THOUSANDS ATTEND
S. S. CONVENTION
HELD IN WASHINGTON, D. c.
MORE THAN FIFTY DIFFERENT NATIONS
WERE REPRESENTED AT TIE
GREAT MEETING

Unprecedented for its cosmo-
politanism, unequaled in the
magnitude of its constituency,
and unsurpassed as a spectacle.
the Worlds Sixth Sunday School
Convention in Washington. ID.
c.. May 1924, marks an event in
religious history.
President Taft was not alone
in expressing amazement over
the size and character of the
Convention. He looked out over
a sea of sis thousand faces on
the opening night, while outside
the Convention Hall a still larger
number of persons congregated,
unable to enter Nearly twenty
five hundred of the official dele
gates wore red ribbon badges
with the legend North Ameri-
ca " Some five hundred others
wore blue badges bearing the
names of more than fifty differ
ent nations, as remote as China
and South America, Turkey and
Australia. In addition to these
three thousand official and repre-
sentative delegates from every
state and province in the United
States and Canada and from
foreign lands. there were about
seven thousand unofficial dele
gates or visitors. Sometimes
three and four simultaneous con-
vention sessions were inadequate
to hold the throngs.
1t was a spectacular conven-
ton. The great Mems Bible
Class Parade on the afternoon of
May 20 opened the eyes of Wash
ington to the Virility and mascu-
Unity of modern religion. In or
der that some m mbers of Con-
gress might march nm the parade,
as they did, and that others
might witness it Congress. ad-

demonstration. Torrential rains
Immediately preceded and fol-
lowed the parade. largely re-
ducing the ranks; nevertheless
five thousand men in a hammered
procession a mile long marched
down Pennsylvania Avenue, and
were reviewed at the Capitol by
a throng of ten thousand persons.

meeting.

Stomach Dead
Man Still Lives

People who suffer from sour
stomach, fermentation of food, dis
tress after eating and Indigestion,
and seek relief in large chunks of
artificial digesters, are killing their
stomachs by inaction just as sure
ly as the victim of morphine is
deadening and injuring beyond re-
pair every nerve in his body.
What the stomach of every suf-
ferer from indigestion needs is a
good prescription that will build
up his stomach, put strength, en-
ergy and elasticity into it, and
make it sturdy enough to digest
hearty meal without artificial aid.
The best prescription for indi-
gestion ever written is sold by
druggists everywhere and by the
Mayo Drug Co., and is rigidly
guaranteed to build up the stom-
ach and cure indigestion, or money
back.
This prescription is named Miro
ma, and is sold in small tablet form
in large boxes, for only so cents.
Remember the name, Mi-o-na
stomach tablets. They never fail.
They contain ingredients that give
quick relief (other than strong di-
gesters) !, but they are compounded
for the purpose of making the
stomach strong and energetic
enough to do its work without the
aid of harmful drugs.

DIPLOMAS GIVEN To
TWENTYFOUR PUPILS
EXERCISES WEDNESDAY NIGHT
PRESIDENT HENRY [. WHITFIELD MADE
A STRONG AND FORCEfUL TALK
To THE CLASS.

The grauating exercises of the
High School were held at the
Opera House Wednesday even
ing at $50 o'clock. The class
composed of "A members is the
largest in the history of the
Franklin Academy.
Hon. H. l. Whitfield made the
address of the evening. His
plea for Industrial education in
Mississippi was strong, forceful
and to the point. The idea that
education should be means for
solving the problems of 10th
century life is rot only true but
is rapidly becoming the end of
modern education. Too much
stress can not be laid upon the
thought advanced by him that
education by the state in a state
college should not be regarded as
a personal asset; that everyone
who receives State College ad-
vantages should go out into the
various communities of the State
and become leaders of and apos-
ties for, better living. Very
timely was his suggestion that
we look the question squarely in
the face and recognize the fact
that however great our fore
fathers might have been, their
greatness could not carry us
through. Mississippians must
wake up to the fact that Missis-
ippians must develope Mississip-
pi or lose it, for they who will
develope will own.
The class representatives re-
Elected credit upon their instruct
ers. Miss Bessie Weaver, as
Salutorian, presented the English
lyric, Crossing the Bar Miss
