Candy Wasn't Saved.

Dorothy and Virginia, whose com
bined ages amount to ten years, are
twins and belong to an uptown moth
er who is proud of them, beyond
words. Nobody else can tell them
apart.
Yesterday kind lady gave Dorothy
two pieces of candy, one for herself
and the other to take to Virginia
Later the lady asked Virginia how she
liked the candy.
Something happened to it," vir-
ginia told her. Dorothy put it in her
mouth to save it for me and it Slip

Therefore in bowing TO the present
order of things, the Herald feels that
this county and Senatorial district
should send Vardamap men to the
Legislature if we return VardamQn
vote, or yica versa and from what we
can learn it will not be vice versa. In
other words we consider this expe-
dent and conductive to future har-
mony in the Democratic party in
Mississippi, remembering as we Go
the late action Of Tennessee in Legis-
lature assembled directly overriding
the voice of the majority expressed
in the Democratic primary for the
election of u United States Senator.
Mississippians let's don't tear our
selves to our hurt like the Greek re-
pubgics did and let the enemy get adj
vantage thcrcfrom, but as democrats
lets. do things after the democratic
fashion.

Throw 1t Away.

Stand up, little kid, with your c-
garette burned clean ul to your pro
fame lips. Do you know that the
poison you are so eager to infuso in
to every inch of your youthful hide.
may, before hundred years have
rolled over your head, make you not
only color blind, but blind as bat as
we'll? Nav" you didn't. Well
that is the next affliction we are
threatened with. The Scientific A.
merican says SO, and we have grown
in the habit OF relying upon that
stauuch sheet. In London, tobacco
blindness has become quite preva-
len, and instances are cropping out
on our own side of the pond, too.
Throw away your cigar and wait at
least until you have hundred and
eighty pounds of sound avordupois
to carry around before you begin to
stuff your skin with nicotine poison
Then maybe it will take you the rest
of your ratural lifetime to get enough
of the weed to put out your eyes and
plant a>malignant cancer on the root
OF your saucy little tongue. Your
grandfather smoked till he was eigh
ny did he, and chewed, too. Yes
and that is the reason you should let
it alone, at least until you are twen-
ty-ive. You were born with enough
poison IN your blood without begin
ming 10 stuff more down your throat
before you are out of the nursery.
Throw it away. Nobody expects ba-
bies to help pay the national debt.

The timber in Greene County as
we have oft edtorialized, is rapidly
vanquishing product. The mass of
the citizenry of our county are al
ready or are going to have 30 turn to
the soil for living. Ours is a coun-
ty penetrated by but few miles Of
railroad, consequently the transpor-
tation to market or shipping point
is q serious and growing problem
with us. The automobile truck is
swiftly invading the rural districts
which have good roads to quickly
and economically connect the small
farm with the depot or neartown
stores. Whether the products of our
small farmers will be born to market
IN a common wagon or autowagon,
its essential to the economy of such
transporting their stuff to where it
can be sold, that good roads inter
lace our county, and the quickest
and perhaps after all the cheapest
way to secure them is by the con
tract-b bond issue. Study over this
question with view to your own
individual interest.

MAYOR BECKER IS
BEHIND YARL| ING BILL
Senator Declares He Had
Not Examined Provisions
Of the Bill, However.

fndianaolis, Ind. Feb. 1T has de-
veloped that Mayor Becker, of Ham
mond is behind the bill introduced by
Senator Yarling, which would take the
power. of passing on contracts with
public service corporations out of the
hands of the city council and limit the
power of making sub contracts to
boards OF publ works and the mayors
The bill provides that the people
may demonstrate against contracts. but
a remonstrance must be signed by a
majority OF the freeholders of a city.
Senator Yarling said Mayor Becker had
explained the bill to him and had asked
him to introduce 1t, and that he had not
carefully examined its provisions.
Senator Yarling said he would oppose
any attempt to take the granting of
such contracts away from city councils,
which now must act on contracts along
with boards of publ works. Senator
Yarling does not think such a bill as
he introduced should apply to cities
of the first class. such as indianapolis.

TELEPHONE
COMPANIES
NEW SCHOOL

The Chicago Telephone company is
instituting a technical training school
in its exchange in Hammond.
This school is result of peculiar
conditions that rule in the telephone
world today. Recent years have
brought a phenomenal development of
the telephone and it's universal use by
the public. For months the dema nd
for skilled men has grossly exceeded
the supply The telephone company
has adopted the technical school, with
its superior facilities for study a.
solution of the problem.
Applicants who are accepted (there
will be no discrimination in the ex-
amination) will be paid a salary of
$40 per month while studying the
work. At the end of a six months
educational period the salary will be
advanced to $50 per month to those
who, by their own application and eff
forts, qualify themselves for regular

position. This viii permit students to
pursue their telephone studies while
drawing living salary. with the as
surance that they will gain a thorough
and practical knowledge of telephone
work
The rapid growth of the business of
the Chicago Telephone company in the
various towns and cities in its terri
tory contiguous to Chicago. is RESPONSE
bic for the creation by this company
of new department for the purpose
of training young men to fill positions
in this very interesting, complex and
wonderful business.
There has never been dearth of APP
plicants for positions with the tele-
phone company, but the high standards
of the Chicago company will not permit
of the employment of men who are
not naturally well fitted to those with
greater ones.
