cred that his own commission over
lie, over the happiness and health
and the fruitage of the life that
now Is, as well as of that which is
to come, is a vastly larger commits

providence is partnership and
that no man may be sleeping

without the penalty of losing the
very thing that life is-a world of

Th1s is the note, surely, as civil

note OF competency. the sense OF

that the greater things are coming

fact that life mirrors itself In such

OF all men. We live in the open,
and no man may become champion
OF any cause and keep the world in
ignorance of the character of the
cause and the nature OF his cham

his light under bushel. 1t is a
tell-tale world. and, more than any
past time, the world to-day has a
ulster sense of values and knows
both the things that are saving It
and the things also that threaten
and endanger it. Public service
was never so responsible as 1t is

And what Is true of public move

Circulation Double That of Any
Other South Mississippi Paper
PAYS TO BOOST.

The following from the Nashville
Tennessean, is so much to the point
that we print it without comment:
Ordinarily a million dollars divided
between hundred men will do more
to build up a city than If one man own
ed the million.
One hundred men with a million
dollars between them never become
stumbling blocks in the way of en-
terprise Millionaires sometimes do.
Birmingham and Chattanooga are
cities of recent growth. They sprang
from the village state as if by magic
The principal reason was that they
were sliced upon by a lot of boosters
who were not millionaires but who de-
sired to be, and started out to be by
booming their home town. Atlanta
caught the fever and so did Nashville.
Col. Coylar once said of the late Her
man Justi. who came here from Louis
vile about 1882, that he had done more
to arouse a spirit of boosterism in
Nashville than any dozen men who
had a great deal more money. Per-
haps the reason was that the dozen
men with more money had never been
to Atlanta, Birmingham and Chatta-
nooga, and didn't really know what a
fine town Nashville was.
Be that as it may, it is true that the
delegation of Nashville boosters. none
of whom are millionaires, who got
home last night, are engaged in work
that must rebound in great benefit to
Nashville. Many warm friendships
and many trade relations spring from
this mingling of the boosters among
the people in the territory contiguous
to Nashville. In this way a city i'm
percectibly takes on fat, and before
the boosters know it Nashville will
have more orders for shirts than can
be honored.
To have friends, a city must show
itself friendly. In seeking to establish
