The members of the List society met

were entertained in most charming
manner. Miss Nellie Holt presided and
conducted the business of the meeting.
Miss Edna Bush was the leader of the
program. The study of Russia's music
and musicians was continued, and the
interest of the members was directed to
Moskowski and Tschaikowsky. Miss
Mary Clyde Holt gave brief account
Of Moskowski. Miss Bush called atten-
tlon to collection of Moskowski's own
composition of foreign music, which rep
resents the life of the people of many
countries. The contrasts between the
different nations music were explained,
and the music numbers of the program
were selected to further show these con-
trasts:

The Vardaman managers claim
that they have the people, the

all the most effective moral and
civilized agencies with them, and
yet they cry persecution, yenal
courts, rascaily legislators, base

and all other malign agencies are
obstructing their 'triumpal

a ''conquering hero" program.

The good year of 1910 is draw.
ing to a close; only one week oil
it remains but it is the best OF
the year, so the children say and
certainly they know best. The
revolving year has brought seed
time. summer and harvest. The
Bountiful Giver Of all good things
has dealt bounteously with the
people of Noxubee, and surely
they should be in humor for the
Christmas of 1910. The cribs are
full of corn, the smokehouse full
of meat and the banks full of the
money of the depositors who are
the rank and file of the people.
Living in the best county in the
best state in the best country in
the world, after a prosperous
year, they are indeed a fortunate
people, with the horn Of plenty
inverted over their heads.
But the owning and receiving
of blessings or benefits are not
the only nor the chief pleasures
in life. The doing and the CIV
ing of good to others confers a
higher happiness. For one week
in the year economy should give
place to liberality. For a while,
at least. the stern and profitable
virtues should abdicate in favor
of the generous and unselfish i'm
pulses of the heart.
1t was sound and true philoso-
ply that prompted an old Eng
lishman, who died two. hundred
years ago, to have put upon his
tombstone
"Whdt spent I had;
What sdDed lost;
What / gdDe haze"
The event which Christm IS is
the anniversary of. is the great
est happening since the creation
of the world. 1t is the birth of
Him whose life and death have
exerted more and better influence

event in history, and the essence
of that life and death was unset

comes decision from the United States
Court at Sioux Falls, Judge Garland
presiding, giving the express companies
doing business in this state permanent
injunction against the enforcement of
the law. In his decision Judge Garland
holds that the act of the Legislature did
not give the state board of railroad
commissioners the authority to make
the schedule of rates complained of by
the express companies. The result of
this great reform" movement is big
additional expense bill for the state
which the taxpayers can foot and con-
tinue to pay the old express rates. Just
another case of more expense and moth
