Andrew M. Carothsrs
FOR County Attorney

1t is worthy ambition IN any man
to aspire to serve his fellow citizens in
public capacity. In young man
this ambition is worthy of the most Sc
rious consideration by his countrymen
because the world needs to foster with
Jealous care the character and hopes of
those just entering upon life's strenu-
Gus duties.
In presenting the name of Andrew
M. Carothers to the people of Grenada
county as candidate for County At
torney, the Sentinel is unable to refer
to his record as lawyer, for the rea-
son that he will not graduate from the
Law Department until June. But
when it is called to mind that this
Young man has never yet put his hands
to anything that he did not DO wisely
and well, it is not saying too much to
state that his success as lawyer is
assured. He has the ability, the learn
ing, the good common sense and the
industry y-all important factors in ac-
complishing any desired end. He has
made his own money to meet his eX'
penses at the University, something
worthy of strong commendation. he
, possesses a splendid integrity of char
acter, and has always been noted TO
his correct department. He therefor
goes before the people with clean hand

What VIII People Say

A decent respect for the opinion of
mankind is a proper thing, and some
times 1t may be well enough to con
slider what people may say.
But there is a limit.
There are those who make themselves
miserable by the everlasting fear of pub
lie comment. They regulate their con-
duct according to the dictates of the
neighbors.
There are some who will pinch and
scrape and deny themselves the ordi-
nary home comforts in order to appear
well in society. These are constantly put
ting their lives to the test by asking
What will people say?
Others In like manner will scrimp them
selves and put the family on short din
ners to pay for a party or a musicale
or a reception. They will make expendi-
lures out of all proportion to their means
because they ask, If they do not do
So
What will people say?
AS a matter of fact, people probably
will say after they are gone from the
entertainment: "They cannot afford It,
How foolish

Mrs So-and-So will send society per-
sonal to the paper telling how the fam

side or in the mountains when, as

Let people say what they Will.

They will say something, whatever you
do. But probably they will have a bet
ter opinion of you II you attend to your
own business, neglect no proper duty and
hold up your chin. At least they will
respect you, which they will not do If
you try to appear to be what you are
not.
What will people say7
The fearsome interrogatory continually
arises to the lips of many super-sensitive
folk who make themselves miserable or
ridiculous because of 1t.
Live your own life decently, uprightly,
and let people say what they will.
The Meanest Man
The meanest man has been found, and
this is the story of his meanness:
A young man of % years. bright and
Industrious, WAS employed In the shops
of railway company in Chicago.
One day he was passing between some
cars that stood in a poorly lighted pas
sageway. A switch engine suddenly
jammed the cars together, and the young
man was caught between the bumpers.
He escaped instant death.
But he was made a cripple for life,
suffering for many weeks in the hospital
before he could return to the home of
his widowed mother.
This individual is prominent" law
yer of Chicago. who formerly had been
a neighbor of the young mans family
in small town.
The lawyer volunteered his services In
bringing suit against the company for
damages.
1t was very clear that the company
had been negligent in its manipulation of
the cars without proper lighting. The
10 qoid ha .dffficnltu n
collecting damages.
Then this friend of the family began
the tactics of delay. The case was post
poned again and again upon one ex-
cuse or another.
Finally after an important witness had
disappeared and the merits of the case
had been Jeopardized by delay the lawyer
told the family it was impossible to go
on with the case.
1t developed then that the pretended
friend of the family had been hired by
the railroads counsel to postpone the
hearing and keep the plaintiff out of
court.
The sequel?
When the crippled boy realized the
treachery of the lawyer something in
his brain gave way.
He became raving maniac.
Did I not say the meanest man had
been found? Where will you find q
match for this perf1dious scoundrel?
For few cursed dollars he became a
traitor to friendship. robbed a helpless
cripple of his legal rights. left family
without support and drove a human soul
to the depths.
But God Almighty will search him out
either here or hereafter and select him
for punishment.
Else the Almighty is forgetful, which

Our Rapid Age

Ouh AeAPhu heC
Last month Hamilton, the aviator,
drove his aeroplane IL miles in ten min
utes. And he complained that his en-
CINE worked poorly.
By the time you read this that rec
ord may have been broken several
times.
This is the age of bird men.
And, as the slow going stagecoach
was superseded by the locomotive, so
the highest speed of the locomotive will
be considered a slow pace compared with
that of the flying machine.
There are great possibilities In aerial
navigation.
Now the aeroplane must carry a heavy
engine and fuel for 1t. Some of these
days the power will come in electric force
directly from the earth, the great stor-
age battery.
Now the car must be open. which
catches the wind and impedes progress.
By and by the aerial car will be closed
one And men will fly their machines
several times faster than they do now.
"W-h-a-t?" you say
Certainly. No reasonable prophecy re-
specting the speed of the future flying
machine may be considered fanciful
Another thing:
Maj. Gen. Franklin J. Bell former chief
of staff of the United States army. says
that within five years aeroplanes will be
built to carry each crew of five men
and small cargo of explosives and that
guns will be devised to fire upon and de-
stroy air craft from the ground.
We shall see the realization of that
prophecy.
Which leads you to ask what Is to
be the moral effect of these things.
Never fear.
The Almighty did not intend that man
should fulfill his destiny as a worm
crawling on the surface of the earth. AS
man has conquered land and water, so
will he conquer the air.
Also
1t is true that as the means of de-
struction multiply wars must diminish.
The time is coming rapidly when ma
tions no longer can afford to go to war.
Never fear
The more we become the masters of the
elements the more must we become the
masters of ourselves ~ f" tt

Why Punish the Children

Why Punish the Children
The other day 1 saw a poor little kid
die the daughter of a foolish mother,
in much misery.
| 1t was warm day.
The little girls hair was crimped by
tight braiding, and there were big
white bows She was done up in silk
overturned hat, and dainty white slip
pers were upon her feet.
And this for play costume!
A few PAGES down the street l saw
| another little one, the daughter of a
sensible mother, who was having an
excellent time at play.
Her hair had been loosely braided.
She wore a plain, serviceable bingham
frock, a light straw hat and tan SAN
dals
The poor little dressed up thing with
her expensive frock and val insertions
and must-not get dirty slippers was
being sacrificed on the altar of some
mothers silly vanity.
Did you ever note the wistful look
on the face of one of those bedizened
mites as it watched other children al
play?
The other youngsters in their plain
clothes are having a good time. and
the fixed up kid looks on and yearns
to join the happy group. She is de-
barred by fear that she may soil her
clothes.
The suffering of the child is worse
when he happens to be boy.
Not long ago / witnessed a revolt
by a youngster with red blood in his
veins.
His fond and foolish mother had
dressed the young hopeful In immaculate
little Lord Fauntleroy" fashion. She
sent him out to play and doubtless had
given him many warnings about soiling
his clothes.
The little fellow, every inch a boy,
went around the square and as soon as
he was out of the range of his mothers
eyes went on a little rampage. In
few minutes he was sight to behold.
But he was having the time of his
life.
Could you blame the little rebel?
Sensible mothers will not be very
particular about the clothes of their
children in vacation and during hot
weather.
They will save themselves trouble
end worry and expense-and the chill
dren much suffering-by dressing the
youngsters plainly and simply and
turning them loose.
What have the children done that
they should be punished with the curse
of fine clothes?
lives they Will take to frills and furbe-
lows without suggestion.
Why punish them now?
