DR.. VIM. Irvine of Greenwood,
Miss, will deliver the opening ad-
dress at Chamerlain-Hunt Acade.
my on Wednesday, Sept. 14th, al
II a. m. He is a strong speaker,
and the public is invited.
On Friday night, 10th, the CHI
stuents will tender a reception to
the College girls on the CHI. A.
campus.
On Sunday, 18th, the first Sun
day after the opening, the two
student bodies will worship at the
Methodist church and Rev. l..
NeilI will deliver the sermon. On
Sunday night the two will worship
again at the Presbyterian church,
at which time Rev. R. L. Benn
will preach to the young people.
Both schools have bright pros
poets. In fact, they were never
better. tits hoped that the support
of the entire community will be
gwen heartily to these two schools
this year. The presence of 200 OF
more young people in the town not
only adds to the material advan-
tags of our people, but adds much
in other ways.
Let our people make Port Glib
son known over the South as an
educational center.

The Price of Cotton.

Scales, Hayne and Brown, the
well known cotton bulls, have is.
sued a circular in which they pre-
dict that the maximum price of
cotton will be r6 cents. After re.
citing that last years crop brought
around IS cents with a large re.
serve from the preceding year to
be worked off, they declare that
the prospects indicate that the
present crop will not exceed II, :
600, 900 bales, and that, based on
these figures, the producer will be
foolish indeed to accept less than
10 cents.

GIVES LIFE FOR CHILD.
Earl Van Dorm Miller Crushed to
Death by Falling Tree.

To save a child, Earl Van Dorm
Miller, sixty.six years old, a veter-
an of the Confederacy, gave his
life Saturday evening. Word Of
the accident was received here yes
terday by Mrs. T. Marshall Miller,
sister-ih- law of the dead man.
According to the incomplete in
formation sent by wire, Mr.. Miller
was directing the cutting down of
[ some trees near the state saw mill,
Parchman, Miss, when the acci-
dent happened. As one of the
trees was tottering to its fall, a
little child ran directly into its
path. Mr.. Miller saw and threw
himself forward to save the young
ster. He was caught by the trunk
of the tree and crushed
Mr.. Miller had a splendid civil

on the staff of Gen. Van Dorm and
won name for bravery at the
front. After the war he engaged
in the lumber business. He leaves
a widow and six children at the
home in Jackson, Miss. His moth
er is living with Gen. T. MarshalI

The body was taken to Jackson,
where the funeral was held a few
hours later.-Times- Democrat, 5th.

Startling Figures.

One of the strongest, most prac-
tical reasons for diversihcation of
crops which the Times has ever
seen presented was given at the
oats and wheat meeting Saturday
by f. O. Conant, Secretary of the
Board of Trade. 1t consisted of
figures taken from the. books of the
railroad companies and showing
actual shipments into Brookhaven
of articles which could be produced
at home. It is startling te realize
that the merchants of Brookhaven
alone received and sold from July
I, 1909, to July 1910, $646,o6I
worth of such products-more than
$25 for each man, woman and
child in the county. This takes
into account only such products as
it has been demonstrated can be
raised here. In one year over six
hundred thousand dollars-ten per
cent of the assessed valuation of
the county-paid to the farmers of
the West for provisions and feed
stuffs which could be produced at
homel Think, farmers, what it
would mean to you and to all the
county il that money had been
kept at home. OF course it will
always be necessary to call on 9TH
er states and other lands for sugar,
coffee and many other articles, but
most of the necessaries Of life can
be produced right here and find a
ready market.
The figures compiled by Mr..
Conant are shown below. Give
them careful and thoughtful con-
sideration and let US see if pro-
ducer and consumer cannot agree
on a home market supplied with
home raised products.
