The attention of the Journal has been
called to the matter of some of our
young people using church property
| for picnic grounds. The young people
have been thoughtless, and while they
have not deprecated. they have left
| evidences that the house of worship
| had been used in which to partake of
their dinner and some other little
indiscretions INDUCED in. 1t is not
well to make the holy places OF some
| the playground of others, and we sug-
gest to our young people that it would
be better not to visit the churches and
cemeteries on picnic excursions. We
can site you to more suitable places.
| and if you will call at the office after
you have planned your little outing. we
will suggest a spot with shady groves
ard a flowing well where the dav can
be spent with pleasure to the young
| people and without embarrassment or
| offense to any one. The young people
| Of Tupelo are as well behaved as any
set of young people it las ever BEEN
our good fortune to know, and we feel
sure that this suggestion will be taken
in the same kindly spirit that it is
made.
