", E.. Boushe in
The Race for Floater

The complex problems of life bring
the thoughtful man face to face with
many unexpected duties and obliga-
tions. That he rises to meet them,
shows that he is Of true metal and that
he possesses those distinctive elements
of character that go to distinguish, re-
gardless of what station in life he
may occupy. Great things are frequently
done by men in small affairs and in the
humber walks Of life. All these things
may properly be said of W. E. Boushe,
who desires the endorsement of the
people of Grenada and Montgomery
counties for fioater representative.
Mr.. Bousne had the misfortune to
lose his parents when mere child,
but he was fortunate in being largely
under the guiding care of that exam
plary citizen and his uncle, Rev. 7. B.
williamson, who instiled into him the
noblest principles of manhood.
Aside from this, Mr.. Boushe has
shown himself to be capable in bust
ness and is succeeding we'll on the farm.
He is we'll posted, and if elected, the
people may rest assured that he will
identify himself withno bill, or no meas
ure, at Jackson that he does not regard
helpful to the highest and best interests
of his constituents and the state at
large. He is worthy of the place he
aspires to fill.

"Among those SO announced and who

tinguished gentleman from Grenada, ;
Hon. S. A. Morrison, who it is OBJ
served from his home paper has form

election as representative from that

ion that the mere announcement Of Mr..

his fellow-citizens, and IL one of the
strongest and most resourceful 1eSisla=

years Mr.. Morrison has been the pre-
siding genius in matters pertaining to
appropriations and the expenditures of
the public funds, having been chairman
of the committee on appropriations,
and no more insistent and persistent
watchdog of the treasury has ex-
ercised that function than he. In fact,

itures Of the public money as has ]. D.

For Floatel Representative

Mr.. C. C. Provine enters the race for
fioater representative from Grenada
and Montgomery counties. Mr.. Provine
was reared on a farm in Calhoun
county. His educational opportunities
were good, and when re reached his
majority, he decided to practice law;
but after residence of two years in
Texas, he returned to his native state
and went back to rural life. The at
fractions of the farm overcame his am
bition in other lines. A little more than
a half dozen years ego he purchased a
very desirable piece of property just
beyond the limits of this city, which he
has much improved. He has made some
innovations in farming methods in this
vicinity. He has endeavored to be sci
entifc and to steer clear of beaten
paths. That he is persistent in his
methods, should prove that he is sue
ceeding. 1t Is but little trouble to fol-
low in the footsteps of others. 1t fire.
qaently takes more than average INTEL
Iigence and a commendable resolution
to proceed upon new lines. MIR. Pro-
vine IL the man capable Of doing
these things.
A ysaf ago he was fiiade president of
the Grenada County Farmers Union, in
which position he has met every ex-
pectation of his friends. He is a law
abiding citizen, is man of good NOR
ais and of excellent habits. He is oblig-
ing to his friends and is kind and con-
siderate neighbor, and in many respects
it would appear that he is just the man
to meet the requirements of the place
he seeks.
Mr.. Provine will no doubt thoroughly
ac4oaint the people with his views on
public questions before the primary.

GRENADA AND 1911
What the Outlook il for
Town and County. The
Banks, the Ice Plant
and NV. Farmers

The Sentinel learns that the receipts
at the postoffice in this city are consid-
erably ahead this postal year of what
they were this time last year. The
year closes March 81, and with the
present ratio of sales, the maximum
will run quite largely over SO, 900. This
is gratifying and not only speaks well
for Postmaster Miller and his efficient
deputies, but shows that business has
been good in Grenada, and that more
people are doing business with this
postoffice and that the future promises
to be still brighter. Only recently the
lower house passed an initial appropri-
alton of $4,000 to begin the work on
the postoffice building provided for at
the last session Of Congress.
With a large Ice plant, which is soon
to be in operation, three banks all lb q

of valuable farmers and good citizens
just settled in the county from the

Why is it that some people are SO
constituted that when standing on a
high building or at any upper story
window il is with only the greatest re-
straint that they keep themselves from
jumping? Why this desire to fling one
self to certain destruction? There are
other similar elements in other make
ups that are no less certain to bring
dire results.
One Of these comes in baseball, and
no fewer than three Of the real stars
of the two major leagues are victims
'of a strange force that may ulti'
mately lead them out of baseball
forever.
Ordinarily when batsman grabs up
bat and steps 10 the plate he Is

him. One that looks too close for com

hundreds of players this tendency, this

pitcher, cannot get out of the way
when they see pitched ball coming

him motionless. He Is aware of the
fact that the sphere is travelling
toward him, and he realizes his danger
but try as he will he is held motion
less. On several occasions Chance
has been cracked on the head, and with
bad results.
Jake Stall the Boston American
first sacker, who retired this season
had a stripe of the same whateverit-is

to the spot when the ball started for
him. He. too, felt chained to the ex
