wounds defying.
Move the chivalrouS soul and true.
The dawn s early light told the story
OF the soul-truce that held in the
night
Two blood stained corpSeS embracing,
A soldiers canteen clasped tight
And one wore the blue of the North
land,
The other the gray Of the South
But the victory won when the battle
was done,
Was not plucked at the cannon'S
mouth.

Editor Sentinel:

/ Editor Sentinel:
! l have been thinking of writing
a letter to your newsy paper for
! quite a while, but | have been
waiting for the wheel of time to
unfold something new and inter-
esting to relate, and at last I have
been rewarded.
A few days ago two of our
young and romantic people, Mr.,
Ed Stevens and Miss Genie Far
rell concluded after very little
meditation to unite their fate, SO
they hied away to CoHeevilIe,
where they were quickly made
one, by words spoken by Bro.
Mahaffy. They returned in the
evening to the home of the moth
er Of the groom where they found
nice supper and lot OF their
young friends awaiting to con-
graduate them. The moments
after supper were spent in merry
conversation and games until
the "wee sma' hours" then all
bidding the happy couple adieu
and wishing them a long and
happy life and wondering who
the next one would be.
| think the prospect is very
good for two r:ore this winter. |
am glad to see our neighborhood
expanding, for SO many had left
that | wanted to leave too.
Our youg folks are anticipating
nice time Christmas, in the
form Of box party. All who
desire to participate are cordially
invited; the money obtained
thereby to be put to some good
purpose.
Our neigeborhood is improv-
ing anyhow. Some have gone in
to the saw mill business, some
steam gins, and one has a gaso-
line. engine attached to his gin.
Talk about steam power, it is
certainly a wonder, you just turn
the wheel and adjust a screw and
off she goes putting.
The crops we're cut off just
halls this year in this vicin-
ity, but | think the price Of the
cotton and seed awakens hope
full feeling in the hearts of the
farmer, and | am afraid that they
will over crop themselves next
year with cotton. If the farmer
would raise everything else for
home consumption and let cotton
be a surplus, this country would
be independent of northern mar
kets.
| intended saying something
about trip to Greenwood and ifi
a certain young man was still
wearing his feather, but | fear |
have waited too long.
/ am sorry to hear of the mis-
fortune of J. M. Bailey of Court
land, in the burning of his fine
residence. Those that have must |
lose, but we always rather that
it was somebody else. Mr.. Bail
ey has the sympathy of his old
neighborhood.
l will now bid the many read
ers adieu. hoping all a merry
Christmas and a happy New
Year.
