Many New Buildings.

In order for one to get an idea OF
what is being done in the building
line in this city, it is only necessary
to drive or ride a few blocks on the
street cars. One can scarcely travel
a block without noticing two or three
handsome and substantial residences
in course of construction, while al
most every block in the residential
districts contain newly-erected homes
which are now occupied by the own
ers.
Notwithstanding the fact that so
many new homes have been built re-
Gently. The News is informed by real
estate men and owners of rental prop
ereies that there are very few desira
BILE vacant houses at this time, and
the demand is increasing steadily.
During the past few days the de
mand for vacant property has become
unite general, and numerous transfers
have been made. Owners of building
lots are receiving offers from pros
pective purchasers and a general loos
ening up of conditions is noticeable

QUESTION OF LOCATION
WILL CUT NO figure
Hattiesburg And Forrest County Will
Be Pleased With Any Site Which
The Trustees Choose to Decide Up
on.-No Friction Here.

The building committee of the
State Normal College will meet in Hat
tiesburg tomorrow Notwithstanding
the fact that a statement to the con.
trary was made only few days since.
1t seems that the chairman Of this
committee is straining a point to
have this meeting tomorrow for some
reason possibly with no other view
than the location of the school at the
most available point as quickly as
possible.
The people of Hattiesburg and For
rest county are and have been a unit
in getting the school located at Hat
tiesburg and will be no less united on
the location wherever the board in its
wisdom may select.
Mr.. Wickliffe Rose, Of the Genera
Educational Board, will be. here al
the committee meeting tomorrow. His
connection with this committee make!
his coming a matter of much impor
tance, as it is usually expected tina
the two buildings will be furnished b.
funds he represents.
His impression of Hattiesburg ant
its people will count for good or harm
as the case may be, and 1t goes with
out saying that Mr.. Rose will be wei
cared for while in the city.

A fine INVESTMENT
FOR this COUNTY
Just a Few Of a Large Number OF
Reasons Why The County Will Ben
eft As Result Of Locating the Col
Iege In Hattiesbura.

Congratulations from all parts Of
the state have been pouring in upon
Hattiesburg on account OF securing
the Normal School, and one might
conclude that Hattiesburg alone would
be the beneficiary. This is not true.
It is true that the good people Of
Forrest county and the board of su-
pervisors of Forrest county have
viewed the situation from the broad
minded point that what benefits Hat
tiesburg, benefits Forrest county, but
the county will secure benefits over
and above this; benefits perhaps few
have thought Of.
First, the school is to be established
primarily for the training of teachers
for the rural schools. The better the
teachers Of the rural schools, the bet
ter the training and education Of the
children of the county districts. There
are many well-trained teachers in thu
country schools of Mississippi. Ther'
are many schools that need bette
teachers. But of the ten thousand
teachers actively employed in thi
state, perhaps half are secured from
other states; this, because of the fac
that the number of teachers in Mis-
sissippi who can readily qualify unde
the present liberal regulations is limit
ed.
