Improved Order Red Men

| In another column we publish the OF
| ficial program of the ms,ting of ths
| Great Council of the Imoroved Order
Redmen which convenes here beginning
on Monday Nav oath and concluding
i Tuesday the following day. Just how
| many delegates will be in attendance
is difficult at this time to forecast but
according to records of this body there
are something like 251 eligible mem
bers in the state. As rule not all these
ever attend. and therefore it is safe
to estimate that there will be anywhere
around $50 visitors in Tupelo during
the two days mentioned AS this is
Tupelo's first attempt to entertain the
state body of any of the Fraternal or
ders it is to be hoped that her treatment
of the visitors on this occasion will be
such that all the other orders will at
some time in the future select this as
the place of annual meeting.
Every memberof the local Tribe is
! doing his whole duty in the matter and
will be ably assisted by a committee
| appointed by the Commercial Club who
were recently appointed by that body
to assist in the matter of making the
visitors feel the royal welcome extend
ed them, and bid them enjoy the free
dom of our city and the hos ospitality OF
our citizens.
This organization is self sustaining,
and owing to our excellent hotel facili-
ties there will ben demand made upon
the private families to open their djo
for the entertainment of the delegate,
and not that we doubt but that many
would gladly do so if the conditions de-
manded it.
All that is asked and expected of the
citizens of Tupelo is that they make
it their own pleasant duty topersonaliy
meet as many of the visitors as posi-
bic endeavor to make them feel at home
and in addition to that all will be ex-
pected to decorate their hoMes and
places of business to whatever extent
they feelincined in the tribal colors
blue, green and scarlet Most of
the representatives and officers will ar
rive on Monday, and it is to beehopad
that after they have spent the two days
in our midst they will leave with words
of praise for Tupelo.

Cement Walks

At a meeting of the Mayor and Board
of Aldermen Thursday night the ques-
tion of putting in cement walks in town
was brought up, and the matter pretty
freely discussed. After full discussion
it was decided to order a census taken
of the town for the purpose of de-
termining under which section of the
code of 1906 the work could be done.
the sections differing for town under
1900 people, and for those over 1900.
This work will be done by Superinten-
dent Clayton who is now busily engaged
in getting the names ,of all people by
wards. After the census is tax en the
question will come up for final he airing
before the board.
As to the manner of putting down
the walks, Messrs. Leake and Goodlette
propose to put the walks down for none
desiring to have them do so, and let
the property owner pay for same in
monthly installments, the period ex-
tending over 10 months. They make d
price of II cents foot on the Hssall-
ment plan.

property owners of the trouble arising
