received homage, but it is high time
that some concrete expression of this
feeling be erected.
Brave men and true they were who
marched to the front in 81, but there
were many hearts remaining which
burned for the men who were fighting
the battles of the Confederacy, and
whose words and acts of devotion car
ried these men through the dark DAYS
of the war and those darker days of
the reconstruction period. Then there
were those who braved the dangers of
the battlefields and nursed the wound
ed and dying, and wore homespun in
stead of silks and satins which they
had worn; and all this without MUIR
muir.
And these are the women the legis-
lature proposes to honor We hardly
think there is a man with the possible
exception of Senator Hepburn,
throughout this broad land who would
raise a voice In protest against this
measure. Many years have passed
since the heroism of these women be-
came the talk of the civilized world,
and the honor which is about to be
conferred was due many years ago.
There should be no delay now, and al.
though their fame will live as long as
there is a nation, they should be com.
memorated in brass and stone which
will live for many generations to come

LOOKING PLEASANT.

Why is it that most people, as they
walk along the streets or ride in the
cars, have such an unpleasant express
sion? If one will observe even casual
ly the people he meets in a day he will
be impressed with the panied and sui
len and disagreeable countenance. We
live in rush, and the average person
is bent on some errand; we are all
rushing to get something or some
where. With this absorbing our atten-
ton we haven't time to attend to our
facial expression. We are not sure,
however, that this is a matter of per-
missible Indifference. If one does not
believe that his countenance adds to
or detracts anything from the lives or
expressions of others let him pause
for a moment before that now cele.

SOUTH MISSISSIPPI COLLEGE.

The burning of the main building Of
the South Mississippi College, which
included the chapel and recitation
hall, was a great misfortune to Hat
tiesburg. Any hurt or injury of this
character to school, always hurts
the town in which it is located, worse
than it does the individuals connected
with it; it being so much easier for an
individual to move and take up work
in new quarters, than it is for COM
munity to establish a school in it's
midst.
There seems to be some uneasiness
in the mind of some as to whether
this college will be able to rebuild as
it should. To what extent that fear
Is founded upon fact, or is born OF
solicitude, The News does not know.
But we beg to suggest this; that the
parties interested in the bonds, and
beneficiaries of the insurance money,
erd trustees or directors of the
school, cannot be too prompt in some
action that will allay this fear, and
stop any idle rumors that may be
afloat concerning the future of Hat
tiesburg's pride. South Mississippi
College.
ai~
The thought Of allowing this college
to suffer, in this rich community. for
the lack Of funds, II we may use the
expression. is unthinkable. It Is the
only school Of its kind and magnitude
in South Mississippi. It is peculiarly
located to become in time, a great
institution. In the educational field
and work of this section of the State,
II is as a city set upon a hill. Be-
cause Of the wide territory it serves
and its exclusive service to that ter
, ritory. it is public benefactor. Last,
but not least, it is Hattiesburg's pro-
tege; Hattiesburg is it's foster moth
err; and the town that let's little
fire burn out all its ardor for educa-
ton and the building up of it's COM
munity through education, shows a
woeful lack of staying qualities,
We take it without inquiring into Or
discussing that phase of the suestion,
that Hattiesburg has no idea of with
holding any help the school may
need. The main purpose of this ar
ticle is the suggestion that that help
should be prompt, and generally
known and understood, so that
through lack of understanding there
may be no misapprehension of what
will be done.
AS a financial venture, this school
started at a most inopportune time.
It was the year before the financial
cyclone, coming from a clear sky, hit
the country from one end to the other

THE PHONOGRAPH

Edison took out his first patent on
this record of sound in 1877. Not un-
until eleven years later did the in
strument become of an" value. In
1888 he invented a wax composition
for the record and then the instru-
ment became something more than
a curiosity. The 1877 type OF ma
chine received the impress OF the
needle of the vibrating diaphragm
upon a sheet of tin foil wrapped
about a drum much larger than the
wax cylinder now in use. rms ma
terial was so soft and the action OF
the reproducing needle was so coarse
that it was necessary to make cast
ings of the tinfoil record in some
harder substance.
