his arrival In England affords the Brit
fish their first opportunity to make a
real lion Of him. The fact that Lieu
tenant Shackleton went farther south
than any explorer had gone before and
nearer to the south pole than any n
has yet gone to the north pole gives
the English public something to crow
about. The point he reached In his
antarctic exploration was only Ill
miles from the south pole. His expe-
dition has resulted in adding much tc
polar lore, and he concludes that the
south pole Is situated on a plateau
10000 to 1900 feet above sea level.

petitions, and the one which he head
ed and from which he has just re-
turned started out in July, 1907, on the
Nimrod. The party had many thrill
ing experiences. One was described
thus by Lieutenant Shackleton:
ION the morning of Jan. 26, 1908.
our food was finished. 1t was slow
going. Sixteen miles were covered in
twenty-five hours march. as the snow
was two feet deep and there were
many concealed crevasses. We reached
the lower glacier depot, in latitude
S3.45, on the afternoon of the 9th.
There we obtained food and were able
to proceed with greater speed. We
reached the Grisi depot-named after
the dead pony on Feb. 2. with no
food remaining. Wild was suffering
from dysentery, the effects of the
horse meat. and on Feb. 4 the entire
party was Frustrated from the same
disease and unable to move. For eight
days the men suffered; but, our condi-
tion improving inc helped by strong
southerly billiards., we managed to
make u way to Chinaman depot,
which we reached on Feb. 10. The
food had again run out.
1.-THE blizzard continued with so de-
grees of frost. and we discarded ev-
erything except our camp outfit and
geological specimens and on Feb. 20
reached the next depot, all our food
being finished. The high winds were
now accompanied by an exceedingly
low temperature. but they were be
hind us. and three days later we came
in sight Of the depot on Minna bluf."

Last Saturday afternoon the T.
Bell Watson at her home on College
street A very exciting business meet
ing was held before the social part
of the afternoon began. Pins for
the club girls and other business
was considered. Miss Mamie Bell
then thought she would test our
scientific ability by passing contests
which required answers pertaining
to the body. After We scraped our
brains to show our tact here; she
put us to chewing yard length
strings without the aid of our hands
to try to capture the red stick OF
candy which hung so temptingly
from the string. Another trying lit
tie stunt was to bite the big apples
without touching them which were
suspended from the ceiling. After
this excitement, Miss Mamie Bell
had us cut for the prize, beautiful
little handkerchief, in which Susie
Lomax was the winner of the dainty
gift. Delicious Spanish pudding, Rus
sian Rocks. grape juice and angel
food were served by Miss Mamie
Bell and her mother. There will be
no meeting this afternoon on ac-
count of the CleburneWax HE
football game. REPORTER.

The Heroes Of Peace.

It takes much more courage IN
the every day work Of life to live
up to the high ideals Of life than
itsdoes in war, where the bands
are playing and the excitement Of
the hour carries men on to the
face of death. Many men face
the cannon's mouth because it is
less dangerous than turning to
run the other way. In battle the
great. generals have told us there
is little personaIcourage exhibited.
A regiment has one or two daring
men who press forward and others
follow.
In the humdrum of life there is
no band, no cannon's roar no one
exhorting you to keep straight
ahead. You must do your duty
without the excitement which
battle brings. You little boys and
girls can become greater heroes by
doing your full duty in civil life
than you could by going to war
because it is harder to keep your
courage day after day without the
excitement Dr. Emil Il. Hirsch.
The city itemizer. (Water Valley, Miss.) 1894-1918, 1909-10-28
Keep A Stiff Upper Lip.

Keep stiff upper lip. 1t is one
of the requisites OF success the
world over Reverses may over
whelm, ftiIures may discourage,
sickness may fisarrange plans,
but don't give up. Many battle
has been won after the old flag
was tattered and torn until but a
remnant remained Your plans
may be shattered, your arrange
ments rent a5under, bat don't give
up. Keep a stiff upper lip; set
your standard anew and keep
trying.
The world has no use for the
gutter. They make the history
of the yesterdays. The man who
keeps trying is the man Of the to-
morrows. Others have succeeded
where you foresee failure. Try it
again. Keep a stiff upper lip and

push onward, upward. There is
niche in the worlds activity for
all. If you haven't anchored,
push onward, establish your har-
Dor far down the stream Of en-
deavor. Again: Don't give up;
keep striving, and keep a stiff
upper lip.-Natchez News.

The world delights i'll sunny
people. The old are hungering
for love more than for bread The
air of JOY is very cheap; and if you
can help the poor on with gar
ment of praise it will be better for
them than blankets -EX.

Missing the Point,

1t is often a positive duty to
cultivate an incapaoity TO see and
to hear. For there is such thing
as seeing and hearing q great deal
too much; and we make ourselves
and others miserable when we do
this. There are unkind things, for
example, said to Us or about as,
evidences of others dislike or an.
tagonism, or--what is harder to
bear-their Indifference to us or
their desire to snub or humiliate
US; and when any Of these things
come within our range Of sight or
hearing, we are very likely to de-
vote ourselves to the disagreea BILE
aspects of the case with consider
able intensity. That is because
self-wounded, suffering, indig-
nant, or angry self-is allowed to
take control OF US just then and
give back ''aS good as we got, =
which always means worse than
we got Then follows bitterness
and heart-burning indeed. The
only safe way at such time is to
strive to be blind or deaf. Self
must be roughly treated to accom-
plish this; crushed, ignored, tram
pled under foot or killed. Only
when we ourselves thus treat self
can we learn the art of not seeing
and not hearing; to be SO indiffer-
ent to the word or act that hurts,
that an onloOker would suppose,
if watching our face, that we had
quite missed the point Of what
was said or done. The Y f-mas-
terry that will not see or hear an
affront is possible only to one who
is Christ mastered. All enemies
are helpless against one who thus
insists on missing the points.

For Father and Mother,

Do Dot-mother at your house
wcrk. father in your study-do
not be always "too busy" The
little heart wants an outlet, the
upraised bud wants a kiss, the
little hearts have something to tell
you, little grief to bring, a small
joy, a game of play expected now
and then. All, beware! Those
requirements will slacken and will
cease if it be too often. "Now
run away, dear, father is busy
"Don't be troublesome, dear,
mother must do her work."
Of course there must be checks
sometimes; Of course overindul-
gence is the worst kindness. But
be not, as a rule, repellaut, un-
sympathetic; they will 60 else
where, after a while, with their
little contidences, their little griets
and joys; their little winning
ways, with the refreshment Of their
pure delightful beings. Perhaps
you will b sorry ihen-then when
the mischief is done-sorry when
the new toy is no longer, as a
matter of course, brought first to
"father' to see; when the toddling
feet seek elsewhere, but to mother
for drying of tears, when the pat
ter of unsteady feet always passes
your door. All, you will be sorry
then that you were SO foolish,
sorry that you scared the birds
away.-From the Home Circle of
the Grenada Sentinel.
The city itemizer. (Water Valley, Miss.) 1894-1918, 1909-10-28

Kindness is slowed away in the
heart like rose leaves in a draw
er-to sweeten every object around.

Itjsau almost invarisble custom at
public gatherings Of southerners In the
north to protest their loyalty to the
limited States. / believe that the time
has come when there Is not only no
ground for, bat conclusive reason against
giving special emphasis as soutberners
to such declaration. By implication
they suggest doubt where none should
EXIT, and Que Of such Importance as not
ia be ignored. They do not reflect
true appreciation Of the spirit OF the
day.
Right; southern gusbers for yesrs past
have been protesting too much their
'loyslty," thus SIMPLIFYING themselves
and bringing ridicule, If not contempt,
upon the people Of the south who are
heartily ashamed Of these spOlOgistS,
who, as matter of fact, speak only for
themselves aud to curry fsvors. This
il but one country now and to say thai
one section of 1t is more "loyaP than
