Portrait Pain'ei In Par:s.

The Jackson friands Of the
Kincannon and George families
will be interested to learn of the
recent high compliment paid Miss
Frankine Kincannon by a prom
inent woman artist in Paris, in
the beautiful protrais painted
by this gifted woman of which
Miss Kincannon was the subject.
Drawn to her by the dainty
grace of the young Mississippian
this artist asked her to pose for
the protrait, which is now COM
pleted and pronounced a great
success.
Miss Kincannon with her aunts
Misses Katy Boyd and Anna
George, is spending this year
in Paris where in the famous
Latin Quarter they are keeOlng
house in a charming little flat
and in the intervals of their
study modern languages and
music being their specialties-
they dispense a gracious hospi-
tality to their friends which has
lost nothing of the Southern
grace or wholesomeness by their
long absense from home.
Miss Kincannon will return to
America in April and Miss Anna
George will run over in June, re
turning in the autumn for anoth-
Ter year of the work in which her
heart finds such joy-and from
the results Of which her friends
will be the gamers also. JIck-

Visit to West Point.

On Friday last Mayor Robins
and the publisher of the Journal
visited our wide-awake neighbor.
West Point, with the view OF
investigating the improvements
which that little city has made
during the past few years.
The first thing that attracts
the attention of a visitor to West
Point is the streets. The entire
business section has been laid
with tar macadam and has proven
entirely satisfactory to the city.
Next is the new City Hall,
which is model for any town
that needs new one. The ar
rangement is complete in every
detail. The clerks office, the
police justice room, the hall with
a seating capacity of approx
mately 300, the fire department,
the city Jail, are all under one
roof and complete in every de-
tail.
The structure is of white brick
with a stone front, with steam
heat throughout. The structure
is beautiful and the building is
an ornament to the city and
does great credit to those who
planned and erected If.
On the second floor several
Offices are provided which are
rented at good prices, bringing a
revenue which goes a long way
in paying the annual interest on
the bond.
In the afternoon We covered
the entire stretch of macad-
amized road running west. The
citizens feel a just pride in hav-
ing inaugurated a system Of
good r a Is which they will ex-
tend until they reach practically
every section of the county. This
road is laid with Tams. Illinois,
NauvacuIite.
It was our pleasure while in
West Point to visit the Leader
office where we met Mr.. Car
Isle, the publisher, and his ac-
complished wife. The Leader
office is an up to-date plant and
enjoys an extensive patronage,
which it richly deserves. The
Leader, as its name suggests, is
foremost in advocacy of all mat
ters Of public interest and the
improvements of the city have
been due largely to its untiring
efforts

Mrs. Sarah Edwards.


Mrs. Sarah Edwards died at her
home Sunday, Januard 8. She was
sick for several weeks. and her faith
ful physicians and loving hands did all
in their power to stay the kand of
death, but God saw fit to take her
sweet spirit from our midst. She had
been member of the Methodist church
from girlhood. Her remains were laid
to rest in Union cemetery, the services
being conducted by Rev. Yancy.
Mrs. Edwards leaves large circle
of relatives and friends to mourn their
loss. Her death is the cause of deep
regret by many friends who greatly
sympathize with the bereaved family.

Of laying the gravel, arrived the
past week and are here now

A large number of teams came
in from Tennessee a week age
and the force is being increased
every week.
Considering the time of year,
the work has progressed far be.
yond the calculation of the cor
tractors. and the commissioners
are highly pleased with the prog
ress made.
The commissioners have en-
ployed Mr.. L.. G.. Smith. an en-
gineer of ability and experience,
who will inspect every foot of
the work as it progresses. Mr..
Smith gained valuable informa-
ton as engineer on the Madison
county, Tennessee, roads and will
prove a very valuable man to
the commissioners.
The contractor, Mr.. Troy, has
had large experience and comes
with testimonials from every
place he has built roads or
streets.
Captain Keith, who is in
charge of the grading, has had
years of experience and will let
no grass grow ahead of him on
the right-of-way.
The work will be pushed with
all possible speed and the bus
mess which will come after its
construction will amply repay
the outlay on the part of Tupelo.
To the man who owns land along
the line will come the greatest
benefit. The advantages he will
have will practically place him
on the same footing with his
neighbor in town.
With telephones, daily mails.

cessible, the condition of coun-
try life will experience ,revo

who opposed the roads.
Those who have seen these
conditions elsewhere congratu-
late their friends and neighbors
upon the good fortune which will
come to them in being so pleas
antly located when the roads are
completed.
