 Although the Pierce Motor company Is the second oldest automobile concern Tn the United States, 1t was decided 10 change the name because of the added prestige and impetus which the Case com pany, with It's travelling force of 700 men, in addition to 5000 agents, now engaged Tn selling it's traction engines, will give the proposition The salesmen are engaged In every state In the union as well as in every foreign country where gram is grown, so that the new alignment Will mean the introduction of the Case auto mobile into every continent in the eastern and western hemispheres.

a study worthy the thought of the scien- tist.
 The blind foundering of the robust young spirit amid the tangle of profes- sions and walks of life is sometimes pitiable. It Is hard for most boys to de- eide If they will be policeman or presi- dent.
 But "Cullie" set bis eyes on no particu- lar star when he looked up from the baked furrows on his fathers farm and tried to pry open the fastenings along the horizon. He has visions of success in some great and honorable vocation. His blood was rich, his heart warm and his soul af1re with noble purposes, but he was not particular about the vehicle on which he should rise to eminence and usefulness among men.
 He would perhaps have laughed then at the idea that he would wind up as fer tilizer manufacturer and the mayor of the greatest industrial city in the south. He had practical contempt for fertilizer and possibly had a vague idea that mayors, like poets, are born, not made.

 After studying the field and the business

New Orleans, August 4.-Tn champion ing the case of Mamie Mclaughlin, 19 years old. who killed Hugh Smith, a wealthy saloon proprietor of New Or leans. the Era club, leading women s organization of Louisiana, has received pledges of support in it's efforts to clear the young woman from similar organi- zations in the south.
 In resolution adopted by the Era club last night 1t is declared: "Men have been invariably acquitted and justified in the eyes of the law on the grounds of the tnwritten law, and there Is no logical reason why this law should not apply to women."
 The Era club says that if Miss Mo- Laughlin is convicted they will carry an appeal to the federal courts on the ground that a jury of her peers was not se- cured, in the absence of female mem- bers of the jury.

 About three times in those early days changed my position for lower wages for the reason that I believed I was bet tering my opportunities for the future.' said MT Exum. My advice to any young man is not to have too much regard for the amount of his salary. He should seek that position that offers the best oppor- tunity for promotion and broader fields for the future.
 "A satisfactory salary has spoiled many a good man. He tolls on for a salary until he is worn out and can do nothing but work on salary basis. A small sal ary with some promise of future advance

LIGHT METERS
 FOUND CORRECT

Meridian, Miss, August 4.-(Special)- The charges recently made by R. J. Der ry, a private citizen, that the Meridian
 Light and Railway company was defraud- ing Its light patrons by the use of fraud ulent meters. were strongly refuted to-
 night in a report to the city boards by Clarence Reid, professor of electrical en- gineering at the Agricultural and Me
 chanical college. Immediately following the charges the boards requested the services of MT. Reid to make an investi- gation, which he did quietly, no one knowing he was in the city. His report shows that the meters used by the com- pany are of standard make and those found to vary at all did so in favor of the consumer and against the company.
