The Pioneers

sing you song
Of men who were strong,
In days when this land was new.
OF the men who dared,
And the men who cared,
And the deeds theysused to do.
Of men who were brave,
And the years they gave
In a struggle that never ceased;
Who welcomed their toll.
In strange new soil
The men from away down east
Whom Ambition urge
Sent forth to the verge
Of an untamed wilderness,
But who murmured not
OF their stern, hard lot,
Nor cared for the storm or stress;
OF those pioneers,
Who banished their fears
And builded their cabins rude,
The breadth of their hope
Like the boundless scope
Of land by their toll subdued
In the truths they taught,
And the faith they broug ght
Lay hopes of the golden West;
And they paid the price
With their sacrifice,
! And proved their dreams in the test
They have played their parts,
But how oft stout hearts
Were by self-set tasks dismayed-
For every man
Had to make his plan
And build by the plans he made S
There were days oppressed
BY their souls unrest,
When doubts and misgivings stirred:
When they felt the cost
OF things they had lost
And the pangs of hope deferred.
But firm on their feet,
After each defeat,
They battled with greater zest,
Till they won at length,
BY their dauntless strength.
This glorious, golden west.
That is why, tonight,
We can find delight
In that which has brought us here
In the love we boast
To propose toast
To grand old pioneer.

ALCOHOL RELATION TO THE SERPENT.

S. S. Times, Philadelphia, Pa. a5t
So it looks as though alcohol were
doomed to lose even its time honored
prestige as a snake bite remedy. The
best that can be said of it seems to
be that it may help to keep the
heart going, as one of the least val
liable of stimulants. if one has not
at hand more helpful and less dam
gerous stimulant. AS matter of
fact, alcohol and the serpent are
bosom friends, because they are both
arch enemies of mankind. The ser
peut S cnmity for mankind was eX-
posed in the garden of Eden. AL
cohol began its officially recorded
work of enmity at the time when
God gave the world a chance to be-
gin all over again, and begin right;
the only man in the world at that
time who was righteous enough to
be worth saving, with his family,
was promptly laid low by alcohol,
and Noah's drunkenness stains his
otherwise good record. The SER
pent wrecked Adam, and alcohol
wrecked Noah; it is not surprising to
learn that alcohol is not such an en-
envy of the serpent as we had sup
posed.

prepared for dinner by the good
ladies. At noon an abundance oil
alFkinds of good things to eat, com
bined with the fish was spread on
a long table. After dinner the
crowd gathered in che house where
thry listened very attentively to
the eloquent address of Rev. A. q.
Ferguson of Leakesville on Boys
Corn Clubs and Farmers Unions.
The town of Leakesville should feel
proud that it possesses such a man as
Mr.. Ferguson. Would that our
county was only filled with such
men, as he is always ready and will
ing to do everything in his power
for the upbuilding of his country
Great preparations had been made
for the occasion, especially by the
Union people, desiring that no de
tail should be neglected. Each and
every one went away in the after
noon rejoicing over the glorious day
spent at Brushy Greek, saying 1T
would be remembered as long as we
were permitted to exist.

PRAISE BY AN OLD PATRON.
First National Bank of Commerce Of
Hattiesburg.
Wavnesboro News-Be2ccn.

Wavnesboro wS-Be2ccn.
The Editor has just received one
of the quarterly statements OF the
First National Bank of Commerce,
of Hattiesburg, Mississippi, the old
Reliable, as they say in tnat com
munity. The assets, as shown by
this statement, represents the mag
nifcent total of 81, 309, $4,000. We
once had the pleasure of doing bus
mess with it, and though we moved
away and closed our account, we
have continued to receive its state
ments from time to time They do
not forget old friends, and the fact
that they feel a kindly interest in
all, and are not forgetful of past
favOrs, is doubtless the virtue
which has caused the public to take
notice, and create fOrit its large de
post account. This bank has always
sought the rank and file for its
friends, realizing that a number of
small deposit accounts are of greater
value than few large ones, and it
has been greatly benefited by push
ing Banking by mail. " This is
is the spirit all banks should cult
vate as it tends to cause all class
es of people to save and carry bank
account. A bank account is sign
Of thrift. (Pay-Mtr,)

A BORROWED EFFU.GENCE.

Those who live moral lives out

morality from the church without

Those-who are held~up as examples
OF whata man. can be without being

that Christian father and mother
can give to their boy momentum

SCHOOLS MUST TEACH HEALTH NOW.
There is no excuse for Developing
the Mind and Neglecting the Body

Generation after generation, ever
since there were such things as
schools, we have been sending our
children to school to have their
minds trained. Generation after
generation there have been stupid
pupils, sickly pupils. pupils with
poor eyes, unruly pupils, pupils that
have died We have mourned over
these, or stormed at them After
more centuries than are creditabIe
to us we naYe at LAST begun to find
out some vital facts concerning the
children we have mOurned and .orm-
ed about. Often it is l.oj thcl,' fault
but ours. We have not given them
the right kind of schools. We have
been having their minds cared for,
but not their bodies Proper san
itary precautions and medical super
vision have both been lacking Con
seqently each generation OF school
children has reaped it's awful harvest
of shattered health, contagious dis
eases and death. Furthermore, we
have learned that large portion vi
cases of stupidity and unruIineos are
due to nothing in the world but The
child S physical conditiOn-adenoids,
bad teeth, eye trouble and other
ailments, many of which have hitL-
erto seemed of no real Importance
whatever.
Meantime millions OF lives have
been blighted or twisted awry-need-
lesSly. Meantime countless children
and grown people have died before
their time. If the statisLician we're
to get busy and could have the real
facts to work from, he would COM
pute the money values of the years
lost or half lost to the world in each
of these cases.
This really need not be. 1t was
because of human ignorance, but it
need not be any longer. We know
why now. And you can see that
your schools do their part if they
will
All you nave to dois to ask ques-
tions. If you ask often enough and

We cheerfully insert the above in

we have no desire to put out the

that the petition was an inspired
movement, and we had some grounds
to think so, as it was being clrcylat-

to town, out it now appears from
his and the statement of the circula-
